Problems we solve for our clients...
Websites are complex and there is a lot of room for error. From design to build to delivery, each stage needs to be correct for the site to become a success. You may find some of these problems sound familiar?:
- Design that just doesn't work - user experience (UX) and user interface (UI) issues (Unusable website that frustrates customers causing them to bounce and go off to a competitor).
- Poor accessibility (Website traffic through mobile accounting for more than half and people hate the experience).
- Poor communication from existing agency (missed sales/ ineffective response times etc).
- Poor value from current agency (too expensive, deliverables are not correct etc).
- Hard to get answers from current agency.
- Failure to understand your business to provide the right solutions.
How would you like website designers to...
- Improve enquiries/sales/conversions.
- Improve representation of your company/organisation.
- Add new functionality you want to promote.
- Create better brand awareness.
- Deliver on marketing objectives: More traffic, leads, brand awareness, and exposure.
- Make easier updates, add new products and new promotions etc.
Plan for success
No one knows your business better than you and in order to ensure the success of your project, we keep you involved every step of the way.
We deliver an initial consultation where everything is up for discussion. This helps get your project off to the best possible start and begin building the strong rapport between our website designer team and yourselves through listening to your expectations and needs. Our website designers then map out the rest of the project based on what you say.
Our process is: Planning it Right. Designing it Right. Building it Right. But how do we do that exactly?...
Plan it
We produce sitemaps and wireframes to work out where all the important pages need to be and where elements sit in the page. We make sure you have enough pagetypes to grow the site in the future with minimal development work from us. We may even explore the user journey for your target audiences to make sure they can all find what they want quickly
Design it
Once you’ve approved the sitemap and wireframes, you can move onto the design stage, this is where we’ll add your branding (logo/graphics images/colour scheme). At this stage additional content may also be required and we can work with you to ensure this resonates with your audience.
Build it
This is where we do the coding and the website moves into being interactive. Normally building the home page first and getting your approval before moving onto the next pages. Everything receives a thorough test to make sure it works across all devices and at all screen sizes.
These are the basic parts of the process, of course there may be much more to larger projects such as user research, copywriting, or interactive prototypes.
Once these stages are complete and we have your approval, we move onto the testing stage of our web design service where we use a range of browsers and devices and our website testing software. Then we are set for launching the new website in all it’s glory when you are ready to go live.
This ongoing communication drives the success of our projects, keeps our clients on our books and returning for future collaborations. To learn more, see what our clients have to say or read up on our approach.

We are website designers working on cutting-edge projects
As experienced website designers, we love technology and seeing how it evolves to help improve the services we can offer our clients. We strive to design and build you an excellent website, designed to work hard for your business or organisation and a joy for you to work with.
Our platform of choice is ConcreteCMS because it is a cutting-edge Content Management System (CMS) with up to date code, running on very recent versions of PHP which provide the foundations for robust longevity. Therefore, you can get many years out of the website, making it a more than worthwhile investment.
Our website designers create websites to look modern and to stand the test of time well, using the screen space well, mobile friendly and with excellent accessibility.
You may have ideas for "phase 2" or "phase 3" after the initial build and almost anything is possible with a quality bespoke website build. You won't be hitting any walls like you can with website builders and may want to view this comparison:Why go for a bespoke website rather than using a website builder?
Website designer services compliment your digital marketing
Marketing your business, and your website in particular, is crucial to achieving success via growing your audience and visitor numbers to the site. We ensure our clients websites are created with marketing friendly foundations that allow your web content all across the site to flourish when supported by an adequate marketing budget.
Our website designer services come in conjunction with SEO, search engine optimisation, if desired or alternatively provided as an additional marketing service to those who are happy with their website but want to boost their organic traffic. The ultimate aim of SEO is to increase the quantity and quality of organic traffic to your website, in turn increasing leads, conversions and sales.
How do the websites that we design and build successfully help with SEO marketing?
Google will crawl and index every aspect of your website that is open to do so. A well designed and thought-out website makes it easier for Google and other search engines to understand the content present. They want to return the highest quality results to their users – this includes the content and the general health of the website. Search engines do not favour websites that are full of errors, often hindering the ranking potential of multiple pages. Hence, our website designers deliver an end product that is assembled to provide strong technical SEO throughout.

I am Chief Executive of a charity. When I took over our website crashed and we lost all our data. We switched hosts to Made Simple Media, took on a brand new CMS and we have never looked back. Dave was fantastic then and remains so. Always approachable, quick to respond and great tools to help you on your way.
Matthew Sykes, Sir Simon Milton Foundation
We commissioned David at Made Simple Media to build our website for About Mortgages. David was responsive, incredibly patient, on budget and provided a great finished product that we're delighted with.
Paul, About Mortgages
We are delighted with the quality of our new website, which has enabled us to effectively communicate our various areas of work and build an engaged and increasingly active audience. The common-sense design and easy-to-navigate structure has also helped us establish our organisational identity following a full rebrand in 2017. The support has been excellent throughout.
