Moonshine Design believes that every web site should be as unique as possible, we don't use a template page and just fill in clients details, we discuss various topics - the web sites goals, target audience, layout, design, keywords and much more. After consultation we start with a blank sheet / screen and perceive the sites structure, navigation, content and design, during this development stage search engine friendliness, accessibility and any other specifications agreed on are built-in.
Once we have produced the draft site its published on the internet for private viewing, any adjustments can then be implemented, after clients approval the complete web site is transferred to their Internet Service Provider (ISP). Clients are supplied with a CD of the site and we keep a back up copy for security. Complete web site maintenance services are available with various levels of site updating and search engine submission.
Web sites can be built incorporating Flash, Gif animation, WAP, database integration, e-commerce etc.
We offer tailor made solutions to fit ALL budgets, contact us now to discuss your unique requirements.
Our Hosting Service is very flexible, we don't require customers to take out more web space and bandwidth than required. Extra bandwidth and web space can be increased as and when the need arises, they can also be purchased separately, creating maximum flexibility.
All hosting packages come complete with a web panel to view site statistics and logs, unlimited e-mail forwarding ie. anythingyouwant@yourdomain-name.co.uk
If you are using one of our hosting packages, .co.uk & org.uk domain names can be transferred to our server free of charge* domain names can also be transferred away from our server free of charge.
We believe this is probably the best package on offer anywhere.
* Excluding all NIC renewal fees as and when due.
There are many issues covered under this heading, all of which effect your web site:
1. SYSTEMS: PCs (Personal Computers) and Macs (Apple Macintosh).
Both of these computers will view your web site differently, most web sites can be viewed by PCs, some will appear different on a Mac, worse still, some will not be visible/compatible at all.
Although the PC way out numbers the Mac, they still make up a sizable amount of potential customers ( 3.5% of operating systems used on the net in Nov. 2000 were Mac - source: websnapshot.mycomputer.com )
We use both to design and check web site accessibility on the internet.
2. BROWSER COMPATIBILITY:
The main two are Internet Explorer and Netscape ( IE has 75.2%, Netscape 17% of the browsers used on the net in Nov. 2000 - source: websnapshot.mycomputer.com ) these browsers can view web sites completely differently, with Netscape being unable to see certain pages at all. We recommend compatibility for both, or building a mirror site to be viewed using Netscape.
3. ACCESS FOR ALL:
There is 8.6 million people in the UK with some form of disability, including 1.7 million who have trouble seeing or can't see at all.
In May 1999 the government launched the Web Accessibility Initiative's, (WAI) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines and according to a report from the Royal National Institute for the Blind (RNIB) of 17 high street companies web sites, none fulfill all of the basic criteria required for making them accessible to the visually impaired.
Don't lose out on all these customers, speak to us about making your site accessible to all.

Moonshine Design only purchase Domain Names inclusive of our Hosting Services.
Multiple domain name purchases inclusive of hosting and design services please contact us for details.
We offer this service to clients who are finding it difficult to find a suitable domain name. It's a fact that nearly every word in the dictionary, all three letter combinations and a vast amount of dynamic names and phrases have already been purchased in .com, and .co.uk.
Even if your company name is available i.e. jyzx.com, it can also be beneficial to purchase a more generic name e.g. if your company JYZX sell shoes it might also be useful to acquire a name such as shoes.com or something similar and catchy like shoes4u.com (both names taken).
Let us do the hard work, Moonshine Design can undertake the domain name searching for you, we have designed a system that can turn up a large variety of available domain names on your chosen topic/theme, we can then purchase one, some or all of the names for you, or you are free to purchase the names independently, the choice is yours.
High ranking in Search Engines and Internet Directories are a very important part of marketing on the Internet, if a web site is not listed in a high enough position, most surfers will be unaware that it exists. Over 80% of new web site customers come from the first three pages of results returned from the search engines.
Moonshine Design specialize in search engine optimising and submission, we understand the complexities involved in achieving a high ranking. Good placement must start with web site design, if it is incorrectly designed it will never achieve a high ranking.
Through dialogue with our clients we agree on certain keywords and phrases they want to be found with, we then visit their web site and recommend any changes required. Some sites can require a little tweaking or a makeover, while others may necessitate a complete redesign.
Moonshine Design takes guessing out of the equation.
We personally submit clients web sites to the most popular search engines, unlike some companies who use software programs to do this - certain search engines ignore web sites submitted by such programs. We will monitor the positions achieved and make any adjustment required, notifying clients by e-mail of its progress, results can take some time and may involve creating and submitting a "gateway" page numerous times i.e. a page designed to suit an individual search engines ranking criteria.
As part of our submission strategy we can increased your web sites link popularity by including reciprocal links to it from other web sites. This has now become an important part of optimising a web site for search engines, since some of them use link popularity in their ranking criteria.
The way search engines rank sites is continually changing, web sites need to be up-to-date with any changes, if they want to stay ahead of their competition.
