We are here to give you the best customer service and deliver the best solution. Website owners can install pre-designed themes. What’s the problem with this solution? The theme can become difficult to customise and has limited functionalities.

The solution for this common problem is to customise your theme from scratch, incorporating all required functions and then integrating it to the chosen CMS platform (eg. WordPress). Custom web design gives you the freedom to choose your own look and feel of your website. It enables you to leverage your own ideas making it into reality.

The web design and development industry is a competitive one, with most operators being a ‘one man band’. Considering the many technologies involved in customising a website it is difficult (if not impossible) for one person to cover all the required skills. That is the main issue with ‘one man band’ web developers. That is also where Light Media differentiates itself. We have a neat team with a comprehensive skills set covering data base architects, graphic designs, back end developers and system administrator. Hence, we specialise in all areas required to built a professional level website.

• use best Web design practices.
• apply WACG 2.0 when required.
• plan the database relationship and structure to receive the appropriate load.
• plan long term, so your website can be robust, stable and allow your business to grow around it.
• understand your requirements in depth and consult on the best platform to achieve your goals

That is easy said then done. It boils down to the fact that as a business owner you still need to have the knowledge and skill to identify a quality web design or service provider.

To help you with this decision, check out some of the quality characteristics that you can look for a better website design company.

• • Check the companies’ portfolio. Check that the work done looks good. Check that the clients are well-known brands in their own segment. Check the user experience, if it pleases you it is most likely pleasing the client too. And don’t forget to ask about the platform used.

• • Strong Online Presence. A company with a strong online presence is one of the best indicators that you’re not dealing with a fly by night business. Presence can be through active and well-managed social media accounts, complete profiles on directory and business listings, and active participant in community websites such as forums, and questions and answers sites. Don’t forget to check the Google reviews too.

• • Good communication skills. There should be no language barrier in communication. The company’s response time should be mostly immediate. Reaching-out to clients regularly can be a plus. Staff and employees can express their ideas in a clear and polite way. And, choose someone friendly !

• • Follows Web standards and Principles. The service provider should follow web standards and best practices in web design. These standards aim to develop a usable and user friendly web solution which enables your website to become widely accepted by most online browsers and mobile devices.

• • Observes Semantic Web Standards. Web design is not just about user experience and usability. A website should also be understood by search engines. Implementation of Semantic Web markup will let search engines display your website data appropriately on search results.
