Our Values
We believe that a successful website gets the message across as easily as possible; there are many web design techniques and features that should be used cautiously on a professional site.
Badly chosen website style
If you want a website for your infant school, we can make the site fun and exciting for the children. If you are a small business, we can make it corporate looking using your existing business logos and colours. We will always strive to create a website that fits the organisation.
Low quality images
We actively encourage our customers to ensure that any images they provide are high-quality and sharp and they hold the copyright for their use. By doing this, it can turn an average website into a fantastic professional looking website!
Animated graphics
If you have ever tried to read a website with a spinning "@" sign in the corner, you will know how annoying it can be. We feel that most animations do not add to the overall information of the page and therefore are unnecessary, as they are a distraction from the text. We promise to only ever use animation where it enhances the website.
Inappropriate colour schemes
There are many websites out there with difficult to read text because the colours chosen were inappropriate. White text on a light yellow background will never work so we do not even try it on our sites! Even if the site's text is readable, colour and size is important so that banners and headings are not lost in the page. We feel that backgrounds should be kept subtle so they remain in the background.
Pop-up windows
We do not like to use pop-ups because a lot of people find them annoying and instantly close them. Other web users have them blocked by their software from even appearing. This is an ineffective way of getting across information because the user does not absorb any of the contents as it tends to be dismissed readily. A more thoughtful website design would allow for this information to be included in the main pages so avoiding a pop-up imposing itself on the user's desktop.
