An outstanding website development project blends strategic insights and creative design grounded in a deep understanding of user behaviour.
Set goals for what you want to achieve and establish all the elements you want to see on your website.
Discover how Growth-Driven Design can help deliver continuous improvement on your website.
Your website is the most important digital asset you have. It should give you complete control over the content, branding, and user experience. Additionally, it should establish credibility, facilitate SEO, enable data analysis, and serve as a hub for sales and marketing.
An outstanding website development project blends strategic insights and creative design grounded in a deep understanding of user behaviour. It aims to serve your business goals and your audience's needs while considering competitor benchmarks. It isn’t about showcasing your company’s achievements, but about addressing the needs and concerns of the OEMs you want to work with.
Armed with all this information, we will create a user journey map and develop a wish list of items to include on your site that will help you achieve your goals.

Setting goals for your website helps to build a solid foundation for your website strategy. What are your high level business targets? Do your sales team need more leads? Do you need to attract and retain more quality staff? Whatever the goal, we work to increase those metrics.
Every website project should start with a wish list of website actions, modules or pages to support your goals. The wish list is used to determine the initial action items to implement on the new site and works as an agile and flexible list that we will work through in continuous growth-driven design (GDD) cycles.
A wireframe is a skeleton of a page that shows the spacing of elements and how content is prioritised. It allows us to identify any usability issues early on in the design process. Wireframes are intentionally void of colour, graphics, and stylised fonts.
A prototype is a simulation closely resembling the final product and is used for testing and approval before the build and launch. It will have enough detail to enable us to test the flow, screen layouts, text and basic interactions. Prototyping is essential for resolving usability issues and revealing areas for improvement before proceeding to build.
By analysing search trends, understanding user intent, and crafting strategies that position your brand at the forefront of relevant searches, your content doesn't just speak, but speaks to the right audience, at the right time, in the right places.
In extended, complex sales cycles, content must align with each phase of the buyer's journey: awareness, consideration, and decision. Such alignment helps address evolving customer questions and concerns, facilitating informed decision-making.
Your content isn't just about conveying information. It should inspire action. Every word, sentence, and paragraph should serve a purpose, guiding the reader towards a desired outcome. It bridges the gap between interest and action, turning visitors into potential prospects.
The importance of UX optimisation in content lies in clarity, engagement, and accessibility. Well-structured content tailored to user needs ensures comprehension, retains attention, and fosters positive user interactions, elevating overall digital experiences.

JJS Manufacturing (now ESCATEC) wanted a revitalised strategy to break through the £30m sales barrier, grow website traffic and leads, and find a new, more powerful way of marketing and turning leads into customers.
Cognidox wanted a new website to professionalise their look, feel and standing in the document management and product control development ‘space’. The strategy had to drive qualified leads, generate demand for demos, support conversions and an aggressive business growth plan.
Insightful Environments decided to invest in HubSpot and an inbound marketing strategy and wanted an agency that could deliver a mix of brand, content and creativity linked to their business goals.
The strategic elements we develop with you during the Positioning and Branding modules and the Website Strategy workshop will inform the site structure, user journeys, messaging, and page flows.
From those foundations, the development process moves through the following key stages:

We develop a style direction for your new site, agreeing design elements like colourways, iconography, and image style.

We create "page flows' for key pages, which determine messaging and structure, and plan copy development for the entire site.

Our developers build the pages to an agreed project plan. You'll see previews and approvals along the way.

We QA each page and the entire site as well as test it across major browsers, devices and screen sizes before launching it for the world to experience.

Once your site is live, we monitor it to ensure everything is up and running as expected and the search engines are happy.

We start with a wishlist of items you want to include on your website and prioritise those offering the greatest results for the least amount of effort.
We design and build the items agreed in step 1 whilst considering elements for experiments, such as A/B testing.
We collect user data and analyse how the site is performing against your goals. We use this data to review the existing wish list and inform the goals for the next cycle.
Learnings are shared with your Sales, Marketing, and Customer Service teams. This creates alignment across teams so you can provide a better user experience throughout the entire customer journey.
