"Easy-to-edit" business websites that you can update yourself.
No more expensive calls to your web design company.

We build cost-effective websites for small businesses, that can be managed easily by the business owner themselves or anyone familiar with writing documents on the PC. The website provides a familiar WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) page editor, allowing the creation of stylish pages, whilst still preserving a coherent format throughout the site..

Keeping Costs Down

We are happy to create new content pages and keep your site up to date for you, but we show you how you can edit and add your own site content. This will save you money and give you the flexibility to update your site when you need it updated!

Site Styles

The site templates we use are carefully chosen to meet your business image requirements and accommodate your existing graphics, company logos etc. If you require additional artwork, we can arrange this for you or will be happy to work with your graphic designers.

Features

Our sites can include a range of features including; secure online ordering from product / part catalogues, customer login areas, user forums, document management (for technical articles, brochures, etc), FAQs, Blogging (great for search engines), customer case studies and much more.

What is a Content Managed website and what makes it different?

Traditionally, websites have been created by specialist web design companies, either using raw HTML code, or expensive proprietary web authoring packages. Often, changes to a single page must be replicated on all other site pages, making even simple site updates time consuming and costly. Keeping the site up to date, increases the ongoing management costs and can often tie you into the original website designer.

By using a content management system, (CMS) all of your site content is stored in a database on the web server. This is published as pages by the content management system through a Site Template.

Any content that appears on multiple pages (e.g. menus) need only ever be entered/changed once. It is then automatically updated on all pages it appears on.

Not only that, if you ever want to change the appearance and layout of your site, you do NOT have to recreate the pages or menus, simply get us to change the Template for you.

Page Layout Styles

The templates we use provide a huge range of flexibility for your site layout, allowing different page layouts to be chosen for different pages. For example, you can write an advert and have it published on any page and even get it to automatically rotate periodically with other adverts. Great for special offers!

Future Proof

Being able to change your Site Template, without having to re-create all your content, will allow you to keep up to date with new web technologies as they arise.

On-Line Shopping

Our CMS sites are ideal for on-line shopping as they provide a catalogue system for items to be entered and managed. This allows you to make rapid changes to your on-line store contents.

Who should use this type of system?

Content Management systems are ideal for any business  website where the site owner wants to make frequent additions / deletions to the site, updates to pages, addition of new products etc. Keeping your site up to date and fresh will improve your sites relevance and positioning in search engines and make it more attractive to your customers.
