Used many web developers in the past but never come across a team so professional and fun to work with, Andy somehow gets everything you want and you only have to explain to him once! I swear i have never been more excited and stress free throughout this whole process, my website is absolute class and compliments my brand perfectly and the feedback has been incredible. Seriously guys don't waste your time and hard earned money with cowboy developers who promise you the world and 6 months later they come back with soggy fish and chips that have accidently been stepped on, Or so called experts who paint their own picture but cant paint yours. Andy is the man! you get what you expect plus more! Thanks again guys x More...

Inside Out
We chose Shape to develop our new website after meeting with countless other web design agencies from across the UK. We found Shape to be more experienced and practised in SEO as well as offering the best design ideas for our new site. The service to date has been sensational and we are now the proud owners of a super modern, super cool website thanks to the guys at Shape. More...

Love working with Shape! When I first met Andy he instantly "got" my vision for the business and for the website and he made what I had in my head come to life - but so much better! I am so happy with the site, we've had so many compliments on it and I recommend them to other business owners all the time. The whole team are great and I know they are always only an email away (special shout-out to Adam who I have pestered on many an occasion and who always pulls through!) Thanks guys! More...

I was really lost when it came to how to go about setting up a website. I didn't even have an idea how much it would cost. As soon as I contacted shape they stood out. Andy was very understanding and took into account the requirements and constraints I had. I contacted a lot of other developers after him but I just wasn't satisfied with what they were offering or was not comfortable taking a risk. I'm glad I came back to Andy later on as he was spot on. As soon as he showed me what he could do I knew I had picked the right people. The website looks great! They answered all my questions. Made changes as I asked. And I'm really happy with the overall outcome. When it comes to having any other work done I will definitely be going back. More...

We absolutely love our website that was designed and built by Shape. Deciding on a web design studio in manchester was difficult as there was so many, but Shape stood out from the crowd from the start with their quality of work and personable approach.
We are in a crowded market but I believe we have a unique eCommerce website that not only looks great, but functions great also!
I can highly recommend Shape.

I've worked with Shape a few times now and have found that they deliver truly consistent quality. They teach you to understand their process from design through to development and leave you with the knowledge, capability and confidence to be able to run your own website in-house. I'd recommend them every time and look forward to working with them again in the future. More...

Shape created a fantastic eCommerce website for me and my business. This was all brand new to me as I've never setup a website before but Andy made the process enjoyable and I learnt so much throughout it all.
I researched other web design studios and met other companies but I'm very glad I decided to go with Shape for their quality of work, friendly personalities and industry knowledge.

We have worked with the guys at Shape for about three years on several websites. They are a talented bunch and great to work with. They have sharp end knowledge of website construction and are skilled at interpreting what you state you want and turning it into what you really need; they make your ideas work for you. These guys are not the biggest agency, but they are one of the best. Use them and you won't go wrong. More...

Everything about Shape Design Studio is fantastic. The site is amazing and easy to get around while the lads made the experience of working with them a pleasure.
I found them all to be down to earth and ready for a laugh while at the same time their expertise and dedication shines through.
I cannot recommend them enough. If you have a Web based project then without a doubt make them your first port of call.

Our business needed to work with a web design company who understood our business requirements for our new website, but also allowing us to have sole control on future up dates of the site moving forward.
The site in the back end needed to be simply for us to manage and up date with the latest technologies and layout etc. We looked at many companies before choosing Shape and we can confirm they may not be the biggest, however as we have found you do not have to be , just give great service and support in delivering the end result.Great guys to work with.
Not being a natural technically IT wise I am personally finding working with these guys easy and I am adopting new skills which will help me to pass on and use in others areas of the business when it comes to marketing material. Website still in early development due to launch early 2015.
Highly recommend !!!

I asked the guys at Shape to create a website for my business that had a glossy finish,was easy to use and be totally different from my competitors. The resulting website was exactly what I wanted. The team were friendly and extremely helpful. I genuinely believe that if I had used anybody else I would not have had the same results.I would recommend this company to anyone. More...

What makes a great website?
Research into your brand, your target audience and products / services. Great design, UX / UI, functionality AND content. All these components need to be of a certain standard for you to get the best out of a website. There is no point in having a great website then not promoting it. And there's no point in promoting a bad website.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
Do you have an existing website?
What does you website do?
What do want it to achieve? And will that be different in 6 months time?
Do you have a timescale?
Do you have a specific budget?
What do you love most about your job?
Meeting new clients. I love listening to new entrepreneurs ideas, and witnessing the passion they have to succeed in their own venture.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I worked for the biggest agencies in the UK and have worked with some of the biggest brands around the world, but I didn't feel hands on with the client. I setup my own agency 7 years ago and we're going from strength to strength. For more info visit: http://madebyshape.co.uk/
