Nick Hall, who publishes OurLocalExpert.co.uk, explained that: “Organic Development were chosen to design the website because of their experience in adapting free-source software, in this instance, Joomla”.
He went on: “Free-source software most appealed to me, because I believe it will give me more development options in the future, and it will be easier to support”.
“Organic Development were particularly helpful in advising me, and adapting the existing Joomla model in a way that would best suit my needs and my readers’ needs. They have given me the perfect local directory of recommended businesses, which the community can trust because it is based on genuine local recommendations.”
“True to their name, Organic were open minded to allow my website to develop as it began to take shape, and as we began to understand the possibilities of the powerful tools they had at their disposal. Their developers were very helpful, patient and flexible to my scope as it firmed up over the course of the project.” “Organic even developed a training session at my request, to help us understand how to make the most of the new website.”
“I am also delighted at how quickly the website has been picked up by Google since going live, and how well it is already performing. Obviously this was part of the design, but there were no guarantees”.
The Our Local Expert website was project-managed by Matt Brown, with Phil providing most of the technical expertise, but all of the team were happy to help out – specialist SEO advice being provided by Ross, and much of the original scope agreed with James.
If you live in East Devon or Exeter, we encourage you to use the site yourself, and make use of the genuine recommendations of quality local tradespeople, local food, complementary therapists and more. See www.OurLocalExpert.co.uk.
