Everything is included
Nothing costs extra
We offer the most comprehensive website design service available. No other website design agency gets close to what we provide, for the fees we charge.
PEOPLE, PROCESS AND TECHNOLOGY
Every website we build is different and each has its challenges. We use the best people, our own collaborative tools and a rock-solid process to predict issues and make a difficult process rewarding and fun.
People
The core of our service is based around amazing people. You will be allocated your own professional designer and content writer. They are your team and we won't change them. You'll quickly become friends, and build mutual trust as you work together, bringing your ideas to life.
Process
We have a process that we have refined over the last 21 years and thousands of websites. We call it the DotGO way. It's a 5 step process that predicts issues, and helps us remain focused on what matters.
Technology
Underpinning our process is our own cloud based design portal. This portal is a collaborative environment. You update it with ideas. We update it with ideas. Here we agree mutual expectations, share design ideas, images, documents and make sure we discus and agree everything we need.
Your very own writer. Making sure the important messages come across and you are indexed on Google
RESEARCH AND STRUCTURE
Once we've nailed the purpose of your website, we can start researching and thinking about its size and structure
SEO and Google
We research your local and web competition, finding search engine phrases that you stand a chance of winning and those more competitive ones that will take more time and work.
Webpage structure and architecture
Your site structure, navigation and page hierarchy feeds user-journeys and leads customers and search engines to pages, blog posts and, clone-able deep pages. Get it right and your site will achieve its goals. Get it wrong and it will always be unproductive.
Usability and responsiveness
Your website needs to adapt and look great on any device. We plan and design how your content morphs and appears on any device, from mobile phones to tablets to huge desktop screens.
Beautiful and simple to make interactive image galleries. Made in seconds but leave a lasting impression.
IMAGES AND VIDEOS
Above all else, the visual design elements that matter the most are images and video
Choosing
We give you access to the largest and best quality image and video library available. Millions of images. It's rare we can't find the perfect picture. But let's not forget your own images. Pictures taken by you add a level of credibility that is priceless.
Displaying
Present images in a way that is both professional and beautiful is not easy. We have lots of tools at our disposal.
Splash images or videos make a full page statement as you enter a your site, galleries offer a clever, interactive experience and sliders welcome visitors to each of your web pages with animation and text.
Optimising
As great as images and videos are, they are ‘heavy' and if done badly they can slow down your website and you'll be penalised by Google. A new generation of images are now available. Never heard of .webp image files? Well Google has, and it loves websites that use these images. We use only .webp files. They are beautiful, sharp and very very fast.
Welcome to tomorrow.
INTERACTIVE PLUGINS
We provide a HUGE range of plugins
Whatever the goal of your website, achieving it will probably rely on you interacting with your visitors. Whether they are filling out forms, commenting on a blog post, booking a room or web-chatting with you, interactive plugins are important tools.

THE DESIGN
We plan first and design later.
Other design agencies use templates or dive right in, making it up as they go along : we don't. Our own design tools gives us an advantage, designing quickly and beautifully.

TECHNICAL
The technical stuff that other companies either forget or don't know how to do.
Moving your domain and telling google
If you already have a domain name we'll login to your registrar and make all the technical changes to move it over to us. If you already have a website that's indexed with Google, we'll setup Google mappings for each each page so that Google retains your site authority and you continue to rank for your search phrases.
Professional Email
We'll setup your professional DotGO email mailboxes (or make the technical tweaks to use Microsoft 365 or Google professional mail ) then we'll show you how to configure your phone or laptop to send and receive automatically.
Encryption, security and legal

GDPR or data privacy is something that is often forgotten about. We give you a privacy policy template that you can emend to your own business processes and an ‘opt-in' box on each of your forms.
We connect you to Google and show you all the ways you can interact with Google as a website owner .
Find your voice, connect with your customers and scream up the search engines with your own connected blog.
