My web design and development services
I specialise in designing and developing websites for small to medium
businesses. All of my sites are optimised to obtain the highest possible search
engine ranking.
I also provide an Internet Marketing service which will help increase your
visability within the search engines and help to promote your brand online.
Website Design and Development
Whether you're looking for a simple 5 page web design or a dynamic online shop,
I can provide my clients with affordable, high quality websites that will
perform for you and your business.
Standard brochure style web presence
This site is used
primarily to provide an on-line presence and is aimed at businesses whose
products or services are not ideally suited to the internet yet does provide the
company with a web presence and valuable web address.
Content Management System (CMS)
A Content Management System
(CMS) will
allow you to edit the contents of your website as and when you require with the
changes immediately reflected on your live website. This will allow you to
update your site with your company's latest news, events, product descriptions
and price lists for example - all in real time. You can also allow your
customers to search the website database for specific product information for
example. I have developed a bespoke solution with a clear and simple interface
that can be tailored to your specific requirements.
eCommerce online shopping cart
Our eCommerce system will allow you to sell your products or services online. This
will allow your customers to browse your product catalogue and add items to a
shopping cart before finally going to the check-out page where they can pay for
the goods by credit card or other method. With links to a payment processing
provider the customers credit card can be authorised and the transaction
processed ready for the goods to be despatched. We can set up all product
categories, descriptions and prices for a small additional cost. Our standard
comprehensive E-Commerce Solution can be tailored to your exact requirements to
enable your business to trade online.
SEO and Internet Marketing
In my experience there is no substitute for websites that contain good quality
relevant content and as the saying goes "content is king" - which is the
essence of good solid search engine rankings. With good content and a well
designed structure your website can gain high search engine visibility that can
be accomplished without having to spend a fortune on expensive online
advertising such as pay per click (PPC) campaigns like Google Adwords for example.
Search Engine Optimisation (SEO)
All sites that I design and build are fully search engine optimised (SEO) for the best possible
search engine ranking. This includes creating the correct page titles, meta tags
(embedded information that tell search engines about your web site), image
descriptions, header tags and most importantly ensuring your content is relevant
to your business and contains
the correct amount of keyword density.
Internet Marketing
I can also help your business with internet marketing services such as social
network marketing which will increase the visibility of your site online. This
will involve creating and maintaining Facebook, Twitter and Flickr accounts for
your business and continually updating the content within them for you. These
can then be used as channels for creating a buzz about your business for a new
product or service, telling your customers about newsworthy events or creating
informational content relevant to your sector that other businesses or your
customers may find useful. I will also write blog entries within my own website
about your business which will also help to increase search engine rankings.
All of this creates "buzz" which is basically what makes social network
marketing work.
Domain Name and Hosting
All websites require a domain name which is the address that you type into the
browser and also a place to sit on the internet - hosting. I can provide this
for you along any email accounts that you may require.
