Intranets
An intranet is a private computer network that is used to share information and documents within a company. It’s a bit like your business’ own personal Internet, tailored specifically for you.
Businesses use intranets to communicate news to staff, store documents and company sales tools, manage projects and distribute company specific information securely.
Additionally, companies with multiple sites, or those that have offices in different countries, will find intranets even more beneficial, given that they provide a central hub from which to update all staff.
One2create’s Website Development Team have planned and implemented intranets for several clients, who have all experienced real benefits as a result.
To chat through the finer points of intranets, or to discuss an upcoming requirement, please get in touch.
Extranets
Not to be confused with intranets or the Internet, extranets are computer networks that allow restricted access from outside users for business or educational purposes – like your own private chunk of the World Wide Web.
To simplify:
- The Internet is accessible to everyone on a global scale.
- Intranets use Internet protocol technology to create a personalised company network, accessible only from within that company
- Extranets are similar to intranets, but allow restricted access from outside users.
There, much clearer!
One2create’s Website Development Team have produced multiple extranets of varying types for our clients. In all cases, they have made business operations smoother and more efficient.

As an added incentive, hosting your website with us allows us to make changes on your behalf, should you wish. We can implement your alterations quickly, leaving you free to focus on other areas of your business.

Web Analysis
Web analysis involves collecting and reporting on the traffic that’s passing through your website, with a view to improving site traffic and visibility.
In that respect, it’s closely related to SEO marketing, but in order to make changes you first need a good selection of data, allowing you to make the decisions regarding which sections of your website to alter.
It’s important to collate and analyse web data regularly; if this isn’t done, a company has no way of knowing whether its campaigns and promotions are working.
Keeping on top of the data allows you to spot trends, identify emerging niches, and gauge popularity and traffic.
As a versatile creative agency, One2create’s Website Development Team are fully capable of providing in-depth reports to precise specifications.

SEO
If your website isn’t performing as well as you’d hoped, or isn’t picking up as many hits as you’d like, Search Engine Optimisation should be your first port of call.
SEO is the process of improving a website’s visibility through organic (or natural, not paid for) search results. There are a lot of different ways to do this and it can be an extremely time-consuming process — due to the amount of trial and error involved.
There’s no set in stone, certified way to improve web presence, but there are a huge amount of techniques and tricks you can employ to make a difference. It’s all about understanding the basics of search engine mechanics and the terms you think your target audience are searching for.
Of course, this only really scratches the surface, but we couldn’t possibly give away any more of our trade secrets!
The One2create Website Development and Marketing Services Teams work hard to improve their clients’ website rankings on a daily basis and have achieved some fantastic results.

Database Administration
In order for any company to function effectively and identify areas for improvement, it’s crucial to have a well-maintained database to work from.
On a basic level, careful data analysis reveals all sorts of strategic business knowledge that might otherwise have been hidden. It shows a company what its most successful product lines are, aligns sales figures with marketing efforts, allows Return on Investment (ROI) to be calculated and highlights customer trends.
Working within our Website Development Team, One2create’s data analysts are experienced in multiple database environments and languages, including: Microsoft SQL Server 2000, 2005 and 2008. They are also adept in the design of databases, data movement, maintenance and structure.
To discuss any upcoming database projects or requirements you might have, please get in touch.
