Going beyond standard web development
At Hallam, it’s not just our many years of development experience that help set us apart from other web development agencies; it’s our integrated and collaborative approach with other in house teams and disciplines. This includes working closely with the SEO team to help ensure all our sites have strong fundamental technical SEO and high performance in place as standard. We work closely with the creative and content teams on a daily basis to deliver a site that fulfils aesthetic and interactive potential.
Our approach to web development
Our approach to web development is for those who don’t accept mediocrity. It’s designed to empower you with a website that engages and converts the right kind of leads for your business and secures your market share. Every design decision is based on industry experience, best practices and, of course, the needs of your business and its customers.
Prototyping
New problems need new solutions, so we like to prototype as quickly as possible to prove that we have a working solution.
Close collaboration with our UX team, we develop a wireframe that shows you the proposed structure of your new site. This allows you to get a feel for the design and specify changes before too much time is spent on the final design. This gives us the opportunity to make sure that we’re all on the same page before coding begins.
Future proofing
Once we get down to building your website, we do so by using sustainable code that can be easily modified to extend the life of the product.
Your website needs to be fast and functional for years to come, retaining its high level of performance and scaling alongside your business. We develop websites that are specifically designed to grow and are easily adaptable to suit your changing needs, so you don’t need to purchase a new one every year.
Peer review
Every line of code we write is reviewed by at least one other developer to check that it fits within our standards and can be understood by anyone. This allows us to make sure that your website is faster, more secure, and easily scalable, so we can continue to meet your evolving requirements and expectations.
We’re always looking for new ways to make our websites the best they can be. As such, we continuously share knowledge within the team, the wider agency and the industry as a whole to ensure that we stay at the top of our game.

Our recent web development work
“It’s great to work with like-minded people who want to get things done. Our business has experienced phenomenal growth, and it wouldn’t have been possible without the website the team at Hallam built for us.”
Dean Kerry – Kerry’s Fresh
“It might sound dramatic, but the team at Hallam and their expertise as a web development agency have changed our lives – literally! Prior to working with them, our processes were very manual and therefore very time consuming. This meant we couldn’t market our growing business properly for fear of failing at the increased demand.
Hallam took the time to learn and care about our business and most importantly what we wanted to achieve from a new, improved website.”
Susan Wheatcroft – Founder, Virtual Runner
