Does your website contain the latest technology?
How usable is your website?
Is it accessible to all?
Does it display consistently in all browsers?
Does it validate to W3C standards?

To compete effectively on the internet you need to ensure your website works not just functionally but visually, ethically and strategically.
Your website needs to be accessible, usable and dependable for all visitors. It needs to conform to minimum industry standards at the very least, and it needs to degrade gracefully in older browsers.
How quickly does your site load?
How does your site look to visually impaired/colour blind viewers?
Does your site validate to W3C and WCAG/WAI standards?
Are there spelling mistakes on your website?
Are there any broken links or code errors?
Are you confident that your site displays correctly in all browsers with no display or scripting errors?

Our website review will ask and answer these and many other questions, to find out how your website currently performs. We can also identify any issues or errors that are causing problems for visitors and provide you with support and advice on how to fix these errors yourself/in-house to save money.

We will carry out several independent tests including overall look and feel test – how does your current website portray your business, load times test – how quickly does your website load on different modem speeds?

Accessibility test – does your website conform to industry standards for accessibility, and if not, why not. With 1 in 10 people having a disability of some kind, it is more important than ever that your website is accessible to all visitors.

Usability test – is your website usable to all visitors – including technically savvy and novice web users? Are your visitors reacting as you would expect on your website – are your calls to action such as buying online, contacting you or subscribing to a list actually working to bring in new and repeat business? If not, what can be changed to remedy the situation and improve responses?

Validation test – does your website conform to W3C standards for html / xhtml / css etc – if not, why not.

After this, we will look at historical log files, if available, to analyse how visitors currently use your website, and also to identify any potential errors or problems stored in the data. Following this, we will conduct testing in our state of the art test laboratory, to see how your website looks on different browsers, screen sizes and operating systems, and provide a full set of screen grabs showing your website displayed on all machines / browser configurations we have tested.

Following exhaustive tests, our analysts will write up their findings in an easy to understand review report, and provide their recommendations on any changes needed for the website. Using our mentoring service, you can develop in-house skills, making these changes yourself under the guidance of one of our team.

We rarely suggest “throwing the baby out with the bath water” type website overhauls as a result of our reviews – our aim is to help you to fine tune your website and get maximum results for minimum outlay.
