Web Development in West Boldon – A Solution for Every Problem
Your business and its opportunities are yours, until you share them with us we can’t tell you anything meaningful about them. So, instead, here are few brief examples to show some of the problems we’ve managed to resolve.
Custom Website Development for Global Businesses
Aiming High
Since the late 1980s, Jagged Globe has been the foremost firm organising mountaineering trips for customers. They were the first British company to organise a professionally-led expedition to Everest. Jagged Globe serve climbers worldwide.
We didn’t construct the website but we’ve updated a huge number of projects. All whilst retaining its original design with its impressive imagery.
It’s not been straightforward, to stay up to date we have:
- Ensure the site meets Google’s mobile-friendly standard.
- To meet the emerging PCI (Payment Card Industry) requirements, we implemented the Sagepay (Opayo) payment system to take client deposits online.
- Completely redeveloped the online booking user-experience. Existing clients can now book a adventure in as few as 5 clicks.
- Wrote a system for recording customer fitness. Climbing mountains can be risky and is often physically exacting – Jagged Globe need to be confident that each climber is fit to climb.
- Integrated the company’s site with the SendInBlue email marketing system so the mailing lists are fully GDPR compliant.
- To help the company display the many images that the climbers collect, we have built tools to upload and manage clients’ images in bulk.
Custom Web Development for e-commerce in West Boldon
Rails of Sheffield, are amongst the largest online vendors of model railways and hobbies in the country – with a volume of orders to match. When they came to Little Fire Digital Limited, we needed to deliver enterprise-level e-commerce.
Developed on the rock-solid Shopify system, the new Rails of Sheffield website has proven to be the solution they need.
The new site fixes a number of problems:
- The model railways market has pre-orders with exceptionally long delivery times. To manage this, we have created a on-off, separate pre-order system using javascript integrated directly into the Shopify framework.
- Stock management and order fulfilment is processed using Peoplevox. We coordinated development teams to get Peoplevox talking to Shopify and Rails of Sheffield’s two ebay shops.
Whatever you‘re selling, we’d love to hear from you.
Website Development for
New Businesses Countrywide
When Worthing beauty clinic, Casafia were looking to build their website, they consulted the help of Little Fire {Digital Ltd}. This was an ideal task for us; Little Fire worked with the client to create the logo and branding which combines subtle colours and sharp, stylish layout.
The website integrates with the Pabau CRM – a system created specifically for the medical aesthetics market.
Pabau is directly integrated with Mailchimp to handle customer communications so we built the Pabau email templates so that they matched the exact branding of the corporate website. Mailing list subscription forms on the main website add customers straight to a Mailchimp list and the client can update their contact preferences without ever leaving casafia.com.
To keep things simple, the IRC client is built to work with Facebook Messenger – our client’s preferred text platform.
Web Development for Fundraising
AFC Wimbledon were in a bind. They had decades away from their historical home ground, Plough Lane, and had at last managed to purchase a site and start building the their new stadium on the same road, Plough Lane, in South London.
The new ground was almost completed but they had run out of money.
Under lunatic time pressure, Little Fire Digital Ltd stepped up, worked like fools to created them a unique platform from which AFC Wimbledon could sell bonds to raise money from their supporters.
It has been the greatest fundraiser in the history of the English 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.”
