I spent two months looking for someone to technically SEO a new web site written in asp.net code. After false starts with several dunderheads who were far more interested in talking about their fees than talking about what I actually wanted, I found Mike Irving and it was a total relief. He is conscise, a good listener, writes in plain English and above all transparently honest, which is not as common as it should be in the world of SEO companies. Mike responded to all communication immediately and kept me informed of exactly what was happening. He also went over and above his breif giving me good advice on linking, which I have successfully undertaken. I have been delighted with the work Mike has done for me and I highly recommend him. I hope I will work with Mike again as he instills confidence and knows exactly what he is talking about.
Mike Irving was introduced to us by our IT software developers, after a fairly quick briefing Mike came up with some good ideas to transform our website from a fairly underdeveloped product to a stylish and well thought out window on our company.
Now we have a facility to easily update the site with news and additional information and, anytime we need a bit of extra work doing Mike has this sorted out promptly and at minimal cost.
We've had great feedback both from regular & new customers alike and have certainly noticed an increase of enquiries for new business coming from the site.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Mike Irving to anyone looking to develop an effective website.
Mike Irving re designed our site to make it more search engine / user friendly as the old site couldn't be read properly by search engines and was difficult to navigate. He also designed a new customer interface, (i think thats the buzz word ), which makes it easy to update content and do general admin tasks, he also added new features / pages and graphics. The bottom line to all this ( if you'll excuse the pun ) is that the site is now much fresher ( there I go again ), easier to navigate, has a much higher Google rank for Fart related searches and generates more enquiries and sales than the old site ever did.
Dealing with Mike by email and phone was easy, no job / request was beyond his capability / knowledge and things were done in the time he said they would take with the cost being very reasonable.

I got intouch with Mike Irving web design to build a website to promote and tell people in the music business about my session bass playing and serivces as a vital part of my music business.
Mike was very helpfull in what was best on the website and it was great to have his imput as well as what I wanted in a website.
Mike kept me updated as the website was built asking what features I wanted and his suggestions that I found of great help. He built in a website what I was looking for!
I am very happy with the end product and Mike has been a great help in changing parts of the website on request quickley and solving any problems that came along! With the website up and running Mike has been great as he has now increased google ranking as session bass player.
From Mike Irving web design's experience and great work, I have had a lot of music work as a result of having the website.
