This one is sure to start a debate.  It’s no secret that smart phones and apps have changed our lives, with more users navigating the web for information.  As a good marketer you’ve probably already pondered how to best get involved, with an App or a Mobile Optimised Website.  Whilst it might seem the app is the best way forward, for small businesses and entertainers, let’s explore why a mobile optimised site but be more beneficial to you right now.  (more…)

David has given my website the makeover it deserved transforming what was a very dull and flat site into something I’m now really proud of.

I have to commend him not just on his creativity but also his patience as a teacher.  He has helped me navigate my way around the site so that I’m now confident about adding and changing content on my own.  I’m telling all my colleagues and friends to use Florence Road.

We’ve just deployed our very first countdown timer on the Port Fairy Folk Festival Website.  Many thanks to Keith Wood for posting such a brilliant tutorial.  For those technical and willing to give it a shot head over to Keith’s website. His tutorial is one of the easiest to follow that we came across.

Websites needn’t be as complicated as people make them out to be.

We build websites using a WordPress Content Management System, arguably the world’s best and easiest CMS, and then we teach you to update it.

You don’t just get a website. You learn a new skill.

Wordpress
It’s the #1 Content Management System, running more websites than any other. It’s free, it’s powerful, it’s flexible, and we love every single little line of code.

Design and Branding
Our eyes are on the web all day every day, and with 10+ years experience, we’ve got a good eye for design. Bring your own, or we’ll get the paint brushes out.

Social Ready
You website should be the hub that feeds the social networks. We sync up your various social profiles, and offer automated posting and feeding.

Hosting and Domains
We don’t own giant server racks, but we do know how it all works. You can bring your own hosting and domain, or we’ll sort if for you for a very small admin fee.

Training
We teach people how to run their website which minimises agency and designer fee’s. We also provide self help video’s so you can keep on keeping on.

Support
We publish self help video’s and best practice articles, but if that’s not enough we’re always an email or phone call away.
Our clients rave about it.

Prices for our services vary depending on what you require.

We can bend as low as a few hundred, we can work by an hourly rate or we can agree on a project fee. Let’s talk about what you need.
