Web Page Designs
A professional-looking website design is vital if you want visitors to take your business seriously. But a successful website is about more than just looks. Business websites must be easy to navigate, and attract high-quality traffic through careful search engine optimisation and promotion. Above all, your website must offer visitors a straightforward, rewarding experience that encourages them to become customers!
When you first approach me about designing your website, I will listen to your requirements and offer suggestions to help you think about the type of design that will appeal to your target market. I will also consider, right at the start, the sort of functionality that your visitors will need. If you don’t know one end of the internet from the other, I will guide you through the whole process painlessly.
Every website I design is absolutely bespoke – I don’t just knock up so-called ‘original’ designs from templates. If you have images and body text to supply me that’s super, if not I can create them for you. Once I have a detailed idea of what you need, I’ll create a draft design for your approval. Once you’re happy, the site design is coded for the internet. The length of time taken for any one project varies depending on its size and complexity. A typical website build takes about a month from commission to final completion. Smaller websites can take as little as a week with a fair wind. I understand the importance of timing to your business, so when you approach me with a brief I will do my best to give you an accurate estimate of the amount of time involved.
I’m always around if changes need to be made or new content added. If your site needs to be updated on a regular basis, I can also create an easy-to-use Content Management System (CMS) that allows you to make changes without any knowledge of the technical side of things. This site is a CMS based website.
I pride myself on creating websites with clean, search engine-friendly navigation and design. My websites are designed with your conversion rates rather than my portfolio in mind! I don’t just think about getting visitors to your site – I want them to visit your site and spend money!
