| Web design |
|
We don't have a house style. We believe the style of each site should reflect your products and services, not ours. In this way, we're able to forge designs that are appropriate for a huge range of businesses, from baby-signing classes to holiday homes to jewellery to accountants. Below is just a selection of some of the sites we've designed. Click on any image to visit the website. |

| Blogs & personal sites: |
If you don't feel confident enough about setting up your own blog, or want a blog that is very tailored to your own personality or company's brand, then we can set one up for you. We can tailor the look and feel, and also add lots of cool functionality such as links, a calendar, web statistics, a search box, RSS feeds and lots more... |

|
| Search engine optimisation |
We regularly 'optimise' websites so that they achieve higher search engine rankings. It's all down to picking the right search phrases, and getting them into the site's text, headlines, alt tags, file names and other meta tags. Below are two of our many success stories: |
|
|
 TinyTalk
Baby Signing Classes
www.tinytalk.co.uk
We optimise the entire TinyTalk website, and even created 'gateway pages' stuffed with rich search term text, that help to re-direct search engines to the TinyTalk home page. The result has been tremendous - with TinyTalk appearing No. 1 on 3 of the top 4 engines, and No. 4 on Google. All this despite increasing competition from big American baby signing websites.
