Web Design Poole
South Coast Web offers various packages for website design that are tailored to suit your needs. Our packages range from a basic landing page site all the way up to a bespoke e-commerce solution. Our web design Poole team will turn your vision into a reality using the latest practices and web technologies available.
We will soon be offering mobile phone app development for business websites so make sure to come back and find out what we will be able to offer.
Mobile first
We do not make a site live until it completely passes our in-house responsive test, this will ensure that a website will have complete cross-browser compatibility and work on all devices.
The idea behind this is that it helps to promote a better user experience which as a result will lead to more conversions.
Ofcom’s 2015 Communications Market Report, published on August 6th 2015, found that a third of internet users regarded their smartphone as the main device for accessing the world wide web*.
Due to this report, as seen below in our checklist, we now always make sure that any site which goes live functions and displays correctly on the most popular screen sizes and devices.
How our web design Poole service operates
Our web design Poole team will talk to you throughout the process to ensure that you are happy with how everything is progressing.
They will also suggest ideas where possible if they believe user experience can be improved.
Using your brief and ideas we can, from scratch, create a website which we know will exceed your expectations.
Brochure and E-commerce Websites
Our brochure and e-commerce sites utilise the latest web technologies to ensure that they stay relevant and future-proof, we can also offer CMS (Content Management System) driven websites which run off the popular platform WordPress.
HTML5
HTML 5 can be considered to be the skeleton of the website and acts as the actual source code of the page you view.
CSS3
We use CSS3 to improve the look and feel of the site so that users aren’t scared off by the bare bones of the HTML page.
PHP
PHP is a scripting language and as such is used to generate content on the website before the page loads to make sure it’s all there ready for the user to browse through.
Javascript
A lot of what we use Javascript for is validating elements on a webpage and providing additional functionality.
SQL
We use SQL (Structured Query Language) on database driven sites, typically e-commerce, to help the website manage orders and store products in a database.
