Make-over needed for growing company

Websites have a relatively short shelf life. Websites are continually evolving, both in terms of techniques and features but also in style, with older websites soon talking on a dated look.

Just a few years ago websites were created to fit the most popular screen sizes and settings, usually 800 pixels wide, although some sites took advantage of the newer screen settings of just over 1000 pixels.

Some even had a 'fit-all' style that stretched the website content to fit the screen size, irrespective of the screen's settings. Whilst satisfying the wish to fill the screen with content, it had the big disadvantage of loosing its structure, with text moving in a disproportional way to the images placed initially to accompany the text. Above all, websites created in the contemporary style of three of four years ago, now look as out of place as a vinyl record.

Increasingly, clients who had websites created to fit the older formats, or who want features and techniques that were not available at the time of creating their website, now return to have a make-over, completing changing the style of their site and bringing it up-to-date with the latest styles and 'fashions'.

A long standing client of NSA is the director of a company in the south of France who initially started by manufacturing bespoke circular and arch pvc windows. NSA created the company's first website, publishing this to meet the norms at the time. Now the company had moved on - it has grown enormously both in size and the range of products offered. In addition the company now find most of their business working with large building companies on large projects, rather than individual builders.

It was for these reasons that the director of the company, OCintrage-pvc, requested a major change to the website. A specification was given, an important feature of which was that the website should reflect the new direction of the company.

The new website has just been uploaded (visit and view here www.ocintrage-pvc.com) and the client has expressed his appreciation for both the delivery and the style / content of the website - "...exceeded my expectations", he said.
