Richard Beardall, Westhill Studios.

Each client's web design is different and fresh

We've got a large portfolio on our website which shows work we've created for clients in the Poole area.

Our web designers try to convey the essence of your business - what drives you and what your culture is - but always keeping the user's experience in mind.

We keep everything in house because we have the creative ability and the ideas.

So - we can provide the designers, the photographers and video specialists, the web developers and the marketing ideas to get your website from concept to completion - and beyond!

A good website is simply the product of a good web designer, working with a good webmaster, having had good input from the client!

Usability

Good web design should never be at the expense of usability and functionality.

We will advise against anything that gets in the way of the user's experience. After all, visitors to your site will want to find what they need, quickly and with the minimum of fuss.

However, we will use the latest technology to highlight important messages or information, for example, with drop in boxes, picture galleries, lightboxes, rollovers and transitions.

We'll invest thought and time into the sitemap and information architecture and provide appropriate design and animation only where necessary.

To work with this small, dynamic team, call Poole 01202 711 661.

Design and build, search engine optimisation and development

We'll make sure that your website gets found because search engine optimisation is something we do as standard during the development process. In fact, we actually plan the design of the siteAROUNDthe optimisation process as part of our service.

Many web designers may tell you that they understand SEO, but actually very few do. However, when we say we are SEO specialists, we reallymeanthat we're SEO specialists.

We call our service"toptimisation"and clients who have been through this process are either at the top or on the very first page of Google for their chosen keywords.

How much will effective SEO cost me?

For £80.00, we'll add a sitemap, register and verify your site with Google. We'll also include a brief review of your keywords and metatags and if necessary, we'll add them to your home page.

This alone will have a significant effect on your positioning within the search engines and we'll also advise you on the many free things you can also do to improve your visibility.

We can also provide you with full statistical analysis and advise on whether your website's metadata needs refreshing.

Watch out!

Don't be fooled when web designers guarantee you a number 1 ranking on Google in return for a monthly fee. No-one can guarantee Google rankings and there really is no need to pay a fortune for it.

So please talk to us before you begin your website - and even before you buy your domain name. Quite often, we can also save you money on hosting fees.

We're always here for a chat, so why not pop in? We're right on the corner of the Old Wareham Road side of the Wessex Trade Centre Estate in Parkstone, Poole and there's usually plenty of free parking right outside!
