Shaan and Margarie Oosthuizen required a compelling design for their website that would convey a sense of peace and tranquility, oneness with nature, in a modern theme. At the same time the site has to carry through a sense of the underlying zen principles behinds much of the Deeksha teaching. Due to a generouse magazine editorial sponsorship for the new Deeksha centre, the site had to go from concept to live in 3 weeks.

Specific Goblinfactory services used in the 1ness website:

What Does Goblinfactory Do?
We help businesses market their products and services over the internet and turn their websites into sales tools capable of generating constant sources of qualified sales prospects. We also incubate and invest in small to medium dot com startups.
Sound advise - getting started on a shoe-string
Pop in to see the wizards for some down to earth practical advise on starting an online dot com on a shoe-string budget and find out how to grow your idea to a point where it can attract investment.
How?
Website Design and/or Redesign
Goblinfactory can take an existing website and give it a spring-clean and polish. Or, if you've reached a point where you need to throw a hand grenade into your site, we can create a completely fresh and compelling online brand for your business. Goblinfactory designs are professional, clean and load quickly. Pricing for a complete site make over start from only £1500. (Projects usually complete within 1 or 2 weeks.)
Software Development for Dot Coms
Goblinfactory can build and manage small to medium bespoke web solutions built on Microsoft technologies entirely in-house, and projects under £50 000 are developed by Alan, Evgeny and Alexander. A strong network of professional business partners and contractors is leveraged for larger projects. Goblinfactory's director Alan has experience in assembling and providing leadership and project management on critical projects and working to tight demanding deadlines.
Business Incubation for Software Dot Coms
Without incubation starting a new online dot com can be expensive and daunting. Goblinfactory incubation can cut startup costs dramatically and help entrepenuers take their idea from seedling through to sapling, shielding the entrepeneur from having to make expensive and costly commitments before the commercial viability of the business has been proven. Once proven, many forms of assistance, including preparing for and attracting external investment are available through Goblinfactory.
Edit your website yourself with GoblinContent
Keep your website and content allways up to date with our simple to use content editing software, called "GoblinContent". With GoblinContent you can edit and create new pages for your website, using our popular online editor. The resulting pages automatically adhere to the look and feel for the entire website. GoblinContent is available from as little as £20 per month.
Goblinfactory Google AdWords "Landing Pages"
Google AdWords is "pay per click" advertising. Instead of going through the costly exercise of simply "paying" people to visit your website, Goblinfactory builds special Google AdWords "landing" pages. These are mini web page "sales pitches",designed to close a sale online instantly. Alternatively the pages are designed to solicit a "signup" or "contact us" response. These "qualified prospects" are then emailed to a sales representative for follow up.
Search Engine Optimisation (SEO)
Pay per click advertising expenses soon add up, and Goblinfactory can help you keep these expenses in check by driving hundreds or even thousands of qualified customers to your website by building websites with content that is "optimised" for search engines. A well planned "search engine" overhaul of a website can dramatically increase the traffic sent to that website from search engine referrals and dramatically reduce the amount needed to be spent on pay per click advertising.
Domain Name Research, Registration and Hosting
As part of the Goblinfactory strategy for NCIMidlands, we recommended that NCI purchase additional domain names, so that we can create "specific keyword rich" websites for online marketing campaigns that specialise in one particular aspect of NCI's business, in this case "flooring". After researching many name combinations, Goblinfactory found and registered www.office-flooring.co.uk, as well as www.office-flooring.com for NCI, a valuable domain name "pair" that was registered for only £8.50 each in NCI's own name, that NCI can immediately sell for many hundreds of pounds each if they want.

When we were setting up our historic, luxury guest house, we knew that a web-site which properly reflected Magdalene House's style and ambience was a critical component to effectively market what we are offering. Goblinfactory have captured that for us perfectly.

Goblinfactory have opened new doors for us. They have designed and hosted a fantasic website and assisted us with several marketing options that we never knew existed. What's more, we are able to monitor visitors and traffic entering our website. We are expecting 2005 to be a very progressive year, thanks to Goblinfactory...

As a design agency Cold Soba is very much client driven, and a fundamental aspect of providing a quality service is ensuring we meet all deadlines come what may. Cold Soba chose Goblinfactory to work with as we have already used them for web hosting. On the occasion Cold Soba used Goblinfactory we were impressed by the way they integrated with our design team. Goblinfactory were able to host and build a fully functional website with nothing more than a gif and a verbal brief to work from. They took time at every stage to consult with the team here at Cold Soba to ensure the site they built adhered to our original design template and to our client's wishes. We would undoubtedly consider Goblinfactory in future projects of this nature.
