Professional website development Hobart and Tasmania

We use GoDaddy to register our own domain names, and advocate for clients to register their own so this is kept in-house.

You can then add in Wakeford Digital as a delegate, which gives us access to use our technical skills to link your website to your new or existing domain.

We're here to help with the process along the way as we guide many clients through this process.

We use Webflow's in-built hosting to store the files that make up a website.

Sometimes - other platforms require you to host files externally, meaning you have to export everything manually each time you want to update your website. This opens up the opportunity for errors if files aren't organised in an appropriate way, has additional security vulnerabilities not to mention the additional cost.

Using Webflow's hosting means that that everything is managed in one place, making things simple along with using a fast and secure server.

It also enables the editor and content management system - allowing changes and updates to be made easily and quickly.

We offer a range of solutions based on what each client requires when it comes to ownership, that said most of our websites sit under Wakeford Digital's Webflow account.

This is done to reduce the cost to clients and make things as easy as possible.

You'll have access to the website via the client Editor, which enables you to do most if not all of the basic tasks you'll require to maintain your website.

If you want complete ownership, this is completely fine - we can transfer your website over to your own Webflow account giving you 100% access to the website (the only reason we don't do this for every client is that 90% of the time, they don't need to see the developer side of Webflow - we like to keep things simple!).

While we focus on website design, we can assist clients who also need help setting up an email address.

We don't advocate for one system over another, however we're really comfortable both setting up, and using, Gmail through Google's GSuite. We link this in with the clients domain so you can have specific emails. We've also found it an affordable, reliable service.

*Update: We've just written this blog post on how you can setup your own business email using your domain name and Gmail.
