Firstly, Happy New Year from all of us at Spartan Website Design – can you really believe it is now 2018? Between all of the projects we’re working on for our existing clients, and welcoming new clients, 2017 seemed to go by in a flash!

Well, in the spirit of the “New Year, New You” mantra that seems to prevail at this time of year, we wanted to share some really exciting news that will see a slight change (for the better!) here at Spartan – We have new owners!

Our new owners currently run a marketing, branding and website design agency in Northamptonshire and have a fantastic in house team of developers, designers, marketers and account managers who are all passionate about websites, design & marketing!

Spartan will retain a presence in Exeter, offering bespoke eCommerce website services to business throughout the region but will now also have a head office in Northamptonshire meaning we can now offer more business throughout the UK, cost effective eCommerce websites and digital marketing solutions.

Website design has become a fundamental way to promote your business or market your product. With 92% of the UK population having regular access to the internet – more than ever, there is a real importance in ensuring you have an accessible platform for your clients and customers. GuruFocus, who have reported on The Office of National Statistics, outline that online sales grew by 21.3% in 2016 and over 30% in 2017 – showing a growing trend for consumers shopping online.

Furthermore, GuruFocus report that by 2018, 18% of all retail sales will take place online and by 2040, it is thought 95% of purchases will be facilitated by e-commerce. With greater choice online for consumers, it shows just how important it will be to ensure your business not only has an online shop, but that it is on a website which is easy to navigate with clear product choices and that is safe and secure to check out on. Without this, businesses will be sure to lose out on valuable business – which is vital when more consumers are moving away from the high streets and on to the World Wide Web.

With a new head office brimming with designers, developers and account managers – we’re all extremely excited at the prospect of working with a whole host of new businesses.

To our existing clients – nothing will be changing… just a few more of us which means more knowledge & expertise and more resources, making us a better agency for your businesses needs!
