Bespoke Websites

Too often websites dichotomise form and function. Effective websites should look good, but they should be sensitive to the demands of the information they are trying to present and not try to twist it to fit designs conceived in isolation.

Sealgar's aim in all the websites we build is to make the design work with what it is presenting. Contact us today to see what we can do for you.

Standards-compliant websites are important in an Internet landscape that sees an increasing number of browsers finding market-share. In general, we build our websites to the XHTML 1.0 Strict standard, and they are all tested against the W3C's online validator.

Table-less, CSS page design is always our goal -- for reasons of accessibility, ease of maintainability and separation of design from content. Given the current state of technology however, there are still times when the choice between tables and CSS comes down to a choice of evils, and in such cases we're inclined to take a pragmatic approach.

Hosting

As well as building websites, Sealgar has the infrastructure to host them, if that is what you require.

We run Linux-based servers, coupled with the Tomcat webserver and backed by MySQL databases. This means any site hosted with us can use enterprise-quality server-side technologies like servlets and JavaServer pages.

The costs of hosting with us will be based on the size of your site, the amount of updates you need to make per month and how much traffic you estimate seeing.

Managed Websites

Aside from our bespoke offerings, we also offer simple four-page websites. These are aimed at small businesses, B&Bs, churches and indeed anybody who want a presence on the web but cannot justify the high initial costs of a bespoke site.

For a small set-up fee and a low monthly payment you can get online for much less than you think! And because these sites are fully managed, you never have to worry about HTML, FTP or server problems. If that looks like something you or your organisation needs, get in touch.
