Website FAQs

Some common questions about website design and development

What platforms do you build websites on?

We favor different frameworks depending on scope. Some favorites include:

  • Webflow (nocode) for marketing websites.
  • Shopify (either as Jamstack headless or native) for e-commerce websites.
  • Laravel for full-stack web applications.

Beyond this, we've used almost all major frameworks for many years and we can adapt to your specific requirements.

What is your experience in the industry?

We have been in the web industry since our inception in London in 2004, working with clients ranging from small start-ups to large multinational corporations. Our team consists of professionals who bring together a wealth of experience in digital strategy, web design, development, and support. We've handled projects across various sectors, which gives us a broad perspective and understanding of different market dynamics.

What is your web design and development approach?

Our approach is user-centric and data-driven. We begin by understanding your business goals, your audience, and your competition. We then create a design that is not only visually appealing but also enhances user experience and engagement. Our development process is agile, allowing for flexibility and iterative improvement. We focus on creating websites that are responsive, fast, and search engine friendly.

Who do you recommend for hosting?

There are different considerations depending on the type of technology used and what the intended scaling factors are. We generally have three types of host that we pick between:

For custom software and sites with advanced functionality we have used Digital Ocean for dedicated servers for many years and love their combination of reliability, modern server technology and great support when needed (although they're self managed).

For Nocode websites we like the Webflow platform which uses Amazon Web Services (AWS) as its hosting backbone.

For Jamstack websites we're big fans of Netlify and Vercel.

What factors most influence a successful ecommerce website

Creating a successful eCommerce website involves a wide array of deep considerations. At Magnet, we understand that the success of an eCommerce site is influenced by a combination of critical factors, each contributing to the overall user satisfaction, engagement, and sales conversion rates.

What are the different types of developers on your team?

At Magnet, our team comprises a diverse array of developers, each specializing in different areas of technology and software development. This variety ensures we can tackle a wide range of projects, from web and mobile applications to complex system integrations and data analytics solutions.

How does Magnet pick a target audience

From identifying your target marketing to segmentation and feedback loops, we continually optimize audience targeting.
