We utilise the best in open source technology to offer website development tailored to your business. Our experienced team in Chelmsford, have worked on countless e-commerce sites, blogs, and other business sites to take them to that fabled ‘next level’. We recognise that every site is different, so in addition to offering installation of shopping cart software, or CMS applications, we also offer custom development catering to your business.

Open Source Technology

The majority of our work is made using osCommerce, Zencart and WordPress, all as part of our commitment to open source, and to you and your business.
Using open source technology means:

• A lower cost to you - you don’t pay for the site, you pay for the work we do on it
• You own your site - once your site is made and the work is paid for, it’s yours, to do with as you please. You are not tied in with contracts or license fees
• You can benefit from constantly evolving technology - open source rarely sleeps, and updates are being made all the time. We make sure you have the latest stable version, and can install updates for you if you wish
• You benefit from an active and creative community - all of the software we use has a large library of plugins and additional features developed and extensively tested by the community
• A flexible platform - we can make any changes we like! No one piece of software suits everyone’s needs, but we can modify an open source application to fit your requirements exactly

Installing plugins and contributions

Not sure how to install plugins or mods on your site? Let us do it for you! Some site plugins and community contributions can be difficult to install, but we have already made updates to sites using the most popular mods. We know the risks involved with the more challenging ones, and we have processes in place to deal with these. Or maybe you are unsure what is out there, and what is appropriate for your site. Use the contact area to the right to get advice from our experts.

For more information on WordPress, adding osCommerce contributions or installing Zencart contributions, please see the relevant pages.

Bespoke development catered to your needs

Although we often start with existing applications, every website has different requirements. Even an array of plugins is sometimes not enough. So, we offer bespoke website development. As you can see from our sister site, wpxpand.com, we often make custom WordPress plugins or custom osCommerce contributions. If your site has specific development needs, talk to us using the chat facility, or contact form to the right. Also, see our price list for details of our hourly rate and other options.
