Examples of FastNet Websites

All our websites are custom built - the look and layout are chosen to reflect the style and message of your business or group.  We offer research-based, professional advice on what will work for you.  To find the best fit for you we use a range of content management systems including WordPress, Blogger, Weebly and others, template driven or tailor made.

Examples  
The West Cork Garden Trail is a promotional website showcasing many gardens while presenting key information in an interactive map and timetable, a downloadable brochure and a contact form which builds a mailing list of visitors for the trail publicity.



Website and blog for effective SEO 
Dermot Sullivan is a sought after wedding photographer who wanted his website to show strongly in search results, feature many examples of his photography, make clear to clients the added value of his professional experience and also incorporate a blog of weddings past.

Online shop of gifts and prints
Annabel Langrish is an award winning artist who also sells prints and cards of her beautiful animal and wildlife paintings and drawings. Her website needed to reflect the colours and mood of her art while acting as a backdrop to the cards and prints themselves.  It showcases her work while incorporating a fully automated online shop

Professional and efficient feel 
A solicitor's website needs a more sombre feel while still drawing attention to the services and special qualities of the practice.  A call to action is just as necessary as with any business, but in keeping with the feel and layout of the site itself

Website Health Check

Is your website working for you?  

The real test of a website is:

• Does it attract visitors?
• Are they the visitors you wanted?
• Do they stay when they arrive?
• Do they visit the pages you want them to visit?
• Do they stay in touch?

This comes down to a few critical things:

• Can search engines find you?
• Are your key words and metatags and post titles the right ones and are they in place?
• Is the content of your website clear and direct and user friendly?
• Do you have many good links in (and links out)?
• Is your site attractive to visitors in design and layout?
• Is your site easy to navigate?
• Are there clear and easy ways for your visitors to do what you would like them to?
