Static Websites
A static website is one without any
server-side functionality and has no database or interactive content. Static
web design is appropriate for smaller websites that don’t need any complex
features or content. Static websites can still be designed to look really good
with stylish graphics and content, they just can’t do anything clever based
upon any behind-the-scenes programming. The advantage is that a static website
is easier, faster and cheaper to design and build but is still professional and
stylish.
Basic
Brochure Website
For individuals and small businesses
with a low budget; a Simple but professional website that acts as a brochure or
advert for you and your business. Brochure websites can have as few as one or
two pages (usually five or six) and typically follow a common format:
- Home Page - an eye-catching introduction to your
business with clear summary information about what you do
- About / Philosophy - who you are, your credentials and
your values
- Your Services - one page for each different service you
offer
- Contact - a contact form, address/telephone/email,
location map
- Links
Advanced
Static Website
For small/medium businesses: static
websites can be enhanced with advanced web design features to make them slick,
stylish and interesting including:
- Drop-down navigation
- Animated jQuery (javascript) effects
- Flash content
- Multimedia (video/audio)
- News page
- Social Network plugins
- Image gallery
Each static website we design is
unique and we work with our clients to help them decide on the right features
for their website which are appropriate to their business and budget.
Dynamic
Website Design - Large/Complex Websites
Dynamic websites make use of
server-side programming and databases to store and deliver the content. This
allows web pages to perform more complex functions and display complex data and
interactive content. This is the standard way that larger websites are designed
as it makes adding large numbers of pages based upon the same template very
easy. The down side is that it requires more initial work than a static website
so it isn’t economical for small sites.
Content
Management System (CMS) Website
For people who want to make frequent
changes/updates or want full control over their website we design them with a
CMS. A CMS can be part of just about any kind of website. Depending on your
needs this can be as simple as the ability to add new items to a news page or
image gallery, or full what-you-see-is-what-you-get (WYSIWYG) control over the
content of each page.
We work with our clients to develop
a bespoke website and CMS solution that suits their needs. We can give you as
much or as little control over your website as you require. We are also happy
to update any website we design for our clients either on a scheduled or ad-hoc
basis.
eCommerce
Websites
For businesses that make money
through their website either by selling goods from an online shop or offering
premium (paid for) online services. This can range from simple integration with
PayPal to sell a small number of items in an online shop where PayPal handles
the entire checkout and stock-management process to large, self-contained shops
which securely process credit card payments for hundreds of items.
eCommerce websites are (almost)
always dynamic and database driven and usually have the provision for the
client to add new items and update prices, descriptions, images and stock
levels from a dedicated admin system. Sometimes some of the features of an
eCommerce website will be integrated into a different kind of website e.g. a
band/musician might have a website with images, news and information about
their music but also has the ability to sell that music as a digital download.
