Case Study – Biznet

When six individuals came together to create Biznet, a local business networking group, it wasn’t long before the idea of a website was born.

For such an exciting on-going project Websites by Mark were more than pleased to be invited to design, create and maintain the new system.

By mixing strong visuals and practical flexibility has meant a site has been created that not only drives traffic from search engines, but also retain and converts visitors to members.

As with any new group requirements, flexibility is often the key and the sites modular design allows for rapid and agile changes to be made within a very short timeframe.

Like all Websites by Mark sites, listing on the major search engines happened in just a few days, and with its built-in features means SEO and SERP will naturally build and expand overtime.

By using cutting edge prototyping and creation tools, the site and initial content were created within a 4 hour period once again proving that with the right web design company behind you, results can be achieved quickly and within budget without the sacrifice of quality, integrity or the need to outsource the development of any part of the site to any external agency.
