We continued to support Mitre 10 and Flight Centre with small updates and enhancements to existing developments and launched new websites for Flagstaff Consulting, ZeroThree, Vocal Alchemy, I Love Discounts, Sprunje, NWIF, Prasino Technologies, Boxy Design, Desert Cave Hotel, Opal Inn Hotel, Readers Digest, Bet Optimiser, Gaggenau Australia, Sailing Shack, Chilarity, Tivoli Cards & Paper, iPadPreview, PHP Developers.

Social media played a large part in our work during 2011 with manmy of our web projects incorporating social media integration and encouraging interaction in various ways.

In 2012 we’re looking at more mobile development, our server stats are showing huge growth in mobile browser usage.  We’ll be looking towards a few major Enterprise developments using the Symfony framework and moving more and more of our owned hosting platform across to the cloud.  Coming up with clever social media strategies to boost our clients cut through in these markets will continue to be a major focus for us.  We also continue to focus on the latest Google changes with Places, Business Pages and Panda changes and general SEO practices.

Our fixation with the fantastic open source blog software WordPress continues as does our relationship and expertise with the OpenCart shopping cart software and we will continue creating and supporting these applications.

So that’s us!  Have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year and we’ll see you on the other side.
