This man gets things done and in no time at all, if he hits a problem which he did with my email, Twitter and Facebook accounts wasn't afraid to say hi I don't know what's happening but I'll find out and try and sort it, which he did, offer a draft first, something we didn't get with other web designer, so we were able to have our say over what went live. with in a week we were live and phone ringing with in minutes. Feel we have already built up a friendship.
Chris has been excellent from conception to completion with ongoing advice and support. His expertise shows from the results we have had with first page rankings on google and web specific bookings of our services. I have no hesitation in recommending Chris he is a treasured find in a mine field of "web professionals". We are so glad we found him to do our website, [www.allsortstraining.com](https://www.allsortstraining.com). First class.
I'm so proud of the website Chris designed for me in 2011, I've asked him to create and Design another website for myself and my partner for 2012. It was not just the website I was happy with Chris, has helped me to gain more business, He supported me and gave me a lot of confidence, he has always been very professional, fast and helpful. Before meeting Chris I did a month free trial and only had 40 people look on my website with no new clients, however after only 2-3 days after lunch I had over 1000 people and I'm still gaining clients now, so I owe Chris a lot. Thank you Chris. Worth every penny and more!
I have found Chris to be very knowledgeable about his area of expertise almost passionate at times. Refreshingly, it seems that he never feels the need to bamboozle you with jargon and explains and advises you throughout the whole process, working at a pace to suit your busy schedule.I have been more than pleased with the final result and the cost of our website for our Solar installation company, so much so that I now intend to get Chris to do a new website for our electrical installation and controls company. I would thoroughly recommend Chris and the service he provides to anyone seeking a professional website.
Chris has designed my new website and I have received compliments on its clarity and utility. He produced my site quickly and brainstormed with me (and Mike) to come up with a new and more informative name. His colleague, Gareth Waters, designed my business card with me, which has similarly met with envy and accolade. I have been, and continue to be, really pleased with their service and would not hesitate to recommend their work.
I Just had my catering business website set up and built up by Chris. What a job, I can't fault it. It is just what I wanted and more. You were recommended to me by a good friend and another catering company and true to your word, you are one of the best at what you do. Thank you for all you have done.

Had my website built from scratch by Chris, from word go the service was excellent. Initial draft ready in a couple of days, alterations carried out even quicker and any resulting issues dealt with. I would highly recommend Chris to anyone who needs a website or their current one refreshed. Top man, thanks again Chris.
Chris has been extremely patient with us and has tried to satisfy our needs for business very well, constantly asking if we were happy with the outcome. The site probably took a little longer to get built than planned, but overall it was well worth the wait.
Chris has just designed our website. We received exceptional service and support and guidance from Chris. What a great person to deal with, that always answers his phone to you and gets things done professionally and promptly.
I had become disillusioned with my old website, and the thought of finding a new site designer was worrying me β the market is flooded with individuals that claim they are professional and can design websites for today's markets. After reading reviews and recommendations about Chris, I gave him a call. From start to finish he was patient with my requests, and worked with me to complete my site in record time.
I received exceptional service, support and guidance from Chris when he designed, developed and set up our website. He made the scary and unknown process of setting up an e-commerce website straightforward and easy to understand, and more importantly easy to maintain myself once it was up and running. So pleased with the result β have had so much positive feedback about it.
We had a business website built for us by Chris. The attention to detail and additional advice supplied was impressive. The whole process from initial discussion of our requirements, to the site going live, was handled extremely professionally and has been provided at a cost that puts the "off the shelf" website building companies to shame.
The Military Mentors website is my best marketing tool. The professional presentation sets just the right tone for potential clients, most of whom comment most favourably about it. If you want to create an impressive first impression, Chris is the guy to go to.

Chris has built 5 websites in total for my different businesses. Chris does a fantastic job, so easy to get on with, communicates clearly and understands totally the briefs. Chris is highly recommended for any website project.
Chris designed our website for our Guesthouse in Tenby, South Wales, which we are very pleased with. He's always willing to help with the website and is willing to give good advice at all times. I highly recommend him to anyone, and do regularly.
After shopping around for an experienced web designer, we decided on Chris. Not only was Chris knowledgeable and professional, but exceptionally quick at what he does as well! We were a bit worried as we'd never had a website before, but luckily Chris guided us in the right direction every time, the result being a fantastic, fully functioning website. Chris dealt with everything from purchasing the domain name to providing lessons to ensure we knew how to update it, and has been available via email from day one.
The website Chris designed is doing brilliant, the work I have had from it has been amazing. Also passed my details on through his network and got some great business cards and flyers. Thank you again.
Chris built me a brilliant website, and kept me up to date along the way. He's always been happy to answer any questions, and it's comforting to know he's available to answer any future problems. Highly recommend.
Used this company when we started up business ourselves. Chris designed our website and has continued to provide us with superb aftercare and advice on useful other sites to promote our business. I would really recommend him.
Chris did a first class job of redesigning our website and getting the SEO spot on first time around. There are many web companies out there who talk a good game but deliver very little β Chris is not one of those. Understood what I wanted and delivered bang on time.
I have known Chris for some time now and always trusted his opinion on things. He will talk things through with you on a level you can understand. He is not at all a pushy sales person but a nice person who has your best interest at heart. Hard working and very, very good at what he does.
Chris came to our office as we were interested in talking about SEO. Chris explained this to us fully. We went ahead and asked Chris to do the SEO for us. This has resulted in us now being number one on many Google pages covering many areas and all the services that we offer. Chris is a genuine guy and his main aim is to make your business more successful.
Website design and SEO. Extremely efficient and professional service delivered to specification. Chris built my business website, Imaginative Gourmet. I have seen a big rise in customer enquiries and work since the website went live. I would have no reservation in recommending him to anyone. I have since had a new revamp of the website from Chris.
From start to completion Chris has been a pleasure to work with, either in person, by phone or by email. Chris guides you and keeps you updated throughout the process. Nothing is ever trivial or too complex, his honesty and ethical values shine through in the way he conducts his work. I am very positive about the future growth in my company now I have Chris on board.
I first met Chris after a brief chance call and explained my website wasn't bringing in work. Since then he has achieved fantastic things with my site and now the website continues to bring in work leads. I cannot rate this business highly enough, he is a true professional and his dedication is 100% β always thinking of his clients with honest feedback.
Chris has produced 2 websites for us, and also another 2 for associates who we referred Chris too. The quality, speed and price of his work was spot on and he provided me with training on the use of the CMS system. My website is compatible with all mobile phones and tablets. We are also number one on Google, testament to his SEO skills! Highly recommended.
"Before working with Chris, our website was simply sitting there doing nothing for our business. We knew our online presence needed to reflect the quality of our composite doors, uPVC windows, and conservatories, but the old site brought in zero enquiries. Chris built us a modern, professional website that looks fantastic and performs brilliantly. If you need a web designer who delivers real local results, we could not recommend Chris highly enough."
An exceptional website, looks like I am a big company. Helped me get my first job, as it was a bit slow for me. Supported me all the way, feel I made some great friends since meeting them. Please contact them, it will be the best thing you've done. If you are a new business like I was, you should definitely get in touch with Chris straight away.
Complete website set up for our church. Joint input, listening to what we wanted and needed β we were involved every step of the way. I'm no computer genius but I can use this to update etc. Response to our website has been good and really good comments. Highly recommended.

"We have been dealing with Chris for some time now on various projects, and he always does a good job for us and is a pleasure to work with.

Chris delivered a high-performing website that clearly showcases our work and turns casual browsers into genuine local enquiries. Within weeks of launching, the difference was incredible."
Chris Taylor is one of exceptional finds. He has been a great help in helping me to achieve high positions on Google using search engine optimisation. He has designed a website that is driving traffic and enquiries to our site.
Very pleased with my new site, Chris listened to what we do and what audience we want to attract and the site is already attracting traffic. Very efficient service, feel confident I can go back to him for help if unsure how to maintain the site. We have since had a further 2 websites from Chris for our Swindon businesses.
Chris has provided design for three websites, which in and of itself is a recommendation. The latest, a political site, has been highly successful because the easy-to-navigate layout provides a variety of content, making the site interesting and bringing people back time and time again.
I was very impressed with the speed my website was set up. Communication via email with the company was excellent, including a home visit to explain how things worked.
There is no doubt in my mind whatsoever, Chris is the bees knees when it comes to web design. It's a great honour and privilege to have his firm as my web design provider. Now you've tried the rest, but Chris is most definitely the best.
After having a bad experience with other web companies it was refreshing to deal with Chris. He dealt with the complexities of domain transfer quite effectively, whereas other companies had struggled. Nothing was too much trouble, and it proves that it definitely pays off when dealing locally.

After a bad experience with another web design company, I approached Chris, who by far is one of the best businesses I have had to deal with in a long time β very professional and prices are great, highly recommended. He built a great website for my Aerial business in Cwmbran.
Right from the enquiry stage the friendliness and promptness never failed to impress. Chris offers excellent ideas and prompt delivery, all for a very reasonable price.
After a meeting with Chris, he listened to my requirements, gave excellent and above all honest advice. The work was carried out promptly, with communication a key priority, and produced a fantastic, informative, easy to navigate website. All expertly put together with no hassle, and above all to the agreed price. I would highly recommend Chris to anyone.
Chris has optimised my website with far more success and at a fraction of the cost of any other company I have dealt with. I will certainly be using his services again.

I requested a website which would promote two private villas for rental. After providing some information and a selection of photographs, in a very short time we had a stunning website design which gave a good insight into the facilities provided by the villas. I was most impressed by the amount of research and forethought which had gone into the overall design of the site.
When I saw the quality of the French holiday home website he could provide, I commissioned the same. This was up and running incredibly quickly. Chris is courteous, pleasant and always manages my changes promptly. My business has improved dramatically thanks to the site.
Chris has just been so helpful to our business with regard to IT matters and webpage design. We live in France and being in a different country has not caused any problems at all. We trust him with all aspects of the work he does for us. He's very prompt, understands what we need and very reasonably priced. We have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone.
A very professional and friendly service. I was exceptionally delighted with the advice and help that Chris gave me, and would highly recommend his services to anyone. The customer service and professionalism are second to none.
Chris established and administers the website for my small tourist business in Egypt. The site is very user friendly and has contributed significantly to my business levels. He has been helpful throughout and responds promptly to any issues raised.
Top class. Very professional, Chris obviously enjoys his work and that can be seen in his web creations. Excellent attention to detail and unrivalled customer service. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him to anyone.
Despite living abroad in France, Chris was able to sort out the problems inherited on my website from a previous designer, so that I could continue to update it myself. Service was very prompt by phone and email β always helpful and easy to understand β and costs were always very competitive.
Chris was fantastic to work with. He helped me update my website and did a great job. He was and still is so quick to make any requested changes, nothing ever seems to be a problem. His charges for any work done were very reasonable.
Chris designed a website for my cottage rental business. From the outset he was extremely helpful and produced a good first draft in a very short space of time. All my emails were answered rapidly and telephone support was available outside normal office hours. Overall the cost of the project represented exceptional value for money.
Chris contacted me as he noticed my previous web page was not optimised, I now have a fully revamped webpage which not only far better but will now get accessed via search engines, Great. Chris is a typical honest Valley boy, man of honesty and walks the walk, a pleasure to deal with, and it was only Β£550!!! He knows his stuff.
