Supporting Surrey Websites

Our facility is dedicated to ensuring website development services are available to community groups and small business in Surrey. As a not for profit organisation we particularly assist businesses who may not yet be able to afford the best support, free of charge where possible, or with a small contribution required. We offer every encouragement for site owners to build their website management skills and help ensure professional web developers work alongside them when needed. The aim is to establish an effective website to communicate your message, improve search engine rankings and attract website visitors. Whether you have an existing website, or are just starting out, we can help. All website advice is free, backed up by more intensive support outlined below.

• Advice on planning a website for your business, or community group. With the right approach and an understanding of technical needs, reaching out to the people of Surrey and beyond can be invaluable.
• Detailed website reports give an unbiased view of your website, visitor reaction, usability and a full technical review. Whether using in house skills or a designer, this can help you succeed with people and search engines.
• Website support at your location from an experienced developer can save you time and improve your skills. Apart from direct technical assistance, they have the opportunity to identify improvements you can take forward yourself.
• Our website development package combines the two services above. A developer will prepare a detailed website report, then spend half a day working with you to implement improvements and ensure you can continue to build on them.

Competing with website design companies would be against our objectives. We prefer to work with them, although if you are a new, or quite small business and professional design fees would be impractical, we will try to help. Our main focus will be offering support to assist you in taking your own website forward. We can also find an experienced website developer to work with you, although they will charge for this, albeit at a reasonable rate. They will help create a search engine friendly starter site, of a high standard but until your business grows, managing and taking the site forward yourself makes economic sense. Every encouragement will be available for you to achieve this and improve your website development skills:

• Free telephone and email support, to help with everyday website problems
• Helping identify areas for website improvement and offering a website review
• Whether a site is built by you, or your designer, ensuring good search engine optimisation
• Working with you, to ensure everyone in Surrey can access reliable website support

Please feel free to contact us at any time. All contact is confidential, we do not use other websites to promote services, or as examples of good or bad. We can guarantee a friendly welcome and someone to talk to who understands the importance of a successful website.

All core services are aimed at sharing skills and information:

• Website Help Desk
• Creating a Website
• Working With Google
• Improving a Website
• Website Training

A few visitors may have attended our half day website training courses last year. They will be repeated, although we also wish to help Surrey website owners through individual training, at their premises. The link above provides details on website development training options.

Many visitors remember our ties with Surrey PC Support, or may arrive from their website. In line with demand from residents and the small business community, our main purpose is now to see that both benefit from useful websites.

Our IT unit can still offer full advice on computer repair, or recycling. PCs are normally reused in the Surrey community. The links below will take you to the right sections and contact details:
