WE ARE WEB DESIGN.

Welcome to the website of +GOOD. Purveyors of the freshest pixellated ideas and diversions, glossy flash web site design and viral skullduggery. Or web site designers to put it more succinctly.

Based in Newcastle, in the North East of England, +GOOD specialises in fully accessible, yet thoroughly quirky web site design built with an eye toward existing web standards in HTML/CSS and PHP. Wordpress integration is a speciality!

WHOOPSIES.

Well it looks as though you either can't view flash content, or have your javascript switched off, which is a shame, but never mind! We have another, more accessible version of the main web site designed just for you. Alternatively, read on - we've put together a few pages to act as a little guide to our philosophy.

AFFORDABLE WEB DESIGN.

A website designed by +GOOD will be many things: affordable, approachable and easy to use for starters. But first off, let's deal with the thorny issue of cost.

Generally in any decision you have to make, there are trade-offs to be made between a finely calibrated set of two or three key factors. With web design, these tend to be quality, complexity and cost. You may find, for example, an agency capable of producing an incredibly cheap website, probably of the "£300 for a five-page static" variety. And for many people, this may well be the solution that they are looking for. But rest assured, the site content will be read rarely, if at all. The design will be effortless, perfunctory and unlikely to inspire an air of professional confidence in your clients. A low cost has begat an overly simple, poor quality web site design.

Say, instead, you were to take your business to one of the larger agencies with their crystalline offices and their buzzing hive of project managers and account handlers. Well! Needless to say all those people don't come for free, and the cost of your site is likely to be inflated to cover those costs - at no benefit at all to quality. Also, there may well be a not so thinly veiled attempt to increase the complexity of your site and subsequently the project price - after all, a larger site is of more use to an agency in offsetting their running costs. True enough, more thought may be spent on the business goals for your site - but the increased complexity comes at a higher cost, with no guarantees of increased quality.

SIMPLE.

Much better then to find the middle ground. To find a company that is focussed on delivering a high quality web site design for an affordable price, but with just the right amount of complexity. But how is this done? Simple. By hiring professionals with a glut of hard-earned experience, a flair for design and an intimate knowledge of the practicalities involved in building web sites. By hiring a company that will be truthful with you - that will recommend ways to improve your site's performance on one hand, but will talk you out of expensive online faux-pas on the other. In short - by hiring +GOOD.
