Great Low Cost Web Sites The Easy Way!
imagic.co.uk produces great looking web sites that create a strong impression with low initial investment, and low running costs. And, should you need to expand your site, the designed-in development path continues the low cost approach and protects and builds on your initial investment. These are not your usual "cheapo" sites that ultimately undermine your business' credibility and you find yourself making excuses for, but an asset to your business that you will want people to see. Our sites are produced with industry standard tools (not with "easy-site" DIY packages that don't work well with search engines) by genuine, industry experienced designers that understand communicating from the page be it paper or digital. Our aim is to provide the best value and potential for "return on investment".
So what's different about imagic.co.uk?
Imagic.co.uk provides strong, eye-catching, professionally built web sites at a very accessible price point. Using our innovative and highly cost effective, customizable, modular system of integrated elements, you choose the format, page styles and components you want from our "menus". Then supply us your content, (text, logo and images etc.), and we put it together for you, quickly and efficiently. It's that simple. You can either use our interactive system to customise the key parts of the site yourself (overall structure, banner & buttons), or use one of our pre-set combinations (which is still customisable). There are nearly 3.5 million possible combinations, and that's before the colour has been touched!
And all this starts from only £375! (ex. VAT)
Accommodates your corporate style - No compromises
The system can accommodate any corporate colour scheme you already have as standard, and with the "Customised Banner" option can be made to follow your corporate identity even more closely by incorporating more of your company's branding. In addition to the basic site components, a range of additional features and options allow you to tailor your site to suit your budget and requirements.
Protect your initial investment - Built-in extendabilty
Looking beyond your initial site, imagic.co.uk also offers a clear and simple incremental path towards developing a more comprehensive and sophisticated site with the advantages of easier cost management and minimising excessive re-development costs. For example, if you started with one of our "Starter Sites" and subsequently wanted to add a new section or pages, or wanted to present content in a more sophisticated way, the achitecture for this is already built in and all we need to do is implement it. You only buy what you need, when you need it.
Low running costs - Owner maintainable
Because we construct our sites using Macromedia™ products, you can maintain many aspects of your site yourself using Macromedia Contribute™ (typically costs around £70 + VAT), if you so wish. This has an easy to use browser like interface that allows you to make changes to your site without the need for expert knowledge. If you'd rather we did the maintenance for you, we can do this either on an ad-hoc, competitively priced "menu" basis, or on a fixed monthly fee basis, whichever suits your circumstances best.
Who are these sites aimed at?
These sites are aimed at anyone who needs a professional looking website but dosen't want to pay the usual design agency/consultancy prices. They are particularly suited to small business and the self employed who can't justify the usual high costs of getting a decent web site, new businesses where a good web presence is critical but start-up costs need to be carefully managed and businesses where a web site doesn't seem necessary but is noticed by its absence. By mixing and matching our ranges of components we can accommodate most requirements easily. These ranges include designs specially formulated for:
Professional practices
Such as Accountants/Financial, Solicitors, Medical Practices, Consultancies, etc. Where providing backgroud information about expertise and key people is of importance. Includes pages suited to displaying photos and information about key people.
"Gallery/Folio" styles for displaying many images
Particularly suited to Artists, Photographers, Interior Designers, Industrial Designers, Furniture Makers, etc. Includes "gallery" pages of thumbnail images that link to full sized images.
Customer Service Businesses
Where displaying clear lists of products and services with pricing and/or product codes etc. such as Hairdressers, Beauty Salons, Garages, etc.
Businesses that present tabular information
Such as timetables, calendars, technical data, etc.

How do we deliver such value?
Experience shows that most sites use a small range of structures, formats and page styles. So, rather than building sites from scratch, we developed a flexible system of customisable templates that cover most requirements.
By integrating these templates with a range of pre-designed (but again, customisable) navigational elements and graphics, it is possible to produce sites in far less time, as most of the technical and creative work has already been done,
Because all the components are tried and tested we have all but eliminated time consuming teething problems.
We ask you to supply finalised copy, marked up (see "Supplying Content" section) in a way that enables us to input and configure your content quickly, again saving time.
We ask for a deposit before work begins, and the balance before commissioning the site on your server, so we all but eliminate the need for credit control, which reduces our "non-productive" overheads.
As an internet based company, we do not need expensive shop or office space.
