About Phoenix
Our first step on the path of web design was back in 2005 starting with a simple blog. With an established artistic background and a new found interest in HTML, this hobby gradually progressed onto bigger things. Skills and qualifications in art and design combined with a knowledge of programming, testing, HTML and CSS more than qualifies us for the web design world, but as they say - the proof of the pudding is in the eating - so why not have a look at our portfolio?
First impressions count
When surfing the internet, it takes just a matter of seconds for the average person to decide whether they will stop and look at a site or continue browsing. Your website will need to convey your message clearly whilst, of course, being aesthetically pleasing.
It is also very important that your site is structured in such a manner that visitors are able to locate information quickly. At Phoenix we strive to produce websites that are crisp and uncluttered with straightforward navigation. We test the finished product in five of the current main browsers (IE6, Firefox, Opera, Netscape and Safari) to ensure the site's compatability with these programmes in order to maximise its accesability to the viewing public.
Our approach
It is our aim to provide all our clients with a unique, bespoke website that they can be proud of. We will keep in contact with you throughout each stage of the design process, consulting you on choices regarding all aspects of the build, from layout and graphics, to fonts and colour schemes. We will, of course, guide you and make suggestions as to the best look for your site, but ultimately the choice of how your website looks is entirely yours.
The design process
First of all we'll need to discuss your requirements, over the phone, via email, or in person - whichever suits you best. We will cover topics such as how many pages you want and what you'd like to call them, what message it is that you want to convey to the site's viewers, and design features such as colour schemes etc.
If you're undecided on any of these points, don't worry! We will be able to advise you in the first instance and as you become more familiar with how things work, you can chime in with any changes you'd like to see.
