We are delighted with our new Pandorella ecommerce website and were impressed with the overall management of the project by Aaron and his team. They listened to us to understood what our requirements were and developed a plan and delivered it on time. Highly recommended company and we look forward to working with them in the future.

Emma came highly recommended to me and has been a pleasure to deal with throughout my project. She knows her stuff and has helped our business leap forward to another level. In a matter of weeks we moved from low Google rankings to the first page. I don't quite understand what she did (although she did try to explain!!) but it has helped us become a key dominant player in our niche and local area. Already we are seeing the impact this has had. Having Emma on board to steer us in the right direction has been brilliant. Our next project involves rejigging and rebranding our range and of course, we have asked Emma to help us with that :)
At MXWebsites, we fuse deep technical knowledge with experts in UX/UI to create bespoke websites for our clients. With a team of over 20, we work with clients looking to maximise their ability to scale online. We specialise in the design and development of conversion based websites that grow online revenue for our clients. Typically working on user friendly e-commerce websites, we also have experience with content heavy sites.
A lot of agencies follow a similar format when designing a website. However, it often depends on the complexity of the web project. We would advise agreeing on technical functionality either during the RFP process or prior to designs starting. This will help everyone to have a clear idea of sitemaps and development requirements. You can then move on to wireframing, and eventually designs. We’d also advise on leaving enough time to complete thorough UAT (User Acceptance Testing) so that you can be confident that the site will function correctly when it goes live.
We are a specialist web agency so we don’t have a team of digital marketers. However, we do work with a number of partners that can work on the project alongside our team. In this way we ensure that our websites are designed and developed with marketing in mind.
Again, this can vary dramatically depending on the client and the scope of the project. We have mandatory meetings at key milestones during the project, as well as input from the client. However, we understand that while some clients want to be heavily involved in the design, others prefer to give the agency free rein. Key inputs are usually providing content (text, imagery, video), as well as sign off on design and UAT.
How much is Web Design?
How much does web design cost? This is something that can be incredibly difficult to put a figure on due to the nature of the service. There are also differences based on whether you are looking to work with a freelancer or a web design agency, and also whether you need a large, complicated site or something more simple.
We can help you to connect with the right designer to suit your needs. A clear idea of what you need, and how many pages and features are required, will be influential when it comes to pricing. This will help you to get an accurate quote for web design.
Web Designer vs Web Developer - What’s the Difference?
These two terms may seem like they are used interchangeably but they are two different things. A designer will be focused on the visual and creating a UI to suit the user, whereas a web developer is usually focused on the actual core of the website, making it function and using coding to enable it to do what it is supposed to.
When working with a web designer, if you want the whole package of a fully finished and functioning website, check that this is something they can offer before you employ their services. Make sure you have understood if they are offering web design or development, or both.
Types of Web Design
Responsive - A responsive web page design means that the site is viewable on a number of devices. The design automatically sizes to the screen and the designer doesn’t need to make formats for different devices and desktops.
Liquid or Fluid - This is a style of design that will shrink or stretch to the shape of the browser, and the page will look enlarged or shrunk, rather than items being rearranged. The size of the items in the design alter in relation to one another depending on the browser being used.
Fixed design - Fixed pages do not alter according to the browser automatically. On some devices such as tablets this can make it harder to see the content as you need to scroll around the page or pinch the screen in order to zoom in on sections. Though it is sometimes essential, fixed design is becoming less common.
How do I check a Web Designer’s credentials?
Whether you are working with a freelancer or a big agency, they will have a portfolio for you to view. This allows you to see other, similar projects they have worked on and decide if they have the skills you need.
There are a number of web design certifications and they may be happy to share any they have attained, but there isn’t one standardized industry body.
If you are worried about a designer’s credentials you can also check their feedback from other clients, which you can view on their Bark profile.
Web Design freelancer vs agency
Should you work with a freelancer or an agency? This is one of the decisions you need to make when looking to plan a web design project.
Working with a freelance Web Designer
This may be an option that can save you money. Freelancers are often able to charge less as they don’t have the same overheads as an agency.
Working with a Web Design agency
Web design agencies may have a bigger set of skills to draw upon than a freelancer as they will usually have a number of staff and designers working for them. They may also be able to show you a bigger portfolio, but you can expect to pay more when using an agency.
