High Time for Web Design in Sheffield as Digital Region Rolls Out

The roll-out of the Digital Region initiative has numerous implications for the future of eCommerce in the South Yorkshire area – and for web design in Sheffield in particular.

Sheffield is at the core of the project, which aims to deliver superfast broadband internet access at speeds of 25 Mbps on average to both businesses and residential customers throughout South Yorkshire.

For companies with an online presence, that means it is the perfect time to look into more modern web design as Sheffield residents gain the kind of bandwidth needed to deliver graphical, integrated eCommerce sites more quickly.

Jeremy Sheehan, sales and marketing manager at Digital Region, reveals that some firms are already capitalising on the potential of the project – including some new to the region.

“The Digital Region network is increasing business competitiveness within South Yorkshire and providing a platform which allows businesses to grow, as well as attracting new and existing businesses to base themselves within the region.”

However, it is not only online retailers who stand to gain from the possibilities unlocked by the scheme, as all businesses should find enhanced flexibility in their day-to-day operations.

“Not only will businesses be able to take advantage of the superfast broadband network to allow employees to work from home to increase productivity, but they will also be able to take advantage of the latest interactive audio-visual technology.”

With this in mind, companies have until the end of the year to enlist a Sheffield web design specialist and get their online product portfolios and shopping cart software up to scratch, if they are to beat the rollout of Digital Region.

Mr Sheehan notes that many local firms have already signed up to use an approved Digital Region ISP, putting the scheme well on track for the end of 2011.

“We already have a large number of businesses connected to the network via our internet service providers, and the first phase of the network build is on schedule to be completed in January 2012.”

Ion Digital can help deliver expert web design for Sheffield businesses, whether you have a clear brand identity in place or need ideas on colour schemes, logos and so on.

We are based in The Electric Works at the heart of the city’s Digital Campus, a stone’s throw from Sheffield station – to talk through your needs, pay us a visit or give us a call.
