We do website design and development.

Progressive Edge is a Liverpool website design studio that specialises in developing fully content managed websites which pass code validation standards which are fully optimised for search engine optimisation. We can also arrange all of your hosting requirements if so required.

A content management system is installed as standard with all of the websites we develop, enabling you to log into your website anywhere, anytime using a normal website browser such as Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari or Google Chrome. Upload your news, pictures and logos, or change contact details, add services and products - all without spending an extra penny for someone else to do it for you.

We are also able to provide a lightweight, easy-to-use e-commerce system which intgrates neatly with PayPal and Google Checkout - click here to see our demo 'shop' site (opens in new window).

• Content management systems explained...
• A content management system (or CMS for short) enables you to log into your website from anywhere in the world and update content such as adding a blog/news post, updating prices or even uploading photographs from an exhibition or event.
  
  Progressive Edge provides two types of content management system - a simple version which enables you to update text and images, and a more advanced version which enables you to add news articles, add and remove pages as well as control the overall look of your site.
  
  During our initial conversation we will determine which is most suitable for both your existing and future requirements so that you have a website which functions the way your business needs it.
  
  Our content management systems (CMS) are based on an existing raw framework which we customise to your requirements. This means we're not re-inventing the wheel and you're getting a tried and tested CMS for a fraction of the cost of a custom built system.
• Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) explained...
• Search engine optimisation (SEO) is the method in which your site is optimised via (a) coding and (b) relevant content so that it can be found higher up the search engine results pages (SERPS).
  
  Progressive Edge ensures that sites are coded so that they validate with the W3C Markup Validation Services and can help advise on the best way to craft the content you want to use within your website
  
  If you don't have time to write content for your site from scratch, or if you have some copy which is not optimised for use on a website then we can put you in touch with a very good copywriter & marketing consultant who can help advise and craft your website content for you. So although we don't provide a copywriting service directly, we know a man who can!
• Bespoke website photography...
• If you're investing in your business by developing a corporate website then going the extra mile and having some publicity shots of your staff, premises or even some product photography can help push you ahead of the competition.
  
  Many websites go down the route of grabbing photographs from Google Images (naughty - you can get done for copyright infringement if you're not careful) or trawling through stock photography sites and using a generic person or product shot which isn't as transparent as showing the actual product, premises or staff member(s).
  
  Progressive Edge can help you stand out from your competitors by providing product photography, staff headshots (or corporate portraits) as well as architectural photography of your premises (or even shots of a project you may have worked on for your portfolio).
  
  Providing photography services within Liverpool and throughout the North West, take a look at our Commercial Photography section for more details of this service.
