WEBSITE
DEVELOPMENT
The professional website development of a fast, mobile-friendly, well-structured website is non-negotiable. A pretty template website is not enough and often brings instability and speed issues - which are overcome with custom web development. Our experienced web developers help YOU stand out from the crowd. Don't skimp! An effective website is the critical foundation of all your online marketing efforts. Professionals work with professionals.
Beautiful but slow websites are disliked by Google and website users alike - research shows that most people will click away from a website if not loaded in less than 3 seconds! A fast website is a key way to gain search engine ranking over your competitors, since most business owners settle for a "ready-made" template website that is slower by definition - often unaware that there is a difference between template & custom website development. Our mission is to educate and assist with this. We'll differentiate your website with speed and strategy.
Mobile-friendly websites (responsive websites geared for different screen sizes & screen readers) are absolutely non-negotiable today. Google and website users penalise non-responsive websites. Knowing how to present information differently on different screen sizes is a professional website developer skill that includes the best font sizes, line heights and break-points for different devices. Getting this right becomes a strategic advantages in an era where almost 70% of South Africans search for what they need on mobile, borne out by analytics.
SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) is an art & a science requiring expert web development skills and research to remain at the cutting edge of ever-moving goal posts. Your website must be found on Google for keywords relevant to your offering, right? To meet this goal requires clarity about your unique selling points, appropriate website structure, naming conventions and coding best practices. SEO-focused design also considers strategy and landing page performance. People find your website if SEO is good; people stay on your website if design is good.
