RECENT PROJECT: Watkins & Tasker Vets



Watkins & Tasker Vets have been a client of ours for many years, in fact this is the third version of their website that we have produced for them.  This brand new design has evolved via discussions with key players at the practice and as a result they’re happy that it accurately reflects their brand and image.  Do take a look: http://www.watkins-tasker-vets.co.uk

The new site is fully responsive – displays differently according to the type of device that is viewing it – which provides the site visitor with a better experience (especially on a mobile phone), and also receives a slight Google search engine advantage too!

Good photography is so important.  It’s difficult to make a site look great with poor photos, and the fact that almost every photo was taken onsite of partners, vets, nurses, admin staff and of course pets… means the site comes across as genuine and personal.

The site has several feeds, so the latest Twitter, Facebook and Instagram content appears embedded in the website.  Owners can register their pet’s details, order repeat prescriptions or access online diagnosis via the website.  Go take a look!!!

If you know of anyone who wants to meet with an approachable, pro-active web company to discuss their requirements… go on… mention us!  Thanks.
