This is not a complete list of clients, some of the work we do is confidential and we're not at liberty to disclose our involvement. However as you can see from this sample of clients we're involved in a wide range of industries and market sectors.
| We recently had the pleasure of working with A Recipe For Success for the first time on a project for English Heritage. The project is still under active development and we're not at liberty to talk about the specifics of it but we developed templates for their content management system that could be utilised for the presentation of content on mobile devices as well as normal web sites. We look forward to extending the relationship in 2010. |

Alpine Oasis are a travel and adventure company based in Cambridge that offer tours and accommodation in the Alpine region. We were initially contracted to design and develop their web site in April 2009 which runs on our specifically crafted content management system. Their business has proved to be so successful that we are currently re-designing and extending their web site (via our CMS system again) to reflect the additional courses they now offer in time for a relaunch in the 2010.
Working closely with them has allowed us to refine our working practices for small businesses and provide professional development services on a par with much larger organisations.

We have worked with Cambridge Professional Academy in one form or another since they were founded in 2001 and have developed all of their software systems. The core of the system is a desktop based client that manages student information and enrolments on a central server application. In turn this is used to power their web site as well as automatically interfacing with a number of corporate partners (e.g. British Telecom, AXA, Vodafone).
Their system was cutting edge when it was first developed and we are now re-developing their web site for launch in 2010 to take advantage of the latest web trends and communication technologies.

We took this job on partly as a favour and partly to experiment with Google Apps as a solution for small businesses. We were able to design and develop a web site with speed and efficiency. At the same time we were able to embed calendars and forms (that back ended onto Google Docs) to display and capture data.
The embedded Google branding may not be suitable for larger businesses, but for businesses operating on a budget then Google Apps is a compelling proposition.

Eyestorm is a dealer and publisher of contemporary art and is based in London's Mayfair district. We were initially brought in to manage their Apache/PHP web site and to provide a quicker turn around time for changes to it. They had been using a number of third party software development companies who had been charging a lot and delivering little. Due to the number of developers and their inability to follow sensible coding practices the code for the website was somewhat of a mess. We have streamlined the code making it easier to manage and modify (and thus less expensive to change) and in addition their hosting costs to a fraction of what they were.
Having successfully brought the web site back under control we are now working with them on various projects aimed at revolutionising the Art Industry.

| Fulchers of Cambridge is a family run removal business who were looking to improve their web site from the default one that had been supplied by their hosting company. We identified their main offerings and redesigned the web site to reflect that, and engaged in some simple SEO. The net result has been an increase in traffic and an upswing in bookings which for a home removal company in the recent economic conditions is a rarity. We will be extending the web site to provide an ecommerce facility so that they can start selling packing materials in the near future. |

We then worked closely with Hayley to take her own designs and develop a new CMS using ASP.NET and XML configuration files to make the web application easily portable and not reliant on a back end database. Wedding photography is a highly competitive industry so we have been providing SEO advice to Hayley to give her an edge. |
