Website Design, Construction and hosting
The Internet is the marketplace of the future. In a world where e-Commerce never stops, can you really afford not to have a presence on the World Wide Web?
PJL Business Services recognises the power of the Internet for marketing businesses, and can provide a range of IT services to support your business needs. Whether you're looking for a small website simply to present yourself or your company on the internet, or a full transactional e-Commerce site to support your business, we have the experience to deliver a solution for you.
If you're looking to make your first step on to the web, we can build a web site for you, which can be as simple or as complicated as you want. We can mirror existing marketing material you may have, or advise on a new design. We would start by meeting with you to discuss your needs, and show you what can be achieved. Once the web site has been built to your specific requirements and agreed with you, we can host the website on the Internet on your behalf and provide you with a unique domain name (e.g. www.your-company-name.co.uk) for you to give to your customers. But the service doesn't stop there. We realise that your web site may require updating in the future, and we will be glad to provide a support service. We can provide you with e-mail forwarding from your new web address to existing e-mail addresses, or even advise on what computer equipment you might need to access e-mails.
If you would prefer a more sophisticated multi-page web site, please contact us to discuss your specific requirements. Whilst you'll appreciate that we cannot provide a blanket price for all web sites (we want to give you a competitive price for a web site to meet your requirements), but you will find that the cost of advertising your company on the Internet, with the help of PJL Business Services, is much cheaper than you would expect.
Once a website has been built, we monitor the effectiveness of the website using a web traffic analysis tool from Statcounter. This provides us with details of the numbers of visitors to the website, where they are from, the search engine criteria they are using, and how this is changing over time.
The following list a few examples of web sites that PJL Business Services have built for customers.

Orchard Studio Hants
Orchard Studio is a self-catering apartment located down a quiet country lane and surrounded by the beautiful Hampshire countryside in the village of Greatham. The apartment is available for short-term lets and is conveniently located for events at Goodwood, West Sussex.

Avios Twin To Win competition

Rozario Projects
Rozario Projects is building company located in Hampshire. Like most builders, the owner, Stephen Rozario, traditionally only marketed his services through word of mouth, however, he decided that he needed a platform on which to display his services, so he approached PJL Business Services to build a bespoke website. The client had taken plenty of photos over the years of all the projects he had worked on, so we took the photos, cropped and resized them, and arranged them into groups according to the types of projects he undertakes. The resulting website expresses his portfolio of services just as he wants. We currently host the website on behalf of the client, and undertake regular updates to the website for the client. 
Alfredo Michelsen

The technique focuses on the self-perception of movement and has applications in alleviating back pain, promoting rehabilitation after accidents, improving breathing, playing musical instruments or singing, and other stress-related habits. Recognising the power of the Internet, Alfredo wanted a website to advertise his services to potential customers. Alfredo was recommended to PJL Business Services Limited by another satisfied customer. After lengthy discussion on the type of website that the client was looking for, we built a prototype which was acceptable. PJL Business Services currently hosts the website in our webspace, and provides a .com web address.

The farmhouse and cottages are set in 30 acres of farmland surrounded by tall trees, fish and wildlife ponds, beautiful gardens and magnificent countryside. To market this holiday home, the owners had a website built, but found their supplier left them without support.

Greatham Village Events Committee (GVEC)

PJL Business Services has built the following websites but are no longer operational for various reasons :
The Greatham Inn

Since building the website, it was updated regularly but, sadly, the new landlord has chosen to allow the website to lapse. 
Chez Henri
Chez Henri is a 18th Century four-bedroom Longere, located in France's Charente region. The property was extensively renovated by an English couple who rented the property. In order to support the marketing of the property, the owners approached PJL Business Services to build a bespoke website which shows many internal and external photographs of the property. The owners chose PJL Business Services due to the success of the website for their other property, Chez Poulet (see below). The success of the website has been such that the property has been fully occupied since it was released onto the market. The property has subsequently been sold. 
Chez Poulet
Chez Poulet is a two-bedroomed French holiday home, located in Vaux-Sur-Mer, on the French coast between La Rochelle and Bordeaux. The house is situated on a small luxury development and owned by an English couple who now rent the property to families holidaying in the region. PJL Business Services were approached by the owners to build a bespoke website about the property and its location. The success of the website has been such that the property has been well occupied during the summer season. The owners subsequently re-approached PJL Business Services to build another website for them (see above). PJL Business Services hosted and maintained the website on behalf of the client until the property was sold recently |
Robert Parkin Photography
Robert Parkin was a professional photographer that wanted a website to showcase his Traditional Wedding Photography.

At present, the development of the property is on hold, pending the current economic climate. PJL Business Services Limited hopes to complete development of the website when the project is restarted. 
Moo Moo Cards
Moo Moo Cards was a small manufacturer of hand-made greetings cards. The company was located in a small village in Hampshire and sold its produce through local retailers. With a growing demand for the bespoke cards that this company produced, Moo Moo Cards felt the time was right to establish an internet presence, to offer their products more widely. PJL Business Services was contracted to build the website to meet the specific requirements of this customer. We also registered the domain name on behalf of the customers, and transferred this website to web space owned by the customer. More recently, the owner has wound up the business, and so this website is no longer live. |
