Website & Interface Development

Your website is your public face on the World Wide Web. You need it to make a good impression with your users. As well as being fully functional, good interface design and ease of navigation is vital. All of the websites I build use code that conforms to the latest standards and are fully cross browser compatable. You have the option of providing me with a design to work from or liasing with me so that I can design your website myself to meet your exact needs. Blogs, landing pages, contact forms, image and video galleries, database front ends, headers, and anything else you may require.

Content Management

Website owners should be able to control what is displayed on their site as quickly and easily as writing and saving letters in a word processor. Whether it be text, images, audio or video, you should be able to change what you want, when you want. All websites I build come complete with a content management system that will allow you to do all of this and everything else you'll ever need. I will even customize the CMS interface however far I have to until you tell me you that feel comfortable using it to manage your website.

Managed Web Hosting

Web hosting can be confusing if you've never done it before. I can take the hassle out of it for you. I will set your site up on a server from one of the leading hosting providers in the industry, after I have identified the best hosting package for you based on your website's individual requirements. I will then configure it to do whatever you require, from hosting of the site and assosiated email accounts to database support, security measures and automated backups. Let me take care of all the leg work involved so that you can get on with running your website.

Ecommerce

Does your website need to function as an online store with electronic payment processing? Does it need a database of products for users to browse similar to what you see on eBay or Amazon? Do you want your users to interact with the website from within their own secure accounts? No matter how big or small in scale, the fundemental aspects of Ecommerce websites are easy to implement with access to the right tools. I can make your website a fully functional online store ready to handle the buying and selling of products and services, including any security needs and conforming with all legal requirements.

Search Engine Optimization

Type something into Google and you'll get millions of results. You'll want your website to appear as high as possible in those results for searches into something related to the topic of your website or the services you offer so that you can attract visitors. I don't feed people misinformation or rumours, or make claims of magical solutions that will get you to the top of Google in a week. My SEO strategy consists of tried and tested on site and off site measures devised and recommended by experts that I can guarantee will significantly improve your sites' positioning in the rankings of all major search engines.

Email Marketing

There's no need to re-invent the wheel. There are email marketing methods and tools that work, and ones that don't. Tired of trial and error? My email marketing solution incorporates only things that are shown to have helped businesses achieve success with their email marketing campaigns. Using great looking HTML templates, tracking your emails to a clients' inbox, just getting the emails where they need to be and when, all these things and more are important. Whether starting a new campaign or improving your current one, I can assist you.
