The WEB SERVICES I offer range from a simple audit of the clients current website design, and what issues they may be experiencing that is holding them back from being successful and getting in touch with their market to a platform migration to the most popular website development platform CMS – WordPress.

After presenting the information gathered during the audit phase of the project, each area is explained and I work with the client to find out how their business works and will incorporate that into the design and development of their website

The DESIGN SERVICES I offer ensure that you present the best impression to your customers, all your logos and graphical work need to be eye catching, sharp and present a clear message. I am sure you have browsed around the internet and landed on a website, a Facebook or Twitter page, and the images presented are confusing, blocky and ill fitting.

This can cause your visitors to “bounce” off the site, and you have lost any opportunity to connect with your visitor. I use industry leading technology including Adobe Photoshop, Indesign and Illustrator to create designs and logos for both digital and print.

I provide high quality PHOTOGRAPHY services. A good image can really raise your digital marketing presence and help convey your message to your audience.

I decided to add photographic services to my portfolio as I found the hassle of purchasing images off the internet a huge overhead as well as the unreasonable costs involved. I feel its better to present your own images about your business compared to “stock” images that don’t provide a valuable edge over your competition.

Once you have your website designed, and all your photos are added etc. then next thing is to tell the whole world about it and the way to do this is using SOCIAL MEDIA 

The number of platforms are increasing all the time, but I concentrate on the most useful and popular ones including Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, LinkedIn and YouTube. These are the largest platforms which include analytics which helps you understand how well your marketing is performing.

Social media is a great way to drive traffic to your business website, but your site also needs to be found in the major search engines, and this is achieved by configuring your sites Search Engine Optimisation (SEO). This is the most important part of your website development as you need your site to be found for any number of given search terms.

Unless you are a huge brand it is unlikely that your visitors will be searching Google and Bing for your brand name. Instead, they will be searching for the service they are looking for, and the SEO of the site has to provide your business as the answer to that search query.

Using and understanding ANALYTICS is key to growth and it informs you of areas that are performing well, and those that are not. It provides a huge amount of information such as what your visitors type into google to find you, so you can make sure these search terms are included in your SEO to ensure you are found.

Other details such as age, location and visitor numbers help you develop your site and steer it in the direction you need your business to grow. This is not the most exciting area of website design and development, but without it would be like trying to find a piece of coal in a completely dark room with a blindfold on.
