There’s nothing we love more than to unleash our creativity. But before we do, our mission is to get under the skin of a brand; to understand the target market; to appreciate the commercial goalposts.
Website design and build
From the simplest of brochure sites to highly functional social media or e-commerce sites, at Shout we can design and build the website that encapsulates your ideas, fulfils your aspirations and meets your business requirements. Our delivery is backed up with our ‘agile SCRUM approach’ to project delivery, an approach which ensures everything from the visual designs and technical infrastructure are seen and validated throughout the project by you.
Rich media and streaming video
Now that broadband is commonplace, the options for content delivery and interactivity have increased. Rich media and video can provide absorbing and persuasive content to grow visitor interest. From live streaming to podcasting, viral marketing to instructional video, Shout can provide you with the technical solutions to reach your audience.
Accessibility
We do not only create web design solutions for maximum impact, we also make sure they are compliant with current legislation and industry best practice. Our creative techniques ensure our online solutions adhere to W3C Accessibility Guidelines and comply with the latest Disability Discrimination Act (DDA).
We adopt the social model of disability which believes that people are disabled by the environment around them rather than any physical or intellectual limitations they may have. We are committed to delivering best practice and our goal is to ensure that everyone can enjoy the internet, whatever their personal requirements.
User experience
From the way we feel when we visit a website to how often we return, understanding who uses your site and how they use it is fundamental for getting visitors to come back for more. The overriding aim: to get them to buy in to the product or service on offer. At Shout we use a variety of creative ideas and techniques to unravel precisely who uses your site, empathise with how they use it and improve their brand loyalty and commitment through a better user experience.
No matter whether it’s designing a brand new e-commerce site, writing keyword-rich copy, incorporating video streaming or rolling out an exciting product prototype online, we know your website will only resonate with its audience if it has the perfect look and feel, with usability and functionality that’s bang-on.
But we don’t stop there. We want to nail the creative wow factor. We want to utilise ground-breaking technology. We want your website to lead the field.
Creative design
We understand the importance of brand equity. It’s the very thing which differentiates you from your competitors and gives you your unique selling proposition. At Shout our design team are well versed in all the things that make the online world work. Our extensive web design experience will ensure your website is a bespoke digital extension of your brand, while being accessible, usable and search engine friendly.
Copywriting
At Shout we recognise the need for compelling copy on the web. It’s simple really: good copy sells, by engaging, informing and converting; bad copy doesn’t. And it shouldn’t just speak to people; it should speak to the search engines as well. Keyword-rich content, clear concise English, originality of thought and a results-oriented focus: bring definition to your brand, clarity to your message and generate the results you require.
Prototyping
Sometimes brand new ideas need to be proven. At Shout we’re used to working with new technology and scribbles on the back of an envelope to produce something that can be evolved into a product for release. Whether it’s visual or functional, by prototyping things first we will get to the bottom of any idea and prove its value.
