Web Design Company - UK website design based in Lincolnshire, UK.

› Bespoke Website Design

It is crucial that your web site immediately creates the right impression when someone visits. We produce web sites which are aesthetically pleasing and, importantly are functional and effective for the purpose they are intended to serve. A "Bespoke" website is basically a website unique to your Company/Service (as opposed to Template web design.)

We work with you to create the look, feel and functionality that best suits your business/service/product. From a Brochure website design to a fully blown database solution.

We offer a NO OBLIGATION initial webpage design, so you can get an idea of how your website will look. From this stage we make any changes to the design and structure, if then you are happy with our approach and design, we move forward, if not, we part ways, no hard feelings...

Please feel free to contact us with any queries or questions.

› Content Management - update your own website

With a backend content management system, you can have full control over the content of your website. From a simple to use online control panel, you can login and update the content on your website. From simple textual changes to uploading your own Images, if you have the time and require more control over your site, this system is excellent.

Below are some example of websites that use fully integrated CMS systems - allowing textual changes, image and file uploads:

› Domains & Hosting

Another crucial aspect to the web design process is your level of hosting.

There are many "Cheap" and even free hosting options out there. These are simply false economy, you will have little control over your hosting, limited support, if any at all, and you will end up with a website that is next to useless.

Our professional hosting packages can incorporate a single webpage up to high bandwidth websites, prices starting from as little as £120.00 per anum, an example package includes:

• Web space - unlimited
• Monthly bandwidth allowance - up to 30GB
• POP3 Mail boxes - as many as required
• IMAP Email boxes
• Webmail - access your email from any computer at any time
• Website statistics
• Enhanced Virus & Spam
• Email aliases
• Email autoresponders
• MYSQL 4.1 and 5.0 Databases
• PHP 5
• SSL Server Enabled

Domain name registration prices vary, for example if you can't find the popular .com or .co.uk for your business, then you may consider a .info or a .biz for example. A typical domain name registration price would be £15.00 for 2 years for a .co.uk and £15.00 for 1 year for a .com.

› E-commerce

› Secure Shopping Cart
Customers can use a shopping cart to choose items and then enter their credit card details when the order is placed. E-mail confirmation is sent to both you and your customer as each order is placed. The credit card details are kept on a secure server for you to retrieve at the end of the day. This is the most popular method for smaller on-line businesses.

Note: Credit card details are never sent via e-mail for security purposes as required by most merchant accounts.

› Online credit card processing
Customers can use a shopping cart to choose items and then enter their credit card details when the order is placed. E-mail confirmation is sent to both you and your customer as each order is placed. The credit card order is processed on-line at the time of the order. This is ideal for larger on-line business where many transactions a day are made.

› Paypal
Is much more flexible than it once was. Ideal for selling single items or downloadable products.

› Maintenance/Support

We pride ourselves on our easy going, informal and flexible approach. If we build a website for you, we will always be there to support you, no matter what level of design you require.

From experience we've found some customers prefer us to maintain their website. More often than not so they can get on with what they do best and leave us to it. Depending upon the level of maintenance you require we charge a small monthly fee which we can tie in with your hosting costs.

Sometimes it's just not feasible for us to maintain a site, for example if you have daily news/product updates, or require word doc or pdf uploads that constantly change. We recommend a content managed website in these circumstances.
