We design the 'look and feel' of the web site, the graphic layout of the pages and the underlying structure of the site. We listen closely to our clients at the briefing stage, make creative suggestions and present working mock-ups for approval. Our attention to detail extends to consideration of how each page will look when printed.
|
We research and write original text, drawing on experienced writers and editors. We can also incorporate content supplied to us by our clients, which we can restructure and edit if required. We can optimise text to help your site get near the top of searches.
|
We commission photography in-house, ensuring that the photographic images closely support the text. We produce high-resolution digital images, allowing excellent clarity on the screen and good printed reproduction. We are also happy to work with images supplied by others, provided that the quality is adequate for web reproduction.
|
We commission actors for voice commentary and use professional scriptwriters. We record, mix and engineer audio using mobile studio facilities. We can record on location or at our own premises. We commission composition of background music specifically for your project.
|
Our maps are interactive, allowing access to many layers of information linked to a database. We can draw maps and plans to your specification. We also make extensive use of Google Maps.
|
Drawings and animations can enliven a website, increasing its appeal, especially to children. They are useful tools for educational websites. We will carefully select the right artist to suit the job in hand.
|
Our Content Management System is a robust, tried-and-tested system, developed in partnership with our clients so that it is simple to use by non-experts. It is in daily use by hundreds of people. It is a modular system particularly designed to work with multi-media material such as audio clips, images and maps. It runs under Windows ASP NET and SQL Server 2008. We can host your web site on our servers in a local secure datacentre.
|
We test your site on our bank of test machines on the latest and recent versions of common browsers, including Internet Explorer, Firefox and Safari. We run automated validation and accessibility tests. We can organise user testing and focus groups as required.
|
Not everyone has the inclination or the expertise to manage their website. A website needs to be fresh, contemporary and relevant. For a monthly fee we will keep your site up-to-date, removing obsolete and adding new material as required. Alternatively, if you have the capacity to maintain your own website, we can build your site on our user-friendly content management system.
|
We design our web sites to maximise your potential of being found quickly via a search engine. We offer a monthly SEO service where we check continuing relevance of key search terms, make changes as required to key search words, changing words in text as required, testing to see if rankings improve.
