HeadRed recently undertook the task of redesigning the University of Warwick Science Park’s website which is an online business information portal consisting of 100 pages offering business support, property information and services offered by the organisation. HeadRed were chosen as the company commissioned to revamp the site after the Science Park were impressed with the previous websites produced and after the new build, Tom Blount from the University of Warwick Science Park said that “Head Red was recruited in order to ensure our website was brought up to date and provided visitors with the type of information they needed in an easy to access format – and they have done a fantastic job.”

You may think having a satisfied client would be enough from a project but the design for the Science Park not only impressed the client but also produced further benefits since HeadRed have acquired work from several new clients due to the relationship.

Our director, Liam McGurk, said that being given the job of redesigning University of Warwick Science Park’s website has proven “to be an extremely fruitful relationship for us” and based on this work we are now providing other companies with some of the “wide range of services we provide such as search engine optimisation, web design and development, ecommerce, corporate branding and graphic design.”

About the extra work commissioned by other clients because of this job, Tom said that it is “great news that they have been able to pick up additional business and provide some of our clients with valuable services.”

Following the success of both the University of Warwick Science Park redesign and the work undertaken for the other clients landed due to that redesign, HeadRed have now expanded their Coventry SEO team so that they can continue offering quality products and services to both their current client base and also new clients.

It’s been nearly two years since we last updated the look of our website!!!

So the team decided it was time we dusted off the magic markers, sharpened our code-base and combined the two to form a brand new all-singing all-dancing website!

The new site has been brought right up to date with a highly stylised new design, multiple (Ajax) animations and above all else, relevant information on the highly-creative projects HeadRed work on a day by day basis.

Not only that, our fantastic clients have thrown their two pence in giving their thoughts regarding the level of service they receive and we’re happy to say, it’s all been extremely positive!

We’re all very proud of the new site, but we welcome your thoughts, opinions and feedback.

The HeadRed Team

The whole team at HeadRed would like to say a big welcome to our new SEO Manager, Paul Thewlis.

Paul joins us from British transport institution, National Express, where for the last 2 years he worked as their E-Communications Manager. During his time client-side, he actively managed National Express’ online presence, improving their visibility through both paid and organic channels.

Paul possesses a wealth of hands-on SEO knowledge and is even a published author with his book on blogging and social media, “WordPress for Business Bloggers” - available in all good bookshops now.

Welcome to the team Paul!

The team at HeadRed would all like to say a big congratulations to PHP developer, Paul, for the arrival of his new baby daughter, Jessica, earlier this month. So far it all sounds like plain sailing with jammy Paul getting over 6 hours of sleep each night. Now back in the office following his paternity leave, Paul has a spring in his step and a smile on his face, but just how long will his luck hold out? 

Plus, it seems like the kids are catching us up. With Jessica’s arrival that makes 11 HeadRed offspring compared to our 12 full time team members. All we need to do now is train them up and we can all retire early – no pressure kids!
