Web design and development

Having a web site developed can be a daunting process, particularly if it is your first or for a new business. Good looks and user experience are always part of the package, however what goes on behind the scenes is just as important – does the site work well with the main search engines? Is it compatible with a wide range of web browsers, new and old? Can the site be quickly extended to grow with your business?

We can either update your existing site, or build a completely new one with our bespoke productivity tools keeping the development rapid and cost effective. We code to the latest W3C web standards so the site runs smoothly, and use the fastest PHP frameworks to make the pages fly off the server keeping your hosting costs low, search engines happy and thousands of visitors engaged.

When planning a site, one of the first decisions to make is which technology to use. People who wish to make frequent updates to a simple site themselves may wish to consider an off-the-shelf content management system (CMS) such as Wordpress which we used for Wiseman Industries. If you want us to look after the updates, perhaps on a more complex site that serves many locations, we have an advanced site management system custom made for the job.

One site or 1000 sites, no problem

If your business spans many locations or areas – such as in a franchise or multi-unit retail operation – we can deploy the Reveal Site Manager or RSM. This is a productivity tool which allows us to control many sub-sites serving your operational locations, each of which can contain its own information and have either a common template or unique design. News articles and fresh content can be added to individual, some or all of your locations very rapidly, allowing up-to-the-minute news and promotions – ideal for fast moving business environments.

Updates can be either carried out manually or set to occur at particular date and time – using this method content for whole campaigns can be chained together in advance so you know your promotions are going live at the right moment. Sites can be set up with a test area so you can see in advance what pages are going to look like with changes applied, once you are happy we can update the live site at the press of a button.
