21 October, 2020When creating a website or web app, the main factors of concern to most are speed, flexibility, admin-friendliness, security and maintainability. Many of these factor into how well your site will rank in search results, either directly or indirectly.
Web development at Handmade Web & Design is done by our expert team of in-house web developers using the latest standards-compliant technologies. These guys and girls are passionate about ensuring that under the bonnet of your website, the engine is peppy and purring.
Whether the right look is contemporary or vintage, minimalist, corporate or quirky, our stunning user-friendly designs are second to none.
All our websites are fully mobile optimised, with responsive designs for all screen sizes. Essential both for web users and search engines.
Website page structures, headings, content, copyediting, image optimisation, code and techniques that search engines like Google love.
Our websites bring customers to your business, whether your aim is to generate enquiries, sales, advertising or people through the door.
All our websites are built using the powerful WordPress content management system, so you can save money by updating text and images yourself.
For the month following launch, any updates or minor changes to your website are done free of charge as part of our service.
We mostly create beautiful custom WordPress sites. These are built to a custom design we create, not from a template factory. That means our websites are unique to you and your competitor is unlikely to pop up looking just the same.
We believe in WordPress, because it’s the most popular content management system (CMS) in the world. You can add new complex features cheaply and easily at any time, so it’s economical and future-proof.
And if you want to take your website elsewhere someday, you don’t have to stick with us because of a CMS that’s a “unique flower”, only understood by your current partner.
While we love WordPress, we also create custom web apps when WordPress just isn’t the most effective way to solve a particularly complex problem.
While we have a great track record for client satisfaction, we use standard PHP frameworks and MySQL, so you’re not tied to us if you want to have the app modified elsewhere.
We go through your business objectives, branding and style preferences, your target customers and what they need from your website.
We research how customers search for products or services like yours and how your competitors and aspirational businesses present themselves online, to inform your new website's page structure and design.
We design your homepage and one other key page to share with you. After iterating these based on your feedback, we design the remaining pages and variations for different screen sizes.
We build your new website to work on all screen sizes, edit all the written content and code for search engines, optimise images, and make hundreds of tiny adjustments to ensure everything is perfect.
Once you have reviewed the final website, we 'go live'. We fix any technical 'bugs' that arise, install security measures and a back-up system, then train you on how to update your site if you wish to.
