Website Development for Expat Community

Tuesday, February 19th, 2008

One of my regular clients has come back to me recently with a new web development project to carry out for them.

Obviously the new project is exciting, but for me the fact that it is repeat business makes it even better. First of all it means that the client has been more than pleased with the work I have done for them in the past. I’ve already built a couple of websites for them so the fact that they keep coming back for more is great.

Secondly it means we already have a good working relationship and know what to expect from each other so the time invested developing such a relationship in the past means we are able to get straight down to work on the website project. This obviously saves time and money.

The website (or websites as it may turn out to be) are aimed at an expat community on the island of Sakhalin. The full brief has yet to be finalised but it should be starting with a classifieds feature and a personal/dating section. These will be built using commercially available scripts to keep the price and development time down. I shall keep you up to date here as the project develops.

As always there is a large selection of templates available, all at great prices. Now you have the perfect staring point for a modern, CSS driven website.

Slick Activewear eCommerce Website

Friday, February 8th, 2008

I recently had a final meeting with the owners of Slick Activewear and released their new eCommerce website whilst they were here. They are looking forward to receiving orders, and have been so pleased with my work so far that they have already been passing my name on to others and are soon to be hiring me for a new project of theirs.

Slick Activewear produce T-shirts, clothing and accessories aimed mainly at the adventure sports market. With garments for mountain bikers, surfers, snowboarders, kayakers and many other outdoor sports their should be something in their range for everyone. Their new online shop allows you to browse through and purchase their original designs.

The website also gives complete control of the catalogue and product details to the shop owners, allowing them to keep the catalogue up to date with their latest products via an easy to use online control panel.

Pixelwave Web Design wish them all the best with their new shop and look forward to working on their next project.

Borth Hotel website goes live

Monday, January 21st, 2008

I’m still working on a Welsh translation and a Welsh version of the site, but the English version of the Glanmor Hotel website has now gone live.

As usual it has been good working on a site for such a local business as I have been able to pop down the road and speak to the owner of the hotel whenever I wanted. Pixelwave Web Design designed and built the website, did the photography and advised on the copy-writing and organised the domain name, hosting and is currently organising the translation. Being able to easily meet with the client made the project go smoothly and quickly and as soon as I have the Welsh version from the translator I will start work on the Welsh version of the site.

If you are looking for cheap hotel accommodation in West Wales, then take a look at the Glanmor Hotel.

Website Design for Hotel in Wales

Friday, January 4th, 2008

Happy New Year to everyone, I hope the festive season was kind to you. I had a few days off but now that 2008 is here Pixelwave Web Design is back in full swing and I’m working away on various projects as usual. I’ve just started work on a new project for a hotel not far from here.

Glanmor Hotel is a small, friendly family hotel situated at the northern end of Borth seafront overlooking the beautiful Cardigan Bay. The owners of the hotel have recently commissioned Pixelwave Web Design to build them a bilingual (English / Welsh) website to advertise the hotel. As the hotel owners have no internet experience Pixelwave Web Design will be managing the whole project, including the design and construction of the site, domain name and hosting arrangements, copy-writing, photography and also organising the Welsh translation.

The website itself is a fairly straight forward brochure style site and should be ready to go live early this year.

The cards are available to individuals and wholesale and feature Welsh landscapes, Flowers, Dolphins, Birds, Farm animals, butterflies, boats, planes and much more.

Watch Obsession Weblog Goes Live

Wednesday, December 19th, 2007

Just a quick update from Pixelwave Web Design to let you know that the Watch Obsession Weblog project that I’ve been working on has now gone live and the Webmaster is putting it to good use and updating it regularly.

As anyone who has read any of the web design and Search Engine Optimisation articles on this site will know, ‘Content is King’ when it comes to getting good search engine rankings. A weblog or any other type of Content Management System that allows a webmaster to easily and regularly update and add such content to a website can therefore pay dividends.

Such a system is of course only as good as the content that is added using the system and all too often people don’t use them to their full potential. It is therefore great to see that Watch Obsession are off to an excellent start and have been adding good quality, relevant content on a regular basis. If you want to know what is happening in the world of watches, then check out the Watch Obsession Weblog now.

Pantyfod Garden NurseryPixelwave web Design has recently started work on an eCommerce website for a plant nursery in Wales.

Pantyfod Garden Nursery is open to visitors and has a wide range of habitats as well as views across the surrounding countryside. All plants offered for sale by Pantyfod Gardens are grown in their own gardens and many are rare or unnusual.

Their new website will include information about the gardens and some of the techniques involved in cultivating their plants and will also feature an eCommerce section containing a comprehensive plant catalogue allowing the purchase of the plants by mail order.

I shall be working on the site over the coming weeks with a planned release date early in the new year.
