Darren and Red Star have been fantastic to work with from the start of the project to dealing with ongoing amendments/updates etc. From the start the company took the time to understand our unique requirements and very quickly got to grips with the complexities of our organisation.
An action plan for the process was set up by Darren which ensured that the website was delivered on time and this was a really useful document, as much for us to ensure that we provided the information as needed to ensure an effective handover.
At all stages it was a comfort that we communicated in English! No jargon and technical terms to ensure that we could take ownership of the end product and understand how it worked from a non-technical perspective
We feel that our website is fantastic both to look at and to access information. In addition the maintenance and updating system is simple and when we have run into issues, Red Star have always delivered on their after sales service.

RedStar Creative has been instrumental in the growth of Totalpost's website. RedStar provides a different approach to SEO where everything is open and honest and the client is completely in control. The SEO is tailored around the client allowing them to get involved as much or as little as wanted. In my case I have tried to take an active role in the SEO and have been guided through this by RedStar. They provide monthly reports and a task list which I can either carry out myself or pay extra for them to do it for me. If I choose to do the SEO myself RedStar are always on hand to talk me through it and help where they can. It's a great approach which allows me to get the best out of the service and ensure that my business is described in the right way when undertaking the SEO. As someone who was previously suspicious of SEO this service offers the perfect balance. In terms of results, to date our keywords are gradually rating higher, with ranking increases every month. Site visits and the time visitors spend on the site has gone up dramatically.

Following the success with the SEO I have now also used RedStar to create further websites and the service provided has always been helpful and efficient. They always come up with great ideas and inspired solutions.

We found Darren and his team very friendly, and customer focused on every step of the way through the process. The end result was exactly what we wanted. We were in contact every step of the way, and the service was and still is second to none. We had a few companies apply for the job in hand, but as we were not pestered and pressured we felt we made the best decision and to work with Red Star.
Even when the project was finished we receive regular calls from Karen to see if all is ok. in one word we would describe them as "Outstanding"
Thanks again guys.

Darren and the team took over my so called fantastic state of the art website built by a local web designer and totally revamped the site into a fully workable online shop.
I had a lot of issues with my website until Redstar reworked it for a very competative price and now i have no doubts that they will continue to address any small issues that may arise for the near future .
All work was carried out with minimum fuss and at great speed.

From development to site maintenance, 1st class service throughout. Friendly helpful advise and affordable costing on all projects. I have recommended to a friends and I would do again.

The site is growing all the time and Redstar are always happy to help advise were we can improve.
Darren and his team always seem to be on hand and the communication has always been really good to the point of being contact back after office hours.

If I was to look at putting together another project and it involved having a website built, Redstar would be my first point of call.

RedStar were an asset on this project - they communicated well with our mutual client, taking them through the process of setting up a new website, and understanding their requirements.

Dicom were impressed with the Content Management Tool that they were provided with, and we were happy with the speed, accuracy and cost of the project - we'd happily recommend RedStar to anybody - other than one of our competitors!!

I have to say that the service we recieved from redstar Creative was second to none, Darren was great, he kept in touch with us pretty much all the way down the line, in fact he became one of the lads. We exchanged ideas with eachother, and got exactly what we wanted, if not more. Darren kept in touch with us every step of the way, and we was more than well informed of what stages they where at. Darren and the team spoke to us very clearly, with no technical jargon, when it comes to technical, im not the smartest guy, but not once did i have any issues. We in what seemed no time had our site up and running, and got far more than what we expected, we had in our mind what we wanted, but redstar did us proud, any ideas that we had Darren tweaked, and as i say the outcome was great. Any problems we had where minimal, and where dealt with, with no issues in any way, great job, well done to redstar, and darren.

RedStar Creative designed my website within all time and specification parameters. I was kept fully informed of its progress and given opportunities to give feedback throughout. I love the design which has a particular client group in mind and have had nothing but positive feedback from colleagues. I was asked by someone the other day if I knew about the traffic to my website. My response was that I didn't but that I have complete trust and confidence in RedStar Creative to be monitoring that information and to be giving me the best and most appropriate advice to optimise the site. RedStar Creative is a business that works closely with me and my marketing consultant so that we feel like a team.

I found RedStar to be very receptive to our needs in designing and building a new website for our training business. The new site has a crisp, clear design which has excellent functionality and, already, improved visibility to search engines.

We were kept informed at every stage and found them to be willing and able to make quick amendments whenever they were requested. It was refreshing to be able to have conversations which I, as a non technical person, could understand.

Our needs have certainly been met and the final outcome actually exceeded our expectations. I would have no hesitation in recommending RedStar to any individual or business considering a new website or improved search engine optimisation of their current website.
