Services

We're a one stop shop.

If you haven't built a website before, it can be a daunting process. No worries - you're in safe hands. We can help you with every aspect of building your website from writing your text, photography and logo design through to website design and development.

We design websites

Design is what sets us apart.

We're often complimented on our consistently beautiful, memorable and easy to use websites. All our web sites are custom designed and tailored to branding with meticulous attention to detail.

• Winelands Villa Rental villa near Cape Town
• White Glove, LondonConcierge web site
• Rococo Green, London Interior Design web site

 
Why do you need a professionally designed website?

• Good design communicates effectively, bad design confuses the user.
• Good design inspires, bad design embarrasses.
• Good design sets you apart from your competitors, bad design doesn't.

Most importantly, your website gives an impression of whether you're here for the long haul or fly by night and whether you can be trusted or not.

We're proud of our sites and our customers are too. Take a look

We build websites

Regardless of whether you need a personal/start-up web site, or you're a small or large business that needs a professional e-commerce web site or Content Management System (update the site yourself), we have the experience and skills to create a professional web site that works.

We offer a variety of packages based on the number of pages you need. If you need a Content Management System (CMS) or an E-Commerce website, we'll tailor a package according to your requirements.

Most importantly, we can tailor a package to suit your budget by suggesting ways to work within your budget.

We re-design existing websites

Is your site embarrasingly outdated? Was it built by a friend who did a 2 week web design course? Maybe your business has grown and your web site needs to more accurately reflect the change in your company. Take a look at improvement in the following two websites. Let us help you build a web site that you can be proud of.

We design and build HTML Email Newsletters

HTML email newsletters are a great way to keep in touch with your customers, which can lead to repeat business.

We custom design HTML email newsletters tailored to your branding. In addition we provide all the tools to allow you to update and create newsletters yourself. With access to the online administration area, you'll be able to create and send newsletters, manage subscribers, see who opened newsletters, view reports and much more.

Here's what one of our customers, Dr Anne Moir, said after she sent out her first newsletter 'campaign'

"Hi Lee,
I have just looked on line at the analysis of today's Newsletter mail shot - that is awesome - and I don't use that word often!
We even know just who has opened their mail and what they have done!
The reaction and response is very very positive too.
Have a great weekend and thanks so much for a fabulous job.
Warm regards,
Dr Anne Moir, Brainsex Matters"

Website Maintenance

Has someone built your web site and disappeared into thin air or are you having to beg them to update your website? Hand it over and we'll do the updates for you...quickly and efficiently.

If we've built your web site then we're set up and ready to update your site whenever you need. Just email the changes and we'll get straight onto them.

Copywriting/Proofreading

Need help with writing the web site copy/text?

Not everyone is a talented writer or has the time and inclination to write the copy for their web site. If this sounds like you then we can personally recommend a highly talented copywriter, experienced in writing copy for web sites. She's based in London and has worked with us on several successful projects in the past. Hiring a copywriter will streamline the process and save you time and stress. Contact us and we'll send you her details. Add this to the top of your list and book the copywriter in advance. On that note...bookmark this web site now!

Photography

If you're selling products we highly recommend that you have professional photographs taken. Photographs can make or break a web site so it's worth budgeting for this. If you intend to feature staff members then we'd also recommend having professional photo's taken. Just let us know if you need us to personally recommend a photographer.
