Bit of Web Design History
1999 – Our first big website was Mantradance. It was a site for the dance events that were taking place in North London at the end of the ’90s. The site featured DJ profiles, photos, audio download and even some video. We also made a couple of Flash based audio-mixing games for the site. Within the site we had a section on the way the events were themed and a blog section for keeping up to date.
2000 – Another early highlight was making the first IsItVeggie.com website. This site had up-to-date listings of the food manufacturers and supermarkets and showed which products were vegetarian and vegan. It took about a year to develop and some companies were more helpful than others. At the end of 2001 the site had 30,000 page impressions a month – quite something for the time. It still exists.
2001 – Our coolest site of the early 21st century had to be Where’s My Hair Productions. This underground music label based in Hampshire presented a hotbed of talent featuring some signed and some un-signed DJs, artists and producers on a series of CD releases. This one is gone now.
We made our first Rathayatra UK website in 2001 and are really happy to be still involved with the site and the event in central London. This website has evolved from a basic information and picture archive to its second-generation content management system. Users can volunteer, donate or link to their Facebook page.
2002 – We had the privilege of designing the first ISKCON.com and helping with DeityWorship.com in 2001 and 2002. These web sites have grown up and followed their own evolution to the point that ISKCON.com became a full-fledged news website in 2004.
From 2001 up to 2007 we worked with the Oxford Center for Hindu Studies (a recognized center of the University of Oxford). Along with designing and developing the web site and content management system (CMS) we were involved in creating the fund development programme. This site is now run and managed by OCHS in-house staff.
2004 – We loved making and developing the first Atmarama.co.uk website in 2004 and ’05. This was a complete new direction and featured mind, body and spirit event listings, information pages on many alternative therapies and approaches to life. There was an a-to-z of crystals with detailed photographs. This site was closed and the domain passed to a new owner.
2006-2007 – Worked for Pembrokeshire Association for Voluntary Services (PAVS) as community website developers. Commercial work on hold at this time.
2008 - We focus on commercial work nowadays but there is some charitable and other work as well to keep a healthy balance.
