Website Development
DIS specializes in producing simple, user friendly websites that meet the client's on-line needs and their budget. We have been involved in producing small, medium and large websites that range from a simple 5 page site for a guesthouse to a 5000 page travel and tourism website with dynamic content and e-commence solutions. We specialize in creating dynamic database driven websites that are updatable from a secure user interface. This approach allows our client to keep their website content up-to-date and fresh.
Our focus is on the user experience and the ease of navigation of the site. We believe strongly in the "three click" principle… if the user needs more that three clicks from anywhere in the site to get further information, then we've failed at our job. This simple philosophy has been applied to all the sites we have produced, from the simplest five page website to enterprise wide 5000 page websites.
The DIS approach is simple and effective and it works for our varied clients.

OnLine Marketing
Once you have gone to the trouble and expense of producing your website, you need to market it to attract visitors and potential clients. Not actively promoting your website is like producing a glossy brochure or catalog and hiding you're your cupboard. Eyeballs equals sales or services. DIS will put together a customized marketing plan for your business that meets you budget and delivers the most cost effective OnLine marketing solution for your business.

Website optimisation and SE submission:
Service includes optomising each page for selected key words and manually submitting to 10 major search engines. We make use of free submission services from the search engines and there is no guarantee that websites will be listed. The turn around to getting listed may be up to six months.

Paid for listings:
In order to fast track your OnLine presence in some of the major search engines, it may be necessary to use paid for listing services. Some search engines charge for guaranteed listings on an annual basis.

Project Management
Taking your business OnLine is no longer a matter of designing a good looking website and publishing it and hoping that it will all work out. Project managing the development and deployment of an Internet presence is a highly complex series of events that need to interface in a meaningful, productive and cost effective way in order to bring the project to a successful conclusion. DIS is able to manage this process from the initial stages of needs analysis and business objective assessment, through the design of the look and feel that incorporates the navigation structure and site architecture, the development of the website and the integration into the existing business systems. We have managed projects that range from small 10 page sites to enterprise wide cross platform solutions involving a team of 10 developers and designers in diverse locations across three continents.
