Content managed websites revolutionise the way digital content is handled by providing a user-friendly interface where non-technical users can easily develop, edit, and publish content. This democratizes web design and content management, making it accessible to individuals and businesses of all sizes.

Bespoke Development
Developing bespoke websites involves creating custom web solutions tailored specifically to the needs and preferences of a client. Unlike off-the-shelf products, bespoke websites are designed from the ground up to address the unique challenges and objectives of a business.
Creating a bespoke website is a collaborative and iterative process that requires a deep understanding of the client's business and a commitment to delivering a high-quality, personalised web presence.
Clients often approach us with specific requirements, it's an opportunity to provide a service that not only meets their immediate needs but also enhances the overall functionality and user experience of their website.
Start selling online
When it comes to selling products online there's a lot of platforms to pick from, each offering their own USP as to why you should use them. There are monthly paid services such as bigcommerce & shopify and then there are free open-source services such as WooCommerce, Hikashop and Magento each providing a great platform to start selling from.
With the paid services you do not have to worry about hosting the site yourself but may be limited in the amount of control you have over your website, especially in terms of design and customisation. Whereas with the free open-source platforms you have full control but have to arrange your own hosting and know quite a lot of technical knowledge to get them working the way you want to.

We recently decided to update our business with a new logo and website. We could not have asked for a better team to enable us to do so. Gavin and the Identity team patiently listened to what we wanted to achieve and offered plenty of advice, knowledge and design concepts. Nothing was too much trouble, with communication flowing freely throughout the planning, execution and transitioning process. Our website and new logo are now live and we have had such a positive response from both our old and new customers. Thank you, Gavin and team, for all your support throughout and ongoing, in making the completion of this project both smooth and successful.- Yvonne Jewell, Director
