Do you want a website you can easily update?

A Content Management website allows you to update your website at any time, without the need for in-depth web design knowledge. We use Joomla, an open source application and many examples of this type of site can be viewed on our portfolio. In fact this site was developed using Joomla.

Joomla is one of the most powerful Open Source Content Management Systems available. It is used all over the world for everything from simple websites to complex corporate applications.

You need a content managed website if...

  • You don't want to have to pay to change your site
  • You want to do it yourself in the time it takes you to drink your coffee
  • You want features like newsletters, forums, blogs and galleries

E-commerce websites

We have developed a number of successful e-commerce websites for clients throughout Scotland. We can offer a variety of ecommerce systems to suit your requirements, ranging from simple Paypal 'buy-now' buttons on your site, to fully dynamic ecommerce systems based on the open source Zen Cart platform. We can make recommendations on which approach best suits your budget and requirements.

Search engine Optimisation

We offer our clients a technically optimised site and ethical search engine optimisation (SEO). Ethical SEO simply means following the guidelines set out by the major search engines, creating good navigation (with correct linking), a site map, correct use of header tags and advice on relevant text on the page. Unethical or black hat techniques such as cloaking and the use of hidden text can lead to a site being banned.
