Website creation, Phuket and Thailand<\/p>

Platforms built to bring you business.
Not just websites.<\/h1>

Since 2007 we have run franco-media.com, a trilingual media platform that lives on search traffic. We build the same kind of tool for serious businesses: designed with care, structured for Google from the first line, and judged on what it returns.<\/p>

What you get<\/p>

A platform designed around your customer’s search, your booking flow and your margins. Typography, colour, interface, speed, structure: nothing is left to chance, because every detail either earns trust or loses it.<\/p>

Fixed quotes. Payment by stage. One person accountable from the first call to the handover.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>

A website is a page on the internet. A platform is a tool that works for you every day.<\/h2>

The difference is not the software. It is the thinking before the first screen is drawn: who searches for you, what they need to see to pick up the phone, and how the site keeps earning that visit month after month.<\/p><\/div>

<\/span>

Return first<\/h3>

Every page has a job: a booking, a call, an enquiry. We design for that job and measure it, so you know what the platform brings in.<\/p><\/article>

<\/span>

Search built in<\/h3>

Structure, speed, wording and content planned for Google before design starts, not added afterwards. Articles that rank are part of the offer, not an option.<\/p><\/article>

<\/span>

Craft in every detail<\/h3>

Typography, colour palettes, interface, user journeys, accessibility. Visitors cannot name these things, but they feel them, and they decide in seconds whether you are serious.<\/p><\/article><\/div><\/div><\/section>

Recent builds<\/p>

Three of our latest platforms<\/h2><\/div>

Each one started with the same question: what does this business need the site to do? Open them, click around, judge for yourself.<\/p><\/div>

What we build<\/p>

Businesses where the website has to earn its keep<\/h2>

We specialise in hospitality and tourism in Thailand, where a booking lost to a slow page or a confusing form is money lost that night. The same method serves any business that needs durable visibility.<\/p><\/div>

Hotels, resorts and villas<\/h3>

Direct bookings instead of commission: booking engine integration, rate and availability display, chat and WhatsApp, multilingual pages for the markets you actually sell to, and content that ranks for the searches travellers make before they book.<\/p>Talk about your hotel<\/a><\/article>

Restaurants and spas<\/h3>

Reservations that work on a phone in ten seconds, menus and treatment lists that stay easy to update, Google Business and map presence tied to the site, and the local search visibility that fills tables and treatment rooms on quiet days.<\/p>Talk about your venue<\/a><\/article>

Tour and activity booking platforms<\/h3>

Catalogue, dates, availability and payment in one flow, built to sell directly rather than through marketplaces that keep the margin and the customer. Structured so each tour can rank on its own.<\/p>Talk about your platform<\/a><\/article>

Other serious businesses<\/h3>

Clinics, real estate, galleries, schools, professional services: any owner who needs a long-term tool for visibility and enquiries, and wants a developer who thinks about the business before the pixels.<\/p>Tell us about your project<\/a><\/article><\/div><\/div><\/section>

How we work<\/p>

Six steps, fixed quotes, no surprises<\/h2>

You see the architecture before we design, the design before we build, and the finished platform before it goes live. Each stage is paid before it starts, so there is never a dispute about what was agreed. Count on two to three months from the first call to launch, depending on size, languages and how ready your content is.<\/p>

Hosting and software are chosen to keep your running costs low: you own the domain, the hosting account and the site. No lock-in, no rent on your own tool.<\/p><\/div>

  1. 1<\/span>

    Audit and architecture<\/p>

    Your market, your competitors’ search presence, what your customers type into Google, and the structure that answers it. One site or several, which languages, what each page must do.<\/p><\/div><\/li>

  2. 2<\/span>

    Design system<\/p>

    Typography, colour palette, components and page layouts, approved on screen before a line of the site is built. Your brand, applied with discipline.<\/p><\/div><\/li>

  3. 3<\/span>

    Build<\/p>

    WordPress, built properly: fast, secure, easy for you to update, with bookings, chat and payments integrated where they belong.<\/p><\/div><\/li>

  4. 4<\/span>

    Content and search<\/p>

    Page copy, titles and descriptions written for people and for Google, in every language you sell in. Articles that bring the right visitors, month after month.<\/p><\/div><\/li>

  5. 5<\/span>

    Launch<\/p>

    Speed and security checks, redirects from your old site so nothing is lost, Search Console and Google Business connected, then the switch, with the old site kept as a safety net.<\/p><\/div><\/li>

  6. 6<\/span>

    Handover and support<\/p>

    Your credentials, a recorded training session, and a defect support period after launch. Then you run it, or we keep looking after it for you.<\/p><\/div><\/li><\/ol><\/div><\/section>

    Before you write to us<\/p>

    We are not the right fit for every project, and we would rather say so now<\/h2>

    A good platform takes thought, content and time on both sides. If what you need is simpler than that, there are cheaper and faster options, and we will happily tell you so.<\/p><\/div>

    We do not build<\/p>
