Blogging Website Design
A blogging website serves as a digital podium for individuals or organizations to share insights, stories, and expertise. It’s a space where content reigns supreme, designed to engage, inform, and sometimes entertain a dedicated readership
What Should A Website Design Agency Do?
A website design agency should serve as a comprehensive digital partner to its clients, offering a range of services that go beyond mere aesthetics to encompass the full spectrum of web development and online branding. Here’s what we do as a Northern Ireland website design agency:
Homepage Web Design
The website represents a carefully selected glimpse into the professional narrative and exemplary work of the individual or company. It needs to be crafted with a sleek simplicity that prioritises ease of use through a concise site map.
A homepage should boasts a meticulous categorisation of services and sectors of expertise, spotlights collaborations with esteemed brands, businesses, and fellow creatives, and showcases endorsements, critiques, and detailed case studies that substantiate the quality of the brand.
About Page
Websites are your chance to sell your skills and experience to the world. In today’s world, where everyone’s talking about how artificial intelligence is going to replace humans, people are hungry for real human connection. Whether you’re an agency or a sole trader, people want to put a face to the name.
Potential customers will want to know your background and what kind of person you are. It’s true that people do business with people. So, it’s crucial to have an About page to introduce yourself and the brand, use this page to include glimpses of your experience, your business values, and your vision.
Work
This is the real hero page. Its layout and design play a major role in determining whether a visitor will convert. Some of our clients have a huge portfolio of work. Therefore, we categorise their content per service or per industry. This is the safest option even if you still don’t have that much work to add because you can add to it as you go, without needing to get back to the assigned agency.
Some clients love to portray their work through a timeline with relevant career milestones. There are endless ways to tell people about your journey. The most important part that goes behind the scenes is selecting the work you want to showcase on that page.
Whether you decide to have a blog, testimonials, or any other additional page, your work should be the hero across all the pages, ensure that you utilise content, tone of voice, videos, user experience, design, and technical features to put the spotlight on your work.
Contact us page
Your website is a major part of your sales funnel. Website visitors who want to engage with your business will look for a responsive Contact Form. It is a must-have to increase your chances of new businesses and projects and ensure a clear call to action.
Testimonials
Testimonials are your way to build credibility with your audience. Pairing creativity with great customer service is the perfect equation every client aims for. Unfortunately, one rarely sees these two together. Therefore, putting the feedback of your customers on your work, process, commitment, and customer service delivery is a huge perk that many portfolio websites miss out on.
Blog
A blog is a plus if you intend to attract not only clients but also build a community around your expertise and monetise your website. Use blogs to drive traffic to your website, create engagement and ultimately become the hook that will introduce new visitors to your brand.
Visuals
We know that content is king, but the most engaging content is visual so that’s why it’s safe to say that for a successful website, visuals are king!
For any website, design plays a major role in telling the story of the brand, it’s a part of your selling pitch. Your goal is to wow the audience and convince them that you’re the right mind for their project. So, your work should be visualised and laid out to impress. We can help you create powerful photography, engaging videos, and a compelling UI/UX to ensure visual flow.
Add Personality
Spend time creating your own web design stamp. Before briefing the web agency, spend time creating your brand persona and voice. Dedicate time to understanding your audience and what makes them impressed. Keep checking competitor websites within and outside of your industry. Check as many websites as possible. Observe what you like and dislike. Take notes of all the ideas you like, then start crossing out those that don’t relate to your brand. Create a list of references. Share and discuss them with the agency while briefing them.
Without powerful photography, videos, and a compelling UI/UX, your visitors wouldn’t buy your skillset – and the ‘portfolio website’ would lose its purpose. That’s why an agency with an experience in web design and video production makes perfect sense for building a portfolio website.
