Reviews
I found many Companies over charging for what they do until i got recommended to AS (web) Design. They have given me a professional looking website, blog and twitter service which is great. They have been easy to work with and affordable - highly recommended.
I feel confident that i now have the right team working for me providing my online presence with the website linked to the blog and updates twittered. I just do not have the time to achieve what they have, i would also never have done it as well as they have!!
Thanks guys
AS Web Design were fantastic, i had a small budget but have a big vision, they are working with me to create the website i want to promote local tradesmen in Gloucestershire and generate affiliate marketing income. We are at early stages but i like their relaxed nature and dedication. Highly recommneded A++
Easy to deal with, on time which we like, did not speak in geek language (sorry) and we would recommend. So far the website has already paid for itself nice one. We do not know anything about websites or the internet really but had everything explained so even we could understand, have forgotten now but as long as the emails and phone calls keep coming in i do not really care.
I have decided to go for a website as BT could not get my advert right leaving me with some spare advertising budget. I am have been impressed with the way i have been dealt with and what i have got for my money - certainly recommended as i thought a website would cost a lot more money so i was pleasantly surprised. I have had a couple of inquiries and my website is very new. I would recommend them definitely. I am very happy with the out come of my website and looking forward to it growing in the future.
Well the main thing i would like to say about Adam & Luke and AS Web Design is this: I was a start up business doing digital aerial installation and other related services in Newcastle, i dealt mainly with Adam via email only and because of the website and leaflet design they have done my start up has been successful. I can not explain how chuffed i am with everything and appreciate what has been done for me and my new business that is going strength to strength - i will be expanding my website soon!! Thanks so much guys.
I have known Adam from AS Web Design for a while so can personally recommend him and his Company as honest and reliable and unbeatable i reckon in terms of cost for website and what you get in return. I love my website he is just waiting for me to take a few more pictures which i am doing! The website was done quickly but professionally and he understood what my business is all about. i love it superb.
We wanted a website to reflect the large contracts and clients we deal with, not hanging a new door for Mr Jones down the street. We explained what we wanted and showed examples to AS Web Design, the end result was better than what we have expected, and we would recommend these guys as we have been let down by previous so called web designers. They delivered on time, on budget and kept us informed at every step. Brilliant guys A+++
Ad & Luke at AS Web Design have provided me with a fantastic website that has made 10 times what i paid in 3 months! I have stopped Yellow Pages Directory advertising as everyone seems to use the internet these days. Anyway these guys guided me through my web design, understood my business and what i am all about and provided a website that works just as they promised. I would highly recommend them to all other tradesmen in Gloucestershire, oh and why not the UK! Well done guys, oh they also done my business cards and letterheads bringing my Company image up. thanks.
I was recommended to this small web design Company as i knew i needed a website but was faced with so much choice and jargon! They deliver the design, took time to understand my business and the results surpassed my expectations especially for the money. They included a logo design into the website, although i opted not to have a properly designed logo i was impressed with what they did for me. It was done pretty fast, they consulted me at every step, i am very happy and have already recommended them to others. Thanks guys.
Adam Stacey
Senior web designer
I have designing effective websites for many years and have also been a successful marketing & salesman for large Companies. This various experience has given me an understanding of what type of online presence will work for our clients.
Luke
Web Designer & coder
Fresh our Gloucestershire Uni Luke is a valuable asset to the Company. Now working self sufficiently on web design, website coding and seeing new clients he finds himself very busy.
WWDC:
What's your name and position in the company?
AS (web) Design:
”Adam and i am the owner”
WWDC:
Describe your company in 5 words.
AS (web) Design:
”honest effective affordable fun creative”
WWDC:
What's your business philosophy?
AS (web) Design:
”Our business philosophy is quite simple - We design and provide our clients with an online presence that is effective for their business and vision. We keep the main focus in mind when making all design, features/functionality and all other choices for websites, blogs etc. Focus as in "generate sales leads" or "showcase our portfolio"”
WWDC:
Describe your office environment.
AS (web) Design:
”We are a small team that can all work anywhere in the World such is technology these days! However we have a small office in Gloucester for two of us and a network of others across the World. We have a fair amount of PC power and some top spec laptops so we have no trouble running our software. We have "job bags" for all of our clients we like to keep everything simple!”
WWDC:
Describe how your team interact and work together.
AS (web) Design:
”We work hard, we have fun and we are creative. We share ideas and research for new technology for website code. We communicate by talking, mobiles, email, text and skype, yahoo, msn!! many ways. We also have folders where we can leave files and work for each other to view. We also play xbox when we need to wind down.”
WWDC:
What makes you different from other web design companies?
AS (web) Design:
”Well we have a focus of providing our clients with an effective online presence, many other web designers and/or companies seem to lose sight of this. For example there is no point in having a complicated flash website that many people might not be able to navigate easily and the search engines can not find! We are also affordable for the results our clients get back. ALL our clients make more money than they ever spent on the website/blog normally within 6 months. How many can say that?”
WWDC:
How do you get the majority of your business?
AS (web) Design:
”referrals now we have built up a good client base and those who find online.”
WWDC:
Describe how you manage projects from the initial client contact to completion and handover.
AS (web) Design:
”We arrange a meeting where possible to understand the business and what the website has to achieve. We fill out a client form detailing branding (or lack of) what is agreed and we set timescales for completion. We make sure the client understands what info they are required to get to us, and we help where ever we can. We create a job bag for the client and a folder within our document system to store all info. We then complete all works and have a long and productive relationship with our client becoming there web design and graphic design partners.”
WWDC:
What do you think is the most crucial element of creating a good client relationship?
AS (web) Design:
”honesty and communication.”
WWDC:
How do you manage demanding clients?
AS (web) Design:
”We always outline what we are going to do and how we are going to achieve that in an approx time period. We can show this at any time to a client to remind them of our responsibilities and theres. We always prove our worth so even demanding clients end up trusting our judgement and become less demanding, it just takes time and proof. ”
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?
AS (web) Design:
”simple - contact us
”
WWDC:
Where do you see your company in 10 years time?
AS (web) Design:
”keeping up with technology ensuring all our clients are the front of internet queue for there business and marketplace. We would obviously foresee huge growth in our client base.”
WWDC:
Where do you see the web design industry in the future?
AS (web) Design:
”Much the same as it is now except the whole online presence for Companies will become way more than just a website, it is already getting that way hence our blog service. ”
WWDC:
What computers do you have use in your offices, PCs or Macs?
AS (web) Design:
”PC”
WWDC:
How was your company name chosen?
AS (web) Design:
”My initials and what we do”
WWDC:
If you were to give your clients one tip on how to get the most from their website what would it be?
AS (web) Design:
”Ok a good tip that has recently been beneficial to one of my clients is this: If you provide products to a client like patio's, fencing, landscaping etc then have a really good portfolio page which you can get potential clients to look at whilst you measure up. ;)”
