Tidying an Existing Site
If you have an existing site which has got a bit messy behind the scenes, this can affect your search results, and make updating and changing pages more difficult. Do not fear as help is on hand! I can create style templates and tidy up existing pages to enable your site to become simple to update and acceptable to search engines, helping you climb the search engine results, thus ensuring your website is appearing well in search engine results.
Website Marketing
There are several different options to market your site, and depending upon your budget there is an option for everyone.
search engine submission
link exchange with similar/related websites
optimised search engine submission
There are pros and cons to each form of marketing, and depending upon your site, its purpose and your budget, different options will suit different sites. Additionally you should consider local and/or national printed marketing to supplement your e-marketing.
Website Design & Maintenance
Websites are a good way of attracting new
customers, promoting your events, enhancing your reputation, communicating your events or products and even as a way of
keeping in touch. However, poorly designed sites can have the opposite effect so it is essential that you have a clear,
concise, inviting website that sells your business/service to its full potential.
I pride myself in offering a friendly service, taking on board all ideas and suggestions, putting these together with my technical and design knowledge and suggesting a solution. Whilst I will listen to your ideas, if something won't work for any reason, I will take the time to explain this, and suggest alternatives (for example if a colour scheme is not appropriate, a layout will not work with the required content, etc).
All sites I produce are created using CSS style sheets for a fully accessible, compliant website and are validated to ensure compatibility.
Web Design Experience
I've been involved in web design for the past 3 years and in that time have taken it upon myself to learn as much as I can. I started off with my own personal site and have since gone on to work on a few of external sites including this one, and one for The Chocolate Lounge, an LGBT bar in Kennington, London and The Glass Bar, a women’s members venue in London.
I can produce anything from a one page information site to a multiple-page website to inform your customers of your product. I can tailor the site to your requirements.
All my websites are CSS compliant.
For all customers I go through the following stages:
discuss the purpose of the website, the target audience, requirements, budget
research similar websites to see what the competition is offering
draw up a proposal of what the site could look like, discuss and make changes where necessary
create the desired website to your set budget and time frame
