An experienced web development agency based in Leeds
A powerful website relies on a strong build. Fishtank elevates your online presence for an innovative digital experience.
Unique websites that enhance experiences.
Full-Stack Development
Our development team builds complete web applications, expertly handling both the front-end (user interface and user experience) and the back-end (server-side logic, databases, and APIs). This comprehensive approach ensures seamless communication between all parts of the application, resulting in secure, scalable, and feature-rich solutions tailored precisely to your business needs, utilising modern technologies and frameworks.
Content Management Systems (CMS)
We leverage a variety of powerful Content Management Systems (CMS), including WordPress, headless and other enterprise platforms, to deliver tailored web solutions. Our focus is on building highly dynamic websites that are not only visually appealing but also incredibly easy for your team to manage and update content, empowering you with full control over your digital presence.
E-commerce
At Fishtank, we develop and manage robust online stores that drive sales and enhance the customer journey. As Shopify Partners and experts in WooCommerce, our comprehensive e-commerce solutions cover everything from designing engaging storefronts and implementing secure payment processing to efficiently managing product catalogues.
Performance Audits & Optimisation
Our focus is on ensuring your website performs brilliantly. Fishtank’s performance audits thoroughly examine your site’s technology and structure, identifying any issues that slow it down or affect its stability. We then implement expert optimisation strategies, like image compression and code improvements, to significantly boost loading speeds, enhance user experience, and improve your search engine visibility.
Hosting & Cloud Solutions
We provide comprehensive hosting and cloud solutions to ensure your website’s reliability, scalability, and security. Our managed services offer rapid loading times through advanced caching and optimised infrastructure, ensuring exceptional performance. Our solutions are designed for effortless scaling, allowing resources to be adjusted precisely to your needs, ensuring your web presence remains robust and responsive, even during peak traffic.
Website Maintenance
Our website maintenance service offers ongoing support to keep your digital assets secure, up-to-date, and performing optimally. This includes regular software and security updates, proactive monitoring, backups, and general technical support, allowing you to focus on your core business while we ensure your website runs smoothly.
A Seamless Process
Understanding your business to craft a bespoke website
At this stage of your website journey, we meet with your team to understand your goals and needs, as well as any technical requirements you may have. We also undertake competitor research to identify standards and opportunities to stand out. Once this is done, we create a sitemap of key pages and technical specifications, defining how users will navigate through your site.
Bringing your innovative ideas to life on screen
Once the sitemap is agreed, we dive further into design concepts with our team of creatives. We work hard to ensure the design will be responsive and adapt to all screen sizes. Once this is approved by the client, we begin development, bringing the design and unique functionalities to life. Content can also begin to be populated at this stage.
Perfecting every unique feature of your new website
Once we have your new site looking pretty, we perform functional testing to ensure all features are working correctly. From cross-browser and device testing to accessibility and SEO checks, no stone is left unturned, meaning your website is guaranteed to be at peak performance. After this, we set up a staging site which allows clients to view the site in all its glory before it goes live, giving them the chance to suggest revisions and make any content updates.
Getting your shiny new look out to the digital world
After many, many in-depth checks of your website, we move on to launch. We work on your domain set-up before deploying the site to the live server, after which your gorgeous new platform will be live on the web! From here, we complete post-launch checks to ensure everything is functioning as it should and there aren’t any bugs or performance issues. We offer maintenance packages after the launch of all our websites, which allow you to sit back and focus on what’s important for your business.
We always feel like we’re part of the family at Fishtank. This is down to their friendly and enthusiastic approach throughout. They communicate well along every stage. Whether it’s initial requirements, changes to design or requesting very specific functionality, they do not shy away and will offer solutions.
