Web Development

Choose Your Web Developer Carefully It’s not easy to choose someone to develop your website. In this business, people will promise you the moon, the sun and the sky, and then fail miserably to deliver. The site might not work the way you wanted, or look the way you wanted, and chances are it will be really hard to use. You’ll have blown your budget and wound up with a product that fails to attract visitors and convert them into customers. So why trust us? 1. We Have What It Takes 2. We have immense experience developing websites that embody every level of complexity, from simple HTML to sophisticated ASP.NET & PHP web apps and of course solid, secure e-commerce sites. It doesn’t matter what flavour of code the situation calls for, we’re masters of every programming language and web standard, and we thoroughly test your website to make sure it works in every browser and every device. We know what we’re doing, we understand your needs, and we know that every site we build will only benefit you – and us – if we do it right.

E-commerce

Join the E-commerce Revolution Twenty years ago, no one bought things online, but today it’s a trillion dollar industry. If you’re a business and you’re selling something, you’re doing it at least partly online. But it’s not enough to copy-and-paste a PayPal button onto your site – you have to have a top-notch team who knows how to flawlessly convert visitors into paying customers. Functionality is Critical Like everything else involved with developing for the web, the technology underlying e-commerce has advanced by leaps and bounds. Making purchases online may feel the same for the consumer, but there’s so much more going on under the hood. For instance, purchasing can be carried out in local languages and currencies, even the local date and time. You can also integrate search engine optimization techniques to improve search ranking, breadcrumbs to allow users to move around your site without clicking backwards. All these features, and many more need to be supported by world-class computer code. Sloppy programming could lead to site freezes, security holes and worse. Good technology means good business.

Mobile App development

Apps: Not Just An Accessory Anymore The modern digital universe offers so many ways to connect businesses with customers, but among the most exciting is the growth of applications. The first rule of marketing is to go to the customer, and nowadays customers are mobile. They expect the convenience of interacting with you whenever and wherever they feel like it, quickly, easily and reliably, through their smartphones and tablets. We’re completely familiar in all the mobile platforms out there, including Apple’s iPhone and iPad, Google’s Android, RIM’s BlackBerry, and not to mention Windows Mobile. We can build smooth, steady apps that get the job done, whatever that job might be.

DESIGN

Web Design

A website has to play many roles: a promotional tool, a communications device, a branding engine, a storefront. But what it all adds up to is a complex, living organism that has to work. For a website to work… • It must be user friendly, technologically stable and bug free • It must be visually pleasing in order to further your brand • It must be highly effective at converting visitors into customers.

It must achieve all these goals in the simplest and easiest way possible Building a profitable website is a complex task that is much more involved than simply adopting a new technology. It’s a major effort designed to increase conversions and, therefore, profitability.Making this investment pay off takes hard work, dedication and top-notch experience. You’ve got to blend art and science into something that pushes conversions to new heights.

Logo Design

At Areed, we understand how important a good logo is. We don’t just throw together a few vague doodles, we generate meaningful concepts that reflect your corporate identity. All art is original and crafted by skilled illustrators – we never use stock photography. Like everything we do, the logos we create make us proud. And we’re confident they’ll make you proud, too.Don’t think of a new logo in terms of colour or shape; definitely don’t think of it in reference to other, more familiar logos. Think of it in terms of emotion: bold, confident, graceful and so on. This is the foundation of all great logos.

It’s Your Logo and Your Choice

When you get right down to it, the process for creating a logo isn’t about us, it’s about you. That’s why we collaborate and work with you throughout the entire project. You’re involved in the creation of preliminary designs, you sign off on all changes and revisions, and you choose the final concept that perfectly represents your company. We’re always happy to share our thoughts and ideas. Contact us to start the conversation!

Print Design

Print Design: You Need It, We’ll Make It

In this hyper-connected digital world, it’s easy to forget that old-fashioned hard copy documents are still a major part of how businesses reach their customers. But it’s a fact that connecting with people has not yet gone “paperless” and probably never will. This means you need a team of designers fluent in the arcane language of print production, backed by marketers, writers and illustrators.

If it goes on paper, we can create it. Our designers are capable of crafting any document and all kinds of marketing materials. Catalogues that elegantly showcase your products, eye-catching signs to lure visitors to a convention booth, dinner menus that make your customers salivate – if you need it, we can make it.

Hard copy is here to stay. The paperless office is now a reality, but it’ll always be necessary to communicate using print materials. In other words, it would be a huge mistake to overlook the need for quality print design!
