Web Design
We design highly functional, attractive websites that perform well on search engines. All our websites are tailor-made, based on your specific needs. Our expert web developers and graphic designers can ensure your new business website is a success for many years to come.
We understand accessibility and work to the highest SEO standards as well as having years of experience in eliciting leads and subsequently sales, meaning you get so much more than just a website – you get a website that takes your business to the next level and pays for itself. The websites we design aren’t about looking good, although they do happen to be beautiful. Our websites are an investment into the future of your business.
Stunning Visual Design
We have vast amounts experience designing visually stunning websites. We understand how to design for the web, and we go beyond static layouts to interactive, standards-compliant fluid layouts. We don’t use Flash as we believe it’s an accessibility and SEO nightmare, however we are so experienced with jQuery that we can create websites with identical levels of interactivity and engagement using just HTML and Javascript. This leads to a faster, better user experience and allows our websites to run on a wide variety of mobile devices as well as desktop browsers.
We include a creative consultation and multiple design revisions with all of our web projects, meaning that you are in control of the look and feel of your website. We excel at making our customers happy, which is why they keep coming back, and we’re confident that we will make you happy too.
Attention to Detail and Client Needs
We care about our customers and we consider our clients as partners with a shared interest. We help our customers above and beyond what we are asked to do for them and it shows – our clients send us a lot of referrals and keep coming back to work with us. This is a direct result of our friendly, approachable way of doing business.
Take a look at what some of our clients have said about the experience of working with us:
We are a high end post production company based in South Africa, so we needed a site that could impress technically but also required a high level of aesthetics. Snapshot claimed they wouldn’t stop until we were happy and that was certainly the case. Our standards and revisions are likely harder to deal with than most but they embraced that and I would like to congratulate the team in delivering exactly what they set out to do without a murmur of complaint. We would highly recommend this company to anyone with taste!

The guys at Snapshot Media have helped us by getting our message across to those who need the help that we are offering, and to get the help we need to reach our goals. We asked for a basic site that can grow and evolve over the next few years and that’s exactly what we’ve got. We feel that any business, group or individual wanting to build a site should get in touch and check what these guys can do for you.

Innovation
We think outside the box and we work outside the box. We’ll take your brief and advise on changes, and we’ll always tell you what’s best for you, even if it means sending you elsewhere. We pride ourselves on the benefits that our clients receive from working with us, rather than just creating websites to answer a brief.
If we were to sum up our approach to web design in a few words they would be “open minded” and “forward thinking”. We research what’s up and coming and let our clients directly take advantage of this knowledge and implement it in a way that will benefit them.
Powered by Expose CMS
As of May 2010, all new websites written by us are powered by our revolutionary content management system, Expose CMS. Using Expose CMS lets us meet your demands and requirements in a much more elegant way and lets you manage your content in a user-friendly, fast and efficient manner.
This dynamic and easily extendable CMS has already attracted a lot of interest across the industry and is considered a one-of-a-kind product which differs greatly from other content management systems when it comes to ease of use.
Built on Scalable Servers
While Expose CMS powers the sites we deliver and build, we still need a solid foundation to run our client’s websites on. We’ve chosen to partner with VPS.net to offer our customers reliable, fast, UK-based and above all scalable hosting.
What this means is that our customer’s sites don’t go down, even when under extreme load. With other web hosts, your fifteen minutes of fame could easily go unnoticed because your server crashes. Our clients don’t have this problem – with a fully scalable system architecture backing their websites our customers can be assured their websites go up and stay up, no matter how much traffic they receive.
Real-time Monitoring & Alerts
By partnering with Server Density, we’re able to provide real-time monitoring of all of our services. Every technology company is bending the truth if it says that things never go wrong – the difference with us is that we know about it before you or your clients do, and are able to rectify the situation in a rapid manner, usually with zero downtime.
Advanced statistical analysis lets us identify problems before they occur and finely tuned triggers enable us to scale our capacity as and when it’s needed, without any human intervention.
