Most of the sites here were designed by Exa, both Strawberry World sites are collaborations that I had editorial and design control over.

Alchemy A Bournemouth based function band looking for wedding, party and private function engagements. The web site was designed primarily for search engine performance whilst maintaining an attractive design and easy navigation. The Alchemy web site is easily found in the major search engines for relevant phrases has gained a number of high profile bookings for the band. http://www.alchemy-theband.co.uk		Not just design An excellent example of why design alone is not enough: you could have the best site on the internet but if no-one can find it, it might as well be on the moon! Search Engine visibility is therefore the most important aspect of cost effective internet marketing
Crystal Rose: The Happy Medium Crystal Rose is a leading psychic medium specialising in Tarot. Her new web site is informative, attractive and easy to navigate and brings in regular appointments for readings. http://www.thehappymedium.co.uk		Design plus With an exacting brief this site had to convey a spiritualist theme with due sensitivity. Listings and good rankings in major search engines have ensured the success of this site.
Stealer: A Classic Rock Band An effective and sympathetic design evocative of its genre, Stealer's web site is easy and intuitive to navigate. http://www.stealer.biz		SEO Ranks well for relevant key words and phrases producing regular booking enquiries.
Strawberry World's Corporate web site Strawberry World publish high quality online Tourist Destination and Hotel Guides. But their main-stay is producing world-class web sites in 12 languages for the luxury hotel segment. This site describes Strawberry World's business from a hotelier's point of view, listing the things most important to prospective partners. http://www.strawberry-world.biz		Inform The prime term of reference for this site was quick and clear information for the hotel market.
CS Sao Raphael Hotel, Albufeira The CS Sao Raphael Hotel is a good example of a Strawberry World web site. Powerful and punchy, leading edge technology with a booking engine and all in 12 languages. http://www.cssaorafaelsuitehotel.com		CMS: Content Management Systems CMS is a great way to publish content and images when the user has little knowledge of web site creation. A template is created into which almost anyone can add images and text, create new pages, stories and galleries.
Arrowline: Salisbury Mini Buses A clean, simple and informative site that works well, both for the prospective customer and Salisbury Mini Buses. http://www.salisburyminibuses.co.uk		Simple and informative Ranks well for relevant key words and phrases producing regular booking enquiries. Translated into 3 extra languages this site also works well for foreign tourists visiting Salisbury.
Bournemouth and Poole guide Designed originally in 2005 this site contained some great photos. It has now been commercialised and is no longer representitive of my work.		Clean and Effective Originally designed to be clean, clear and informative, this site promoted local hotels.
Classic and Exotic Lingerie Classic and Exotic Lingerie is an example of what can be achieved by farmers who wish to diversify. Classic approached us in order to increase internet traffic to their mail order site. Almost as soon as the new site went live "Our business virtually doubled overnight" said proprietor P White. UPDATE: Now managed by Classic and changed beyond recognition		Extra traffic The Classic and Exotic e-commerce website is not just framed but also PHP with query strings in the page names, both serious impediments to search engine spiders. We do not have access to the code so to overcome this, we produced a satellite web site that performs well in search engines and feeds traffic to the e-commerce site.
