About

Your website will soon be your business' most important asset. When it comes to web design and search engine optimisation there are a lot of "experts" out there who do not do their clients any favours. In such a competetive market why would you waste valuable time and money working with someone who doesn't know how to produce results?

Taplin Web Design is owned and run by people who know the internet. We have our own successful online businesses and as such are able to apply that emperical knowledge to the creation and maintenance of your website. At Taplin Web Design we aim to give you:

• Original and Effective Designs - Your business does not just need a website. It needs a website that is carefully branded and constructed according to the needs of your customers. A good looking website is not always an effective one. Taplin Web Design will create you a website that looks and feels great and helps you to achieve your branding and fiscal goals.
• Face to Face Service - We meet with each client individually to discuss their goals and desires for their website and we like to maintain a friendly relationship right through the creation and post-creation stages.
• Long Term Follow Ups - We are not a "set and forget" style of business. We give you the care you and your website deserve such that if you require updates or changes we make ourselves easy to contact. Post-creation updates are also cheap and affordable unlike other website designers who charge hundreds of dollars an hour.
• Easy to Understand Help - Some web designers/consultants will spout a thousands different technical terms that make no sense to you at all. Our consultations are kept low key and friendly; we will explain your options clearly with diagrams and current examples. Our goal is not to impress you with how much we know, but to teach you how to apply our knowledge to your personal website.

At Taplin Web Design we believe in websites. We know how much they can add value to a business and we know how powerful they can be for building a client base. We enjoy creating websites and we enjoy learning the latest technologies to make them faster, more attractive and more popular. Most importantly, we like seeing our clients succeed.

Taplin Web Design also has some of the most influential contacts on the web. Years of owning online businesses has helped us develop friendships and alliances with the world's top network CEOs, graphic designers, search engine optimisation experts, advertising and marketing gurus, etc. The knowledge and insight gained from these relationships is passed on to you - our client.

Website Design Packages

At Taplin Web Design we offer four website design packages. On this page you will find a basic description of those packages.

• Brochure Website - It is amazing how many small businesses are losing money because their potential clients can't find them on Google ! This package is for the individual or firm that wants to create a basic online presence. Much like handing out a physical brochure to a client in a store, a brochure website is smartly designed with minimal pages and content. The idea is to communicate your product/service in a simple and effective manner. When people drive by your shop or hear about it from their friends you want them to be able to locate you easily on Google so they come and spend their money with you instead of your online competitors.


• Blog Design - At Taplin Web Design we are strong believers in the selling power of Blogs. More and more Fortune500 companies are adding blogs to their existing websites as a means of building customer loyalty and pitching new products or services. Blog design is a specialty of Taplin Web Design - we can build you a blog that ranks well on the search engines, brings new traffic to your site and enhances your firm's customer service.


• Corporate Exposure - Our most popular product, Corporate Exposure is all about creating a website for your firm that is perfectly branded, strategically layed out and optimised to your customers needs. This package is for firms who want to add an extra dimension to their marketing, sales and customer care by creating an online environment that is inviting and very easy to use. Let us help your firm make the most of the world's largest shopping centre - Google. Are you doing all you can?


• E-Commerce Solution - A fully integrated online store. This is the option for the larger business who wants to start tapping in to the massive potential that is online traffic. We build you a website centred around your online shop and optimise it for sales, brand loyalty and search engine traffic.

Taplin Web Design recognises that your business is unique. For this reason it should not be lumped in to some fixed package like many web designers do. We will meet with you personally to discuss your goals and needs and then create a package full of features that suit you. We are not happy unless you are. Let's work together to create the best possible online presence for your business

Search Engine Optimisation

Forget the Yellow Pages, the next 50 years are going to be all about Google. People are now searching for services and products on this search engine and if your business doesn't show up in the first few results you are losing money. Lots of it.

Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) is all about making your website rank in a competitive place. When someone searches for your business you want to be easy to find, not buried in page two or three. SEO is a personal passion of everyone who works at Taplin Web Design and we pride ourselves on helping our clients become easier to find on the world's biggest business directory - Google.

The world of SEO is very secretive, its methods closely guarded. However, for a site to be fully optimised for the search engines certain off-site and on-site things must be done. Optimising your website could be one of the best things you ever do for your business.

Tactical Web Consulting

Is your website not performing like it should? Are your products not selling fast enough? Are visitors not taking any action? It could be the placement of your text, the layout of your design or the message you are communicating.

What about traffic and subscribers? Your website might be perfect but without visitors it isn't going to do much good!

In order to run a successful website you must take in to account thousands of factors. You must know where the "hot spots" on your site are in order to maximise user interaction. You must know the psychology of your visitors and how to entice them to action. You must also know how to get traffic flowing. If any one of these factors is missing your website will fail.

Taplin Web Design offers a tactical web consulting service where we sit down with your website and discuss how to make it more effective, attractive and lucrative. We then help you implement those changes. Sometimes the slightest shifts in placement or colour can make a world of difference.
