Web design and development
Every business must have a website; without one, it just doesn’t have any credibility. But the story doesn’t end there. Unless your business has some very specific, highly technical requirements, for the most part websites are relatively easy to build. The trouble is, it’s even easier to build a bad one.
Or, potentially more damaging to your business, you could find yourself held to ransom by a technology partner that has used their own, proprietary Content Management System (CMS); meaning you have to pay for each and every change, no matter how small and you cannot take the work elsewhere without facing the cost of a total rebuild.
Barneys is more than just a web agency, we have a true understanding of the value of online activity and its relative strengths and weaknesses – if you like, where digital fits in the mix.
When you work with us, we’ll create a compelling web presence for your enterprise. One that is on-brand and fits in with the rest of your marketing activity, built to web standards using open source content management systems with e-commerce if you need it.
What does that mean to you?
When a web site is described as complying with Web Standards, it means that the site has valid HTML, CSS and JavaScript. The HTML also meets accessibility and semantic guidelines. Incorporating Web Standards into your projects can lower your development costs, lower your maintenance costs, expand your audience, lower your hosting costs and increase your organization's profile. It also means that the content is separate from the presentation, making a change to the look and feel of your website significantly easier and less costly.
By using an open source CMS, you are not paying for the software used to deploy the site, only the customisation for your particular use – the CMS is free. An open source CMS is quick to install and quick to customise, reducing your development costs. And, because it is open source, the CMS is flexible and scalable with a large, global workforce well versed in its development. You are no-longer beholden to a single supplier.
Together, a website built to Web Standards using an open source CMS will make your site as future-proof and search engine friendly as possible.
