Web development is our core strength

But what is it, and how is it different from web design? Simply put, web development is the actual construction of a website - taking the design and turning it into a attractive and functional website.

What Else?

Website development includes a lot more than just taking a design and making a website look the same. Users now expect a useable and interactive site. This means developing and enhancing your site with extra functionality

This may be as simple as putting a contact form on your site that automatically emails you, to database driven sites that might allow your users to search for and view your products.

With the internet, anything is possible, and we know how to make it happen.

Why Choose Us?

There are lots of people who can put a website together and get it online, but not many who can do it properly. A well constructed site takes many factors into consideration that a lot of developers might not take into consideration.

For instance...

• Does the website look the same in all web browsers (Internet Explorer 6, 7 & 8, Firefox, Safari, Chrome)
• Is the structure search engine friendly?
• Is the site secure?
• Is the site accessible? What if the browser has JavaScript disabled?

This is just a small sample of the considerations when developing a professional-looking site. If you have a design, and want to create a workable site, get in contact.

Making websites dynamic

PHP and MySQL are the technologies that support many of most popular websites in the world.

PHP is a programming language that allows your site to become dynamic and interactive. You can use PHP to change what your site displays based on what your user wants. You can add search features, product catalogs, directories or administrative functions that control the content of your site.

MySQL is a database system. Some database system powers nearly all of the major websites in the world. Utilising a database would allow many features, such as having user log-ins, e-commerce, news and blogs
