Bespoke Web Development in Norfolk – Every Project is Unique, Every Solution Different
Your business is your own, you’ll know more about it than we can guess at. So, instead, here are some micro examples to demonstrate some of the problems we’ve managed to resolve.
Website Development for International Business
Reaching for the Top
Since the late 1980s, Jagged Globe has been the foremost firm organising mountaineering adventures for customers. They were the first British company to organise a professionally-run expedition to Everest. Jagged Globe organise trips for customers globally.
We didn’t construct the Jagged Globe website but we have completed a huge number of projects, whilst keeping the original design and its beautiful imagery.
It’s not been straightforward, over the years we have had to:
- Ensure the Jagged Globe website meets Google’s mobile-friendly requirements.
- To meet the emerging PCI (Payment Card Industry) regulations, we implemented the Sagepay (Opayo) payment system to take client deposits online.
- Massively simplified the online booking procedure. Returning climbers can now book a trip in as few as 5 clicks.
- Wrote a system for recording climber capacity. Climbing at high altitudes is not without risk and is typically physically demanding – Jagged Globe need to know that each and every climber is fit to explore.
- Integrated the company’s website with the SendInBlue email marketing platform so the mailing lists are fully GDPR compliant.
- To help the company show the many photos that the climbers collect, we have built tools to upload and manage clients’ pictures in bulk.
Custom Web Development for e-commerce in East Dereham
Amongst the most successful online vendors of model railways and toys in the north of England, with a volume of orders to match, Rails of Sheffield needed Little Fire Digital to develop an enterprise-level e-commerce solution.
Developed on the rock-solid Shopify platform, the new Rails of Sheffield website has provided the much-needed stability to allow the business to grow.
The new site fixes a number of problems:
- The model railway marketplace has pre-orders with very long delivery times. We have created a custom, separate pre-order basket and checkout using javascript integrated directly into the Shopify framework.
- Stock management and order fulfilment is processed using Peoplevox. Little Fire Digital Limited coordinated development teams to get Peoplevox talking to Shopify and Rails of Sheffield’s two ebay stores.
Whatever you‘re selling, we’d love to hear from you.
Website Development for
New Businesses Nationwide
Little Fire Digital developed the online presence for Worthing beauty practice, Casafia, when they needed something unique. This was a perfect job for Little Fire; we worked with the client to design the logo and branding which features subtle colours and crisp, stylish design.
The website integrates with the Pabau Customer Relationship Management System – a system developed for the beauty clinic sector.
Pabau directly works with Mailchimp to handle customer emails so we designed the Pabau email templates so that they matched the lovingly created design of the corporate website. Mailing list sign up forms on the site add users directly a Mailchimp list and the user can manage their contact preferences without ever leaving casafia.com.
To keep things simple, the IRC widget works with Facebook Messenger – our client’s regular chat platform.
Bespoke Website Development for Fundraising
AFC Wimbledon were in a fix. They had decades robbed of their traditional home ground, Plough Lane, and had amazingly managed to acquire a site and start building the their new home ground on the same street, Plough Lane, in Wimbledon.
The new ground was about to be completed but they had run out of money.
Under mad time pressure, we stepped forward, worked like fools and developed a bespoke platform from which the club could sell bonds to raise money from their supporters.
It has been the greatest fundraiser in the history of the football league, and we 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.”
