Custom Web Development in Hampshire – Every Project is Different, Every Solution is Unique
Your business and its issues are yours, until you share them with us we can’t tell you anything meaningful about them. So, instead, here are some brief case studies to demonstrate some of the solutions we’ve delivered.
Web Development for International Business
Aiming for the Summit
From 1987 until today, Jagged Globe has been the foremost company organising high-altitude expeditions for customers. They were the first British company to organise a professionally-led attempt on Everest. Jagged Globe organise expeditions for clients worldwide.
Although we didn’t build the website but we’ve updated a huge number of projects. All whilst preserving its original design with its impressive photography.
It’s not been simple, over the years we have:
- Make the site meets Google’s mobile-friendly standard.
- To meet the emerging PCI (Payment Card Industry) DSS, we coded for the Sagepay (Opayo) online payment gateway to take deposits online.
- Completely redeveloped the online booking procedure. Returning clients can now book a trip in as few as 5 clicks.
- Implemented a application for recording client fitness. Climbing in the wilderness is not without risk and is typically physically exacting – Jagged Globe need to know that each and every customer is safe to explore.
- Integrated the Jagged Globe site with the SendInBlue email marketing system so the mailing lists are fully GDPR compliant.
- To help Jagged Globe display the many pictures that the climbers collect, we have implemented an application to upload and manage customers’ images in bulk.
Custom Web Development for e-commerce in Bishops Waltham
Rails of Sheffield, are one of most successful vendors of model railways and toys in the North of England – with a volume of orders to match. When they came to Little Fire, we needed to deliver an enterprise-level e-commerce solution.
Developed on the market-leading Shopify platform, the new Rails of Sheffield website has provided the much-needed stability to allow the business to grow.
The new site meets a number of challenges:
- The model railway market has pre-orders with exceptionally long delivery timeframes. To allow this, we have created a custom, separate pre-order system using javascript integrated directly into the Shopify framework.
- Stock management and order fulfilment is processed using Peoplevox. Little Fire Digital Limited coordinated teams of developers to get Peoplevox talking to Shopify and Rails of Sheffield’s two ebay shops.
Whatever you‘re selling, we’d really like to hear from you.
Web Development for
New Businesses Nationwide
When West Sussex medical aesthetics business, Casafia were looking to build their website, they consulted the help of Little Fire {Digital}. This was an ideal project for Little Fire; we worked with the client to design the logo and branding combining soft colours and crisp, stylish layout.
The website features online booking through the Pabau CRM – a system developed for the beauty sector.
Pabau is built to directly work with Mailchimp to handle customer emails so we built the Pabau email templates so that they matched the exact branding of the corporate site. Mailing list sign up forms on the main site add clients directly a Mailchimp mailing list and the customer can change their preferences without ever leaving casafia.com.
To keep communication simple, the chat widget plugs straight into Facebook Messenger – our client’s usual chat platform.
Website Development for Fundraising
AFC Wimbledon were in a spot of bother. They had decades robbed of their traditional home ground, Plough Lane, and had amazingly managed to buy a site and start building the their new stadium on the same street, Plough Lane, in South London.
The new ground was about to be finished but they had run out of money.
Under lunatic time pressure, we stepped forward, worked like slaves to delivered a standalone platform from which AFC Wimbledon could issue bonds to raise money from their supporters.
It has been the most successful fundraiser in the history of the English football league, and Little Fire Digital Ltd helped it to make it happen. Read the case study to find out more.
“Wimbledon fans are always at their best in a crisis and we like a challenge. So when we needed to stop control of the club being sold off in late 2019, a few of us suggested launching a Bond scheme.
That idea went from concept to a live website in a fortnight thanks to the tireless efforts of Simon and Little Fire.
They had to deal with all of the standard website challenges (design, layout, content etc) as well complying with legal regulations and compliance policies that were being finalised as we went along.
Oh, and that fortnight included Christmas and New Year. It was a difficult brief on an impossible timescale, but they threw themselves into it wholeheartedly and delivered a well-designed, easy-to-use robust and secure solution under all that pressure.
And the campaign? Well that raised over £5m in a matter of weeks and is the largest bond raise by a British football club ever. If Little Fire can produce work like this so quickly and effectively, I can only imagine how much they could achieve for your business if you give them a sensible timeframe. We are indebted to Simon and his team. You helped Bring The Dons Home.”
