Tell them a little about us

Metaware is Stuart Hodson and Matthew Mawdsley, two degree graduates who have grown weary of the template, "your logo here" style of web design. Established in the Summer of 2006, it is our primary goal to offer an alternative to this trend.

We specialise in the following technologies, both for creating new products and maintaining and updating older ones:

  • PHP/Perl
  • GNU/Linux
  • XHTML
  • MySQL

Our knowledge is not limited to these, we have experience with other technologies, but the above is where we focus ourselves.

What can you expect?

When you hire us you get a friendly, professional team who you'll work with throughout the design process, from inception to delivery. We'll listen and respond to your thoughts and ideas to produce something that will fit your needs exactly.

Our standard service includes:

  • Complete involvement - we provide designs concepts to give you an idea of the look of the finished product, hold regular meetings updating you on our progress, and use your input to shape the project.
  • No cruft - We implement only the features you need, keeping the cost and development time low.
  • Maximum compatibility - We don't believe in locking out potential customers with unnecessary gimmicks when good design practise can ensure your product is visible to all.
  • Accessible design - We work to comply fully with accessibility guidelines and legislation, testing the product at all development stages. We use assistive technologies and recognised software tools to validate our work.

Prices are scalable due to the unique nature of each project, the amount will vary depending the estimated development and testing time, as well as overall complexity.

If you have any queries please feel free to contact us for a quote. Please remember to include a rough description of your project, detailing any specific features you require.
