Web design London is a competitive niche, and we're fighting hard to rise to the top. That's why when you're looking for a web designer, London, and Fat Cow Media is the place to be. Our custom CMS is designed specifically for you, around you. We won't convince you to use a generic one just because it's easy. We'll build one for you, ensuring the site does exactly what you want it to, in the way you want it to.
For web designers, London is a creative mecca full of inspiration and design influences. If we ever get stuck, a quick walk round the streets of London soon clears our head and provides that much needed boost. Then we can walk right back to our offices and get back to work. It isn't all about London though, we recently launched another division in New York to offer an international service to our clients. The combination of web design London culture, mixed with that of New York is producing some amazing results.
We have been in business in web design London for many years, and have plenty of success under our belts. As web designers, London is a natural base from which to work. Not only does the capital have thousands of businesses all vying for trade, but we have excellent links to the rest of the country, and indeed the world. Plus, London is a world renowned trade centre and attracts a lot of business from overseas.
Much of our work is done online, but as web designers, London isn't the only place we'll work. If the project warrants it we will travel anywhere in the world to get a job done. That said, it does have to be something spectacular for us web designers, London is our home and we love it.
Some of the services we offer are: Web design, Custom CMS, Flash Animation, Hosting, Site Optimisation, Copywriting, Print Design and Branding.
Web design is our main activity, and the one that takes most of our time, but we always have enough time to talk through requirements with new and existing clients. If you're looking for web designers, London is the place to search, and Fat Cow Media is the company to talk to.
So you have a killer site written by the best in web design, an intuitive CMS to make running it easier, and a head full of ideas to grow the site and expand your internet empire. But how do you get from zero to hero? Posting the content isn't enough on its own. While good, original content is sure to bring in the visitors, you need much more than that to become the world's number one.
We tend to talk quite a lot about marketing. Partly because we offer promotion and SEO services as part of our product portfolio, but also because we want the cream to rise to the top. The good stuff out there deserves to be seen and we want to help people get the recognition they deserve. Content is only part of the equation, an important one yes, and something we have covered before, and will cover again no doubt. The content is why people will visit, it's what makes it all worthwhile for both you and the visitor.
We're not going to talk about the obvious things like adding a blog, paying for Adwords or other PPC marketing here. we're going to cover simpler, more effective things that anyone can do to promote their site. With the exception of having a brand created they don't cost a penny either. Just a little time and imagination.
Having a coherent brand is a great way of marketing a website. If it's a company website, even better. Everything that you produce that's related to the site needs a brand. When you first get your site, have a brand designed and put it on everything you do. Every letter, email, invoice, enquiry, business card and whatever else must be branded. They must include your website address, email, and any social media contact details you might have. Giving clients and contacts the means of engaging with you in as many ways as possible is the best way of marketing your website.
Writing guest posts is also a very effective way of creating back links, establishing yourself as an expert and getting your name out there. We guest post on sites around the subject of web design and web designers. Partly because the term sums us up, but also because we love the subject and want to share that love. It not only gets the word out about you and your site, but it's a great way of meeting new people and creating a personal and professional network.
Offer something for free. Yes, we know it isn't going to make you any money, but think of it as an investment. Put yourself in the mind of the average surfer. Think about arriving at a site that had a really cool e-book, or icon set for free. How would it make you feel? If the freebie is of good enough quality it's going to make the visitor keeping checking back to see what else you're offering. Eventually they'll explore the rest of the site and maybe even spread the word.
All these things take time and dedication for little initial payoff. They are an investment though, and with time and repetition should become second nature, and begin paying dividends.

| London web designers are god, but even we can't see into the future. Predicting what's to come is an impossible thing to do with any real success, but there are some things we see on the horizon that look promising. The world of web design and development is one that is constantly evolving as new techniques and technologies appear. That makes it one of the most difficult industries to try and predict, but we're going to do it anyway.
There are things coming that look more like certainties each day that passes, but even that's no guarantee. So there are a...

| The web design industry is based mostly around projects and is as far forward as the embryonic stage of a design looks. The other elements of being a London web designer look much further into the future, especially when offering hosting and support services to clients, but the design stage is a project, and requires efficient project management in order to deliver on its promises.
So we all need some project management skills in order to make our business a success. Fortunately there are some fairly simple rules to be followed in order to deliver a successful one. As I have...

| The IE series is losing market share, Firefox and Chrome are gaining. Internet Explorer 8 received mixed reviews and still poses a few security headaches for users. So what's next? What are Microsoft going to do to turn things around? They are learning, and fast.
As a London web designer, I have my own opinion of the IE series. As a creator of custom CMS it didn't always do me any favours. It has many foibles, problems and interesting problems to solve. While it provided a challenge, it made things awkward sometimes, having to write specific code to work around its...

| SEO considerations are one of the most important design aspects of a successful website. While design and functionality are primary factors, the SEO aspect of a design is also something a designer has to bear in mind. We all know that to increase the SEO pull of a site you need good, original content and backlinks to the site.
That isn't all you need though, there are several things you can incorporate into a site to improve its on-site SEO immeasurably. First and most obvious is a blog, like the one you're reading. A blog is a great way of adding...
