The obvious answer is “Everybody has a Web presence – So we needed one” Right!

Well maybe, but why do you need a web presence?

A Web presence normally takes the form of a Website and is a shop window into your business world and a great way to communicate with your customers and advertise your business to a world connected to the web.

We already have a social media presence, isn't that enough?

Having your own website gives your business a professional online presence that you control.

Unlike social media, a website allows you to present your brand, products, services, prices, contact details, customer reviews and other important information in exactly the way that you want.

It also makes your business easier to find through search engines such as Google, allowing customers to find you right at the moment they are actively searching for your products or services.

A website can also help build trust and credibility, particularly for customers who may want more information before deciding to buy. All of our websites are protected by secure SSL certificates and provide identifying information in the way you want.

Relying only on social media can be risky because platforms can change their algorithms, rules or features, at a moment's notice, which may reduce how many people see your posts.

A website gives you a permanent online location that you own and can develop as your business grows.

We also use analytics to understand how visitors find your business and what they are interested in.

Social media is still valuable for engaging with customers and promoting content, but using it alongside a website gives a small business greater control, credibility and opportunities to attract and convert customers, especially in an environment where trust in social media alone is waning.

Can't I just use AI to create my site?

A human-generated website can provide a more authentic and personal representation of a business than one created entirely by AI.

We will work with you to understand your business's individual goals, target audience, values and brand identity, then make creative decisions based on that understanding.

A human-built website can also be more carefully tailored to usability, accessibility, performance and long-term business requirements.

We will also test your design and code across different devices rather than in a simulated virtual environment.

As the saying goes, you don’t get a second chance to make a first impression, so make sure your website is easy to navigate, accurate and actually provides the service required of your customers.

Develop Specification

We will work closely with you to develop and agree a specification that will enable us to start the design and build of the website.

 

Web Management Package

We will ask you a few questions that will enable us to recommend the most appropriate Web Management package.

 

Project Management

We will offer you a single point of contact for managing the project.

We will agree a work schedule, detailing the activities and assigned owners with projected completion dates to meet an overall estimated completion date for the website to go live or a phased go-live.

We will provide regular updates on progress.

We will provide a ‘work-in-progress’ website that only you can see, so you can check on progress on-line and trial the website before going live.

We will act on your behalf to purchase the relevant domain name or manage the transfer of your registered domain name and provide one of our Web Management packages, alongside any other utilities you may need to get your site up and running.

We have worked with businesses, charities, and NGOs of many sizes to deliver their desired online presence and goals. We will be more than happy to discuss your requirements and deliver a quote.

Please let us know your contact details and a short description of your requirements and timescale.
