Reviews
We needed a professional, but unique looking website to help sell and promote our call answering services. We contacted Cornish Web Solutions after a long search on the internet. After the initial chat they were brilliant in understanding exactly what we needed and came up with some excellent suggestions that we had not thought about. They even took on the task of designing a brand for our company, which fits perfectly with the style and impression we wanted to give.
We had great communication with Thomas at Cornish Web Solutions. He was only an email or phone call away if we had any questions while he was working on our project. The end result was fantastic, and has already generated a few enquiries, even though our site is still very new. We would highly reccommend Cornish Web to any other business needing a professional and creative website. Thanks again!
Everything was first class I have already reccomended Cornish Web solutions to several other business's including my Canadian Lawyers who were most impressed with the site that Thomas designed. My site has really taken off and is very popular, it is my sole source of business generation, so the design had to be exact.

WWDC:
Describe how your team interact and work together.
Cornish Web Solutions:
”We have an unusual business structure as all of us are home based workers, so effective communication is essential. We like to make use of regular email updates, telephone conversations and our project management software to allow us to brainstorm and bounce ideas.”
WWDC:
What makes you different from other web design companies?

WWDC:

WWDC:
What do you think is the most crucial element of creating a good client relationship?
Cornish Web Solutions:

WWDC:
How do you manage demanding clients?
Cornish Web Solutions:
”If we find that they are asking too much of us, we will let them know because we don't want to compromise the quality of our service that we offer.”
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?
Cornish Web Solutions:
”Take a good look at their portfolio and past work. Look at the type of business and how they have approached the project and the design style used. If you’re particularly keen for a certain style of design, ask the company to supply more samples of the style they have done. Or, if you just want to choose a company to work with, get in touch with some of their clients to ask about the project and how they found dealing with the design company.”
WWDC:
Where do you see your company in 10 years time?
Cornish Web Solutions:
”Bigger, hopefully! One day we want to centralise into one office in Cornwall, and keep continually experimenting and developing design styles and approaches to websites. We also hope to have developed a firm stance as one of the leading design agencies in the South West.”
WWDC:
Where do you see the web design industry in the future?
Cornish Web Solutions:
”Growing more and more. The web is such a new innovation, but it's expanding every single day at an incredible rate. There is just more and more work available to businesses and people that want to get online. It will become more competitive, but probably more fruitful for web design companies.”
WWDC:
What computers do you have use in your offices, PCs or Macs?
Cornish Web Solutions:
”Both PC and Mac”
WWDC:
How was your company name chosen?
Cornish Web Solutions:
”Well, it is quite a corporate name for a creative company, but has proved us well in search engine rankings. It really is just an amalgamation of our location 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?
Cornish Web Solutions:
”To know that a website doesn't just get successful overnight. It needs constant updating, quality copywriting and professional photography. A website is as much a time investment as well as a financial one.”
