you are here: about us > about axis web developments

Axis Web Developments Ltd specialises in delivering websites and Content Management Systems for the arts and cultural sector.

With many years experience we have the skills and resources to produce usable, sustainable websites that meet your needs whilst firmly establishing your presence on the World Wide Web.

Content Management: With a solution developed by Axis Web Developments, you will have direct and easy control over the content that is supplied to your audience, and you will be able to monitor the usage of your site effectively. On your website visitors can find quickly what they look for and manage their own online profile where they need to. We embrace Web 2.0 interaction methods to provide your site visitors with the best possible browsing experience.

Usability and Accessibility: Axis has a track record of creating highly usable and accessible websites. We also have strong links with the Human-Centred Design research group at Leeds Metropolitan University. We use layout style sheets and make pages WCAG compliant to the level required by you. This makes your site accessible to the widest possible range of visitors, whether they use a standard browser or an assistive tool.

User-Centred Approach: We consider the interaction design of a new website as a dynamic process and aim to involve you and your future audience at all stages of the development. We employ an “iterative prototyping” approach to website and software development. This means that releases are made as early as possible, and as often as possible. We are not afraid of questioning previous assumptions.

Best practice: Our experienced developers follow best practice when it comes to commenting code and documenting the system architecture. Developers and visual designers work together in small teams to ensure that knowledge is shared and ideas are “bounced off” easily. We have the professional experience to research and select the best technology for your needs.

Understanding your needs: The services Axis Web Developments offer are unique. We are not aware of any other art-based organisation offering tailored web solutions for the arts and cultural sector.

We believe that by building on our experience, we can deliver you an effective, efficient and highly usable system that creates benefits for your audience, visitors, subscribers and your clients.
