Web Design Blackpool – JMC Website Design
How to develop a greater understanding of your business on the web, by keeping one step ahead of the competition and by having a website that brings the real - measurable - results you want.
Choosing the right supplier of Web Design in Blackpool can be a tough call. You need to pick the right people to suit your needs, be sure that your business is in trustworthy hands, whilst at the same time being aware of your budget.
JMC Website Design is a service that is much more than simply web design, it works with you and your business to establish a strong online presence, which grows and evolves with you. It helps you to develop a working knowledge of the web and its technologies. We all know technology changes all the time and what might be new today may be old hat a few months down the line.
Now imagine if you had the kind of web design service, a life line as it were, that kept you up to date and competitive in the online market, and your finger on the pulse. The kind of web design service that is ongoing long after your website is built, to help you maintain an effective and profitable website, and keeps you in touch with your web savvy customers.
According to a recent UK survey, 43% of UK firms don’t measure website effectiveness. 62% of companies also admitted to not taking any external advice about the effectiveness of their website. With JMC Website Design on board, you'd already be way ahead of these business owners.
Having your business on the web should be an integral part of your marketing plan, but it should also be considered a living, breathing, evolving entity in its own right.
Why JMC Website Design?
Companies shouldn't be left with their website - holding the baby? - with no idea of how to grow it, nurture it and make use of it effectively. 33% of UK businesses admit to neglecting their website. If only they had a knowledgeable professional available to advise them, and to keep their web design fresh and working!
Now there are a few types of Web Design businesses to consider when you decide to get your business established on the web, some of which you may have considered already:
- Large Web Design Agencies
Not really feasible for the everyday small to medium business. Because of their size they generally have to charge a much higher rate. You may also lose out by not working closely with the person who is actually building your website. - Freelance Designers
A piece of advice would be to not get a friend of your business to build your website on the cheap, unless they really know what they doing and can be called upon reliably later to fix any unexpected problems down the line. - IT Service Agencies
Whilst more affordable, they tend to lack creative design skills, so your website can look dated or not very appealing to your customers. If you value the professional appearance of your business online this option should be avoided. - Advertising Agency
Generally these types of companies have their own motives for their potential customers. You should make sure you know exactly what kind of after care service they would provide to you.
How has JMC Website Design Helped Blackpool Business?
I recently worked with a client just outside of Blackpool. Jeremy and his wife Annelies required a well designed web presence to raise awareness of their UK based basketball camp, and an online e-commerce facility to sell goods to their registrants. They were part of nbccamps.com, but wanted a presence of their own for the UK market.
Their website www.nbccamps.co.uk now has a top position on Google for the term ‘basketball camp UK’, out of 2,770,000 total results. The number of visits per month has increased into its hundreds now they have an established web presence. Here is what Jeremy has said about the overall web design service:
"Jason provided me with a clean, professional looking website after a brief consultation. He was very thorough in his approach, creative and helpful. He was enthusiastic about how it would look and very keen to help in any additions or changes. I would wholeheartedly recommend Jason to anyone wishing to develop their web ideas further - he is a diamond in the making!"
I have also had the opportunity to work with clients from overseas, in particular the Work and Travel Company based in Sydney, Australia. They’re a recruitment agency catering for backpackers who require temporary or part time work. They had a website for their existing customers, but not one to attract new business. www.worktravelcompany.com now has a page 2 position on Google out of 63,100,000 for the term ‘Work and Travel Australia’. Mike Parsons, the general manager said:
"He created a new website for our business, which has increased our internet traffic and boosted our company profile. This has also enabled us to pre sell our program directly to travellers from overseas.
I worked closely with Jason on this project and I found him to be extremely helpful, creative and flexible. I would have no hesitation in using his services again."
I still maintain a good relationship with Jeremy and the team from the Work and Travel Company. I also keep them up to date on important and relevant web related news with my monthly informational newsletter.

I provide Web Design in Blackpool. That’s because I like to meet and interact with the businesses I work with face to face. I find it especially exciting if a business is keen to really develop a good presence on the web, is curious about expanding their general knowledge of business within the internet, and how that can affect their online success.

All of these packages include FREE web hosting and domain name for the first 12 months of your website going live.
