We recently worked with Coventry-based business Bursting Bins to create a website for their new venture. 

 

Owner Joel got the idea for Bursting Bins when he became fed up with his overflowing bin after his local council stopped weekly collections. Now, he provides regular bin collections for those in the same predicament, ensuring that nobody has to put up with rubbish piling up outside their house. 

Hypnosenses is the business of Birmingham based hypnotherapist Laura Smith, who offers a wide range of hypnosis-based treatments including weight management programs, smoke-free sessions, karma therapy, and treatments for stress and anxiety. 

 

Understanding the importance of having an online presence, Laura had attempted to set her own website up using a DIY site builder. Unfortunately, as is often the case with do-it-yourself templated websites, it was a difficult, time-consuming process that failed to produce the professional results Laura needed to promote her business. 

Karibu Coffee House is a newly established café in the Digbeth area of Birmingham. Independently run, the coffee shop specialises in premium coffees and chai teas, offering customers an authentic African drinking and dining experience with speciality ingredients sourced from Tanzania. 

 

As a new business, the café was keen to make an impact with a professional website where customers could learn more about the coffee house and the drinks that they offer. They approached us about creating a stylish new website for Karibu Coffee House, and of course we were only too happy to help. 

We recently created a brand new website for JW Rudge & Co Ltd, experienced electro-platers and metal finishers based in Smethwick. 

 

A family-run business that has been operating since 1958, JW Rudge specialise in a number of metal plating services, and work with a wide range of industries. To promote these services, the company had set up a website, but unfortunately this was outdated and ineffective, largely because they were not able to edit and update it themselves. 

As mobile technology continues to develop at an incredible rate and mobile usage increases phenomenally year on year, responsive web design is no longer a choice it's a necessity. 

 

Yet remarkably, the majority of small to medium sized businesses in the UK still don't have a responsive website. 

A newly formed playgroup offering classes and entertainment for children, Toddler City were in need of a website that would help them reach local parents and show their credentials. They wanted a site that was fun, colourful, and easy to use. 

 

Our designers took the brief and created a bright and lively website that expertly captures the feel of the business. The colours are bold and in your face, with a rainbow of primary shades that match both the company’s branding and the photos they supplied. 

A: It is not possible to delete negative reviews that have been left on your Google My Business listing. However, if you receive a fake negative review, e.g. from a competitor or a disgruntled employee, it is possible to flag this for removal.

This week’s favourite website, as chosen by the design team, is boxmoorsteakhouse.co.uk 

 

A stylish design, this site features a fixed side menu and a chic colour scheme of dark grey, gold, and white. These colours tie the website in with the restaurant’s existing branding, whilst also invoking the décor of the steakhouse itself with its wood panelling and ambient lighting. 

 

Simple and contemporary in appearance, the site presents all the need-to-know information in clearly defined content sections, with strong typography and professional photography to inform the user’s journey.
