Personal Website Information

Personal Websites Designed and Built to your Specification

Many of us would love to have our own personal website - perhaps for some of the following reasons
Staying in touch with family and friends or a wider audience that you can control
Storing memories, photographs, videos, news and other media to share with family and friends wherever they may be geographically
Plan social gatherings easily
Many others - perhaps build up a family tree together or some other collaborative projects
Total control over what you share and with whom
Avoid the security risks associated with the social networks
A unique site - not just another social media profile
Forbes and other agencies are recommending those seeking jobs to have a personal website where they can display their achievements to date alongside a traditional curriculum vitae CLICK HERE for a Forbes article with more info
Displaying portfolios of work when seeking employment - this is particularly beneficial for those working in an arts based discipline

People often rely on social media to communicate with friends and family
The amount of data these networks require is getting more onerous quickly
It gives them the ability to build up their own detailed profile of you - which links you click on, your general web activity, your location and much more through what is known as social listening - for more information CLICK HERE .
This data is a very valuable commodity to them. It is sold on to many other parties
There are many examples of these giants getting hacked due to the value of this data
Awareness of this is increasing and many are turning their backs on social media to be in control of what they wish to share and with whom
This approach allows those who have avoided social media to get involved
Of course you may not share these concerns and we can easily link into your existing social media accounts

I place significant emphasis on security and privacy
To become anonymous after surrendering data to these networks is often and deliberately made very complicated as they try to hold onto this valuable asset
I can maximise your anonymity, to such an extent that it is impossible for search engines to find you and only those you share the website link with will be able to locate your super new website
Alternatively, it is possible to increase search rankings if desired, although this is a complex process that typically only businesses want

Having your own website really helps you stand out from other candidates as few are taking the time and effort to prepare this despite the value it adds
The approach allows one to showcase themselves on a less formal basis but still in a professional manner
It is of particular benefit for those who want to display a portfolio of work that a CV would not be able to
Employers are highly likely to look up candidates on social media - directing them to a personal website means that you are in control of what they can see
This is especially valuable for new graduates seeking to start their career with a prestigious organisation
