Working with Imran has been an absolutely fabulous experience. I’m a fellow website designer and so possibly the worst type of client, but Imran has gone beyond and exceeded my expectations.
I needed help building a directory with a tech set up that is not my standard. I found Imran through his wonderful YouTube channel and from the video it was clear he was an expert on the set up I was looking to use.
He was brilliantly pro active from the start, guiding me through the set up and then delivering a finished project in the time frame he set.
Most importantly the support has been really quick and on point. Nothing is too much trouble, even when I asked him to rebuild a part of the build that wasn’t working quite how we had imagined it to.
I’m now actively looking for more projects on to work with Imran as he makes things so fun, easy and enjoyable.
Imran, I can’t thank you enough - you’re a total rockstar!

Imran was an absolute pleasure to work with! I was looking to build a food blog using Elementor and he was very professional, communicative, and easy to work with. After the site was done, he walked me through handing it off, explaining in depth everything that I needed to know moving forward. I highly recommend working with him - your site will be in good hands here. More...

Working with Bats Web Designer / Web Squadron has been a pleasurer. I'm not a web designer or anything along those lines. I started this entrepreneur adventure in 2020 with out knowing or having any knowledge in website at all
. I had Elementor ever since I started the website and never knew the powerful tool I had in my hands until I found Web squadron on YouTube searching for solutions to many conflicts I had. I do not regret that decision at all, because of the support and advice that I have received from Imran I have been able to do more myself, trust myself and learn how to use the tools I have and the best part he always look for FREE options. With a lot more to learn always along side of the best team ever WEB SQUADRON.
Thank you soo much for all the great work you do!

As a growing business we needed to update our website so we used Mark at BATS Web Design.
From the get go Mark was very professional and knowledgeable on how to get our website performing better for us.
He walked us through step by step and kept us up to date with meetings, phone calls and emails to ensure we got every detail we wanted on the site.
The finished article was everything we envisioned.

Working with Web Squadron has been the greatest experience I ever had. I was struggling with website design and conversion rate so I needed a specialist to come in and help. I found web squadron on YouTube and I must say that he is one of the few that REALLY replies to email or that is accessible. Imran is very knowledgeable and very helpful, I'm super excited on how my site look and happy to keep working with them in the near future. Thank you!!! More...

Web Squadron bring amazing value to the Elementor Community. Regularl useful new content on YouTube addressing the small nuances present in WordPress and Elementor. I've been building sites for 14 years and love seeing new videos come out from Web Squadron as I more often than not, learn a new and more efficient way of accomplishing something I want to do. They clearly know their stuff. Would 100% recommend them to anyone getting into the vast world of web design and development. More...

Imran is a diamond and great to work with. He did a step by step workaround for a particular website/custom domain issue I was having and created a short video highlighting the process. What had me stumped he solved within minutes and got me going again. Can't praise him highly enough and would definitely recommend WebSquadron for all your website design needs. More...

I found Imran, the web designer, to be very approachable and helpful. It also helped that, being an aspiring writer, he has a creative mindset.
Imran was able to translate my needs/wishes into a cohesive form as well as giving sound advice about presentation and using social media to make myself known.
I would strongly recommend anyone looking to hire a web design agency to promote their product to seriously consider BATS as their first port of call.

I can only describe my BATS experience in one word - outstanding!!! I am a working professional seeking to open own business on the side of what I am currently doing, I don’t like time wasters or pushy services. BATS charmed me with their professional approach and whilst others were asking me in the initial call how am I going to pay them, BATS did the extra mile and sent me some logo samples, based on the description that I provided when registered my interest, first. I paid afterwards, completely happy, after my logo was tweaked and approved by me. It all took just one day, which still amazes me. It’s like they could read my mind! I am a perfectionist, I have set up my mind to wait a long time for that perfect logo of mine and here I am having it all nice and ready - in one day! A very happy customer indeed. HIGHLY RECOMMEND and now looking forward to my website creation. More...

I don't normally do reviews tbf but.. I spoke to couple of other designs companies and I thought I don't want all this, it was extra expense I didn't want, and luckily imran called, it was like I had already told him what I wanted, tbf I thought he was just going along with me, later on that day the wheels are in motion and then day and half later all done, sorted everything out and was keen to do it, I am so made up with my first professional website at exactly the price I wanted, I wish you called me a year ago, thank you so much, I'm so grateful, feels different and inspired & hopefully build on it, look forward to your assistance in hosting for me at a price I'm comfortable about thank you Mark from funkyhashtags ps I love the colour & logo :)

Hi Mark. I’ve seen many get crash and burnt by 123Reg and GoDaddy that make it sound so simple and forget to mention how difficult they make it. So glad you trusted and allowed us to think out of the box and get you a shop site without the traditional e-commerce route - and at a price that worked for you. And hey - we’re not done yet :) I’ll be sorting your SEO and Google Submission out tomorrow. #ThankYou!

I cannot recommend this team enough.
I was looking for a developer who could combine a listing directory with blog platform that allowed other content creators to submit blogs/vlogs to my site.
Quotes received varied from £500 - £8000.
Bats' financials make it viable for a new and/or small business to get to market at minimal cost - giving the business financial flexibility to adapt and change their website in the first 12 months.
What mostly stood out about Bats is the speed at which they can operate. While I was waiting on other developers to respond on simple questions, Imran had researched an entire new plug-in for use, explained the pros and cons to me and given me his professional recommendation. We'd signed the contract and started building before other developers even established what they could/could not build.
Imran's build speed is inspiring. The website was up within 7 days and I'm immensely proud of the quality finish. He's knowledgeable, fast and will work with you to find solutions.
For anyone looking to get an MVP to market quickly, Bats is the way to go. Keep up the amazing work Team, thanks for building such an amazing website!

I'm so glad that we got there as we both took a leap of faith with the best plugin to a) meet your aims, b) make it intuitive for users, and c) have some future proofing in place. I'm equally proud of what we've achieved (together) and wish you great success in this!

Many thanks and I really hope that you make many sales with the books and that the website helps.
What makes a great website?
A great design starts with a purpose in mind. Ask yourself, “What do I want to accomplish with this page?” If a page doesn’t have a clear purpose, consider getting rid of it. Make it aesthetically pleasing with strong visual design. Your site needs to look good. If your site looks like it was built in the 90’s, it’s time for an update. Make sure the content is relevant and original. Clear site navigation, colours, layout, and the flow from top to bottom should feel seamless.
Most of all, consider why should they look, and why should they be bothered to remain? Can we drive your message and brand across the screen to the viewer?
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
We have many questions to ensure that we scope out the content and purpose of the site such as (and don't worry if you're unsure);
1. What does your company do?
2. Who is your target audience?
3. What is your Unique Selling Proposition (USP)?
4. Do you want to improve an existing website, or create a website from scratch?
5. Do you want your site SEO optimised? Do you have a list of keywords you would like to target?
6. What is the URL of your existing site (if any)? What do you like/dislike about your existing site?
7. What is the URL of 2-3 reference websites that you like? What do you like about these websites?
8. What pages do you need on your website?
9.What features do you need on your website?
10.What is the underlying goal of your website?
11.Do you have the content ready for your site?
12.Does your company have a brand book covering things like colours and fonts?
13.When would you like to launch your new site?
14.Do you need help updating and maintaining your website?
15.Do you need help with blogging and content management?
What do you love most about your job?
Making a difference and helping others is the base and truth about why we design for small and medium businesses that are often out-priced, are sold add-ons and gimmicks that are needed to have a brilliant website, or to know how to navigate social media marketing.
What inspired you to start your own business?
From experience of seeing friends and colleagues paying over-the-top prices for products that should not be beyond their reach. We want to help, and be transparent throughout.
Why should our clients choose you?
Because we'll listen with no expectation that you use us.
You inform.
We advise,
Together, we achieve.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Online and Remotely.
We also provide MS Teams or Zoom Video Training where required. A Free 1 hr session is provided to anyone who commissions a website from us.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
When a Face to Face meeting is required, we follow all Covid-19 Guidelines in terms of hand sanitisation, social distancing, being mindful of behaviour, as well as face-masks. Because most of our comms is online, we have been able to avoid too many face to face meetings.
