Mobile responsive design is where websites are built to adapt to any screen size. This ensures optimal viewing and usage across all devices. Responsive websites improve user experience, boost engagement, and are essential to ranking well on Google for mobile searches.
The typical website development timeframe is 2-4 months. More complex sites with extensive features take longer. We always provide personalised timescales for each project undertaken that are specific to that project's scope of work and unique requirements.
Bespoke websites are faster, generally more secure (not open source) and allow for advanced features and functionality that are not easily achieved on website builders or when using ready-made templates. Custom sites also enable fuller SEO optimisation as any aspect of the website including how it looks and works can be customised to your needs.
One of the key ways you can make your website more user-friendly is to make it easy to navigate. There should be clear calls to action, and the user should know exactly who you are, what you do, and what action you'd like them to take at a glance. It also helps if the website is visually appealing, modern and professional in appearance. The user should be able to achieve most important actions on your site within 3-4 clicks. Your website should also be fast, and should have an SSL certificate in place so there are no security warnings displayed to visitiors within their browser or antivirus software.
One of the most important aspects of any website is getting a steady flow of visitors coming in. Search Engine Optimisation, or SEO for short, is the practice of ensuring your website shows up as high as possible in the search results on Google and the other search engines. This is done by making sure that the correct words and phrases (keywords) are included in the right places on your website. First, keyword research is conducted to find out what words and phrases your potential customers are searching for, and these keywords are included in the right places on your website in order to have the best chance or ranking above your competitors for those searches.
