Areas of expertise

Our toolkit is large, and our team’s combined experience is extensive, from crafting small microsites to highly-functional integrated business platforms, we’ve got it covered.

Content Management Systems
When it comes to choosing your CMS, we always choose the more appropriate platform for your need. However, WordPress is typically our weapon of choice. Easily editable and cost-effective for you, WordPress offers our clients the ability to keep their site up-to-date at all times. To put it simply, it’s great and we love it.
Shopify
From startups to large corporations, Shopify is often the ecommerce platform of choice for many businesses. Whether you’re developing a new store or evolving an existing one for better performance, we harness the power of Shopify to help you get your products into the hands of customers. We can help develop integrations with your other business tools (ERP, CRM or PIM etc) so operations always run smoothly and seamlessly. We can also handle replatforming to Shopify from another system.
WooCommerce
Robust and reliable, and incredibly customisable, WooCommerce is a great platform for when you require more bespoke functionality. We build tailored solutions, allowing you to easily unlock the full potential of your online shop. If you currently have a WordPress site but want to start selling online, you can easily evolve the site with our help. We can also handle replatforming to WooCommerce from another system.
Bespoke Solutions
When an off-the-shelf solution doesn’t offer all the functionality you need, then a bespoke application is the way to go. These solutions are tailored to the exact needs of your business, just tell us what you need and we’ll get straight to work. We’ve developed sales portals, asset storage repositories, project management tools, specialist directory and much much more.
API’s / Integrations
An API is a mechanism by which two systems communicate and share information. A popular example would be integrating a payment gateway, for example PayPal, into your website to handle payments online. Our team has all the knowledge and experience necessary to develop bespoke solutions that meet your business objectives with security and efficiency at heart. In the past, we’ve worked with numerous Payment Gateways, CRMs, Social Media and more, alongside producing bespoke solutions to share product and sales information between eCommerce platforms and dedicated Product Information Management tools.
Conversion Rate Optimisation
We’ve always got our eyes on the same goal as you: increasing conversions. Working side-by-side with our other specialist, in-house teams, we look closely at your existing website to identify any gaps and improvements that could be made. Whether it’s landing pages, content personalisation or ecommerce, let us optimise your site, drive sales and exceed your targets.
Cyber Security
Keeping your website and data safe is at the core of everything we do. Committed to risk assessment and limiting cyber threats, we’ll implement and manage authentication systems to keep your data under lock and key. We’re always ahead of the game, managing threats and risks before they even appear. Essentially, we’re well-equipped to give you peace of mind that your site is always well-protected and secure.

Hosting

Managed WordPress
We’ll take responsibility in updating your site’s underlying core files and any third-party plugins, whilst fixing any breaking changes that may arise. Extended functionalities, such as web forms, ecommerce etc., will be frequently tested to minimise any disruption to both your business and audience. Your site will sit on its own virtual private server, be monitored for threats and downtime, backed up regularly and encrypt web traffic via SSL.
Bespoke Managed Packages
If your website needs a more bespoke hosting solution, we can provide you with a private virtual server that can easily be configured and scaled to fit the needs of your website. We can also help to maintain the site and provide varying levels of support to ensure maximum uptime for your website, minimising any disruption to both your business and audience.
Non managed
For those who prefer to handle their own maintenance, or for sites that can be hosted without the need for regular updates. We can provide you with a private virtual server that can easily be configured and scaled to fit the needs of your website.

Our Process

1. Discovery

For all projects, no matter the scale, we begin with a discovery phase. This can be complex or simple but always starts with a face-to-face workshop where we invite all the important people. We’ll initiate conversations around goals, functionality, design, imagery and content. This process involves first-in-class designers, developers, copywriters and marketeers to ensure the best solutions are offered.

2. Specification

Following Discovery, a detailed specification of the project is then created. This will contain all the important information required to deliver the project on time and within budget.

3. Content

A content strategy outlines your audience and how best to communicate what you need it to. This can take the form of copy, images or video, and our skilled in-house team can create and support as required.

4. Wireframe / User flows

We create wireframes to test and visualise the site plan and user flows. Wireframes typically do not include any styling, colour or graphics and the focus is on space allocation and content, functionalities available and intended behaviours.

5. Design

The design phase is when the project really comes to life. We take the wireframes and add the brand elements; colours, images and typefaces. This is presented as an interactive mockup for you to explore.

6. Development

Depending on the type and scale of project we either work using waterfall or agile methodologies. Either way, the concept of the development phase is the same, the code is written and a new website is created.

7. Testing

Once developed our new websites are thoroughly reviewed and tested by developers and designers against the specification and designs. This includes browser and device testing to make sure it looks great and performs well on all modern devices.

8. Training & Documentation

All our websites are provided with documentation to ensure you can manage your own content long after the development is complete. We provide face to face or remote training.

9. Post Project

Once your new website is live then we can support you as much as required and we are on hand if you need us.
