It has been a few months since our last update, sorry about that. We have been working hard for several clients and on our new Facebook page (LIKE!). But we are back on the road with our 1972 VW and ready for some new projects. One of the things we do while we are travelling is building websites and we believe we have a unique approach to building websites. Our experience has taught us that we can build a technically advanced website for clients from anywhere in the world. What makes us unique is that we are traveling while we are working. We travel through amazing countries that have lower cost of living. Our rates are lower as well. Far more important than the money we charge for a website, is that we love our customers. Making a customer happy is what sometimes breaks our travel plans, what makes us drive an extra hour to reach a good WiFi connection for that Skype call, or makes us skip things because we promised it would be finished. Making customers happy by delivering what we promised: a beautiful and functional website.
If your visitors don’t go where you want them to go, your website doesn’t do its job. Where to start you’d think? We will help you to improve further by using our listening skills. We will learn everything there is to know about you, your mission, your company and what it has to convey to your visitors. We believe when a user visits your website, we want him or her instantly feel what your company is about. Senses combined: fresh design, short and clear texts, beautiful imagery and easy interaction with the website. When your visitors like what they experience in the first 3 seconds and are still looking at your site, you want them to do one of these three basic things:
- we want them to click
- we want them to buy
- we want them to read
This “Rule Of Three” as we like to call it, is simple and is the basis for determining the goals for every website we build. The process we use is refined to bring out the very best of your ideas into your website. We have a saying: “You are going to be staring at your website for a long time to come. When we are done with your website, you have to love it. If not, we will work on it until we get it right.”
wordpress development
We are experts at building websites with WordPress. WordPress is the most popular content management system on the planet for building websites. Whether you are a small business or an established company, WordPress can scale to meet your needs. We chose WordPress, because it takes us out of the loop. WordPress is extremely easy to use and you can update your website yourself. WordPress is open-source, so the software is mainly free to use and gets updated frequently throughout the year. WordPress is stable, secure, infinitely customizable and Google loves it! This is the last website software you will ever need.
user experience design
Everything has to make sense. We use research, past experience and metrics to determine how users will behave on your website. We tailor your website to the appropriate customer types and use specific calls to action that will be relevant to those users. User experience design is about getting the junk out of the way, clearing the path and making things obvious. It takes a lot of time and money to get users to your website, so creating a user experience that’s transparent and effortless to get visitors to do what we want them to do, is the ultimate goal.
responsive web design
Your website needs to be accessible from anywhere on any device. Customers and clients have access to the web everywhere. They can now view the web on their smartphone, tablet, laptop, desktop and even on their TV. Once more, they travel between devices. So, they may view your website at work on their desktop, then at lunch on their smartphone and then at home on their tablet. It’s imperative that we create a user experience that is the same across all devices. This prevents users from getting lost and increases conversion on your website. Every website we build is responsive. It’s not optional. Doesn’t cost extra. It’s built in – automatically.
If you are looking for a new website or a revision of your current one, these are the months for you. We are traveling through marvelous countries with affordable cost of living and this means our rates are also lower (starting at only 750 euro’s). What is more beautiful than getting to know those adventures of long term travel and working with someone who dares to combine the two worlds. Remember, we are making money to be able to travel. Meanwhile we spend it helping local entrepreneurs with the money we make. It is money well spent three ways!
