Website Design

The first step to a successful web site is having a professional and functional design.
We endeavour to address a balance between 'design' and 'functionality' with web sites that look good and work effectively - download quickly, navigate easily and are search engine friendly.

Maintenance Managed by Select Web Design
We can carry out cosmetic or text changes to your web site on an ad hoc basis. Updates are charged at our standard hourly rates and to keep future costs to a minimum, we will build your web site in a structured format using tables, style sheets and clean code thus enabling maintenance, additions and updates to be carried out easily and efficiently.

Maintenance Managed Independently by the Site Owner or Administrator
If you wish to maintain your web site (or parts of your web site) independently, we can develop a password-restricted online Content Management System from which you can easily update the content of your web site from any PC with an Internet connection.
