Simon and his team were quick and responsive to our requests for changes to tweak the initial designs into a finished product. That meant we got a good logo design completed in a matter of days. More...

Like many IT experts, Simon M Lewis from 79DESIGN speaks a separate language to us lesser mortals, so needs the patience of a Saint when attempting to describe the intricacies of designing a website for those of us who still think of a personal computer as a typewriter with a memory. ..It took a while to arrive on the same wavelength, but the end result is an accessible website offering ten years of detailed research to the wider public, including access to academic papers and professional reports. The website is now accessed by academics across the UK and across the globe, and by chronically ill and disabled people fighting for justice.Working with Simon in my corner guarantees that the research will always be widely available, and I have the confidence to know that regular updates of my work are guaranteed by this professional and highly skilled IT expert.

79Design provided me with a Wordpress site for my blog, 'Mum's Gone To...' in 2016 and I was delighted with the result. The support has continued seamlessly over the last three years. I know I can rely on Simon and 79Design to host my site securely. Excellent communication: if I have a query it is always answered swiftly. Highly recommended for personal, professional service.

We found Simon to be very responsive to both out of hours requests and difficult questions. The website chat box is a very good responsive touch, and we really appreciated his late Saturday night instant changes to our website when we were discussing our final touches/changes before launch. Before working with Simon our website was indexed and available on Google but was not being listed in searches. Since Simon stepped in and rebuilt our website, we went from page 10, to page 5 to page 2 in google search in our area within 2 weeks! More...

Thanks Simon :) More...

Simon visited our school to discuss aspects of Wordpress to help with our website. He was very friendly, knowledgeable and willing to help. We were able to understand some basic aspects of the process and Simon has offered to do a diagnosis of the website to help make it easier for us to add and remove data. I would have liked a day of working from the ground up but was aware of the limitations due to hosting and our time away from work. However I would definitely recommend getting in contact with this company as they are very knowledgeable in website design and creation and have a helpful and friendly attitude. More...

Simon came to my home to help me familiarise myself with my MacPro. He was informative, helpful and very patient. He was generous with his time and we went over the two hours we'd allotted. He was also very helpful when I just 'chatted' on line when I had a problem with a virus and he was able to sort it out for me. I would definitely recommend him and his company. More...

If this is the website I am thinking of, it's been live now for a few months, and we are enjoying working with this client. They have been very hospitable, and quick to respond to to enable us to update the website appropriate.
What makes a great website?
A design that invites you in to look around rather than just look at the homepage and leave. One that looks just as good on a mobile device, as is does on a full screen desktop machine.
One that has some user interaction, colour changing of buttons, not too much movement, clear and well-sized images, and looks like it has had a lot of love and care given to it.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
What can we really do for you? What would make your website feel very special to you?
Do you need us to support you in making new additions and changes to the website once complete, or do you just want it to... thank you... end of story?
Do you already have your own domain name, and/or company logo? And is that logo available for us to use, as we will use it to get some idea of design branding and colour.
What do you love most about your job?
Finding the answers to problems and making the magic really happen.
A client calling up and saying "I don't know if this is possible... but...."....
Hearing someone say or email to us "our website looks like an App on our phone!!!".
That first moment we show a new website to the client, and the look in their eyes.
What inspired you to start your own business?
After many years in the website design "trade", working for large corporates to smaller companies, leaving a job I began working for myself for a few others, and it just grew and became a life long ambition come true.
To be at the demand of people who love what I do, and the performance I give each day.
Why should our clients choose you?
I am highly trustworthy, having handled very sensitive information in previous roles (including Payroll positions). I now look after a great many websites and control panels that "run" the site servers. This trust is with me, and I am proud to say that I do all that in my stride, as I have grown very use to that role and responsibility. We manage five website servers that run all manner of sites. Some servers have just one site that are extremely busy. Others handle multiple sites, and one manages only email!
From a personal point of view my business is not pushy - I am very approachable, and I hope those who have given their testimonials on our Blog, demonstrate that. Easy to contact at most times of the day and evening. This business is not a 9-5 role. It's often more likely 830 - 8.30pm.
I very much look forward to working with anyone who likes this passion for work, and wants to work with someone who shares that view.
