Long Furlong Holiday Cottages

'Our new site looks as good as our cottages'

Long Furlong Cottages is a well-established business offering luxury holiday accommodation in North Devon.

Janet, one of the owners, says: “We wanted a website that really showed our beautiful cottages at their best. We’d tried web designers but never managed to get what we wanted at a price we could afford.

We heard about SitesPlus through one of their training workshops and decided to try building our own website.

After a tentative start and some great support from SitesPlus, we feel we now have a site that really does do our cottages justice and it’s so convenient to be able to make changes as and when we want to.

It just shows you really can do (much) better yourself!”

Greenthinking

'We needed full control of our site'

Greenthinking is a growing business offering environmental advice and renewable energy products.

What Andrew, one of their founders, says: "SitesPlus is a good quality, simple AND great value product. You can change the content as your business grows and matures and start selling over the Internet with no extra hassle.

The website has become an important part of our business and we’re still amazed by its versatility compared with other website templates. Another colleague recently took over responsibility for the website and had no trouble getting to grips with it. He’s always experimenting with new ways to present our products and services!"

Cholderton & District Water Company

'We need to provide up to date information'

Cholderton & District Water Company provides a public water supply to parts of Wiltshire and Hampshire. A website is a statutory requirement.

Anthony tells us why they chose SitesPlus. “I came across SitesPlus through another organisation that uses their services and thought they were just what we needed. At that point, I had no web experience so decided to use the SitesPlus Fast track service, where they build your site for you and get it you up and running. That all happened quite quickly without any fuss, and now we have an attractive site which I can edit myself as and when I need to. Job done! It was so pain-free we’ve decided to use SitesPlus again for another arm of our business."

Kindred Rose

'I wanted to build my own website to sell online'

Kindred Rose is a start-up business selling cushions and home decorations.

Helen tells us why she chose SitesPlus. “I wanted my hobby to become my business but, with no previous experience and very little to spend, I thought it would be difficult to build my own website.

But SitesPlus is just so easy, I had my website up and running in days and the orders started coming in soon after. Now it’s just growing and growing, just like the website.

I feel pretty confident about my site these days but know the support team are still there when I need them. To be honest, I really don’t think I could have done any of this without SitesPlus”

Kindred Rose are delighted to be selected for the highly competitive online directory, Not on the High Street. Helen told us 'They accept only a small fraction of the thousands who apply.  Thank you SitesPlus!'

Open Hearts Open Minds

SitesPlus isn’t just for businesses: not-for-profit organisations and other initiatives use it too. Open Hearts Open Minds is just one example.

Sam, their coordinator, says: "We had a big idea, a small budget and we’re not techies so were looking for friendly support to build our own website. SitesPlus is a brilliant product which answers all our needs, and their staff have been amazing at helping us to put our ideas into practice. It’s all a bit addictive!"
