It’s no secret that we’re not the only web design company with great creativity, and nor do we pretend to be. However, we are the only ones with our unique approach to Web Design, Web Development, and Search Engine Optimisation. Not to mention the strong and long-lasting partnerships we hold with our clients.
…and when we say partnership, we mean it. Your business, and especially your website, isn’t just 9 – 5, and neither are we. We’ll call and come visit you at a time that suits you. Or, if you’d prefer you can nip down to the office and we can have a good ol’ chin-wag about anything and everything digital.
1.
Info Gathering & Planning
We have an initial chat about the web project, and develop a unique website plan. The plan includes website and competitor analysis, design research, and inspiration building.
2.
Design & Development
We begin piecing together and developing the website sitemap, design assets, web pages, and content optimised for Google search results. as well as collecting your thoughts and feedback.
3.
Testing & Launch
Thorough testing on all modern browsers and devices, including fixes to any bugs or glitches. Train you on how to use the website, if required. Configure hosting, security, and hit launch!
Nope, we fully train you, or your staff, on how to use your website’s WordPress Content Management System (CMS)! Your CMS allows you to change and adapt your website’s content, photography, and other design aspects of the website quickly.
We also use a series of plugins to layout your website content in a friendly and easy-to-use way, almost like a simple version of Microsoft Word, making things way less complicated. (AKA no coding knowledge required!)
It’s always difficult to give a specific answer without knowing the brief in-depth, as it can depend on the website’s complexity and the functionality required.
A fairly simple website could take 7-10 days, whereas a more complex eCommerce website with 1000’s of products could take longer.
Once we have your website brief, we come back to you with a timescale for the project that fits around your requirements and position – meaning you can put your feet up and have a brew while we take care of it all!
This can totally vary depending on the complexity, functionality, and timescale of the website project. Athena Media aims to cater to all client bases and is always competitive in price, offering a monthly website subscription service too.

Yes, totally, and 100%. Once your website or design work has been signed off by yourself the website, content, and graphics ownership will all be handed over to you.
Please note: This doesn’t include any of the open-source WordPress CMS, Plugins, or Stock Photography used to create your website, as they’re owned by third parties but with free-to-use licenses, but the actual design and content will be 100% yours.

All of the work carried out for our clients is done by ourselves. We do sometimes use UK-based self-employed contractors with specialist skills that are required for certain advanced projects. However, we’ll always let you know who they are and why we recommend them.
Athena Media will always avoid where possible the use of overseas contractors due to overseas companies not always being able to comply with the Modern Slavery Act 2015.

We’re extremely proud of the reviews and partnerships we’ve built with our clients over the years. Here’s what a few of them have to say about working with us…
Ben has done a great job of understanding our needs and updating our websites. He has great enthusiasm, his communication skills are first class – explaining at our level how we should go forward, this makes it so easy to work with him.
Ben has done a great job in bringing to life a series of unspecific ideas and translating them into a website for the club, he has involved the club committee at each stage of development and has taken on board feedback to develop a site into something the club is delighted to promote as its shop window.
I needed to refresh our company website as it was dated. After getting quotes, Ben came back with a competitive price and what he proposed was exactly what we were after. The whole process was completed quickly and nothing was too much trouble. We have ended up with exactly what we wanted – would highly recommend.
Ben was brilliant – had to be patient with me as I have zero technical skills and was great throughout. Would definitely recommend him to others.
Ben at Athena listened to what I wanted from a website and delivered it so much faster than I expected. I am so pleased with how it looks and how it works. And as I’ve started using my site I’ve found I can ask Ben to make tweaks to it which he responds to so quickly. Nothing is too much trouble for him. I look forward to growing and developing my site and business with Ben. Thank you so much.
We had our new website designed by Ben, he did a great job from start to finish. Reflected our marketing ideas, help and guide through the process, communication was superb and we are super happy with the final results. I can 100% recommend Athena Media and Ben for your new website or re design.
Ben provided us with excellent service in improving our company website. I would strongly recommend Ben for his professionalism, quick response to customer’s request and excellent customer service.
I contacted Ben as I was in need of a new Photography website for my branding and he didn’t disappoint! Wow from beginning to end he listened to what I wanted regards style, design add ons to help it work for my industry and just a cracking chap to work with.
I would 100% recommend using Ben, I’m very happy with the outcome and I enjoyed the process of setting up the website.
Ben really was amazing! Done everything I asked and more. My websit looks brilliant, couldn’t be happier!
