DeType is a leading web design agency in Kettering, Northamptonshire, that specialises in creating high impact websites for estate agents.
The thought of creating a new website can be daunting. You need to ensure that your agency stands out in your local market but do you have the money and resources to create a site that will put you ahead of your competitors?
We prove to our clients time and time again that you don’t need a huge budget or a full in-house team to create a site can have all the functionality you need and that your visitors will love. We take the resources you have available and turn them into a beautiful, high-converting site so you can get back to what you do best – selling homes.
Our team is made up of expert designers and developers with years of experience in the industry as well as the passion and drive to stay on top of latest trends and tools, so your website is always running at its best. We have been partnering local estate agents as well as national PropTech companies such as PropCo and CheckDocs for over 10 years.
“When you run an SME in an industry that is extremely competitive and fast paced, it is always a challenge to dedicate enough time to your virtual window. In our case, 6 years raced by without any real overhaul of our website. In 2022 we set about a “refresh” that really turned into a full website update, enabling us to include some technologies that help us to stand out from our competitors.”
What we do:
Web Design
With years of experience in the property industry as well as helping develop leading PropTech products, we combine our sector knowledge with best practice across the web industry to ensure your site delivers the leads you need, and looks great in the process.
Web Development
Our expert developers live and breathe code, building outstanding, fully responsive websites that look great on any size screen, whether that’s desktop, mobile or tablet. Added to this, we integrate property feeds and payment systems to automate your property management, saving you time and money.
Web Maintenance
We’re with you every step of the way, from planning and implementation to launch and post launch plans, we’ll keep your website performing month after month. The web is ever changing and we can keep you up to date with security and performance as your business grows.
Web Hosting
We know how important it is for estate agents to have a site they can rely on so all our sites are hosted on fast, reliable UK servers with 99.9% uptime and 24/7 customer support. You can rest easy knowing that your site is always there for your visitors.
SEO
It’s a competitive market out there for estate agents, which is why all our sites are Seach Engine Optmised (SEO) because we know just how vital it is for any business that wants to succeed online. Ranking highly on search engine results will bring relevant and high-quality traffic to your site.
Video
We create exciting animations that can liven up your website, bringing an extra layer to your storytelling, helping you engage with your audience and setting you apart from your competition.
