Our web designer, Nadin Dunnigan, doesn’t say much about her past successes! But we may as well use this blog to tell everybody about it!
She did not only win Best Web Designer West Lothian in 2005, she also won the Runner-Up Prize of the Shona Sibbald Award in 2006!

This is what the news story said then:

At the prestigious annual awards ceremony on Thursday 25th May 2006, West Lothian Women in Business announced the winners for this year’s Business Awards.

At the sell-out event, 120 guests witnessed the 10 nominated business women receiving their awards. Awards were presented in three categories:

• Business Woman of the Year
• Best Female Employee of the Year
• Shona Sibbald Award for Best New Business

The three nominees for Best New Business in West Lothian were

• Patricia Mavor (www.mavorproperty.co.uk)
• Claire Don (TLC Health.co.uk Ltd)
• Nadin Dunnigan (then www.creatweb.co.uk).

Congratulations to Claire Don who won the Shona Sibbald Award. Both Patricia Mavor and Nadin Roth received the Runner-Up awards for Best New Business. This is the second award Nadin has won since the start of business in 2004.

Before we design your website, we will have a conversation with members of your business in order to find out what your organisation specialises in and what your business is all about. We will ask many questions about your products and your services. We will try to find out what makes your company successful.

We will discuss different website structures and only start the design of your website once we have an understanding of your company and its products and services. During that conversation, we would also like to establish what you want to achieve with your website.

• Do you want to raise awareness or
• do you want to sell products online for example?

From the outset, you will be very involved in the design of your website. It is your website and you are working with us on developing the website to your requirements.

We can provide several website design options and you can then decide which one you like best. You can still decide to change any colours, positioning of logos, navigation and so on.

Marketing Matters in West Lothian strive to provide website designs that look professional and are easy to navigate. Our main aim is that your website visitors can find information very quickly without getting lost. Navigation will be clear and always consistent across your whole website.

And now the boring bit…

Websites developed by Marketing Matters comply with recent accessibility and usability guidelines in accordance with the Disability Discrimination Act. By this, your company information is available to a wider audience. CreatWeb aims to develop websites that reach the AA standard.

We provide a number of important features as standard, such as initial search engine optimisation, contact forms, and the organisation of hosting and domain names.

In February 2005 our web designer was rewarded with Best Web Designer West Lothian by West Lothian Council.
