Site migration

An often overlooked aspect of launching a new website is the redirecting of your old webpages to your new webpages and so avoiding a negative impact on your search engine rankings. If this step is missed there is a high chance that any search engine rankings your site has hitherto achieved will be wiped out and set back to zero. It is like moving your shop from one part of town to another without letting anyone know.

TESTIMONIALS

The Allies Group worked with us on the redesign of our website and we were very pleased with the final result. Finding a company to deliver what you want can be a task within itself, but after getting in touch with multiple companies, we were confident that the Allies Group understood our business needs and brief. We now have a fully optimised website that our customers love and has increased our conversion rates!

The website stats and income uplift are fantastic, the new site and the work done in the background has made a real difference to us. And it’s been great to work with a team that doesn’t treat you like an idiot just because you can’t write website code. You guys are a breath of fresh air, transparent and an absolute pleasure to work with. I look forward to continuing to work with you on SEO and the dreaded GDPR project.

Digital Allies has worked with St Bees School since October 2017 when I first approached them to design and implement a new website. Following its successful launch, they were then subsequently engaged to design, implement and manage the school’s digital marketing strategy. At every step of the way, the Digital Allies team has listened carefully to ensure a full understanding of our needs, kept me informed of progress and offered their advice and suggestions for adjusting the digital campaign, all whilst ensuring the biggest ‘bang for our buck’. All members of their team have been unfailingly helpful, proactive, polite, patient and quick to respond to enquiries. Importantly, they have also ensured that the process is kept as simple as possible. It is a pleasure to work with them and I have no hesitation in highly recommending Digital Allies as a forwarding thinking company combining in depth expertise, great ideas and innovation with a superb level of customer service.

Allies Group have been involved in the delivery of two very significant projects for our branch – the launch of a new website and our Trust Cayman magazine. We have been very pleased with the outcome of both these projects and the feedback we have received from members and industry colleagues alike has been extremely positive.

In all the years that White Hot Communications has relied on Allies Group to support clients' needs, we have been continually impressed by their professionalism, attention to detail, and permanently positive attitude. Debi Coldwell's years of experience in her field, coupled with a sunny disposition and good sense of humour is a sure-fire recipe for success!
