SEO Web Design & Development For Small & Large Businesses Plus Corporate Customers
SEO web design is all about on page search engine optimisation. Your website needs to stand out from your competitors. Effective website design is not just about creating a lovely looking website, with good copy and excellent graphics. If you don’t market it by using search engine optimization (SEO) techniques, then your website won’t be doing much for your business; you need your website to work hard for your business!
If your website isn’t SEO designed, how will customers find you?
As a business, you need to make the best of every opportunity to market your products or services; the Internet offers a wide range of marketing opportunities. And don’t forget, it’s not just about marketing your website, it’s also about making sure your website is recognised by your customers. To draw potential customers to your website, search engine optimization (SEO) is a must! Whether you are based in Arundel, Bognor Regis, London, Worthing, Sussex, Hampshire or Surrey you need your customers to be able the find your website.
Our Website Designers Specialize In Search Engine Optimization Friendly Sites
SEO website design services can seem like a minefield with jargon being used frequently to describe some basic functions. For example meta tags; these we are a told help push your website up the search engine rankings. Meta tags are hidden and live in the header of the HTML document. Its function is to supply additional information about the document and they are not visible to the reader. It’s important too that meta tags are included on every page.
Search engines also use page headlines and sub-headings to index your website; so it is beneficial to include your keywords in what are known as H1, H2 and H3 tags. These H tags are given more weight by search engines than page content. They also work in decreasing order so in other words, H1 is more important that H2, and H2 more than H3. It’s a big mistake not to use H tags and we believe that rather than using keywords randomly, that short sentences or tag lines work better. Using H1 tags is a brilliant way to add emphasis to your website’s keywords so we make sure they will be included in your search engine optimisation strategy.
Keywords are important including them in your meta tags as this can improve your search engine ranking. For example, if the meta tag was “Mays Web Design” AND in the text on the pages, then the search engine will recognise that “mays web design” is an important theme.
But there’s another critical step with keywords that isn’t always appreciated - keyword research. To do this, we need to think like potential customers would, identifying what words and phrases they would use to find products or services that you sell. Keywords are used by search engines to make your webpages more searchable and page descriptions only need to be a sentence or two to describe what the page is about. Unless your keywords and descriptions are accurate and correct, then nobody will find your site.
You can’t afford to let potential customers surf by your business so getting your SEO web design right is essential.
Ecommerce Solutions Using Joomla, Wordpress & Drupal
Ecommerce is the term given to buying and selling goods or services online whether this is banking, retail shopping or investing. So what makes a brilliant ecommerce website? The answer is simple and one which we will be able to help you with - ecommerce websites (i.e. those with ‘shopping carts’ or baskets) need to be sleek and easy to use.
The ‘functionality’ of the shopping cart is the key. Shopping carts or baskets or trolleys need to show all the essential information to the consumer, such as price, quantity, VAT or other taxes, discounts etc. Consumers need to trust the purchasing process so recognised security certificates (SSL) and payment processing is important. We use trusted open source content management systems such as Joomla and Wordpress.
Customers need to feel that they can trust the website they are buying from. Having a shopping cart that clearly shows the checkout process is one way of doing this. Customers like to be able to make changes to their shopping carts or baskets. The consumer likes to feel in control of their order at all times. But any changes they make, the cart needs to update quickly and efficiently. If customers have to work hard to change their order before purchase, they are likely to visit one of your competitors. In fact, if a consumer has to wait more than 8 seconds for a page to load or re-load, they are likely to go elsewhere.
Using The Right Ecommerce Software Including Magento, Zen Cart & Many Others
We believe that any ecommerce web design needs to offer several key things; firstly, simplicity is key although visual appeal is great, it can cloud the page. Customers like a clean, sleek look at the point where they are making their purchase. But thumbnail images of products help customers find what they are looking for, and also serve as a reminder of what they are buying.
Effective ecommerce websites show customers where they are on a website, in other words ease of navigation. Customers also want to know the number of steps involved in the checkout process and where they are in the buying process. Too many ‘steps’ turn potential customers away.
Customers need prompting, reminding them what they need to do and where they need to go. Prompting is a similar principle to ‘calls to action’, used on printed marketing material.
Ecommerce websites also need to be tested and this process needs to be repeated so that you have an idea of what the customer experience is like when using your website, which is why we use Magento, Joomla, Zen Cart, Drupal & Wordpress among others.
We understand that choosing the right web design agency is a must when looking to create a sleek & professional ecommerce website. We offer great web design packages at competitive prices and understand that you need practical and powerful ecommerce websites, with easy to use shopping carts (for you and your customers) which is why we offer our web design development services at a fair price and quick & easy to use solutions.
