| Welcome. The internet, and in particular the world wide web, has given us all a new way of working - if we want to. Undoubtedly there have been some large companies that have failed to make much of an impression on the web, whereas there are small companies that have had a runaway success and have seen their business develop. Where you fit in is anyone's guess. But you can be sure that if you don't have an electronic presence you will be missing out on potential customers. The fact that you are a visitor to this site indicates that you have an interest in setting up our own website or else have one that needs a bit of a face-lift. Have a good look around our site and get in touch. Hover over the centre navigation arc for brief descriptions; click on them to get more information. |

Your first prerogative is to run your business. So
when you are ready to make your mark on the web, we will make it simple for
you. If you've already got your own site, we can still help you. Our services:
|
| What we can do for you |
| By working with you we'll help you
reach all those un-tapped customers out there: site audit: check meta tags, search to determine how high up the hits list the site appears web site spring clean: some sites have been around for a while and they need bringing up to date; not necessarily using sexy new techniques, but it might just need a more modern look or speeding up a little (get rid of unecessary gifs, organise the layout with proper navigation, hot spots and buttons etc.) ongoing site maintenance: this could include periodic updates with new material or new features being added. We could do this for you as part of a maintenance contract or on a per job basis. feedback: customer feedback is important, not just of your products but also how easily they managed to find what they were looking for. So we can provide feedback forms for your customers to communicate with you: mailing lists, surveys, voting. |
| Whatever you want, we will try to accommodate your
requirements. It is your business aim that forms the inspiration for our
strategy in designing your site. We can take your existing promotional
materials and build around that or else start from scratch, working with you to
get the exact look and feel, bringing it all together. Click for more on our design approach. |
| Our design approach |
| We will take your ideas and will
develop a layout to complement them. Using simple navigation techniques, we can
let your customer find what they are looking for, as well as direct them to
things you want them to see. If you are not sure how you want your site to look, but you have seen another site you like, let us know. For copyright reasons we can't copy the design, but we'll find out from you what you like about it and build a page around the idea. If you want to link your sites to other ones, for example to manufacturers' on-line catalogues, then we can do that. If you want others to have links to your site, we can help with that too. Then when all that's done, and you are happy with the result, we will work with you to choose special keywords that the search engines will use to direct new customers to your site. |
| Although the web is new, design, layout, markup
languages and building user interfaces is not. We have done all this and more,
consistently meeting deadlines and satisfying clients support issues. Click to find out more. There is more, much, much more ... and don't expect us to be modest, but what you see is what you get. |
| Our roots |
| We started working for mainframe clients in the
'70s, building menu-driven systems years before the personal computer, let
alone the internet and the world wide web, was even thought of. Largely
self-taught, we have progressed through various operating systems and languages
to where we are today. We are technicians at heart. Programmers, if you like. And because we learnt our trade from the bottom up, we feel that we are in a strong position to intuitively know what clients needs are. We understand optimisation, speed and maintainability and the importance of them because we are users as well. We can assure you of a high degree of service, driven by a level of quality and professionalism that has been developed over the last 25 years working with clients. We like blowing our own trumpet. Because we know we are good. Welcome to #9Dream. |

| You will need someone to host your web
site. This means that the text, code, scripts and pictures that make up your
web site will have to be stored on a computer linked to the internet so that
everyone can access your site. There are companies that offer very cheap or
even free space on their internet servers, but often you will find yourself
paying for hidden extras and not always give you the good deal you were
expecting. We offer a full web hosting service in a state of the art UK data centre. Click to find out about #9Dream Hosting. |
| Hosting your web site |
| The site will be hosted in a secure
environment at our preferred hosting partner, HostEurope. The hosting period is
for a minimum of 12 months and will be paid for at the beginning of each
period. At each 12-month interval you will have the opportunity to renew the
hosting. For a small business, hosting cost for the year is £150 (plus vat). For a personal web site - a hobby or family tree, perhaps - hosting is charged at £100 (plus vat) for the year. |
| What's in a domain name ? Thousands of new domain names are being resistered every day, so decide on a domain name before it's too late. Providing it is still available, you could give your site the same name, or an abbreviated form, as your company. Or else you could push the boat out and call it something completely different - some say that by using a name such as 'yellowturtle' you have a better chance of being remembered. We can help you with this. Click for our price list. |
