Web Development
You cannot go wrong with Deep South Digital for your web development. From the beginning to the end, Stephen has been amazing as helping us create the right website for our company.
Chris Neumann
We are working more then a decade together with Stephen Sheldon in great harmony and he did not only establish and program our website, for years he is also looking after the content and keeping the site smoothly running. We can only highly recommend Stephen as a thoroughly thinker and developer with an open ear for clients wishes and needs. More...
What makes a great website?
Simple, clear messaging, ease of use and correct display on smartphones.
Don't make your users think - If people can't use your site, they won't.
Do provide answers to common questions or sales objections and make it simple and rewarding for users to take an action.
The most effective websites take note of user behaviour and modify content and layout frequently to maximise conversion.
This is what your most successful competitor is doing!
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
1. Who do you want to to reach ?
2. What do you want your audience to see?
3. What do you want them to do?
4. How will you know if they did?
Can you describe what makes your business different in less than 30 words?
Be honest about your budget, and think about running costs too.
Everything is possible, we can help you prioritise and get the best bang for your buck.
It makes sense to start with high-impact, low-cost actions, then add functionality when your business grows.
What do you love most about your job?
Helping people and understanding other businesses.
Problem solving, creativity and attention to detail.
Building stuff we are proud of.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Travelling in Southern Africa for two years and realising going back to London and wearing a suit for another 20 years was not going to lead to a fulfilling life!
Why should our clients choose you?
We genuinely get a kick out of helping people achieve their dreams - or maybe just fix a problem that's been holding them back.
The web development industry is complex and constantly changing. And it's difficult for clients to decide on who to trust for their project.
We understand this and aim to remove the pain and provide clear and cost efficient solutions.
Our clients tend to stay with us for the long-term, and our business model is built around this.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Yes! Our largest client has project managers in Beijing, Washington DC and Kenya. We have never met in person.
