Hi everyone

Just a quick one to let you all know that I (Kelly) will have reduced availability over this week and next.

Firstly this week. We’ve been waiting for 2 years, but finally our new house is built and ready for us to move in! Hooray. We will be moving over the course of Thursday and Friday so I will have very limited ability to reply to emails during that time.

Then next Wednesday I will be going into day hospital for some fun in the dentist’s chair. Teeth coming out and teeth going in means I will definitely be out of action on Wednesday and Thursday … but hopefully at least able to answer emails on Friday!

So during these periods, if there are any matters of urgency, please email rory@swishdesign.com.au or call the office on 9467 2903. Regular programming will resume the week after!

March and April were busy months for Swish Design with several website launches. We wish we could tell you about all of them, but for the sake of brevity and readability, we are keeping the list to three! Read the rest of this entry »

It is probably the most consistent piece of feedback we get from our clients:

“You guys make things so easy”

We like to think that we are no fuss designers! You give us a brief and we get the job done, quickly and efficiently and at a high standard. Most of our clients are small to medium enterprises. You don’t have the time or budget for market research and pitching of concepts. You simply need the job done - quickly and at a high standard! Read the rest of this entry »

I agree - it’s pretty slack that there have been no blog posts since November 2009! But I have my excuses - we have just been really, really busy! We signed off on a large number of projects in December which kept Rory and I very busy in January while Adrian was away in Japan. February came and with it even more new projects (on top of the regular, quick turnaround stuff) and all of the sudden - it’s March and I am wondering where on earth the year has gone!

It’s one of the number one requests we get when quoting a website for a new client - “I want to be able to modify it myself”.

Unless you’re confident coding html or using a program like Dreamweaver, the only thing that will enable you to modify your own website is if it is built on a Content Management System (CMS) platform. Up till now - the CMS solutions we had access to would add at least $3500-4000 to the price of a website . This meant that for most of our clients, it wasn’t viable to have their website built this way. Read the rest of this entry »
