Your web site will be delivered to your exact specifications using any graphics or art work you may already have, choose from over 60 templates from our website demos with some alterations to suit your needs or I can develop custom graphics for you. Of course, the top priority is to develop a fast loading web site that is also visually appealing. Below are frequiently asked questions [FAQ] that may help you decide wether a web site could be your solution to improve your company, organisation or personal work.

Do We Really Need a Web Site?
"Why do we want a web site?" If you are thinking this, then I would simply ask you some questions:
Do you advertise in the traditional media?
Do you have a brochure or other promotional material?
Would you like potential customers or investors to have easy access to information about you?
Would you like your products or services publicised world-wide?
Would you like to sell products or services online?
If your answer to any of these questions is "Yes" then you should have a web site.

We'll Deal With It When We've Got Time
...and in the meantime, your competitors will be gaining a commercial advantage over you. There's never a good time to carry out marketing: it's no use waiting until the work dries up before you do it, and yet when you should be marketing, you're just too busy. If you already have promotional material such as a company brochure, I can take that and turn it into a proper web site in very little time at all. Realistically, the more content you want for the web site, the longer it will take; but even for the most complex of sites, I would be planning on having your site up and running within weeks rather than months - the quicker you provide the copy, the quicker the site gets put together.

Why Should We Choose yourself?
Nowadays, it seems that everyone knows someone who can design a web site. I would be dishonest if I didn't acknowledge that anyone who is fairly computer-literate can write some text and paste some clipart onto a page and call it a web site. But the problem with that approach is that the code generated can be very sloppy, incomplete and slow to load. Your other option is to go with a big company to design and construct your web site, but that could cost at lot of time and money before you get to see your end product. Why then should you choose a professional web design company? The answer lies in what kind of web site your business should have - poor marketing or presentation reflects badly upon your business and an amateur-ish or poorly-designed web site will not present the corporate identity you've sought so hard to establish.

How Will Our Site Look To Visitors?
You need to ensure your web site looks just as good in any browser such as Internet Explorer, FireFox, Chrome, Safari or Opera for PC, MAC and now smartphones such iPhone and Android phones. You also need to ensure that the text and graphics load as quickly as possible so as not to deter visitors to your site from staying for a good look around. I will discuss with you your target market and demographic and code your pages accordingly: that's why you're paying professionals - to do a professional job.

How Will Visitors Find Out About Our Site?
Firstly, I would suggest that you publicise the web site address (URL) yourself: include it on letterheads, stationery, business cards, brochures and traditional advertising and don't forget to tell your Clients and Customers! Secondly, I can promote your web site on the Internet itself. There is more to the process than meets the eye and it is an ongoing process. There are thousands of search engines, news groups, banner advertising firms, link exchanges and the like, most of which will not be appropriate for your business. I can advise you on how your web site should be promoted and then I can carry out that promotion for you. Facebook, Twitter, My Space and other social networks are a very popular way to promote your website.

There are companies guaranteeing your web site's positioning in the top ten listings on the major search engines. I do not: your site's listing is quite frankly a matter for those search engines and no-one can provide an absolute guarantee about the placement of your site in the rankings as it will vary from day to day and from search engine to search engine.Each search engine (Google, Yahoo, Bing, ASK etc..) has its own criteria for ranking web sites and strict rules which must be followed to ensure your site is not removed altogether. I will publicise your web site as part of the initial design service to the major search engines, relevant news groups and social networks.

What Happens After The Site 'Goes Live'?
This is another reason to choose a professional freelance web designer for your site. Will the 'friend of a friend' still be there after the web site is finished to update it, extend it and even redevelop it for a new look? My ethos is to develop long-term relationships with my Clients - it's good for me and it's good for your business.

Why Shouldn't We Just Use The People Who Do Our Brochures?
There is an often-quoted mantra - "The Web Is Not Print" - that really does apply to designing web sites. I've seen too many sites originally written for printed media and then ported to the web with no thought for image sizes, bloated HTML, missing META and ALT tags, etc. The crossover between web and print is more difficult than you may think. Our view? I don't dabble in print advertising because we know web design. It's a pity more media design companies don't stick to what they know...

What If I Wanted To Show My Site To Someone Who Doesn't Have Internet?
A big way to enhance your company or organisation is to have your web site available to people who do not have internet access! The solution simply is to have your new web site transfered onto an electronic business card. Without getting technical, it is possible to have your website on a C.D in the shape and size of a business card. This is called 'E-Business Cards' and they can be accessed by most computers without the need of being conected to the internet but it would look identical to your actual web site.

OK, How Much?
Every website has a unique affordable price depending upon the complexity, number of pages, graphics, etc. Every client's web site is unique and personalised to meet there needs. Our advice is to sit down with a pen and pad and map out your vision of your site. Then call or e-mail myself to set up an initial consultation and we can take it from there, giving you a budget price or quotation for your web site. We also offer set packages with details of price and what is included, please check price & packages
