Every once in a while I get to work with some absolutely delightful people and this is one of those occasions. Panthers are a long established Bristol kickboxing club who wanted a website to promote their club and communicate with their members via the internet. They approached several designers, received some mixed reactions and [...]

It’s that time of year again when I can get at the imaker site and give it a bit of a wash and brush-up. This time however I thought it needed a complete makeover as since it had been live it had become too busy, had many additions and deletions and, I thought, it had [...]

Content management with joomla is a bit of a new venture for iMaker but we have completed a web site using this for a Psychology tutor in Bristol.

The web design business is such that I’m being asked more often to recommend web hosting. It’s an area I’ve always stayed away from, partly because it is a very crowded market and partly because I felt my area of expertise lay elsewhere. However, a host I had been with for some years began [...]

Another month slipped by and no posts. We at iMaker have been busy over the period since last posting, with new websites ordered, built and launched. We have certainly seen an increase in the number of enquiries coming through so have high hopes for the future. Thanks to all those involved and [...]

The end of November is here already, can’t believe it. It has been an exceptionally busy couple of months. Good number of websites ordered, designed and completed with more coming through regularly and lots of quotes out.
