Development ServicesWhen designing and building web sites we integrate strong design and content with ease of use functionality. We understand the importance of creating the right impression and strong online presence to compete effectively against the ever growing mass of competitive websites.

Web development - content

We will take your content and add this to your web site giving maximum impact and building search engine friendly pages.

A web site must have relevant and informative content, because content is the reason people visit Web sites, not for the pretty design or the sparkling flash animations, but for content.

If a Web site doesn't have high quality content, it won't have visitors!

Our web development will take your content and weave this into our well crafted web design giving your business the best web presence.

 

Web development - usability

Having a website is great, but without traffic and website visibility, it's not going to do a heck of a lot for your small business or startup - take some initial steps to boost your visibility with search engines, and watch your traffic.

For your Web site to be successful, users must visit the site!!. No matter what objectives you have set for your Web site, it must carefully balance the needs of users and the needs of your organization. If users don't find your Web site helpful, they will not use it.

Navigation is also vital for your web site. Having easy to use and clear menus will allow visitors to find the products or information they are looking for quickly.

 

Web development - visibility

Getting visitors to your web site is key to the success of your online business. There are a few main ways to increase your web sites appearance in search engines.

Use descriptive and informative text on each page of your website, choosing words (or Keywords) that relate directly to your product, service or industry.

Highlight and feature your most important content first, in a clear, uncluttered fashion.

Ask other relevant sites to link to yours. One measure search engines now use to measure your site’s importance is the quality, and, to a lesser extent, volume of outside sites that refer to your own.

Be sure to create distinct titles for each of the pages on your website, and use your keywords in the titles.

 Write descriptions that are clear, factual and free of excessive superlatives (best, cheapest, biggest). People prefer sites that are more factual and less “sales talk.”

If your geographic location is relevant, use it in your site and make it part of your list of keywords.

 

Web development - Content Management

We build content management web sites enabling you to add your own content keeping your web site up to date at a low cost.

We use Joomla, which is the world’ s most popular open source CMS (content management system), having over 2.7 percent of the Web. Its used by individuals, small & medium-sized businesses, and large organizations worldwide to easily create & build a variety of websites & web-enabled applications.

We take any design (or create one for you) and convert this into a Joomla template. This can then be used to build the site as required, but enabling the siter to be fully updatable once live.

 



We offer web design services in West Yorkshire covering Leeds, Bradford, Halifax, Huddersfield, and Wakefield.
