How we Work
In these challenging times, affording a new website can be daunting, especially if you are trying to get a new venture off the ground.
We know, we have been there.
So we do things differently.
Unlike most companies, we do not ask for payment for building your website upfront.
HOW IT WORKS
We only require the first years hosting and the cost of a new domain name as an initial payment. The cost of designing building and maintaining the site is then split into 12 monthly direct debit payments.
In the first 12 months we include updates and alterations. We also keep the site updated for SEO with Google and other search engines.
After 12 months the site is yours. It can be simply and easily passed over to you for you to do your own updates and maintenance if you feel confident.
Or, you may want to do what most people do, and carry on with the monthly payments and let us continue with the updates, maintenance and SEO work.
Websites do require very regular SEO work and updates to maintain high Google rankings. You cannot build a site, leave it and expect it to feature high in Google rankings - it won't.
We have designed sites in the past with Dreamweaver, WordPress, Seriff, etc.
But these were of no use if you, the client, wanted to take over and maintain the site yourselves.
So we now use Wix online for all of our websites. This is so that after 12 months you can take control and maintain the site yourself if you so wish. We are more than happy to continue maintaining and updating your site ourselves, it is totally your decision.
All our sites are built to be responsive to any size screen and also to work on mobile devices, which is a lot of additional, but necessary, work.
