Website design, development, optimisation, programming, maintenance and hosting

Since the millennium the user's expectations of a website have gone through a paradigm shift.

Better computing technology and increased broadband have enabled web designers and developers to create more interactive, and hence, more useful websites. This has significantly improved the way users obtain the information they require.

Consequently, the sales process has changed too. People these days first go to a company's website before calling or making a sales enquiry. Although print advertisements and mailers are still important, the prospective customers and clients prefer to visit the website, go through various pages of information, educate themselves about the product or service, and only then make a business enquiry through phone or email. The more information you provide them, the more you can convince them.

Not only that, an information-rich, interactive website can expose your website to hundreds of thousands of visitors trying to find what you can offer. You can easily say that your website needs to be at the core of your overall marketing strategy.

Whether you need to update and upgrade your existing website, or you need a new website, a new design, or an online interactive web-based business application, Titman Firth can help you.

Examples of recent websites we have produced include Peterborough Greyhound Stadium, Verridian plc, Beebys Properties, PJHLaw which includes a blog built into the site, Fastrax, and Beebys. Beebys is also an example of a website we are optimising where phrases such as 'cleaning peterborough' and 'peterborough landscaping' are currently reaching positions 1 and 2 on page 1 of Google  (January 2010).

Further examples of websites and search engine optimisation results are available on request.

The importance of a natural positioning on major search engines is now well known: it's called "organic SEO". Getting ranked well on search engines for the right expressions/keywords is of paramount importance to your online success. No matter how outstanding your product or service is, unless people don't know about it or cannot find it on the Internet, you will not be able to sell it.

To help you get targeted traffic -- lots of it -- along with our website design and development services we also offer you website optimisation packages. For selected phrases and keywords we can make your website obtain high rankings on all major search engines. Our packages start at as little as £150 per month for your selected phrases.

Our enterprise optimisation packages include:

  • Search engine optimisation (SEO)
  • Linking strategy
  • Targeted search phrases
  • Pay per click management (PPC)

The success of your website depends on a balanced mix of design, development, search engine optimisation and continuous online promotion. They are all inter-linked and they all need to be monitored using scientific methods. In a timely manner your design, your markup and your content should be updated to so that search engines know yours is an active, continuously evolving website, having the latest information.

Many of our clients benefit from our dual approach of continually maintaining and updating the website and constantly keeping it optimised for search engines. Most importantly we offer this facility in-house and can provide many examples of phrases we have taken from no-where to top ranking positions on Google and other popular search engines.

The techniques we use are as follows:

  • Search phrase identification planning
  • Creating well-defined meta data
  • Structure expansion
  • Content optimisation and copywriting
  • Link building
