WordPress Website Design and Web Development for Make IT Happen

We have been working with Make IT Happen designing a new WordPress website to promote the Hampshire based company’s IT services.

With customers including Rolls Royce and The NHS, Make IT Happen provides services across the IT sector including Advanced Server Audit and Analytics, Optimisation, Application Engineering, Azure and Intune Migration, Desktop, Server, Application, and Business Process Cloud Migration, and a wide range of Managed IT Services.

As Make IT Happen works in a highly competitive market, before moving into the design and development stages of the company’s new website, we researched their target audience, competitors, to help with restructuring their existing content for a new optimised UX. We then worked with Make IT Happen to update their branding, specifically looking at colour pallet and typography, before a highly collaborative wireframing through design and build process.

The Make IT Happen website has been developed upon the WordPress Content Management System (CMS). We developed a ground up customised WordPress CMS and WordPress Theme to the Make IT Happen website's requirements. Following the Make IT Happen website going live; the WordPress CMS allows the team at Make IT Happen to quickly and easily login to add new pages, images, and copy.

We've integrated Elementor Pro into the Make IT Happen website's CMS, Elementor Pro offers the team at Make IT Happen visually based advanced web page layout. Using the visual (rather than code based) Elementor Pro editor, the Make IT Happen team can edit and update existing web pages and create new pages based on the templates we have designed, without the need for any coding.

The Make IT Happen website offers visitors a Mobile First Responsive Web Design (RWD) allowing for the Make IT Happen website’s content to be optimised for mobile interaction and predictably delivered irrespective of device. The addition of custom mobile device navigation results in a highly optimised browsing experience.

The Make IT Happen website includes:

• Custom SVG animations
• Custom SVG graphics
• Custom .mp4 animations
• Insights allowing for thought leadership articles
• Custom web fonts
• Lazy image loading
• Google Analytics setup
• Google Search console integration
• On page SEO
• A Lightspeed score of 90+ at launch

Following completion of the Make IT Happen website we provided WordPress CMS training to allow the team at Make IT Happen to keep their new website up to date moving forward.

The Make IT Happen website is being hosted on our Managed WordPress Hosting which runs on UK based Amazon Web Services (AWS) infrastructure, includes a Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and offers multiple UK availability zones designed and managed in alignment with best security practices and IT security standards. This all provides a fast, secure, and reliable hosting platform for the new Make IT Happen website.
