Web Development in Haydock – A Solution for Every Project
Your business is yours and you’ll know more about it than we can guess at. So, instead, here are some quick examples to show some of the problems Little Fire Digital Ltd have managed to fix.
Bespoke Web Development for Worldwide Businesses
Aiming for the Top
For over 35 years, Jagged Globe has been one of the leading operators organising high-altitude adventures for clients. They were the first British company to organise a professionally-run attempt on Everest. Jagged Globe serve customers around the world.
Although we didn’t design the website but we’ve done a huge number of projects, whilst retaining its original design with its beautiful photography.
It’s not been simple, to stay up to date we have:
- Ensure the site meets Google’s mobile-friendly requirements.
- To meet the emerging PCI (Payment Card Industry) DSS, we implemented the Sagepay (Opayo) online payment gateway to take client deposits online.
- Massively simplified the online booking procedure. Returning customers can now book a trip in as few as 5 clicks.
- Developed a procedure for recording customer health. Climbing mountains is not without danger and is normally physically demanding – Jagged Globe need to know that each and every customer is safe to climb.
- Integrated the company’s website with the SendInBlue email marketing system so the mailing lists are completely GDPR compliant.
- To help the client display the many photos that the climbers collect, we have developed systems to upload and manage climbers’ photos in bulk.
Bespoke Web Development for Online Retail in Haydock
Amongst the busiest online vendors of model railways and toys in the North, with a volume of sales to match, Rails of Sheffield needed Little Fire Digital Ltd to create enterprise-level e-commerce.
We delivered a new website on the rock-solid Shopify system which has provided the much-needed stability to allow the business to grow.
The new site meets a number of challenges:
- The model railway marketplace has pre-orders with extraordinarily long delivery timeframes. We have created a on-off, distinct 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 Ltd coordinated development teams to get Peoplevox talking to Shopify and the client’s two ebay stores.
Whatever you have to sell, we’d love to hear from you.
Web Development for
New Businesses Countrywide
Little Fire Digital helped build the website for Worthing medical aesthetics clinic, Casafia, when they needed something personal. An ideal task for Little Fire; we worked with our client to design the logo and branding which combines soft colourways and crisp, modern design.
The website integrates with the Pabau Customer Relationship Management System – a system designed for the beauty clinic sector.
Pabau is seamlessly integrated with Mailchimp to handle customer emails so we completed the Pabau email templates so that they matched the exact branding of the main website. Mailing list sign up forms on the main site add users straight to a Mailchimp mailing list and the customer is able to manage their settings without ever leaving casafia.com.
To keep communication simple, the IRC widget is built to work with Facebook Messenger – our client’s regular chat platform.
Custom Web Development for Fundraising
AFC Wimbledon were in a bind. They had decades ejected from their traditional home ground, Plough Lane, and had at last managed to purchase 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 insane time pressure, we stepped up and worked like slaves to delivered a one-off platform from which the club could issue bonds and raise money from their supporters.
It has been the most successful fundraising project in the history of the 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.”
