Not only do our sites look incredible everywhere but we also use and adhere to the most up-to-date best practices when coding to make sure that they work perfectly on any platform.
HOW WE DO IT
We personally meet with all our clients to discuss their goals, what they are specifically aiming to achieve and what they need their site to do. This ensures that there are no misunderstandings that can lead to loss of time and extra work.
We create wireframes with our clients so that they can see their vision realised and highlight anything they would like to change before the design is actually built ensuring each element will have appropriate real estate and users will see messages in the right order.
Working together with our clients to create the design that they envision is an integral part of our process. Our clients tell us what they want and we show them our take on it. If it is not what they wanted we go through it again until they are one hundred percent satisfied.
Barsbank build all our websites in a timely fashion, all fully responsive, unique and optimized for search engines and conversion.All of our developers are trained in User Experience and Conversion Rate Optimisation to ensure a commercially focused build.
All our sites go through extensive user acceptance testing to make sure everything works the way it is supposed to and that the user experience is a good one.
Our hosting ensures that your site will load quickly and smoothly.Whether you need a dedicated server or a scalable cloud solution we have the something and we also offer a post-launch bug fixing service.
The cost of professional website design depends on the size of the website, the number of unique page layouts, the level of design detail required and whether additional services such as content creation, photography or user research are included. Barsbank begins each project by understanding your goals, audience and requirements before providing a tailored quotation. This ensures the design process is based on what your business actually needs rather than a generic package.
The timescale depends on the size and complexity of the project. A smaller business website may move through the design stage within a few weeks, while a larger website with multiple page types, detailed user journeys or several stakeholders may take longer. Barsbank provides clear milestones for discovery, wireframing, design concepts, review and approval so you know what to expect throughout the process.
Barsbank creates bespoke website designs tailored to each client’s brand, customers and commercial objectives. Rather than starting with a generic template, we plan the website structure, user journey, content hierarchy and visual style around the needs of your business. This creates a more distinctive, flexible and effective website that can support future growth.
Yes. Barsbank can redesign an existing website that looks outdated, performs poorly on mobile devices, is difficult to navigate or no longer reflects the quality of the business. We can retain valuable content and branding where appropriate while improving the visual design, page structure, user experience, calls to action and conversion journey.
Yes. The design process includes opportunities to review and approve wireframes, page layouts and visual concepts before development begins. This allows feedback to be gathered early and ensures the final direction reflects your business, brand and objectives. It is much more efficient to refine layouts during the design stage than after the website has been built.
Yes. Every Barsbank website is designed responsively so layouts adapt across desktop computers, laptops, tablets and smartphones. Mobile usability is considered from the beginning of the project, including navigation, typography, buttons, forms, images and calls to action. The aim is to provide a clear and effective experience regardless of the device being used.
UX, or user experience design, focuses on how easily visitors can understand, navigate and use a website. It considers the structure of the pages, the order in which information is presented, the clarity of navigation and the steps users take towards making an enquiry, booking or purchase. Good UX design reduces confusion, builds trust and helps more visitors complete the actions that matter to your business.
Wireframes are simplified page layouts that show the structure and positioning of important content before visual styling is added. They help define headings, images, navigation, calls to action, forms and content sections. Creating wireframes allows the layout and user journey to be reviewed before time is spent developing detailed visual designs.
Conversion-focused website design begins with understanding what visitors need to know before they feel confident enough to make contact. Barsbank uses clear value propositions, logical page structures, visible calls to action, trust signals, testimonials, project examples and well-designed enquiry forms to guide users towards taking the next step. The aim is to make the website commercially effective as well as visually attractive.
Yes. Accessibility is considered throughout the design process, including colour contrast, readable text, logical heading structures, keyboard-friendly navigation, clear form labels and visible focus states. The level of formal accessibility testing required can vary between projects, but Barsbank aims to create inclusive websites that are easier for a wider range of people to use.
Yes. Barsbank can design a website around existing brand guidelines, including approved logos, colours, typography, imagery and tone of voice. Where a business does not yet have detailed guidelines, we can help develop a consistent visual direction for the website. The goal is to create a design that feels recognisable, professional and aligned with the wider business.
Once the layouts and visual direction have been approved, the designs are prepared for development. The Barsbank development team then turns the approved designs into a responsive working website, adding the required content, forms, functionality and integrations. The site is tested before launch to ensure the final build accurately reflects the approved design and performs effectively across different devices.
