to design your own website, or get someone else to design it, we will convert it to a working website and vice versa. Lastly, if you have an existing website you’re happy with but need help with up keep, we offer website maintenance as well.
Website Design and Redesign

The first step in creating a new website is the design. We guarantee our designs are created completely new for your company brand image; we will never use a pre-made template design so you can rest assured your website will be unique in every way. Once we receive your brief, we proceed to create your new design which will be put online to proof and includes 3 revisions for the client to make design changes until they are happy.
Website Development.

Once the client is happy with their new design (or in some cases when a client supplies a design created elsewhere), we proceed to build in valid HTML and CSS. In layman’s terms, we take the design from a flat image to a full-working built website. Website development also includes additional website functionality, such as interactive galleries, contact forms and even simple things like drop-down menu’s.
Website Population.
Website Maintenance

The final step in the creation of a brand new website is populating the site i.e.. the adding of your text and photo’s. This is charged per hour, so you can be sure you’ll only pay for what you have. The smaller the website, the less hours taken to populate, the less you pay and vice versa. This is an important step in determining our quotations and the reason why we cannot quote on the spot. Please contact us should you require a full quotation that suites your needs.
Website Maintenance.

This service includes the upkeep of websites, in other words, when your website is complete and you need additional updates such as a phone number changed or an article added. We can set up a monthly website maintenance plan or charge per hour as needed Server Page Design this is our extra design service that includes work that normal website design charges do not cover.

We offer the following at a set rate:
Under Construction Page, includes your branding and contact details
Custom 404 Pages for broken links, displayed instead of broken pages

WordPress is a platform known as a CMS (Content Management System). Basically these type of platforms allow clients to maintain their own websites (if they wish) which eliminates website maintenance costs. It is also more dynamic than a standard static website. WordPress websites is our best-selling product with the best results in terms of usability and maintenance. It is also very SEO-friendly, of course.
WordPress Design and Redesign.

WordPress designs are implemented through themes. A lot of sites sell pre-made themes and this makes WordPress problematic for people who want a unique design. We are one of the few WordPress design companies that offer completely unique WordPress themes. We build our designs on the Thesis platform and tailor it to your needs. Our service guarantees a unique design no one else will have. If you have an existing WordPress website, we can design and implement a new theme for your website.

Pre-made WordPress Themes.

We offer pre-made themes as well which are cheaper than our unique WordPress designs, however, this means other people can purchase and use the same theme. We highly recommend businesses do not go for this option, however if you have a personal website or blog where you’d just like to share your thoughts without paying a fortune, you can purchase one of our pre-made WordPress themes.
