The Private View

Conceived after a meeting with the production team of 'How to Look Good Naked', this most recent venture for the TGD Group of companies needed an elegant cutting-edge site featuring an array of the latest technologies, including an embedded Flash video and attractive gallery effects. It was also important that this site, whilst being distinct, had the same feel as their other three sites. Working closely with the client we were able to produce a site unique in it's feel whilst retaining their corporate image.

Sutton & District Training

With our sister company, Mosaic Art & Design, already employed to revamp this client's printed material; we needed to create a website that was corporate in that the branding was recognisable to those who had only seen their printed material; but at the same time sufficiently flexible in it's design to contain a lot of information whilst being intuitive. The other challenge was that the site had to appeal to both learners, employers and people within the Training Industry. A clean, modern and fresh design was called for; making use of large graphics and images.

Green Drainage Services

Tasked to provide a clean easy to navigate site, attractive to both Business and Residential customers. It was felt that a news section would provide some 'sticky' content to encourage visitors to keep returning to the site. A testimonials page was suggested as customers are often initially wary of contacting tradespeople. The site clearly sets out the services that Green Drainage Services are able to offer to both domestic and business customers. The clients' contact details are displayed on every page in addition to a dedicated 'contact' page which includes a simple enquiry form.

Pat Delaney

Working as both a freelance showjumping instructor and BSJA registered coursebuilder, this clients' website needed to clearly distinguish between the two separate areas of his business. A short resume of his career was included in the home page to add value to those visitors who were not aware of his achievements and experience. A page featuring photographs of courses that he had built and another with videos of courses being jumped was also included. A 'links' page was utilised to encourage reciprocal links back.

Emma Wickerson

Designed to encourage sponsorship for this 'up and coming' young showjumper; it was felt that the site needed to be professional in it's appearance as well as providing the facility for Emma's forthcoming competitions and results to be displayed. Again links from the homepage not only encourage reciprocal links, but also adds credence to the proposition by detailing her experience from a young age.

Boogie Nights

Built to reflect large banners designed by our sister company Mosaic Art & Design, this site needed to be both simple and eyecatching with an element of 'fun.' The client was keen to make the information clear and not full of jargon. A 'party advice' page was also added as was a testimonials page. Again, a links page was also included, not only to encourage reciprocal links, but also to highlight some of the venues where he had worked and also to introduce other complementing businesses with whom he had worked.

Beechwood Riding School

One of our very first clients, this website is now on it's third reincarnation, having recently benefited from a major 'makeover' to keep it looking modern and fresh. A regularly updated news and diary events page means regular customers keep coming back, but also gives first-time visitors an idea of some of the activities available. The gallery page has always proved popular with new and existing clients alike, however this time we set up a 'Bebo' site for the client which allows the younger riders to become more involved, posting their own pictures and comments.

Share-a-Horse

With the aim of producing a fun, colourful, lively site; aimed predominately at children, but also to appeal to adults. A comprehensive 'gallery' section includes both candid photos and portraits to show not only the animals but also give an idea of some of the fun activities undertaken. The home page gives clear pricing and terms as well as some images showing different features of the business. Again the inclusion of a Bebo site (designed and maintained by one of the older children) appeals to the younger sharers whilst making them feel 'included' in the business.

Other Clients

Below are some examples of other sites designed and maintained by WebDesigns2000 in the past.

Countryman Vehicles

A complete re-design of this customer's website to reflect their changing stock profile and their appointment as an approved RAC warranty supplier was required. A fresh new look was needed whilst being accessible. A new more descriptive domain name was also purchased to improve search engines rankings. A dedicated stock page was created for each vehicle incorporating a ten image slideshow plus important information for each vehicle, such as insurance group etc. A 'site photo' was also used on the home page to reassure potential customers.

Mosaic Art & Design

Our sister company, Mosaic Art & Design, needed a website that emphasised the two distinct aspects of it's business; as both a Graphic Design studio and to showcase Lesley's paintings and drawings. These two areas can be accessed separately by creating two 'microsites', with the ability to access each individually using an elegant and simple navigation technique from the homepage. Both areas are quite different in terms of their design, recognising the different nature of the visitors.

TGD Group

We have carried out a recent revamp of two of the three websites for the TGD group of companies: TGD Weddings, TGD Photos and TGD Features.

As a photographer, it is important that their websites are not only informative but also artistic in their presentation whilst being easy to navigate.

We were able to work closely with the client on all three sites to help realise his own designs and themes. Although all three sites promote the client's work as a photographer, each has a different target audience. It was important, therefore, that each reflected TGD's corporate image whilst working on a standalone basis.
