Reviews
A very good service was received from Bytebox yet again. The young, dynamic and creative team are always happy to help and come up with some excellent design ideas. If you are looking for a professional website, with minimum fuss to build, then contact the team at Bytebox to help you. They will sort everything out for you, you just need to provide some content for them to work from.
Excellent communication throughout the design process with the lead designer, not the office junior!
In the short time the website has been online, it has already generated several enquiries and many of these have been converted into firm bookings thanks to the design and layout of the site.
The website also ranks highly in Google searches thanks to the dedicated SEO team at Bytebox who know all the tricks of the trade and will not rip you off like many other companies.
Overall I am very impressed with the quality of service provided and would not hesitate to recommend Bytebox to anyone looking for an excellent web design company.
We couldn't have asked for a better website.
The design was very engaging for both new visitors and members of our group. We had a good relationship with Dan who was able to support us throughout the build of the website, guiding us and pointing us in the right direction. We were given a members area and full access to add information and photos to our site.
Very friendly, and very helpful. Thanks guys!
I am pleased with the services provided by ByteBox. My website was done on time and on budget. I also liked the design of my website.
Bytebox did not keep me informed at all stages of the webdesign process.
The cost was very reasonable. Bytebox would be very good for a startup business.
Very good customer service. Full consultation during the design stage and continued support with adding addition details to the site. Very good value for money. Would highly recommend to others.
Dan Price
Lead Web Developer and Designer
Dan is a W3Schools certified PHP Developer, and has many years experience in web design, having made a website opened royalty, numerous e-commerce sites, and countless brochure websites. Dan is a graduate from Hull University and has great experience in design and development of print and web solutions.
WWDC:
What's your name and position in the company?
ByteBox:
”My name's Dan, and I'm proprietor at ByteBox”
WWDC:
Describe your company in 5 words.
ByteBox:
”Creative, eye-catching, modern and unique!”
WWDC:
What's your business philosophy?
ByteBox:
”Stand out from the crowd.
A website is so much more than a poster. We love all our websites, and make sure every single one is eye catching and tailored to your needs.”
WWDC:
Describe your office environment.
ByteBox:
”Relaxed and swimming with ideas, surrounded by coffee cups :-)”
WWDC:
Describe how your team interact and work together.
ByteBox:
”Normally it's a 'yo Dan' across the room, but for serious notes and brain storming we get the pen and paper out. It's always a good idea to draw things out before jumping into designing and coding.”
WWDC:
What makes you different from other web design companies?
ByteBox:
”There's so many companies out there that will quite happily take your money and give you a basic thoughtless website.
We like to work closely with our customers to give them exactly what they need, with the support of our creative and unique solution.”
WWDC:
How do you get the majority of your business?
ByteBox:
”We get a lot of recommendations from clients we've worked with. Our designs get noticed and people question who made them. It makes perfect sense to us... we work hard and produce high quality designs, and hopefully in return people recommend us :-)”
WWDC:
What do you think is the most crucial element of creating a good client relationship?
ByteBox:
”Letting the client know about new ideas and suggestions that they might not have thought about. We listen very carefully to the clients requirements, and work closely with them to bring out the best solution possible. It's important they know they are in control and can contact us at any time and about anything.”
WWDC:
How was your company name chosen?
ByteBox:
”We wanted something short and snappy, but fun too! Having a simple logo with a memorable name will hopefully make people sit up and take interest in us.
We're not your average 'Joe Bloggs Web Design' company. We like to think we're that little bit different.”
WWDC:
If you were to give your clients one tip on how to get the most from their website what would it be?
ByteBox:
”Don't be pressured into a bog standard solution. Look at competitor websites, and find out what's possible. Ask the designers for advise, and work closely with them to creative the perfect solution.”
