What makes Templar Communications different to any other Web Design agency? Good Question! The simple answer lies in our approach. As well as using the latest technologies to acheive the best results we believe in a process that our team have developed through years of experience in the IT, Web and Commercial sectors.

Unlike other Web agencies our commercial experience working for large blue chip organisations both national and global, enables us to have a unique insight into how businesses work and what makes a website successful or not. Most agencies, and to some extent customers, forget that the visitors to their site decide whether or not the site delivers, not us!

To answer the question 'What makes Templar Communications different to any other Web Design agency?' by simply saying "That's easy we're experts at what we do!", may seem egotistical or even flippant but you'd be suprised how many people think they are experts and what a difference it makes when you actually are!

Our process involves putting the visitor first. We analyse your business objectives for your site and then your target audience before moving a mouse! In order to acheive a good looking, easy to navigate and successful website it is important to undertand the way your potential visitors use the Internet and what they want from a website. Once you understand and provide for these requirements then the rest is easy.

We place a great deal of our reputation on being able to deliver and this can only be possible through a sensible process that promotes good communication with you and ensures that you understand what we are delivering and when it will be delivered, as well as what you need to do to enable this. The diagram below illustrates as typical process, at the end of each of the arrows we seek your sign off before we continue, eliminating risk and costly delays.

Web 2.0 is the term used to describe the current revolution in web design and development which put simply places the content of websites into the hands of those people or visitors who use them. Sites such as YouTube and MySpace have revolutionised the way the Web is used - giving visitors the ability to upload and share content with other Web users.

This content, like the video below, can be embedded into other websites creating 'mash-ups' offering visitors far more that the sites themselves usually offer and promoting a sense of community or 'social networking' as it has become known. These technologies and others (such as blogs and interactive maps) can greatly improve the way you retain visitors on your site - allowing them to choose how they use the site and what appears there. Web 2.0 will continue to grow and change the way people view the Web.

At Templar we see these technologies and paradigms as key to allowing our customers to benefit from the new wave of user awareness and expectation. Contact Us if you want to find out more about how we can help you take full advantage and make your Internet presence Web 2.0.
