Website Design for Focus on Forestry First

Pixelwave Web Design is pleased to announce the release of a brand new website for Focus on Forestry First.

Focus on Forestry First is a Welsh Assembly Government/EU funded three year project solely for the trees and timber sector within Wales. They approached me in February asking about building them a website.

We had an initial meeting late in February to discuss the possibilities and I then visited their premises in Mid March to discuss their requirements. The original brochure style website they had first asked for had become a website based on a Content Management System and they were also talking about another bespoke database driven website that would become a hub for the business and its partners.

The initial phase of the website development was to be a website based on a Content Management System that would outline the activities of Focus on Forestry First and allow them to add news and events to the site -  as well as edit any other content – as and when they wished.

I had designed, constructed and placed a holding page at their domain within a couple of days and then started work on the site itself. Contact was good and things moved quite quickly and after a few tweaks to the initial design all was approved and the copy acquired. Once the copy had been added there were a few additional small tweaks to be made to the layout but soon all was ready for public consumption and the site went live at http://www.focusonforestryfirst.co.uk on April 20th.

I’m pleased with the final product, my clients are pleased with it and best of all, their visitors are pleased with it too:

People have been using the website and we have received positive reports back so that is all good!

Pixelwave Web Design has just started work on a new website for a professional building contractor. The new project came to me via word of mouth from another client who’s website I have yet to start on! I’m planning on starting his new site later in the year once he is ready to start promoting his B&B business, but in the meantime the builders who are working on his luxury conversion also want a website.

Their website will be a fairly simple brochure style website designed to reflect their contemporary, professional approach whilst working sympathetically with traditional buildings. It will have a clean, easy to use interface and will highlight the experience and attention to detail that the building contractors bring to their work.
