Accelerated Training Consultancy LLP - Bradford 

Accelerated Training Consultancy LLP

ATC are keen to rank highly in search engines and so we have configured their site for SEO as well as installing a sitemap extension. They next plan to work on their content - which of course is all important.

In addition Beverley and Karen - partners - have opted for the Wynchcote Unlimited Hosting Plan (no limits to disk space or bandwidth) using our UK server. 

 

CAW Skills - Warrington 

CAW Skills - Warrington

"Thank you so much for your speedy attention to getting my web site up and running as a holding page and my ‘design site’ under Joomla.  I cannot believe the speed we are moving at and it is so nice to know someone has a goal date in mind – if it was up to me I know I would keep putting it off as it is something I am scared of – technology!!"

"In 2 days I have gone from a draft business card, to a web page and new email address to 5 headings on my design web page." Cheryl. 

 

Rejuvenart - Warrington

Julie at Rejuvenart was unhappy with the service provided by another company which was charging excessive hosting fees.

We rebuilt the site on the Joomla! platform with no adverse impact on her Google rankings. She can now easily add content herself!

Julie makes full use of Joomla! modules to cross-sell across her site.

 

Greenfields Deli-Bistro - Warrington 

Greenfields Deli-Bistro, Warrington

Dave at Greenfields wanted a professional-looking dynamic website to promote his new business.

Budget was clearly an issue for a new business start-up. We consulted with Dave thoughout the design process and feel very proud to have been able to do what we did within his tight budgetary constraints.

 

Ronald R Brown & Associates - Warrington 

Ronald R Brown & Associates, Warrington

Ron's architectural design and planning consultancy was receiving a very poor deal from a national web design and hosting company, proof that you do not always get what you pay for!

His site - a static design - was built by his previous host. When asked, we were happy to provide reliable hosting, email and SEO support.

 

Nirvana Natural Health - Salford

Irina at Nirvana has done a great job adding content to her site - following a couple of coaching sessions by Ken Edwards after her site was built.

The site is hosted using our Dynamic Plan, enabling Irina to make full use of the corporate email facility - enhancing her business web profile. 

 

SIDCO Limited - Stockport

"Wynchcote Solutions were attentive to our needs and provided a personal service. The flexibility to change our content, at minimal cost, as the business has grown and changed, has been a real benefit to us.

We recommend their services." Simon Hunt (Director)

Dingle CLP have taken one of our Starter templates hosted using our Dynamic Hosting Plan.

Their aim is to manage their content in this format initially. When funds become available they will commission a customised Joomla!.

This site is built on the latest Joomla! 1.5 platform. 

 

Team Oasis - Liverpool

Team Oasis are currently switching content from a static site to their new Joomla! built using a Starter template provided FREE with our Dynamic Hosting Plan.

Clubs

Grange Sports & Social Club - Warrington

This extensive site was built on a tight budget on the Joomla! 1.0 Platform.  It is hosted using our Dynamic Hosting Plan.

A few months later we converted the site to Joomla! 1.5 and upgraded all the previously installed extensions.

We added a great new easy to use Image Gallery Plugin and configured a 'not so easy to use' Googlemaps Plugin on behalf of Grange Sports & Social Club.

 

Bank Quay Club - Warrington

Built on the same 'chassis' as the Grange Club website, this site nevertheless very distinctive. 

In addition to image rotators and image galleries, the build incorprates plugins for the display of multimedia content - including such content hosted externally (saving disk space and bandwidth!).

Mariam at Al-Saneef is using one of our Starter templates and the Dynamic Hosting Plan to improve her Joomla! skills before developing a community site with our assistance.

Mariam has attended two of our How to Joomla! Workshops.

We are excited about assisting her with the development of a bi-lingual site in Englsih and Arabic using some great FREE Joomla! extensions. 

 

Turnitaround - Liverpool

Debra discovered Joomla! at one of our workshops run on behalf of Liverpool SSE.

She won't mind me saying that she finds working on her site quite daunting - but would agree that it is a lot easier and cheaper than using a web development software application!  

 

Yendidi Limited - Liverpool

Henry at Yendidi is in the development stages of using one of our Webmags in support of work he is undertaking with members of community groups and schoolchildren across Liverpool.
