A brief look at the current landscape of web design in Milton Keynes.
Web design in Milton Keynes has a thriving creative and technical community driving excellent online web solutions. Here we look at how the web design scene in Milton Keynes has changed, looks likely to develop and will help ensure Milton Keynes has a strong online marketing offering for a wide variety of clients.
Web design and established marketing agencies in Milton Keynes
Milton Keynes has boasted a number of larger established creative agencies for many years. Throughout the nineties a number of creative businesses emerged and quickly established themselves providing excellent print and brand solutions.
Many of these agencies have moved with the times and adapted their services to provide web design in Milton Keynes. This has ensured that knowledgeable, creative designers and marketeers have applied their skills to web design and joined forces with web developers to offer the best of both worlds. This represents the history of Melon, with a team of experienced creatives and strategists who have migrated over time to deliver outstanding web design with a sure footing in effective communication techniques.
New web design and development talent
The ever expanding city of Milton Keynes has come of age with a new generation of Milton Keynes based talent emerging. Many talented people have moved to the city since multi-national organisations have switched head offices to Milton Keynes. Families have settled and young creative and technical talent has emerged with a hunger for making their mark.
Add to this the increase in web design opportunities and the expense and lifestyle impacts of commuting to London and it's no surprise a lot of this talent has chosen to live and work in Milton Keynes.
Many of these talented youngsters have chosen to set up their own businesses, either as freelance web designers and developers or as small web design agencies with like minded contemporaries, often with complimentary skill sets. Communal facilities, with rent sharing have been set up as creative hubs and communities and groups have emerged to help support other similar web designers in Milton Keynes.
A growing client base demanding outstanding web design in Milton Keynes
Milton Keynes continues to attract new businesses including large corporate organisations. With a forward thinking approach and attractive premises, local facilities and transport links, Milton Keynes ticks a lot of boxes for business decision makers.
With this growing and thriving business community comes a need for leading edge online techniques and web design solutions. Where possible it makes sense to work with a local company and as such web design agencies in Milton Keynes have enjoyed the spoils of this success.
In addition to more traditional marketing requirements a number of online businesses and e-commerce businesses have emerged. Entrepreneurs have set up web orientated businesses and have been able to utilise the talent base available in Milton Keynes.
Web design in Milton Keynes and it's impact on London business
Milton Keynes is conveniently placed for a number of nearby towns and cities. With excellent transport links and a central position, nicely placed near the midlands, the south east and cities such as Oxford, Northampton and of course London. This ensures web design agencies in Milton Keynes are perfectly positioned to service the wide range of lucrative opportunities available in London.
Our experience is that London web design agencies are often more expensive but don't necessarily merit that inflated price tag. With higher rent and salary expectations it's no surprise to see these higher costs, but with Milton Keynes being only 40 mins from Central London by train, clients should look outside of the city to the range of talented web design agencies in Milton Keynes.
Improvements in broadband speeds and fibre
Milton Keynes has enjoyed confident advances in the connection speeds available. We posted a blog which attracted a lot of interest on the subject of high speed broadband, (see: Milton Keynes gets high speed fibre trial) some time ago.
For some time Milton Keynes was falling behind which was stifling the web design community and it's need for high speed connectivity. More recently faster connection speeds and fibre upgrades have enabled super fast broadband and with it improved the productivity of web designers and developers in Milton Keynes.
Improvements in technology and Internet connections also continue to enable more advanced and media rich web designs and applications. Over time we anticipate the current boundaries will lift further and opportunity for online development will become virtually limitless.
Milton Keynes will soon have 4g for mobile web browsing
In a world demanding ever improving and faster ways of browsing the web it's no surprise we will soon be enjoying broadband speeds via our mobile networks. Whilst not large enough to be included in early 4g roll outs, Milton Keynes won't be far behind.
We will soon be enjoying faster mobile browsing and with it improved opportunities for day to day businesses processes. Likewise web designers and developers in Milton Keynes will be able to experience and adapt to faster speeds for mobile website design.
