Consultation and Planning

Full guidance is on hand to help develop the web site that best suits your needs. From complex designs to simple functional web sites, close consultation ensures the right site design for your requirements.

Artwork, Graphics, Interface and Logo Design

Original artwork can be created in a wide range of styles. Everything from full feature artwork, to logos, graphical user interfaces and icons. Custom graphics and hand-painted artwork (developed in Corel Painter and Photoshop) are a particular Runic speciality.

Page Authoring and Web Programming

A range of web technologies is employed, as appropriate for your project, including HTML, Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), PHP and CGI Scripting. Special care is taken to ensure designs are fully compatible with contemporary versions of all major web browsers and are backwards compatible as much as is feasibly possible. Because sites are developed to accepted web standards and utilize technologies such as CSS, your web site will be as future proof as it is possible to make it and will be easy to maintain and upgrade.

Photography

If you require any photography for your Web site, this is another area in which Runic specializes. From creative and illustrative photography, through product photos to event and location shoots, all photographic assignments are handled using professional equipment (Canon DSLR) and industry standard software such as Photoshop.

Conversion of Existing Artwork

If you already have existing artwork, logos, images and photos that you wish to use on your web site, these can be converted into a suitable format for the Web, using image enhancement and optimization techniques where necessary.

E-Commerce and Database Integration

Many sites require E-Commerce or database-driven solutions for features such as online shopping, interactive and dynamic content and care will be taken to select the best solution for your site. In some cases this will be an 'off the shelf' solution, in other cases a custom solution may be required. Either way, the most appropriate solution will be seamlessly integrated with your web site.

Search Engine Optimization

A proven track record in getting top rankings on search engines such as Google means that many sites designed by Runic rank on the first page of Google for relevant key words and phrases (many even as high as #1). No tricks or cheats are employed to achieve this, just solid design techniques and plenty of experience. It is not possible to guarantee to get every site to the top of Google as there are so many factors that influence this, but you can be sure that your site will achieve the best ranking it possibly can.

Multimedia

If your site requires multimedia content such as podcasts, animation, video etc then we can ensure these are in an appropriate format and fully integrated with your web site.

Support

Once your site is finished you aren't left holding the baby. Runic will continue to support your site for as long as you need. Sites are designed with ease of maintenance in mind, so that you should find it easy to carry out updates and minor changes yourself. But everyone has different needs in this regard and support packages can be arranged to suit if you'd like assistance with updates.
