The three C’s of website development

March 17th, 2010

We wanted to share with you three aspects of web development that are important for every website project.

Clarity

Make sure that you have a very clear picture of what you expect from your web developent company. It even helps to draw sketches to share your ideas with a web company. Clarity focuses you and the company you choose to work with on a single goal and ensures that you are achieving your outcomes. To place your complete trust in a web company without providing them a clear list of objectives can lead to a bad experience – even if you are working with the best web compnay in the world.

Content

Content is King on the internet. Make sure that you write up the content on your website thoughfully, considering the end user of the website and how they will read your content. If you are not a confident writer consider using a copy writing service to make sure that your website engages the people visiting.

Customisation

Most website on the internet today use some form of content management system (CMS). This means that you are limited to the boundaries of that CMS to create your content. However at Sesalos we can adapt a CMS to achieve your objectives. This is important in order to make sure that things work the way you need them to. Deciding on what customisation you need will depend entirely on the flexibility of the CMS you use and the competancy of the development company you use.

We hope these three ‘C’s’ are uselful to you.

Nibs van der Spuy Records ‘a House across the River’ at Sesalos

March 10th, 2010

Nibs van der Spuy is back in the studio doing finishing touches to his upcoming release, ‘A House across the River’. Nibs has chosen Sesalos studios in Westville, Kwa-Zulu again as his recording base. This is where he recorded his critically acclaimed, ‘Beautiful Feet’ 2006 and ‘a Bird in the Hand’ 2008 with engineering/producer guru Brent Quinton.

Nibs records at Durban Recording Studio, SesalosNibs work very closely with a trio on this album using his old friend Gareth Gale (drums/percussion) and Kieran Smith (bass/cello). Continuing with his name being recognised in the ‘Nu Folk’ movement in many territories, Nibs hasn’t been afraid to stretch his boundaries into the Americana, English Country and Country genres. This can be heard on his cover of Tim Buckley’s ‘Cripples Cry’ an unreleased Buckley gem only seeing the light with his ‘Live at the Folklore Centre 1967’ release. Besides a trio version of the Allman Brother’s ‘Little Martha’, Nibs has written all the other compositions dividing his fingerboard prowess between his Acoustic, Puerto Rican 10 string Cuatro and Electric guitars.

The subject matter deals with lost dreams and opportunities, thirsting for the past and carbon copying the spirit of youthfulness and re-living it all over again.

Special guests will include;

  • Piers Faccini
  • Guy Buttery
  • Farryl Purkiss

‘A House across the River’ will be released in South Africa in April, followed by Europe in June on the 2 FEET label.
