Reviews
West Coast Web Design did an amazing job on this website. They not only knew the market that we were trying to achieve, but also brought forth ideas and concepts that we never would have thought of. It is well layed out and incredibly well presented. They not only helped with the website, but the customer feedback throughout the process was amazing and helped out with other IT issues, unrelated to the project.
They did an amazing job! 10/10.
West Coast Web design was very responsive given the short time frame for the project. The site aligned very well with our supporting print material and presented our key messages exactly as requested. The few corrections required to the beta version were minimal and were fixed very promptly.
The final site was exactly as we wanted. Great Job !!
I first met Daniel from WCWD in February 2011. I was looking for a web designer that was able to really listen, get a feel for not just the type of business I was setting up but my personality and put together a website that was reflective of these along with other aspects.
It's such a huge thing when your setting up a new business to portray the image, look and story from the start. The advantage of dealing with a web designer one on one, not just becoming a number in a huge company was invaluable!
The experience I have had with West Coast Web Design and Daniel Hockey designing my website has been nothing short of fantastic. Prompt, efficient, professional and great attention to detail. I'm absolutely delighted with the result and the feedback I have had as been amazing!
Thanks Daniel, I would highly recommend you to anyone in need of a website designer.
Jo Taylor
Daniel from west coast web design done an amazing job with our website and we could not be happier. His ability to turn our very vague description into such a professional vision made the job very simple. He had ideas that we hadnt even considered and made the finished product much better than we first anticipated. Very friendly service with super fast results we couldnt be happier!
Would definately reccomend !!
Thanks Again Daniel
Thank you so much for designing our website, it looks absolutely fantastic! We can't believe how much effort you put into supporting Dog Aid Internationl. You have done a wonderful job and we really appreciate everything you have done, and the timely manner in which you do it! We are eternally grateful for your support.
West Coast Web Design did an excellent and professional job. Daniel was very helpful and supportive at directing the design process. Furthermore, when told it needed to be done within 3 weeks, Daniel had no problem in completing it on time.
I have had numerous people from all over the world complimenting me on my website.
I consider Daniel a top notch web designer! He stays current on all issues concerning web design, he is continually educating himself which gives us higher rankings in the search engines.
Daniel is always on top of our needs and responds very quickly. His costs beat anyone we have researched. We feel that we have the best man looking out for us.
Daniel did a great job! This is our first website and we didn't know what to expect. He walked us through the process and helped us each step of the way.
The success of the web site has been beyond our expectations. We receive complements daily from people who visit our site. We could not have asked for a better design.
You should definitely consider West Coast Web Design if you are planning on building a website.
Daniel Hockey
Owner Operator
I have over 10 years experience in the web design industry. West Coast Web Design is the culmination of all of those experiences — good and bad. Being around in the early days of the industry, when it was struggling to find it’s feet, allowed me to observe first hand what not to do. Being a young web designer working for badly managed businesses was the best thing I could have done! I believe those experiences are what will help me most as I strive for success of my own. The key to that success, is the success of your business.
WWDC:
What's your name and position in the company?
West Coast Web Design - Perth:
”Daniel Hockey, Owner Operator”
WWDC:
Describe your company in 5 words.
West Coast Web Design - Perth:
”Honest, Professional, Creative, Dependable, Flexible”
WWDC:
What's your business philosophy?
West Coast Web Design - Perth:
”I pride myself on providing old fashioned service. There are countless web designers to choose from, but I distinguish myself from them on the strength of my client relationships. I treat all of my clients with the utmost respect. My clients know that when they ask for advice they will always get the most transparent and truthfully informative answer. When they ask for something to be done, they know they wont have to ask twice. That is why I use the catch phrase "My Clients Are Happier" — Because I truly believe I offer the best service in Australia.”
WWDC:
How do you get the majority of your business?
West Coast Web Design - Perth:
”Word of mouth.”
WWDC:
Describe how you manage projects from the initial client contact to completion and handover.
West Coast Web Design - Perth:
”Firstly a Photoshop mock-up of the website is designed to give the client an idea of how the website will look. Once approved, the design is then built into a working website which can be reviewed online — allowing the client to request any content changes if needed. When all changes and corrections have been made, it is time to go live and get their business online for all to see.”
WWDC:
What do you think is the most crucial element of creating a good client relationship?
West Coast Web Design - Perth:
”In one word — Honesty.”
WWDC:
How do you manage demanding clients?
West Coast Web Design - Perth:
”I do everything they ask with a smile :) A demanding client is not necessarily a bad client. I prefer to call them "passionate clients".”
WWDC:
If a client was trying to decide between a shortlist of web design companies, how would you recommend they go about selecting the right one for them?
West Coast Web Design - Perth:
”Here are three things to look for. Stability: “Is this designer going to be around in a year or two when I need to make changes to our website?”. I couldn't tell you the amount of work I have gotten from clients whose designer has “just disappeared”. Honesty: If you are speaking to a designer who is up-front, transparent and speaks to you like another human being — you are probably on the right track. Professionalism: Are they qualified? Are they experienced?”
WWDC:
Where do you see your company in 10 years time?
West Coast Web Design - Perth:
”I see my business continuing to provide the high level of customer service it does now. I like being a small web design business and the freedom it gives me to keep things simple and focus on individual clients. I think it was Jerry Maguire that said "The answer is fewer clients. Less dancing." I guess I agree with that amusing philosophy.”
WWDC:
Where do you see the web design industry in the future?
West Coast Web Design - Perth:
”I have absolutely no idea what will happen in the industry in the future, and anyone who says they do is lying! But seriously, the web industry is an ever changing playing field. The most important thing for me is to keep up with design trends and new development technologies so that my clients are never left behind. Again, it is all about looking after my clients.”
WWDC:
What computers do you have use in your offices, PCs or Macs?
West Coast Web Design - Perth:
”Both PC and Mac”
WWDC:
How was your company name chosen?
West Coast Web Design - Perth:
”I wanted something that was easy to remember, self explanatory and down to earth, not pretentious or "geeky". The name West Coast Web Design met that criteria.”
WWDC:
If you were to give your clients one tip on how to get the most from their website what would it be?
West Coast Web Design - Perth:
”Quality of information. I find that whenever I am surfing online looking for a service, I usually pick the business that has the most informative and transparent information on their website. If one business has their prices displayed and the other just states "call now for more information" — I am going to call the business who is confident and transparent enough to display their prices.”
