A quick guide on what makes a good website

There are many different aspects, which when combined, work to produce what most would consider a good website. Some may be a matter of opinion, such as the overall design and the graphics used across the site.

How Small Retailers Can Save Money on Security Measures

For smaller retailers with a single shop or several distributed in a chain across Exeter and throughout Devon, security is always a concern. Losses due to shrinkage, as it’s sometimes politely referred to in the trade, is a single-digit percentage of sales, but it cuts steeply into profit margins when heavy price discounting is necessary to compete with bigger brands and the rents aren’t getting any cheaper either.

While the idea of spending money on prevention is sometimes difficult to stomach when retail is struggling, avoiding losses and being able to seek recompense from anyone...
