We only create dynamic websites – we design it then you control it!
There are traditionally a number of problems when people try to create or run their own websites but it is easy to see why it is tempting. Many designers charge anything between fifty and five hundred pounds a month for website maintenance and web designs often average between one and ten thousand pounds (and that does not include e-commerce sites and merchant account fees!).
Taking a short web design course, buying ‘site in the box’ software, book or a cheap online template, getting a friend to help or simply using PowerPoint to get online suggests an easy and cheap alternative.
So why do you need us?
An analogy to this might be that you CAN also make your own clothes or fit your own kitchen or bathroom or mend your own car but although, some lucky individuals may be inherently talented at sewing, building, plumbing or mechanics – the rest of us are probably not! Most of us accept that we would rather pay for a professional, safe, guaranteed and long lasting end product.
Even if you do enjoy D.I.Y in your own home – taking the analogy a little further – would you do the same with your business? Making your own office furniture or hand writing your brochures? If you want your website to be professional, safe, guaranteed and long lasting, you simply need professional help. Your website is your virtual shop window on a wide and busy market. It needs to look GREAT!
Access – by Design offers the perfect solution.
Our professional, published, award winning designers will create a website design to YOUR specification and add your content in full co-operation with you. Then, when your site is ready and you are completely happy with your design, we launch it and hand over the control and its development to you.
During the early days of your website, we give you “hands-on” training and on-the-spot support with an option to extend this period. Only when you are ready do you have to “go it alone” but even then we offer telephone and email after-care, handouts, online help ‘tickets’ and even “refresher” training to keep your website fresh, accessible and working as hard as possible for your business or organisation.
