Our Website Development Services
The Internet is a powerful business tool, and companies that aren't making the most of their Internet opportunities could be losing business.
IT Solutions offers several website services to help your business:
  • Website Design & Development
    At IT Solutions, we can help you bring a new website online, or update an existing website so that it represents your company and products more effectively.  We can also enhance your site with new features - such as a shopping cart system - so that you can sell your products online.  We also offer graphic design services, so if all your website needs is a facelift, we can help.
  • Intranet Development
    Creating websites that run on your companies internal servers is an excellent way to provide new software to your employees.  Often, similar functionality to that offered by traditional Windows applications can be provided to your users via an internal 'intranet' website.
    Intranet sites can frequently be developed more quickly and deployed more easily, enabling you to provide new software to your users in less time and for less money.
  • System Integration & Web Services
    Another compelling use for the Internet is to allow you to integrate your company's systems with those of your partners and suppliers.  This can be done through the use of 'web services', which allow your systems to communicate with other systems safely and securely over the Internet.   
    Web services can offer significant improvements to your business processes through faster workflow and more up-to-date information.
  • Website & Email Hosting
    Through our partnership with one of Europe's most reliable website hosting companies, we are able to offer website and email hosting to our clients.  The servers used to host our websites (including this one) are monitored 24 hours a day.  We're also able to register and administer website domain names on behalf of our clients.
We have many years of experience building websites and Internet services.  Whatever your requirements, we're sure we'll be able to help - just get in touch via our contacts page.
The Tools We Use
IT Solutions builds websites using Microsoft ASP.net and Visual Studio 2005.  ASP.net enables us to create complex and powerful websites very quickly.
Together with SQL Server, ASP.net powers some of the most popular websites on the Internet, including Dell.com Myspace.com and Microsoft.com.
The Technology We Use
All of our websites are developed in ASP.net using Visual Studio 2005.  The code that runs the websites is written in Visual Basic.net or C# running on the .net framework version 2.0, and database services are provided by SQL Server 2005.  As with our Windows applications, we can work with previous versions of the .net framework or SQL Server as required.
Other technologies used in building our websites include:
  • HTML, XHTML
  • Javascript
  • Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)
  • XML, XML Schema, XSLT
  • Adobe Fireworks and Photoshop
Our Internet websites are hosted on Windows Server 2003.  Intranet sites and web services are typically hosted on our customer's servers, running on Windows Server 2000 or 2003.
We're able to offer development services to produce any of the following:
  • Internet, Intranet and Extranet Sites
  • XML Web Services
  • Class Libraries
  • Enterprise Services Hosted in COM+
Our projects frequently require a mixture of the above technologies, which can be seamlessly integrated to provide you with a powerful, functional, and reliable website.
