What can Alpha Web do for you?

Modern Web Design

Alpha Web utilises the latest web technologies to allow for fluid and seamless transitions between every aspect of your website, drawing focus to your key selling points.

Responsive Development

You access the Internet from more than just your computer. Websites made by Alpha Web are optimised for viewing on all modern devices, ensuring they render aesthetically on every platform.

Clean Code

Bad code can lead to slow page loads, distorted rendering and even security vulnerabilities. All Alpha Web code passes through validators and review processes before the public sees it.

Ongoing Support

We don't just stop once your website is up and running! Alpha Web will train you in how to use your new website, provide you with analytics, set up E-mail marketing, and get you seen on Google.

Modern Web Design

Bringing the future of web design to your website.

Modern Languages

Web development has exploded in recent years, and there are now almost as many Javascript frameworks as there are words in the dictionary. Should you go with Angular, React, or Vue? How about Backbone, Ember, or Next? Alpha Web makes sure to pick the right framework for the job at hand, whilst also transpiling to ES5 to ensure compatability with older browsers. Having previously worked with numerous programming languages, Alpha Web will combine the perfect suite of them to suit your needs.

Hero Images

At the cutting edge of web design are hero images - the large banners on top of many modern webpages. The perfect place to advertise your USP, the hero banner is usually the first thing seen on a website. Want to advertise your products effectively? Hero images built by Alpha Web can even contain sliders or videos to showcase an infinite number of products and services, putting them front-and-center in your visitors' minds.

Impactive Designs

Alpha Web can either create unique designs for you or implement your own custom designs. Alpha Web works with a number of designers, and has previously implemented designs from companies such as Aurora Arcade and agencies such as Kameleon (the 2015 award winner for content marketing agency of the year).

Responsive Development

Ensuring that your website looks great on any device.

Style Sheets

Chances are, you're reading this on a mobile. As of March 2018, mobile phones became the primary device used to view websites. That's why Alpha Web not only caters to desktops, but also to mobiles, tablets, and everything in between! Alpha Web codes in W3C-compliant CSS 3, with structured and indexed CSS files, and makes use of preprocessers like SASS and LESS to aid in rapid development.

Frameworks

Every website is unique, though most tend to fall into a set of similar layouts. Frameworks exist to aid in development of these layouts, and Alpha Web will select the most appropriate framework for your desired look. We'll guide you through the process of dividing your website up into sections, and explain how these sections display on different devices.

Custom Breakpoints

Even with the plethora of existing frameworks, sometimes a framework just won't cut it. Your design is what sells your product, and we'll fine-tweak your website to ensure that it's matched perfectly. In addition to utilising modern frameworks, we add our own custom media query breakpoints to ensure crisp display on any device.

Coding

Clean, consistent, and fast code that you can rely on to hold your website together.

Validity

A surpising number of companies don't bother to validate their code. This leads to slow page loads and suboptimal displays, and can even lead to security vulnerabilities! Alpha Web ensures that every single piece of code we write validates correctly, utilising services such as CSSLint, JSLint, PHP Code Checker and W3C.

Security

It's estimated that 30,000 websites get hacked each day. Here at Alpha Web, we get our sister company, Alpha Safe, to run a plethora of simulated attacks against our websites (under controlled conditions) to ensure that the security is airtight. In addition to this, Alpha Safe guards against the top 10 OWASP security vulnerabilities and adds DDoS mitigation techniques to all our websites.

Speed

The average person will leave a website if it takes longer than 3 seconds to load. Alpha Web implements techniques such as minification of assets and cache control headers to ensure that our websites load as quickly as possible. We both defer our JavaScript and load it asynchronously, ensuring that customer attention is retained.

Support

Ensuring that you understand how your new website functions.

How-To-Use Training

Not only will we get your site up and running for you, we'll also show you how you can make changes to your website yourself. Depending on the complexity of your project, we'll even build you a tailor-made administration portal -- meaning you won't have to even *touch* the code!

Analytics And Marketing

Track your visitors' interactions with your website to a frightening extent with Alpha Web's suite of analytics tools. Discover not only where and when people visit your website, but also *how*. Learn about your visitors' devices, where they're coming from and where they're going. You can even go the full mile and play back live videos of visitor interactions, then utilise this knowledge to make key marketing decisions.

Hosting & Domain Renewal

Websites take up digital space on the Internet, and this space costs. Alpha Web will not only find the perfect host to house your website, but will also handle the setup process so you don't have to. We'll even cover the annual renewal process for both your hosting and URL, reminding you ahead of time of when either is due to expire. We can even set these renewals to clock over automatically, meaning you'll never have to worry about potentially losing your perfect domain.
