Custom website design
Traditionally custom web designs start from scratch with a blank sheet. The design team and client specify the website requirements and the programmers and graphic artists create the site usually iterating through a series of mock up stages. No templates, no pre-packaged graphics. Extensive experience in fine art and graphics arts and the use of creative ideas can enhance the websites presence and create a unique experience. This is often seen as the opposite of working with a set of pre-design templates from a repository and only customizing logos, changing a background, and moving a few links around. In reality the difference in the results created by the two approaches is often small and hinges greatly on the quality and scale of customisation that is available within the templated site. However at some point the templated systems must reach a limitation - this is when custom design comes into play at Business Link Systems.
Whilst we appreciate that there are a great many styling options available for you to build your own website we understand that there are a great many businesses who for various reasons do not want to take part in a DIY exercise; some simply cannot afford time away from their core business, for many it is for the plain and simple reason that they would like to “speak to a real person”. We are able to talk through individual or company website requirements, give advice on the options available and tailor a bespoke solution no matter what the challenge.
By building onto the existing content management system it is possible to leverage cost savings compared to the blank sheet approach. Whilst there are limitations to this approach in practise they are minimal and do not impact on the look or feel of the website while offering speed and efficiency savings. Effectively the custom website builds on the existing content management system (CMS) which does most of the 'heavy lifting' by creating the site infrastructure. The 'custom' design extends or overrides limitations of the CMS allowing greater freedom of expression for less programming time.
