OK, your design is nearly set and you have a fair idea of what you want your site to do. Next stop is the development team.

These guys live in their own virtual world full of source code and computer languages but are experts at making your site work.

Working on the template produced by you, in conjunction with the design team, our dev boys write all the back end code that turns your page from a pretty looking concept to an all singing, all dancing website.

There is a huge variety of development possibilities from simple contact us forms, to fully functioning e-commerce and content managment solutions.

What features can my site have?

Blogs

Offer your clients, visitors and employees the opportunity to maintain their own blog on your site. For visitors this can help promote a strong community feel to your site and business. If your employees are contributing to a blog this can give a personal face to your company. Blogs are particularly useful on sports sites as they can give the fans/coaches/players/clubs differing perspectives on the same topic.

Chat

Give your fans direct access to their favourite players during live chat sessions.

Content Management System

Allow non technical users to contribute to your site without any specialist knowledge. Perfect for the fast paced world of sport our CMS allows numerous contributors to upload news from any where in the world, as it happens.

Diaries & Events

Keep people up to date with a publicly viewable schedule. Ideal for venue details and match or competition events.

e-Commerce

Sell your goods and services online with our powerful shopping cart facility. Built on a content management framework this allows your staff to easily manage all administrative aspects of running the shop. From adding products, categories and images to processing multiple credit cards and arranging delivery. Our cart can even handle ticket sales.

Forum

Forums allow people to interact within a community a comment on topics in an easy to follow thread structure. Where sport is concerned forums have been quickly adopted as the place for fans to meet and discuss all aspects of their teams and players performances. By running your own forum you provide a valuable service and communication for your users and also increase the value, in financial and perceived terms, of your site.

Gallery

Post images of events for your users to view and possibly download. Allow your users to post images of themselves enjoying a game or event and further develop the community relationship of your clients.

Multimedia

Enhance the users experience by not only providing text and images. Compliment your existing content with video, animations and pod casts to increase your site traffic and customer loyalty

Newsletter

Keep in touch with your fan base with a quality newsletter. A great opportunity to market new products or services, report on recent events and preview forthcoming attractions. Newsletters are also a great way of tempting people on to your full site for further marketing exposure.

These are just some of the possibilities for your site. If you have any other ideas in mind, or have seen a site that you would like to emulate, please get in touch and we would be glad to hear your ideas in full.
