BUT Web Design is much more than this; it is the considered and carefully planned creation of a solution to meet a requirement and achieve its targets and goals.

Our Philosophy
Mad Web Designs' philosophy is simple. We aim to provide a quality web site that you will be proud of, at a reasonable cost and to get it online and working for you in as short a time as possible. We've been working in an expanding industry since 2003 & even now the K.I.S.S. principle (Keep It Simple Stupid) still holds true.

How much?
The question we get asked most often is 'How much is a web-site?' This is rather like asking how long is a piece of string! The cost of your site depends on many factors - the complexity of the design and total number of pages being the main considerations. We will build your site to your exact requirements, you will be involved throughout the design of your site, from the initial discussion of how you would like the site to look (often achieved by reference to other sites you like) through to the final item and beyond. We never forget that it is your site and should reflect your personality throughout.

Beware of a very low quotations for a new web site! These are highly likely to prove to be a costly mistakes. To produce a quality web site that is of a professional level visually, and coded using the correct methods for the search engines, takes a great deal of work and time. In most cases, web sites are created to an amateur level, done quickly by cutting corners to get to your money fast. Even sites that look visually good are very often coded completely wrong for the search engines. So, if you get a low quotation, be cautious... As in any purchases you choose to make, you will get what you pay for!
