...The Worldwide Web Managed ...
About...
We're actually professional photographers by trade and run a sister company called Press Photographers. We combine our photography skills with our graphics experience to create our designs but also work closely with graphic designers to do what we can't do ourselves.
We're not a massive company at all, in fact we're a pretty small company and like everyone does,we have our limitations and know our boundaries If we don't have the knowledge to complete your request we'll work with other professionals to get you exactly what you need.
Content Management (CMS)
All of our sites are now built using content management systems. This allows you, to take full control of your site and add content to it on a regular basis without the need to be calling us and asking us to make changes. You simply log in to any internet browserfrom anywhere at anytime, alter existingcontent or add new con tenet.No nasty bills to pay after the initial development. Just annualhosting and maintenancefees.
Content...
Content is the key to any successful website. Back to the shop window analogy what's the point of having a great looking shop window if you don't have anything interesting inside. Visitorsaren't going to stay for long and it's doubtful they will return. We will help you to work out what it is that you have to promote and how you can use this medium to promote it.,

Web Management
This isn't just a fancy name for web design. We don't actually believe the name web designer should exist. A graphic designer & a web programmer do very different jobs! One designs, the other makes the design work! We help you get the best out of the web whether that be design or marketing.
The Way We Think!
t's not just the fact that we think that makes us different. After all, dolphins think, apparently. As do monkeys. It's the way we think that matters.Our thought process is simple. No matter what constraints are put on us we have to produce results that work for you and your business. Obviously, we like to think we are creatively and technically sound. But more importantly, we are commercially smart. We need to create what you and your customers need, not what's cool !
Coding
Graphic design is all very good but the web is about compromise. You need to use fonts that people can read. You need to use graphics which people can also read. As many as one in five people have some kind of disabilitywhether it be bad eye sight or something else that prevents them from looking at the screen as you may do so yourself. Too many sites, simply don't cater for this huge percentage, don;t be one of them!
Browsers
As many people know, Internet Explorerisn't the only browser people use. Apple users tend to use Safari whilst Firefox is becoming more an more popular, as is Opera. You'd be amazed how many websites onlywork correctly in Internet Explorer. It's a bit like building a new bridge but it's too narrow for lorries to cross! You are limiting your traffic which you really don't want to do.
How much?
You'll always finder cheaper and more expensive things in life but we aim to provide a fair service for a fair cost. We are happy to quote fixed prices for fixed amounts of work but we need to establish exactly what is required first. Additional work is charged at an agreed hourly fee. Don't worry though, we work with you all the way along. We hate nasty surprises and will keep you fully informed of costs as we work.
