As an established business they wanted to keep their existing URL and SEO ranking, which was absolutely no problem for us.

Accuracy and attention to detail were critical to the design of the new website. We knew that we needed to get the balance of modern and authentic right. This became central to the rest of the brand.

Our core aims were to produce a website that truly represented David and for his clients to view him as an ‘old trusted friend’.

“Sarah did an excellent job refreshing our website and enhancing the brand. She directed us to create more content with videos, testimonials and information papers to aid SEO and position ourselves as knowledgeable professionals in the industry. The website now looks incredible with movement and colour changes when scrolling through the pages. It’s also now much more useful to our clients and showcases what we can do!
