Responsive web design

We are currently working on our new fully responsive website – why?

Day by day, the number of devices, platforms, and browsers that need to work with your site grows. Responsive web design represents a fundamental shift in how we’ll build websites for the decade to come. A responsive website knows what device the visitor is using and adapts the layout to the viewing environment by using fluid grids – how clever is that! This provides an optimal viewing experience so that the visitor can view, navigate and interact with your website in the way they are supposed to.

At Treefrog we help you to stay ahead of your competitors – not only design and build first class websites, but designed to create a great user experience to help generate more sales.

brand consistency

Where necessary and appropriate we can provide identity guidelines with our logos to ensure your brand remains consistent. This can be as comprehensive as needed, from a simple 4-5 page pdf covering anything from logos, fonts and colours to advertising, signage and vehicle livery. The manual is then distributed to all service providers, ensuring the brand remains consistent, whoever is handling it.

Happy New Year from the Pad

Treefrog would like to take the opportunity wish everyone a Happy and Prosperous 2012!

Merry Christmas fron the pad!

Treefrog would like to take the opportunity to thank all our clients for their continued custom and wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy and Prosperous New Year!

Christmas is coming!

Although we realise there’s it’s still a while till Christmas there’s no harm in being prepared. If you’re thinking of having a bespoke Christmas card design then feel free to get in touch and see how we can help.

Printed Cards

We can help with the design, print and even the mailing should you need it. Not only can the card be a bespoke design for your company but when printing we can also personalise each card with your clients individual names.

E-cards

Alternatively if you’d prefer to send a Christmas email out to your clients we can help create and send a bespoke design for you. All that’s needed is a list of clients’ names and emails that would be happy to receive your Christmas message and we can help with the rest.

It always comes around quickly so make sure you speak to us as soon as you can with your requirements.

Like to Tweet?

If you do then you’re no doubt already publicising your company’s Twitter and looking for more followers. Another useful way of utilising your tweets is integrating them into your website so anyone viewing your site is also kept up to date with your most recently tweeted news.

We’ve applied this to several of our clients’ sites and they’ve found it a useful tool for quick updates. Not only is it very user friendly but it also has positive SEO implications. Tying in your site and Twitter account creates a stronger relationship between the two and gives another source for people to access or find your Twitter content.

If you’d like to enquire about integrating your Twitter feed in to your site then please feel free to get in touch by emailing mail@treefrogdesign.tv or calling 020 8399 8030
