Why SWSweb for your website design project?

Examples of our website designs
WordPress website design and development process
At SWSweb, we have worked with a wide range of WordPress and other CMS platforms since 2012. We have created complete websites from scratch and redesigned current websites to improve navigation, user experience, and overall site cleanliness and design.
1. Understand website design or development requirements
At SWSweb we start by working with you to understand your goals.
Are you looking for an improvement in search engine ranking? To make your WordPress site easier to navigate? Or does your old site just need a refresh?
2. WordPress website or page design
Once we understand this, our designer will work on initial design mockups for you to approve.
At this point, any colours, fonts, logos, and images you'd like to include can help the design come together. We can revise these initial designs as often as we need to get them to look just right.
3. WordPress website development
Upon approval, we'll start building the design into a working website on our development server, integrating a Content Management System (CMS), such as WordPress, ensuring all site elements can be easily edited by you (or us!) in future.
The development site will be shared with you to see how it's coming together and allow you to work on content before going live.
4. WordPress site final testing
Your new WordPress site is tested on various devices and web browsers to ensure everything functions as expected.
We'll then make it live on your hosting or our managed website hosting service, subject to your future website maintenance requirements.
Mobile friendly (responsive) WordPress website design
Did you know Google searches are now performed on mobile devices more than desktop computers?
Therefore, your website must work on mobile phones and tablets; Google even ranks mobile-friendly websites higher than those that don't. We have been building responsive WordPress websites for years and use the latest techniques to ensure your site will look great and work perfectly, whether viewed on a desktop computer or mobile phone.
Why use Content Management Systems (CMS)?
A content management system allows users with suitable access to make additions and edits to your website content whenever required. We feel this is so important for you to remain in control of your website and not rely on us to make simple changes, although we're always happy to do so!
There are many great systems out there, and we'll always recommend including a CMS in your website build; whether it be WordPress or Joomla, we'll provide training for you and your team on how to use it, although, with most systems, they are easy to get started.
What builders do we use in WordPress?
On our WordPress website builds we utilise the amazing Beaver Builder platform.
Starting with it's lightweight framework and then using the power of the page builder, it makes editing your website a breeze.
We cover the licensing costs and training for you so you can be safe in the knowledge you always have easy access to make quick changes or add new content.
