Sifting through the thousands of available website providers around Melbourne and Australia is a daunting task. Hopefully we can save you the effort ... after building hundreds of websites, and learning all the tough lessons, we’ve built a certain amount of expertise around effective website development, and implement that into every project.

Professional Website Design

In many ways, the internet is no different than your local strip of shops.  Your clients will form an impression fast, based on your site being clean, attractive, easy to get around, and professional. Design will be one of the most important aspects of your new site.

Content Management System (CMS)

Firstly, what the hell is a CMS? It's just a fancy term for the ability to edit the content of a website without requiring extensive technical skills; so just about anyone can do it.  We specialise in a CMS called Joomla, which is easy to use, widely accepted, and incredibly powerful.  We build every website using a CMS, and provide training and ongoing support for every job so our clients all have the power to update themselves.

Selling Stuff On Your Website

We use a different CMS for our eCommerce websites called OSCommerce. If you have products to sell online, you need to consider things like loading your product information, photography, getting your shipping and payment options right, and importantly, accepting credit card payments online. It doesn't have to be hard work, and we've done it all before, so can make the process easy.

The Basics of Building a Web Site

• Editing the website yourself - Every website Salsa builds has a built in CMS
• Search Engine Friendly - Google likes websites built a certain way; we are experts at it
• Attract clients - Websites must be aesthetically very pleasing, to entice clients to stay on your site, and also guide them to an action, encouraging an enquiry, phone call or sale
• Help! Once the website is built, we need to be there to support you when you need it
• Suit your style - Importantly, your website needs to match your branding and business requirements
  
• Meet your needs - Most businesses have specific requirements for their website; whether they need to integrate with a pre-existing database, sell products online, or simply just get people to pick up the phone and make an enquiry. Salsa management are not only experts in web development and online marketing, but are highly skilled in understanding business requirements, and can help marry them to your website construction by implementing a strategic plan
