Wednesday, August 4th, 2010

We’re having a bit of a web promotion here at First Impression. August is sometimes a quiet month but that is often good for reflection in a business. Asking yourself what are you doing right, what are we doing wrong? And we find that many companies want to improve their website but lack the time to do it. Well now is a good time! In August we are offering all new websites two year’s free hosting which can give you considerable cost savings. We’ll also make sure you get an effective website that will work for your business.

Take a look at some of our award-winning websites http://www.firstimpression.co.uk/web-design-portfolio.php

First Impression has a homepage re-design

Wednesday, October 21st, 2009

If you hadn’t noticed we have launched a new homepage on our site today. After conducting some research using Google Analytics we discovered our homepage wasn’t being utilised to it’s full potential. We decided to totally strip down the old homepage of any clutter in favor of a more simplistic approach.

The re-designed homepage features a JQuery content slider which allows people to read about our core services all from the homepage and then click through to a more detailed service page. We have also added links to some of the social networking sites of which we belong to including Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook
