As freelance web designers we specialise in designing web sites for french businesses and property.

Situated in the South West of France we are ideally located to offer web services for all french properties and businesses.We specialise in creating web sites that not only look attractive but are fast loading, functional and cost effective.

Costs:    What's involved

One of the first considerations are the costs involved in having your own web site. Every one has an advertising budget that they need to feel they are getting the best value out of. When you consider the prices of more traditional advertising and realise that the cost of a web site is on a par with the price of advertising in a glossy magazine or brochure you then realise what good value a web site is.

A web site is available 24 hours a day 365 days a year to your potential customers. Allowing them to look at their own leisure. Where as the magazine or brochure that you advertise in is only available for that particular month, or year, and then you have got to hope that it targets your potential customers in the right place at the right time.

We are able to design you a site around your budget needs. Contact us for further information


Web site: What can we do for you ?

Our web services include registering your domain name, ie www.yourdomain.com, creating and designing your web site, optimizing your site for the search engines and registering your site with the major search engines. Organising email addresses for your domain and managing your site for you if needed. If you have any questions regarding the creation of a web site we will explain to you in plain english just what is involved.

As well as specialising in web sites for French property owners we are more than happy to design web sites for other businesses. Being based in the Dordogne, France we can offer our customers a fully bi-lingual web site in French and English thereby ensuring you a larger target audience.

Design:

As freelance web designers we design web sites that are functional and purposeful by getting across to your visitors all the facts in the most attractive way possible. We create sites that load fast and are designed so they are easy to navigate around. Any graphics are optimised for fast loading so no visitor has to wait an age for pages to load.

You can specify how you would like your site to look, what colours and graphics, or alternatively you can let us design you a site from scratch. We will then get to work to produce a prototype for you to view before finalising the design following your input and suggestions.

Domain names and hosting:

Our web services include registering your domain name, we will carry out a search for the domain name of your choice or find one similar if it is already taken. Your domain name will be registered and we will organise a host for your web space.

Email addresses:

We will set up email accounts for you, to enable you to have several email addresses on your domain. For example yourname@yourdomain.com This will obviously give a more professional touch to all emails that you send as the addresses will contain your domain name.

Search engine optimization and submission:

To enable your site to be found on the search engines your web sites pages are submitted to the major search engines including Google, Alltheweb, Lycos, Altavista, Hotbot and Yahoo. Some people claim to submit your site to hundreds of search engines, yet there are only about a dozen major search engines, these other search engines are infact Free For All sites and are not true search engines, they require you to register your email address to get listed and will then pass on your email address and you will soon be bombarded with junk emails.

The optimisation of your web page is something that is needed to enable your web page to rank highly in the major search engines. This consists of ensuring your page contains the relevant keywords and key phrases that are relevant to the searches people would put in to find your site. Each major search engine has different criteria for their searches, we can make sure that you are targeting your audience correctly.

Search Engine optimisation is ever changing, therefore after initially optimizing your web site you will more than likely find that your web site will need to be reviewed if you so wish to keep it up in the search engine rankings. This is something we are happy to do for you, either with an existing site or one that we have designed for you.
