Web strategy

Getting your strategy right is key to launching and maintaining a successful web presence.

No longer can you just have a simple brochure website with stock photos of smart looking people. These days the internet and the people who use it (your potential customers) have evolved and demand more from your website. People don't really care about corporate waffle anymore.

What they care about is what their peers think and say and generally, what Google says about you. So getting it wrong could seriously damage your company profile.

That is why a web strategy is so important. We help you with search engine positioning, choosing the right CMS for instant updates, social media, blogging, twitter feeds etc.

Accessibility

Creating an accessible website not only increases your customer base, it also goes hand in hand with improved search engine optimisation.

Firstly, search engines love standards compliant websites, so making your site accessible kills two birds with one stone, thereby:

  • Increasing traffic to your site
  • Increasing your customer base
  • Improving usability of the site
  • Ultimately helping drive sales and revenue

Secondly, remember that designing accessible websites doesn't mean that they have to be boring. They just need to be available for all to use, no matter what their ability.

Some users may be blind, some may have visual impairments, some may be using screen reader technology, and some may not be able to use a mouse, keyboard or vice-versa. Users of all abilities may be interested in your products or services and it pays to make sure that the widest possible demographic can gain easy, stress free access to your content.

Personas

Devising a series of user personas helps to reinforce a set of goals before conceptual production has started. Not every user accomplishs the same task. Personas are put together from speaking to the client, learning about the product and what is has to offer. How they compare in the market against their competitors and most importatly what they offer their customers. Website anyalitics helps us to digest how the existing website has failed or succeded in these tasks.

Website Analytics

Tracking information; allowing us to understand the faults of the existing website such as why information isn't reaching the user or why users are dropping off at certain points of a process.

Search Engine Optimisation

We understand the importance of being seen in the major search engines.

That's why we build our sites to be as search engine compliant as possible.

We also call on a team of trusted SEO experts to help with your strategy.
