Websites, from people we work with every day
We make signs. We do not make websites — so we partner with a firm that does. BA Intelligence built the site you are reading right now.
Why we bring this up at all
A fascia, a totem and a wrapped van are the same decision made three times: that it matters how the business looks to somebody who has not met you yet.
The website is that decision again, in the place most people meet you first. Somebody drives past the new sign, likes what they see, and looks you up on the way home. What they find next either finishes the job the sign started, or undoes it.
We see it often enough to have stopped ignoring it. A customer spends properly on the shopfront, and the search that follows lands on a page that has not been touched in six years, or on nothing at all.
What they do
A site that works on a phone
Most people who look you up are standing outside, on 4G, with one hand free. If the site is slow or the number is hard to tap, they ring the next firm on the list.
Found for what you actually do
Not vanity keywords. The searches that end in a job: your trade, your town, and the question a customer types when they already know they need someone.
Somewhere the enquiry lands
A form that reaches a person, not a mailbox nobody opens. If you want it, the enquiry drops into a panel where you can see who asked for what, and when.
Kept running afterwards
Hosting, updates and the small fixes that keep a site from quietly breaking. A website is not a thing you buy once; it is a thing that has to keep working.
Being straight with you
This is a partnership. BA Intelligence look after our site, and we point customers their way when a website is the thing that is missing. We are telling you that because you would work it out anyway, and because a recommendation you can check is worth more than one you cannot.
So check it. Their work is on their own site, including sites for trades and local firms much like the ones we sign every week. Look at those first, and talk to them only if what you see is any good.
They quote for the work themselves — we do not add anything to it, and we do not sit in the middle of it. Whatever you agree is between you and them.
Have a look at what they have built
Their portfolio, on their own site. No introduction needed from us.
