Why choose Webgloss Web Design for your business website?
Portsmouth Internet design Hampshire

Many Internet design companies do not stay in business for very long. It is therefore wise to choose a web design company that is well established.

Our web designers in Hampshire have been designing business web sites for over 10 years and with this wealth of expertise we can get your business online quickly whilst making the whole process easy for you. Choose a less established web design company and you may find that they no longer exist when your web site needs updating.

We are a team of web designers and programmers based in Gosport near Portsmouth & Southampton on the South Coast in Hampshire. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the area, we are nestled between Fareham and Portsmouth, just down the road from Southampton.

Our web design & hosting company was established by Jane Renfree and has grown to become a company with clients who have been trusting us to look after their business websites for many years. We are computer programmers as well as web designers. Jane has a long history of programming and systems administration experience - she began as a Cobol mainframe computer programmer and spent 15 years programming complex statistical systems in Oracle RDBMS on Sun/Unix boxes.

Check out why you should choose Webgloss Web Design in Hampshire for your website design & hosting - our FAQ page lists everything you should be considering when choosing a web design company together with information for organising your site content when planning your new website.


Professional & affordable - you can be online
for a £20 domain fee plus your first month's package fee!

We'd like to create a draft design for your site which takes around
7 working days & there is no obligation - so why not ask for one?


how to arrange for your business website to be designed

Decide what you would like your web pages to convey about your company. Your website needs to contain sufficient information for potential clients to give you the edge against your competitors.

Think about the main topics for your site and calculate how many separate pages you will need. Our websites are charged according to the number of main pages so you'll need to know your website budget as well. Check out our packages page to view our charges.

Then, if you'd like us to design a draft for you with no obligation please just give us a ring on 02392 360528 or fill in our online form. Either way we'd be delighted to hear from you! Feel free to ask us questions or just phone for a chat - you can be sure that the conversation will be devoid of 'techie talk' unless you specifically ask for technical information! You may also email us direct at by clicking here.

If you do decide that you'd like us to design a draft web layout for you then we will ask that you email us sufficient information for just a single page draft design. This may then be viewed between 7 to 10 days later with no obligation and should enable you to decide whether you would like Webgloss Web Design to create your full website for you. There is no charge for a draft design.

we design sites specifically for the Google search engine We make Google friendly sites
so that people can find you online


Webgloss concentrates on optimisation for the Google Search Engine. This is by far the most popular search engine in the world and many other search engines take their listings from those indexed by Google.

We also follow the rules set by Google and do not believe that cheating is necessary to achieve a good position within search engine listings.

We create well designed, genuine websites which have been optimised for Google and never use tactics such as hidden text which could jeopardise our clients' search engine positioning if discovered. Many firms will charge you large amounts of money just to 'submit' your site through the 'free submissions' service on search engines.

Webgloss will submit your site by hand to the major search engines for no extra cost as it is included in your monthly package fee. The code behind your website will be re-optimised on a regular basis to ensure that your site has the best possible chance of being given an excellent position within the Google search engine. Recommendations for changes to content will be sent to you for approval prior to being implemented. Many web design companies charge extra for this service and are unable to offer the excellent results that Webgloss achieves.

August 2010: Television viewing increases despite rise of internet and social media

Predictions that the internet would kill the television star appear to be premature. Just as the cinema survived the advent of home video, TV is booming despite the growth of digital media and popularity of social networks such as Facebook and Twitter.

Viewers watched an average of three hours and 45 minutes of television a day in 2009, 3% more than in 2004, according to research published today by the media regulator Ofcom. TV continues to take centre stage in people's evenings, boosted by the popularity of shows such as The X Factor, Britain's Got Talent and Doctor Who.

Television's popularity has also been boosted by digital video recorders (DVRs), now in 37% of households – and the introduction of high definition television, now in more than 5 million UK homes.

"Television still has a central role in our lives. We are watching more TV than at any time in the last five years," said James Thickett, director of market research and market intelligence at Ofcom.

New technology offered viewers an enhanced, easy-to-use viewing experience, with 15% of all viewing time spent watching programmes recorded on to a DVR, he said.

August 2010: The Many Dangers of Cloud Computing

As an emerging technology that promises great cost savings, cloud computing is gaining fans among a broad array of businesses. But do these firms really know what’s inside the opaque, puffy concept of clouding computing?

Cloud computing allows companies to outsource part (and sometimes almost all) of their computer processing. Instead of spending on in-house servers and (in the view of CIOs) the surly IT pros needed to service them, businesses simply pay an external provider. They then access their computing infrastructure over the Internet – “though the cloud,” in IT-speak.

Better still, cloud vendors tell us, cloud computing is massively scalable. The big box retailer handles a holiday rush with a quick online request for more computing capacity. The growing small business without a big data center can leverage the heavy-processing muscle of a cloud provider.

Seeing gold in them hills, big players have launched divisions to provide cloud computing. The leaders include Amazon’s EC2 and Google App Engine. In the excitement, the acronyms are multiplying. Cloud computing’s near cousin is Software as a Service (SaaS) – software delivered over the Net – and Salesforce.com touts a version of cloud computing called Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS).

IT pundit Nick Carr hails cloud computing, in his book The Big Switch, as the inevitable next step in business computing. Just as we now access electricity from huge external plants, he explains, we will access computing power from sprawling external processing facilities. Messy in-house data centers are passé. The future is bright, well ordered and reasonably priced.

But Carr’s analogy falters when you look at the difference between electricity and data. There’s nothing confidential or sensitive about the wattage that flows into your business. But there’s something profoundly sensitive about the data that flows in and out of your business.

Merely whispering the phrase “Sarbanes Oxley,” with its labyrinthine compliance requirements, is enough to make some CIOs shudder at giving a cloud-based provider even partial responsibility for their document management.

Making those CIOs even more anxious is this uneasy truth: as it evolves, cloud-based service is increasingly provided by a chain of providers. So you’ve contracted with an outsourcer, who in turn contracts with a series of outsourcers, and on and on – and this global crowd of unknowns is handling your most precious corporate secrets.

It’s like the pretty girl in high school who doesn’t want to give out her phone number, except she shares it with her steady sweetheart, the football captain – who keeps his address book posted on his Facebook page.
