A different web design philosphy

Our starting point is to ask 'what is the purpose of this site?'. Though this may seem obvious, it is surprising how many websites seem unable to answer this question.

We believe the visitors you really want come for information, and maybe to buy, and it is paramount that they can get that information in the most natural and efficient way.

When making on-line purchases, they want to be able to understand the process, and get easy access to answers to their questions as they arise.

Effective design plus e-commerce

Our website design provides easy to use, information-rich pages, using specialised techniques to achieve:

• fast download speeds - no boring waits, no disappointed lost visitors just because they do not have the fastest connection
• widest possible compatibility - no one is left out because they don't have the latest version browser or plug-in
• understandable, structured navigation for speedy location of what they need
• local site search by keyword and text
• search-engine optimisation, submission and advice
• secure e-commerce with easy maintainance with no ongoing fees (except for optional real-time card processing).

We can also update and redesign existing websites to improve visual appearance and useability as required.
