Serenity Health & Beauty, Poynton, Cheshire

There has never been such a choice of Health & Beauty treatments. Serenity Health & Beauty required a site that demonstrated to their customers the variety of treatments available in a way completely in keeping with Serenity's distinctive corporate identity.

Her manicure business Nailrooms needed a site that is both modern and stylish - like Nailrooms' clientele in the Wilmslow area and accross Cheshire!

Krann built into the site a Special Offers and News section which allows Karrie to add and modify extra pages to the site via a password-protected interface whenever she has access to the internet.

Query Management Credit Control

Query Management

Specialising in Credit Control for the Plastics Industry, start-up firm Query Management were looking for a local firm that could deliver a quality website and help write content for the pages - Krann Ltd did just that with a methodical plan which suited Query Management's precise requirements.

 


Appletons Accountants

Appletons Accountants

With a huge number of customers, this firm of accountants, based in Poynton, Cheshire, are rushed of their feet and have no time to keep their website up to date.

Consequently, they had a website address...and that's about all they had. Krann designed a website and packed it with useful content: tips on saving tax, the Chancellor's Budget explained, how to write a will, whether to turn a home business into a limited company etc.

The result is a site that currently ranks fourth* on Google UK for the term 'Cheshire Accountants' [ * as of Aug 2007]

All this information needs constant updating and Krann manages the site too - Appletons now have a web presence without the bother.


Carpet Creations

Beautiful Home Interiors for Cheshire and Derbyshire !

A beautiful site for a beautiful range of furniture, flooring and interior decor! This Poynton-based company wanted something special.

This Krann website allows them to showcase hundreds of images of what they have in stock, yet the site is very simple to use and gives an immediate positive impression to prospective clients.

When Carpet Creations decided to launch a new online shop specialising in Amtico Spacia and Amtico Essentials flooring,they came to Krann.

They knew they could rely on us to help bring their new site to thousands of prospective customers by making the site as attractive as possible to search engines such as Google.

Krann had already helped deliver fantastic optimisation results for their Carpet Creations site and with both the technical ability to install an online shop with a proven record at Search Engine Optimisation, sticking with Krann for this exciting new project was a 'no brainer'!


The Paving Centre

Even though The Paving Centre had an OK website, it lacked the marketing push to really bring in the customers.

All that has changed since Krann took over The Paving Centre's online marketing. As MD Mark Bentley explains: "My business was transformed with a Krann webiste - now I'm getting so many new customers I'm well on the way to flooring the whole of the North West!"

 


JDB Interiors Ltd.

Krann is honoured to have the talented Tony Martin – wedding singer par excellence – as a valued client!

Tony told us: "I love the site and the improvements you have made and I have a great deal of confidence when guiding people toward it, the drop down menus look great as does the rest.

ClassixAutos - Classic Car Website

Keith Williams sells Classic Cars, and he's been doing it for decades, taking pride in developing an excellent reputation for quality and service.

Although a self-confessed technophobe, Keith didn't want his bad experiences to stop him from getting a new website that worked. More than that, he wanted a website that was simple enough for him to manage himself.

For Keith, Krann delivered ClassixAutos.com - a classic cars website that lets him list as many cars as he needs with up to 10 photographs per car.


ClassixWorld - Classic Car Website

In tandem with ClassixAutos.com, Krann has developed a Classic Cars Sales website for all classic car dealers - ClassixWorld.co.uk.

Krann and Keith are working together now to get more quality Classic Car dealers online through their innovative new website.

 

 


Securit (GB) Ltd.

Demonstrating the value of secure vehicle storage products requires a dynamic online approach. Working in partnership with Securit, Krann has helped this new company excel in their chosen field.

Krann has managed their site for over a year, incorporating 'buy now' ecommerce facilites, content management and working with Securit (GB) to boost their online revenues.


SR Off-Road

This experienced and talented motorcycle racing team lacked visibility. We helped turn their obvious talent into photo stories in the local press through effective targeting of press releases.

Once we had developed the content, we turned it into a website to promote the team who are now a major force in World Supermoto racing.

 

 


EJ Baldock Jewellery

A true craftsman delivering destinctive and original jewellery, each one a work of art in itself, Ed Baldock wanted a website that showcased his work, his methods and set him aprt from the standard pieces of jewellery prevalent on the internet.

Krann delivered a site that relies on the photography of Mr Baldock's work, descriptions of how Baldock's caters for its clients and puts over the ambience of the shop and workshop in Nantwich, Cheshire.


Fluid Equipment Services Ltd.

Bill Jordan, an experienced and innovative distributor of Graco Pumps to a wide range of industries was not getting much of a response from his website.

The reason?

His website was 'Flash Heavy'. In simple terms, although the site was filled with fancy animation, none of it could be read and catalogued by the world's search engines. His site was virtually 'Google invisible'.

Krann replaced the site with a new one which was user-friendly, useful and much more in-keeping with Bill's corporate identity. Above all it was crammed with useful content for prospective customers and all this content is readable by the search engines.

Even though FES has had a website for years, his company have never ranked well in Google. So, we will wait and see where FES are this SUmmer 2006 and how much business FES can get from their web investment.


Leyton Fasteners - supplier of Industrial Nuts & Bolts

Leyton Fasteners were so impressed with the website of nearby neighbour The Paving and Flooring Centre that they called us in to hand their website.

We delivered a quality website showcasing their extensive range of industrial fasteners, washers, bolts and power tools, as well as helping them market their brand more effectively.


Q Flooring Systems Limited

Industrial Resin Flooring specialists Q Flooring Systems wanted a site that ranked highly on the search engines and showcased the solutions they have delivered over the years to a wide-ranging clientele of largely blue-chip companies.

Krann's solution was to scroll images of their work across the screen and provide a content management system (CMS) allowing the company to add page after page of press releases to their site independently.


Quest Energy Services International Inc.

Based in Dubai, Quest Energy Services needed a website that showcased their experience, expertise and and range of drilling products for the oil industry.

Krann put a simple site together which did all this in under a week. Client contact was maintained via Skype - a free face-to-face video conferencing system available to download free to anyone with a broadpad connection on their PC.


Anderson-Goddard

Launching their new environmentally-friendly service which surveys buildings' environmental credentials and certifies sites based a SAP Energy Rating survey, Anderson Goddard wanted a site that was content-rich, had a memorable address and could be updated with the minimum of fuss.

Krann used the company's existing photography and content, added to it and created a site packed with information an dlinks to a wide range of interested organisations.

Since doing the site, which already ranks on page 1 on Google for a selection of relevant keyword phrases, Paul Goddard invited Krann back to make the site even better for its customers by refining its coding for optimum search engine visibility.


Peak Manufacturing Ltd.
