What Do We Do, Exactly?

Well, everything really. That may be a slight exaggeration but our collective experience gained from working for such companies as Royal Doulton (ecommerce development and design, SEO, and marketing) and Musicians Friend (ecommerce design and marketing), along with a host of other companies (see our portfolio section) means that we have a great deal to offer you.

What’s more, we understand how creative and development of front and back end work together in harmony to best gain results.

Web Development and Design

We’ve built sites in all fields, from ecommerce to commercial radio, from huge multi-national sites to small portfolio sites. We work within the guidelines of current best practice and web standards and can produce high-quality websites that are both accessible and visually engaging.

The links below are large-scale sites that we have worked on as part of permanent employment (in contrast to contract projects). They are listed here as an example of the type of projects that we have been responsible for.

SEO (Search Optimisation)

Organic search results and positioning (i.e., not SEM, PPC or any type of paid search marketing) are essential to any business. It can seem like a daunting task but we can simplify it greatly – most of search optimisation involves plain common sense and best practice. The rest: keyword research and analysis to choose the keywords best targeted to your business, and then applying them to meta data, titles, and in your copy, which has to relate closely to your target keywords.

Information Architecture and Interaction Design

This is a complicated area with a very simple explanation: making it easy for your customer to get what they want. Whether it’s laying out a product catalogue for a large ecommerce site so that a customer can browse for a product and find it in the fewest number of clicks possible, or imparting information in a way that is clear and easy to understand (as in elearning); we’re experts in making sense for people and for sites. You might think of it as “the Mum factor”. Could my mother navigate a site and buy product without getting confused or lost? Job done.

Email Campaigns and Direct Marketing

Email that gets opened, and email that generates click-through: talk to us. We can create campaigns that drive traffic to your site and will help with advice on current best practice.
