Website Development

At Panoramic Imaging we have been involved in website development since 1997.

Most of our work has been travel company related, mainly due to several members of the company being involved in the travel industry before working here at Panoramic Imaging. So we understand Travel, and we understand the Internet.

We can offer a range of services:

New Projects

We really enjoy getting involved with new projects, meeting with you, we'll listen to what's required and offer sensible options and solutions. We prefer to build solutions from the ground up that match your requirements rather than offer a standard solution that is then 'customised'. From experience this approach avoids compromise further down the line. We like to develop in a 'phased' manner, get the foundation right, then start adding functionality. This allows sensible testing and feedback to shape the project.

Site Updates

We're often asked to redevelop current sites, to add functionality or integrate with a backoffice system. This requires a careful approach and some honesty regarding what can be done, whatever we think, we'll tell you..!

Content Management Systems (CMS)

This is one of our major strengths. Once we understand your aims, we can create a CMS that passes management of the site to you. Such a system can be hugely powerful and make previously onerous tasks straightforward. Often these systems will be built to complement the capabilities of your backoffice system, adding capabilities required by a Website.

Backoffice Integration / Travel Reservations Systems

We are good at this... We've got a proven capability to build websites and Content Management Systems that integrate tightly with (in particular) the Comtec Travelink reservations system. So fully transactional sites, fast availability searches, online booking and secure payments.

Hosting

We maintain our own servers for your use if required, most of the sites we manage are on our own servers, but not all, we're happy either way as long as your chosen server offers suitable support. By using our own servers sitting on the main Internet backbone we can use software and techniques at a system level just not usually available on shared servers.

Design

We have our own design capability, but are very happy to work with your own designers if preferred if this allows Company branding to be maintained. We can also recommend other designers with great track records if you're looking for alternatives.

Search Engine Optimisation (SEO)

We prefer our websites to appear in the 'left hand side' of Search Engine result pages, also called the 'natural search results'. This means that we need to build sites that perform very well in their own right, we don't want you to have to pay large sums every month to buy your way to the top of the rankings.
We do like to work with third party SEO companies, especially on new projects where Search Engine performance is critical. We'd be happy to make recommendations and demonstrate capabilities if you wish to call.

Ongoing Support

We pride ourselves in keeping clients for a long time, we still have a number of clients from the first years of operating. To do this we build sensible sites in the first place, then provide fast and excellent ongoing support. When it comes time for an update, we want to be top of the list to call.

So please call us if you have a project in mind, we'd be happy to discuss and see if we can assist.
