Jon Riley (Development Office) - Holy Island Development Trust

We asked CHWD to design a corporate image for a project with a diverse range of stakeholders and opinions, together with a modern, functional website that could grow as our project evolved.

The staff at CHWD coped with endless reviews and revisions, offering sound guidance and clear advice, so that we produced a strong design supported by easy to use functionality. A pleasure to recommend them.

John Price - The Village Inn, Northallerton

"We worked with Colin Harris Website Development from before we opened 12 months ago to develop an eyecatching yet functional website. The bookings and good feedback we have got has been great for us and here's to the next 12 months."

Digital Marketing Executive - Roman at Home

"The professional and on hand service we received from Colin Harris Web Development and his team is unlike any other we’ve worked with. We hired them to structurally rebuild our website from the ground up, tailoring to our needs and product catalogue, while seamlessly working alongside our in-house marketing and design team. They never faulted helping us re-launch our established ecommerce website, through tight deadlines, complicated tailored systems and often when specifications were changed at short notice. We’ve seen a significant increase in traffic, and most importantly conversion rates through to checkout.

With Colin we benefited from the expertise and dedication of a large Web Development Company, with the quality of service from a local North East Design Agency. "

He set up software so I could the have my website built easily and the company is always on hand to help and offer advice. A professional service from start to finish!"...

Owner - Oliver Bainbridge

"We approached Colin Harris and his team with a successful website already working well for us but with limitations which were holding back our business from expanding. We had put together a working brief with our requirements around search engine optimisation and an e commerce system which would allow us to both expand our business and monitor which products were doing well and which ones needed extra work.

Our meetings with Colin were very productive as he could understand what we wanted to achieve and bring his vast experience into the conversations. Colin suggested solutions which we would have never thought of and really contributed strongly to the final website plan.

We are extremely pleased that we chose Colin and the team to partner with and would highly recommend them. They have built a fantastic website which has performed very strongly in the search engine rankings and is so easy for us to administer through their bespoke content management system.

If you need an e commerce website that both looks very good and performs strongly on Google then Colin should be your first phone call!"
