Our Web Services

Web site design, hosting and search engine optimisation

Whether you need a new web site, a reliable company to provide support and host an existing site or you would like to boost your site in the Google Search rankings, we can help.

With years of experience supporting web sites owned by one-man bands, small businesses, schools and e-commerce sites, we have a great reputation among local and national customers in the UK.

Below we have given some of the steps that we like to take when building a new web site, as an example of things that may be considered for your project.

Understanding

First we need to have a full understanding of a client’s requirements which will involve a detailed discussion, often raising questions that will encourage to the development of possibilities and and avenues to explore further. The most important thing for a website is not, surprisingly, what colour scheme might look nice but what the client wants the site to DO for them and their organisation.

Proposal

Once we have a full understanding of your requirements we will draft a proposal and quotation to fulfil them. At this point you may wish to come back to us with questions and / or further requirements.

Our quotations are usually fully costed for a core design with a breakdown of options and their costs for your consideration. These are accompanied by a draft of our standard trading contract. Once the final specification has been agreed, a full contract is issued together with an invoice for the initial payment.

Development

During the development phase you will be provided with a web address where you will be able to monitor the progress of the website design and development. This address will be blocked to search engines and may be password protected.

Clients are encouraged to provide feedback as the project develops and SiteE@se will respond to that, making adjustments and amendments as required. Should these depart significantly from the original agreed brief, requiring additional work, the overall quoted cost may increase.

Before going live, your website will be extensively tested and a full technical performance report provided.

Implement

At ‘go live’ a number of things will happen:
the site’s files are moved from the development area, if applicable, to the live area
the site is registered with Google Webmasters Tools and a sitemap containing links to all the pages on the website is submitted to Google for indexing
visitor analytics statistics are activated and a weekly report in pdf format set up to be emailed to identified recipients in your organisation
where applicable, training is provided at handover to a designated person in your organisation who may be managing content on the site

Review

During the days and weeks after your site goes live, it’s performance and Google rankings are monitored and, if necessary, adjustments made.

Clients may be asked to provide feedback on the service received from SiteE@se on a public review website.

Hosting

Your website and email services deserve to reside on a fast, reliable hosting platform in a state of the art UK data centre.
