About Us

Web Man Walking is a web design and usability company founded by web designer/developer and usability consultant, Ed Henderson.

Web Man Walking will design and build your website and can provide a usability review on your existing website if you have one. Our methodology ensures that we work closely with you to create a website that best captures your companies profile. We develop and build attractive websites that account for speed, file size, readability and accessibility - using Web Standards. And we will ensure your website ranks well on the major search engines.

Our skills have allowed us to develop a diverse client base in many differing business areas. Please take the time to view some of our existing Portfolio and Customer Testimonials.

Our Philosophy

Make it useable, easy to understand and attractive. Simple designs are easier to use, easier to understand, more intuitive, load faster, and more maintainable than their flashy, image laden counterparts. Our work has already proven that simplicity doesn't have to look cheap or be plain.

Our Goals

Web Man Walking has four main goals:

Produce solutions that our clients are happy with.
Produce solutions that improve our clients business.
Create colourful, simple, pleasant, usable and accessible websites.
Provide an excellent service so that every client will return to us for future work.

How Can We Help You?

We have many years experience in web design which has allowed us to explore all aspects of the Internet. This means we are able to assist in every stage of creating your online presence. From consultation and design, to setting up email, configuring web space and developing marketing ideas.
We try to avoid technical jargon as much as possible. We can explain everything along the way and explain the technology used as little or as much as you want. We won't sell you something you don't need.
We have done a vast range of sites, from the small local business to much larger companies, we understand that their needs and goals are different and this is reflected in the proposal. We will however suggest possible future ideas to bring your sites forward, that perhaps you hadn't thought of or didn't know were possible to help give your site the edge.
We take pride in making all sites unique, we do not work from templates (which a lot of design companies do) so all sites are built entirely from scratch complimenting your current brand/image if you have one, or my unique ideas if you don't.
We can be contacted anytime. You will be kept up to date in every stage of the development process. Even when the project is over, contact doesn't stop, we are on hand for any questions that might come up for the life of the site.
We don't just build you a website. We work with you to understand how the web can benefit your business over the long term. Because we deliver excellent solutions and provide a friendly and responsive service our clients stay with us.
While we excel at what we do, we keep our overheads low which means we don't have to charge top rates.
We believe Usability comes first. That is why we design for your customers and not to make our Portfolio look good. If they can easily find what they are looking for, they will keep coming back and that benefits you.
We can work independently, or can collaborate with other third parties to tackle large projects with you.
Sites are designed around this idea of "build once, last forever" or "one page serves all" . With this in mind we build foundations that are strong enough to last, saving you money when it comes to updating, redevelopment or even redesigning your site.

Web Standards

Web Man Walking is built on a foundation of web standards, we believe in web standards set by the W3C - valid, structured code to produce pages that will look great on modern browsers yet still functional and useable on older ones. Utilising web standards leads to real results:

Decreased bandwidth and server space.
Improved accessibility to all browsers and devices (including those with disabilities).
Increased separation of presentation layer code from content.
Simplified updating of look and feel.
Faster page loading.
Lower costs.
