We work with Commission Junction, to develop highly effective co-operative online marketing campaigns with a network of "Affiliates" who work independently to market the clients website in return for a fixed percentage commission.
Affiliate Marketing Programs professionally handled will add up to 30% to top line sales, that should flow through to the bottom line as ADDITIONAL PROFIT. These can be varied i.e. "Money off Coupon", "Cash Backs", Remarketing & Pay for Click Advertising.
By working with Commission Junction, we ensure your program is available to the widest possible network of potential Affiliates, is properly managed and controlled and that as a client takes up very little of your time.

Your Online Advertising Budget Should be and Investment not a Cost!
We understand that it is far easier to spend money than to make it! that's why we treat your advertising budget as if it were our own.
Operating in competitive markets, especially if your website is new and yet to be established, or you just need to attract more potential customers - Pay for Click advertising can often be the best place to start.
As well as advertising on Google Adwords, we utilize Bing, Facebook and increasingly "Remarketing*" in order to increase your reach and to give you the best value.
We work to achieve the lowest "cost per click" for your campaign but we concentrate our efforts on driving "conversions" (orders and enquiries). We use Google Analytics to track the performance in detail and to progressively "fine tune" your campaign to maximise its effectiveness.
We produce monthly reports to track how your money is being spent and the contribution it is making to your business.

Developing stand out websites since 1999, some involving complex programming. In the last 5 years however, the nature of web development has changed dramatically. The vast majority of our sites now take advantage of popular, modern content management software, ie Joomla and Wordpress, which gives access to a vast library of inexpensive components and plugins (rather like the Apps for your phone or tablet) producing tremendous functionality at an attractive cost.
Our development work these days involves mostly customisation of existing software rather than programming from scratch. We employ a number of highly capable specialist developers on both a retained and project basis both in the UK and overseas. In this way, we are able to keep programming costs down without compromising the quality, and can complete projects on shorter time scales.
We prefer to start the web development process with an informal meeting to discuss the objectives of the web site, content & features, review competition and the desired look and feel for the graphic design. We then produce a detailed specification, site plan and fixed price quotation for the project. Once agreed we can can start work.
The first step is usually to start with the graphics which are very personal and subjective. So to give us the best chance of getting it right first time, we insist on client approval of the creative brief which is then issued to a highly experienced and talented graphic designers who we expect to produce outstanding results first time, on time (usually within 2 weeks) and on message. We present a choice of design approaches and would expect to gain approval quickly.
