After a short break over the Summer, our monthly social networking event we are back up and running in Builth Wells this evening at 5:15pm (The Lion Hotel).

Our solution was to develop a brochure website styled around the existing brand imagery and colour scheme.

The website is fully responsive (adjusts to all mobile and tablet sizes) and outlined all key services provided by the firm. 

Dolls and dragons were looking to move their business online; they required a flexible commerce system to house their product catalogue of toys, games and children clothes.

Once up and running, they would need a system they could maintain on a weekly basis, both for marketing products and itinerary management. 

Welcome to the first of a series of round-up articles, keeping you in the loop of what is happening over at PixelHaze Academy, our training and support website covering everything related to Squarespace. We will also be creating regular tutorial videos (Tech Tips), watch this space…

Following on from an exciting rebrand which included a new name for the 30 year-old dance charity, Powys Dance, we helped the team to redevelop the website to match the new look. We also needed to transfer all content from their existing Squarespace website as part of the process.

Website plugins are 3rd party code or apps that can integrate with your Squarespace website. Plugin categories include text and menu styles, countdown timers, galleries and pricing tables. Some of our favourites include the Lightbox Anything plugin and the range of Facebook messenger and comments plugins. 

The Fountain Inn is a traditional 14th century public house located in the heart of the small market town of Builth Wells. To coincide with a rebrand project, we were asked to develop a new website for the high street.

As of July 1, the Squarespace Blog App no longer works on any devices where it was installed. Squarespace removed the app from the App Store in early June but all is not lost, the functionality is being moved over to fully fleshed-out mobile apps for iOS and Android.

We were contracted to create a new website for the building company, accompanied with a short photo shoot covering some of their recent developments in Mid Wales.

We worked alongside the brand designer to create an overarching theme for the website and marketing toolkit for Cardiff-based startup, Blend Telecom.

(Updated for 2019). Choosing the correct e-commerce platform is often critical to safeguard the future of your online business, however it can also provide a major headache as there are so many options available.

We are delighted to support the ‘turn the 3 towns pink’ campaign in aid of Cancer Research UK.

Roots Rugby is a social touch rugby club for all ages to be launched on the Groe in Builth Wells, Mid Wales on May 6th. We are very excited to be at the heart of bringing this weekly event to our home patch.

How this achievement could be a good sign for other market towns in Mid Wales….
With my hometown (Builth Wells) hat on it could be easy to look South with more than a little envy. The rural town is rich with history, is just a stones-throw from Monmouthshire and the A40 and with established, well-known local brands. You can certainly see why it is an appealing prospect.

Copywriting for Squarespace 7 can be daunting for those starting out. My first recommendation would be to think about getting a good balance between paragraph content, bullet points for key messages and photography/illustration.

Measure twice, cut once… How to get a great website breif in under 45 minutes. I am a Squarespace specialist and therefore many of these tips have been extremely helpful to me when building websites on that platform.

We have been receiving increased enquiries from clients asking about adding the Facebook messenger chat plugin, the great news is that it can be setup in no time with Elfsight Apps.
