It’s the old adage, which has never been more true - you get what you pay for. Sure, you could probably get a friend of a friend to build your site, but would you really be happy with the result? Would you end up changing it again a few months later when you realise it simply isn’t up to the task in hand?  Most likely yes - is it therefore good value for money...NO!

The role of a High End Creative Design Agency is to be the expert. We do this day in day out and make a living out of it - yet there is still this one remaining hurdle to overcome with a lot of people.

 

We Are Angry…

that we have had another poor soul through our doors who has paid “someone” to build their site, and yet again the results are beyond pathetic they are destructive!

The reason is - there are a lot of (and it pains me to say it) cowboys out there - damaging the reputation of us credible, talented and effective Design Agencies.  Knocking something up from a template using code that is beyond archaic will do you and your business no favors whatsoever - not only will it look bad, but google will not be able to see it therefore achieving any web presence will be an almost impossible task.

A Professional Web Design Agency…

will be able to guide, support and direct you, offering a real valuable return on your investment. You spend £500 with a mate on a website which makes you absolutely no money, generates no business and actually frightens your potential customers away is a waste of £500. So, spend £3000+ on a site which will generate double, triple, quadruple that for you business...It’s a no brainer!

A professional creative agency will be able to show you a list satisfied customers. This history and track-record will re-assure you that you are investing your money in a safe bet!  True, a web design agency may charge you higher fees, but you are being offered high quality work which will prove its worth for years to come.

The list of reasons why you should invest your money carefully are endless, yet speak for themselves.  If you are serious about getting your business up and running on line, delivering business to you fast, you must speak to a professional agency. All too often we find ourselves picking up the pieces of someone who has been let down with their cheap web solution and they end up spending more than they would have done in the first place to get it right!
 
If want a web presence which will work, please have a look around the site and say hello or give us a call. We look forward to helping your business flourish!

 

There are moments throughout my day at work where I will think “Oh, I need to check last minute flights when I get home”, “Oh, I’ll have a look at what play.com have to offer this week” “I wonder what’s new on Money Saving Expert” and so on. But what happens when I get home and switch on my notebook is a little phenomenon I like to call ‘Facebook default’.

Without even thinking about it, my pointer goes straight to the Facebook shortcut in my menu bar and before I know it I’m logging and looking at my Mum’s photos. The funny thing is, I created my Mum’s profile and uploaded the photos for her from MY own personal photo collection!

So what is it that Facebook has got which means it has this automatic pull to so many of us when all we really wanted to do was look at holidays, clothes and ways to save a bit of cash?

I was never a MySpace user and have only visited MySpace on a handful of occasions and my overall impression has been that it appears jumbled, messy and far too disorganised for my tidy designer mind to deal with.

Perhaps it is this which has captured the masses so well?  Facebook took elements of MySpace and FriendsReunited and simply did it better. Facebook’s interface design is clean, effective, self explanatory and doesn’t allow users to meddle with its look and feel, which, to us fastidious creative designers – is always a good thing and has become one of its strongest assets.  From a critical eye, the ability of the site's creators to cram so many features and so much information into a somewhat simple and clean interface is quite a triumph.

But I’m still not sure though if this neither explains Facebook’s ‘stickiness’ nor provides any justification to its habitual draw for so many of us.  

I would not even say Facebook is particularly cool, (especially when your Mum starts using it) sometimes I even feel a little ashamed of myself for having spent so long having a nosey at other people’s profiles.  However, I can quite shamelessly admit (and maybe I speak for others here) that as a naturally competitive and curious person it’s normal to judge ourselves against those we know, so there is an additional motivating factor creating this pull - the desire to see how others are doing and to judge our own achievement and/or happiness against them.
