Blog

Earlier this year we wrote an article in our blog about the importance of having a mobile friendly website.

Google now recognizes mobile optimised websites and pushes these up the rankings on their listings, if your website is not working on a mobile phone or desktop computer then you may find it slipping down the rankings significantly which means you are less visible to your consumer.

Now more than ever, people are accessing websites from their mobile devices and it has become par for the course that a website is mobile friendly.

Check out these stats from Google:

A brochure website is the online equivalent of your company’s printed marketing material. It’s purpose is to showcase your business, promote your services and generate interest and enquiries.

Here are the key principles involved in designing an effective brochure website that will help sell your company and help your business grow.

We have started the New Year not only working on some exciting projects, but also welcoming some new faces to Brightsite.

Building links to your website is important so it’s important that you understand what they are and why you need them.

Social media channels and a website should work seamlessly together to promote a brand online.

Aside from simply linking to your social media sites from your website there’s plenty you can do to get your social media and website working together.

We have put together some suggestions to help you out....

Brightsite is this week raising awareness of Crohn's Disease and ulcertaive colitis (UC). Brightsite's Managing Director Seb Tucknott suffers from UC and in this blog he tells us more about the condition.

At Brightsite we use a custom content management system (CMS) as standard for all of our websites.

A CMS sits behind the website and is where a client logs into to change content – such as words, pictures and videos – on their website. Our CMSs also allow clients to manage their own onsite SEO, add and delete pages of their website, amend menus, contact details and much more.

One of the most important things about your new website is its design - it’s the design that’s going to draw the eye of any potential customers, the design that’s going to make it easy to use and the design that is going make you stand out from your competitors - so it’s important that you get it right.

We are proud to launch our new brochure package websites make the process of getting a website quicker, cheaper and easier for you. And, to celebrate our 8th birthday we are offering 20% in October and 10% off in November!

Facebook is the most used social media network in the world so it makes sense that you would want to use it to promote your business.

It’s a great way of connecting with current customers - and potential customers that you didn’t even know exist! It’s also a great way to build brand awareness for your company among your target audience.

More and more businesses are realising the benefits of having a blog linked to their website and it’s probably about time that you did too.

There are a number of reasons as to why you should blog and this blog post attempts to cover the basics.

So, you’ve had your new website built, it’s just been launched and now you are sitting back and waiting for the business to start rolling in.

Don’t.

Too many people think by just getting a website for their business they will be inundated with new clients.

Choosing the right web design company to build your new website is an important decision for any company, especially if the bulk of your business is done online.

We all know the basics of preparing yourself for the world of work but sometimes it's easy to overlook some key points when putting yourself forward for your dream job. It's so important to ensure that you do everything you possibly can to improve your chances of success prior to even landing an interview.

It's the request everyone dreads when getting a new website - your web developer wants content from you and you have no idea where to start. You stare at an empty page for hours trying to pen something you are happy with but the words just aren’t flowing.

Many of our clients often wonder how long it will take to build a website and are surprised to find out that the web design process is often quicker than expected.

In short SEO, or Search Engine Optimisation, is the process of making your website visible in search engines. There are lots of different elements that make up SEO and it would be impossible to cover them all in this post, but hopefully this will help to get you started.

This new website has been a long time coming! As a busy web development agency we often find ourselves focusing on our clients' websites and leaving our own projects on the backburner.
