Strathclyde Computers   Websites


We undertake website design and development including everything from small brochure type sites through to database driven and e-commerce projects. In addition to new builds we are happy to do website refurbs and error repairs on existing sites to bring them up to date.

Website design

It doesn't have to be that complicated! We can take care of everything including sorting out the domain name, the hosting, helping you choose colours, layout and working with you on your text & promotion.

We provide full access to the 'work in progress' site throughout the build and encourage input and collaboration.

 

Website development

Keeping content fresh and updated is important. For smaller sites we provide training so that clients can update key areas by simply uploading text files. For larger sites we can create a database with a friendly interface.

All the training you might need is provided and we are there for support when needed. Otherwise we can do all the updating for a sensible rate, all you have to do is e-mail in any new content. We ensure that all our sites are cross-browser compatible and validate with W3C. As standard practice we deal with the niceties such as favicons and e-mail stationary and also, having ensured that meta-tags are correct, set up Google site verification.

 

Website refurbs


As time goes by web coding evolves, layout styles & colours fade from view and websites sometimes need to be refreshed & re-energised. If you would like us to quote for a site refurb just send us the site address. Many older sites have browser incompatibilities and other errors or use in-efficient code. We can identify and resolve these to ensure cross-browser compatibility and suitability for search engines.

If you have an existing site and would like a short report then we will do this for free, just send us the web address.

 

Website Hosting

We can set up and manage your website on our own shared hosting facility. Our facilities are very secure, extremely reliable and we provide all the necessary support should it be required. Annual hosting fees start from just £33 per year and include a full LAMP spec ( Linux, Apache, MySql & PHP) For those that want to develop and maintain their own web pages and facilities we provide the outstanding CPanel interface. See a demo here.

If we build a website for you we then provide our other IT support services i.e. computer repair, virus removal, security tests etc. at a 40% discount! As long as you are within our call-out area otherwise free phone/e-mail support...forever!
