Getting started

Why have a web site?

In today's business climate all organisations, both large and small, need a web site. Up to 90% of potential customers will research a business on the internet before contacting them.

Whether you are a manufacturer, a small business run from home, or perhaps considering setting up a small business, a web site will bring new clients to your business and give you the opportunity to attract new business.

What can you have?

The simple answer is "almost anything".

We will spend time with you before we start design work, so we can understand your business and identify how a website or online solution can help you. No two customers are alike, so it is important that we deliver something that is exactly right for you.

Cost is usually an important factor, so we will discuss a range of options with you in order to arrive at a solution that you can afford and that will provide a return on investment that you are comfortable with.

The simplest websites have a single page that describes your business to potential customers, together with contact details and any other information needed to describe company. In effect this can be seen as an online brochure.

Most customers have pages containing additional information for customers, such as brochures or price lists that can be downloaded, testomonials, or photo galleries of work completed for previous clients.

If you want to take orders or payments over the internet then we can include an e-commerce solution from PayPal or Google Checkout within your website.

"The internet is now thought to be the first port of call for around 80% of people when looking for a product or service, and having a website carries with it a range of benefits, such as adding legitimacy to your business in the eyes of your customers and clients."
