SEO IS ESSENTIAL
What’s the point of owning a small business if there is no potential to eventually be labelled as a big business? If you own a small company, you’re probably interested in ways you can grow your business to take it to the next level.
But, where to start? SEO or search engine optimization is a great way to use the internet to reach more potential clients and grow small businesses.
What we do, and more about the basics
Web design is the skill of creating presentations of content (usually hypertext or hypermedia) that is delivered to an end-user through the internet, by way of a Web browser or other Web-enabled software and devices.
Web sites are similar (in a very simplistic way) to traditional print publishing. Every website is an information display container, just as a book; and every page is like the page in a book.
Site design is a kind of graphic design intended for development and styling of objects of the Internet’s information environment to provide them with high-end consumer features and aesthetic qualities. The offered definition separates design from programming, emphasizing the functional features of a site, as well as positioning design as a kind of graphic design. HDT is a leading web design solutions provider.
Along with web design and development services, we provide site-speed optimisation and web hosting services for our clients. Our managed hosting service allows us to ensure that your website is operating at peak performance – continuing to provide a great user-experience for your customers, long after your site has gone live.

FAQ’s
The look and feel of a website, as well as its navigation and functionality is a direct reflection of your business. For this reason, a well-planned, carefully considered website design is imperative if you are wanting to really put your best foot forward online and engage more customers.
At HDT Web Design, we do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach, so although we use website development platforms such as WordPress, we will design your website in a manner that complements your overall brand identity and which appeals to your particular target audience. Our marketing team and website designers will work closely with you to ensure that we produce a website design that you will be proud of and that your customers will flock to.
An astonishing 1 in 4 people in South Africa now access the internet using their mobile devices, with more people joining the local mobile internet revolution daily. Traditional websites do not scale down to fit the smaller screen size of a mobile device which makes text difficult to read, while buttons and links tend to be difficult to locate and use.
A mobile friendly website avoids all these problems and delivers a pleasant experience to the mobile user. A stand-alone mobile website (mobi site) is separate from the main website and has its own URL – for example http://m.google.com. The latest trend however is toward responsive website design, which enables the website to resize according to the device being used.
Whether you opt for a stand-alone mobile website or a mobile responsive website will depend entirely upon your needs as a business. We will help you to make the best decision for your business during our online marketing consultation with you (our consultations are free!).
The time that it will take us to design your website and deliver the finished product to you, depends on the size and complexity of the site. While simple information based websites are fairly quick to produce (two to four weeks), larger, more complex websites, will take longer. Incorporating solid website testing, especially in the case of complex websites is vital and this testing can take a few days when it comes to more complex websites. When we provide you with our quotation, we will also provide you with a time-frame for completion.
A high search ranking with Google is dependent on the experience that you are able to create for your visitors and how your website is developed i.e. it needs to be developed in-line with Google’s best SEO practices. To achieve the perfect balance, the content, functionality and design of the website must synergise. In addition, search engine optimisation techniques need to take place behind the scenes, by experienced and qualified SEO specialists.
Our website design and development team at HDT Web Design specialises in building premium, high-performance websites. By ensuring that your content contains keywords that attract interest; your website design is both logical and visually appealing; and by ensuring that your website functions perfectly every time –we deliver an online experience for your business that is worth returning to!
In addition, we build our search engine optimisation (SEO) service in to each new website that we build which includes all the behind the scenes, technical stuff that will help your website rank in the highest possible position in Google search results.
Please note however that although we will ensure that your website is suitably search engine optimised when it is built, SEO is ultimately an ongoing practice which incorporates content upgrades (such as regular blog posts), social media and online pay-per-click (PPC) advertising. We will discuss the most cost efficient and suitable solution for your business during our online marketing consultation with you – our consultations are free.
