The power of website design, why it matters

Beyond looking good a well-designed website gives people confidence in you and helps them find what they want on your site.

Because your website may well be informative, with clever functionality and coding underpinning it, but chances are if its design is not up to scratch that won’t be good enough; recent website design stats reveal 75% of visitors see well-designed websites as more trustworthy with poor design and content driving 38% of web visitors away according.

With such a demanding audience out there, and with online competition fierce, you can’t afford to neglect the design of your website.

We design websites thoughtfully so they’re easy to use and support your marketing goals. If your current site no longer matches up to where you are as a business, or you need a new one that makes a stronger first impression, we can help.

How and why we design custom WordPress websites

Our team are trained in the intricacies of web design and regularly hone their skills through training so we deliver beautifully designed websites which engage users and deliver results time after time.

Because at its heart, good web design is also about accessibility – the design of a website has a huge role in how easy it is to understand and to navigate for instance. Neglect this and you’re not only neglecting best practice but excluding people from your website. People who might otherwise have engaged with your work, or purchased your products.

Consequently, every web design project we undertake is treated as unique and each one custom coded. We don’t use off the shelf themes and repackage them for you, but instead design and develop each one from scratch – to give you total design flexibility and control.

In this way, not only do you get total control over the look and feel of your website from the beginning you’ll also get a website which can grow and evolve with you. Not one in which you’re constrained by what’s available.

Throughout the design process we draw on our knowledge of user interface design and user experience to advise on how best to achieve a website which will get attention no matter the device it’s viewed on; mobile, tablet or desktop – we’ll design a great user experience.

Who do we design websites for?

We work across the private, public and charitable sectors. If you’re ambitious and value something being done properly then we’re here to bring your vision to life.

We are a creative agency for people who value doing things the right way, it’s not about shortcuts. Our designs are created with skill and knowledge about how people interact with websites, delivered on schedule and made to last.

Our approach

We start by understanding your organisation, your audience and what your website needs to achieve. Then we shape the design around those goals.

Our process is open and collaborative. We will challenge where needed, explain our reasoning clearly and help you make decisions with confidence. You are not just buying a set of visuals. You are getting experienced design input that helps your website work harder.

A strong design also needs a strong build behind it. Once the direction is clear, we can also take the project through into custom website development so the finished site delivers properly in practice, not just in concept.
