Portfolio of Websites

Visage's website was redesigned in 2009, moving from a static to a CMS (Content Management System) to allow the owners and staff to maintain the site.

The redesigned Visage website has a classical and sophisticated colour and typography style, the various sections use custom templates, coloured for identity. The owners upload and publish their photo-galleries and use the Mailshot email newsletter system to effectively attract visitors.

The Beeches Hotel (Norwich) is part of a Golden Triangle group of hotels, restaurants and cafés, owned and operated by the same people as St Giles House.

The Beeches website was built to a tight deadline and was online within days of approval - just shows what can be achieved with cooperation and dedication. All hospitality media (online or offline) likes to show more than a hint of style and sometimes (as in this example) a simple yet sophisticated design will allow the content or product to take centre stage. Brochures and hotel stationery complete the package for The Beeches; all using a style that will run throughout the Golden Triangle group.

Top quality photography is essential for any accommodation publicity - well lit and composed shots show off properites to their very best. High resolution images and 360° Virtual Tours are used on this site to show the quality of interior design.

The site is built to Web Standards to ensure success with Google; a crucial factor for websites competing in this field. The site benefits too from Google Directory listings and the owners make good use of analysis of visitors by frequent reports from Google Analytics. The site is well maintained (see site maintenance) so that it runs safely and efficently.

The website has a custom-built template which compliments a defined style which carries through into other online and offline media, such as Mailshot (email marketing system) and printed flyers, menus and advertising in magazines etc.
