Our Fastrack Service

A Fastrack website uses a pre-designed theme, with lots of options for pages, content and features. After sending us your content (including text and images) we populate the theme, plus make some style customisations to fonts and colours to tie it in with your brand. After showing you the completed website (and before launch) content edits are carried out within the confines of the theme.

Our bespoke website service is the go-to for many companies, small and large, who are looking for a website to be designed specifically for them, based on their brief. The design phase starts with a blank canvas and a bespoke website is crafted using the creativity, skill and experience of our team. We offer a complete revision process, engaging with our clients on a journey to create a website that meets their vision. For those looking for a website with certain specific features, an entirely unique look, and a comprehensive briefing, design and revision process, our bespoke service is the way to go.

The brochure-style Fastrack website includes pages, sub-pages and content options to suit a wide range of businesses. So far we have built Fastrack websites for businesses in finance, concierge services, property development, bathroom fitting, fencing, car bodywork repairs, pest control, bespoke furniture sales and more.

If you’re looking to inform viewers about your business, detail all of your services, highlight previous projects/work you’ve carried out, engage viewers with news/press/blogs, then the Fastrack website could be just the ticket. And if you’re looking to sell products online then we have an ecommerce version too.

Using WooCommerce means that the Fastrack ecommerce website is feature-rich and well suited to selling a wide range of products. With many options for product types and categorisation the theme is very adaptable. Beyond the standard features, there are a huge number of possible extensions and feature developments that are possible to further adapt the system to suit your specific requirements. We are on hand and can integrate new features at any point on a quote-per-task or hourly basis.

Please get is touch so we can find out about your business and discuss your needs. We can then advise whether a Fastrack or actually a bespoke ecommerce website would be the best way forward for you.

• First things first, get in touch with us, by phone, email or contact form, to start the conversation. We will discuss what you’re needing from your website, advise, and send you a formal quote.
• We ask for a 50% deposit for paid-up-front websites, or the first month’s fee for pay-monthly websites.
• You send us the text, images and details that we need for the website, don’t worry, we’ll guide you through exactly what to send us.
• We create your website within two weeks, sending you a private link to preview the site.
• You can request edits to the content within a one week period, which we will carry out promptly.
• Once the site is approved by you, we request balance payment for paid-up-front websites. We then perform final technical checks, and get the website live.
• We are commited to making the whole process smooth and enjoyable. We’ve been doing this a long while so we know what really matters and what makes a smoooooth project. We’ve got this.

From the point at which we receive the text, images and details required for the build, we get the website ready for you to preview within two weeks. Content edits before launch can be carried out over one week. So, within a few weeks you can get online! Of course if you’re aiming to hit a deadline sooner than this though feel free to discuss it with us as we’ll always look for ways to help.

There’s no doubt, using great images really make a difference to how a website looks and your company is presented. We can advise on whether the images that you have are suitable. Stock images (and videos) can work well and we can advise on what options are available to you.

Absolutely. We offer a copywriting service where we can help to craft the words that will get your point across. This is an additional service and based on your specific requirements, so please feel free to ask about pricing.

Throughout the build of your website we give the utmost attention to SEO, focusing on keywords that are most important to you. The website is populated with headings, image alt tags, search engine meta titles and descriptions to give it the best starting point. We set up a Google Search Console account where we submit your sitemaps and request that the site is crawled and indexed by Google after launch.

Feel free to also talk to us about ongoing off-page SEO plans where we can really help get your site climbing the rankings.

30 minutes support per month is included as part of pay-monthly Fastrack plans. This is for general phone and email support and help with minor website content amends. Time cannot be carried over into sunsequent months. Any support beyond the 30 minutes would be charged at our standard hourly rate (£70+vat), and always agreed beforehand. Website design edits or development tasks could be quoted for or worked on hourly, established on a case-by-case basis. Feel free to ask if you have any questions about what sort of tasks are included in the 30 minute support time.

Laurence is your main point of contact, so when you email or call he’s the man to talk to. He guides you through every step of the process and is on call now and in the future for support with your website. Lucy and Geoff are our website designers, and no doubt you’ll get to know them too.

What really sets Good Design Works apart is we are a small team of three, and we are all directors. All of the work is carried out in-house, by us… we don’t use juniors, we don’t sub-contract. This means the work and support you get from us is top notch.
