On the site for the Soho Literary Festival, which Samson Web Design has completed on a very tight schedule (and on a modest budget) Lee Samson has shown a complete understanding of our requirements from the start and has translated them into an attractive web site. He also immediately answers queries, resolves problems quickly and explains complex programming situations in jargon-free language. Needless to say, I recommend this company without reservation.

After approaching several companies we felt we got the best advice and price from Samson Web Design. They came up with a cost effective way to get the site launched for the lowest possible price so we could test the market and make sure the concept would work.
We've made amendments since launch and have had a great experience all round with them. Would happily recommend their services to anyone looking for a company to offer advice as well as design ideas.

Lee at Samson Web Design has the knack of being able to explain complex computer jargon in plain English for those of us who are not technologically minded!! The company were easy to deal with and always contactable. They provided a fast, efficient service and were extremely patient when we requested changes to be made. We were kept well informed throughout the design process and we are very happy with the final outcome. We have an ongoing relationship on the SEO side.

I knew in very general terms what I wanted but not how to achieve it! Lee Samson guided me through the design and build process and was very happy to make sequential adjustments as the website developed. It was a pleasure to work with such a professional concern. I have had lots of excellent feedback from people whom have seen the site.

We met with 4 web design companies & quickly narrowed the options down to Samson Wed Designs ( SWD ). Having little or no experience in creating an e commerce website we found SWD a great asse to work with. They often extended their brief & provided information& salient advise on a whole range of business issues related to the creation of our web site. The web site was processed in the agreed time plan & SWD have continued to provide advise & solutions after the web site was operational. I would have no hesitation in recommending SWD to any company seeking a superior & professional service. We as a Company now feel very comfortable with a web environment & that training & knowledge is directly related to SWD.

I appraoched Samson Web Design because they had built a couple of sites for businesses within the same industry sector (wedding supplies).
Lee was very approachable and I was able to communicate my ideas and vision of the site which he then translated into design options.
I already had an existing website and Samson Web handled the move from that to the new site, importing all my products and inventory.
I had comprehensive training in the new software, and felt able to phone up to ask questions any time I was stuck!

The whole process was smooth, jargon and hassle-free and I would recommend the services to anyone looking to have a website built.

If you are looking to start your own site, and are currently starting your own business, then I am sure you are working long, long hours. So I'll keep this short. I can thoroughly recommend Samson Web Design as they were the only company I spoke to which took the trouble to explain the whole procedure to me at length. Furthermore, their design capability was good - judging by their previous work - and the look of the site was very important to us. After accepting them as our designers, they also proved exceptionally good at understanding and interpreting our brief, and they are now working on optimising our site which I am sure will also bear fruit. Do not hesitate!

My idea for a website was to get secondhand childrens clothes and offer a site where people could but them cheaply. Mainly aimed at major brands. Lee designed my logo and the entire site for me which I'm very happy with.
I have also had a number of additions made to the site and would recommend Lees services to anyone.
Lee was very quick and an excellent price.

Excellent communication turned our site into a professional looking site while maintaining our company image. Easy to deal with and ready to quick to make all the little changes one needs. Would highly recommend the site looks great and the pictures look 100 times better especially with the magnifying feature. Also make all the technical web need to know easy and understandable.

Samson Web Design were chosen from a number of web developers for our new site. What set them apart was (1) product (2) service and (3) price. Because they use an open source product it gave us confidence that should anything go wrong down the line, we would be able to take our site and keep in operational. Lee has given and continues to give great service and quickly responds to any issues or questions we may have. Finally the price for the build was very competitive.

Overall we are extremly happy with the design and functionality of our new website. We are already receiving sales and enquiries and I am confident that this will continue to grow. Samson Web Design are superb for small and medium sized enterprises and I have no hesitation in recommending them.

I have worked with Lee and Samson Web Design on two projects now and both have been very enjoyable experiences. This site was a much larger project than our initial one and we had a clear idea what we wanted which is exactly what we got.
Lee fully understood our requirements and we found it very helpfull being asked to research our competition fo rthe best bits of each site which had not occurred to us. We now have what we think is a market leading website in our field and we're looking forward to expanding it as we grow with the help of Samson Web Design.

Lee Samson from Samson Web Design recreated our site at the beginning of the year.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend his services (and have already done so).
From the initial 'finding the right look ' process to the final finishing touches of the site Lee was both friendly and professional.He understood completely our needs and really went the extra mile to provide us with exactly the look and usability of the site that we were after.
Communication with Lee throughout the process was fantastic - Lee is very ungeeky for a computer buff and always cheerful!
I was thrilled with the finished website!

Lee Samson of Samson Web Design is a great person to work with. He listens to how you want to 'show case' your business, what your requests are and if you are lacking creative ideas, Lee has plenty!

Samson Web Design works with you, in getting your project off the ground and is there for every step. It works more like a partnership.

The website was up and running in no time at all. Any complications that have occurred are sorted out quickly and professionally.

The pricing is also spot on. Lee is very approachable, friendly and great to work with and is always there for any advice. I'm really pleased I picked Samson Web Design.

I found Lee and Samson Web Design through Google and contacted a lot of other companies to get quotes. He came out at the best price and did a fantastic job on the site for me.
I've had two sites done by Lee now and both I have been very satisfied with. I had a lot of products to get into my store and he helped me with the data as well as advising on content I needed for terms and privacy which were all new to me running my first online shop.

Samson web design provided a first class service, on time and on budget (with a few extras that were agreed during the building of the site). They were very helpful and understood the project and what we wanted to achieve with good communication and useful creative input. They understand retail websites and how to get the best from them using X-Cart which we are very pleased with. One of those rare invoices that you don't mind paying at the end of the project.

Samson Web Design understood the project and our requirements from the start. The quotation was thorough and detailed everything the site would do for us.
Lee told us what was happening and when it would happen, he also bought the site in ahead of our ideal timescale.
The site has increased our turnover tremendously and also boosted us up the search engines to page 1 which has cut our advertising costs down to almost nothing.
Highly recommended.
