Chessington Chat - KT9's Independant Community Magazine and Business Directory

Already a successful local magazine, Chessington Chat distributes to over 8,300 homes across the borough of Kingston Upon Thames, however did not have the added benefit of a website to enhance its popularity and coverage.

Working alongside the client, we were able to produce a vibrant and engaging platform for readers and advertisers alike with the incorporation of Yudu's online publishing service. This enhances the site with easily accessible, professional and up to date copies of Chessington Chat's publications.

Here's what Sally Hawkins from Chessington Chat had to say:

"Having no prior web experience ourselves we would like to thank Paramount Website Design for the amazing job they have made of our site and for creating exactly what we asked for. Whether you have a specific design in mind, or like us need some direction Paramount are able to advise.

Throughout the entire process nothing has been too much trouble and it is great to know that any additional services or support that we may need in the future can all be offered by their team"

Bite Size - creating a bespoke e-learning solution

Bite Size delivers a high quality e-learning service to its clients, offering small and large companies as well as individuals direct access to hundreds of lessons and courses in Microsoft applications, delivered in a fast and easy to understand way through a sophisticated training website.

The website's main content, the lessons, is a subscription-only service and required us to develop a bespoke interface where companies are able to subscribe for any number of employees from 5 to 50,000+.

Here is what Bite Size had to say:

"As we write and design our own content, we needed a solution that we could manage easily and update the site whenever we needed to. We also wanted the site to be self managing to save time on admin tasksClive and his team are extremely knowledgeable and supportive to our ever changing needs and took time to understand our business which is constantly evolving"

At the time of writing, Peter Ainsworth is the local MP for East Surrey and decided a new website with a better, clearer style to convey the message of his work and commitment to his constituency was a good business decision.

The style of website we produced is crisp, and modern, crossing all boundaries in terms of ease of use and clear, accessible information.

Developed to integrate our web-based Content Management System, Peter's office staff regularly update the website with news, current affairs and reports on Peter's work and involvement in the community.

"A good website has become an essential way in which MPs can communicate with their constituents.

Caterham-based recruitment consultants, Recruitment Solutions were in need of a website to deliver a number of factors; they needed to portray their approachable business image and they needed to deliver up-to-date job details for both clients and candidates.

The colour scheme was taken from their existing logo, which enabled us to deliver an eye catching, clean and professional design, which they loved.

We provided onsite training plus additional email and telephone support as required as they got used to using the Content Management System and online job database.

Here is what Recruitment Solutions had to say:

"As a company, we had very specific ideas as to what we wanted from our website and Clive and his team delivered this to and above our expectations.

The first prototype website that they produced gave us a clear picture that we had chosen the right people for the job and, as it took shape, we very quickly became aware that they had not only understood our spec but made it better than we could have imagined!

Their professionalism and dedication was clear throughout and the service that we received from them was excellent. They were always there to sort out any queries or problems that we had and took the time and patience to explain everything in plain English, so that we were able to understand.

The administration of the site is very easy to use and we know if we do have any problems that they will only be too happy to help, which gives us enormous peace of mind. We are now able to change wording and pictures whenever we like, which we have never had the freedom to do before and means that we can keep our site up to date without having to rely upon someone else.

We think our website portrays the corporate and personal image that we wanted and the response to it from our clients and applicants has been excellent.

Thank you Paramount Website Design, we would recommend you in a heartbeat!"

Bramley School is an independent day school for girls in Tadworth, Surrey.

Like a lot of schools, Bramley has a requirement to provide a lot of information on the school activities and events, needing to keep the school policies up to date and the parents informed.

Our Content Management System has been an ideal solution for them to keep their website content up to date across all areas of the website - including the weekly school dinner menu!

Wishing to convey a strong message of the fun-but-serious environment at Bramley School, we commissioned Kate Bellinger to photograph the children in their everyday activities. Her photography is superb and sets the tone perfectly for the school and the website.

"Without a doubt what stood out for us was the effort Clive had put into researching our company before our first meeting. He came to us armed with knowledge about our business and our market, which proved to us Paramount's passion and dedication for their work.

Throughout the build of our eCommerce website their communication and helpfulness was excellent and when we didn't understand the technical bits they always took time to explain in simple terms, no computer jargon :-)

Our website has now been live for more than 4 years and has certainly paid for itself time and time again. Apart from the small amount of admin time, the system runs itself leaving us to concentrate on other areas of our business, it even makes us money while we sleep.

If you're looking for a website designer it's paramount you use Paramount Website Design. We did and haven't looked back."
