Some ideas

Struggling for some inspiration? Not quite sure what type of website you need?

Well here's some ideas that might help you get started.

No substitute for having a chat, but we've picked a few different types of business and the kind of website you might want to consider - just to start the process

Web presence

This is the approach to use if you simply want to advertise your business - a bit like a classified ad, but with pictures. It consists of a small number of pages (perhaps just one) describing who you are, what you do (perhaps with some examples) and how to get in contact.

This is a good start for a sole trader or personal business wanting to stand out from a conventional directory listing - a distinct presence on the web that you can mention in your marketing and potentially save money on printed flyers

Here's an example of a site we've done recently

Brochure

This expands on the simple web presence pages to give more detail about your business and the products it sells. It allows you to keep your product list up-to-date without the expense and hassle of printed brochures

Photo gallery

For the more artistic business, where presentation is crucial

Apartment reservation and booking

This is ideal for Bed and Breakfast properties or holiday apartments.

In addition to the 'brochure' approach of advertising each apartment, you can also provide your guests with a picture of the latest availability, allow them to book the apartment of their choice, and take a deposit.

For the busy host this substantially reduces the need to handle the day-to-day administration, leaving you free to get on with running the apartments and ensuring your guests have a great time
