Having messed around and played a lot of golf for six months or so, Dan was totally running out of money. As well as this rather mercenary factor, his decision to start Webster Internet was equally made by the fact that he’d created websites to keep himself entertained for about 7 years at the time and had always thoroughly enjoyed doing so.
Having started the business, it took a little while for the (beware of low-flying corporate buzzwords) Unique Selling Point of Webster Internet to appear but it all centres around creating bespoke websites which are specifically aimed at satisfying critical business objectives.
Some other Web Designers make a lot of money in a very easy way by trawling out the same sorry rubbish every day, using templates and knocking out cookie-cutter, rinse-and-repeat, one-size-fits-all websites over and over while charging the earth. We’re different here at Webster Internet. Using and implementing design principles and new technology while having a mind to approach solutions from different angles is not only our mantra, it’s also good for the soul.
In the four years that Webster Internet has been around, we’ve launched around 80 websites for an extremely broad range of clients, every thing from
Hello there, I’m Dan Webster, founder of Webster Internet.
I’ve done a fair few things in my working life so far, but none have left me as fulfilled as running this company and making exceptional websites for clients who love the websites that we build for them which then represent their companies online. It’s very easy to feel happy and satisfied when doing something you really enjoy.
When I was 19, I worked for a practice of Accountants as a Trainee Accountant for about three years. To be perfectly honest, I was probably a bit too immature at the time to realise what a good job it actually was but, one lives and learns. Years later, I find that everything I learned there gave me an excellent grounding in understanding business generally, and that the knowledge I picked up during that time about how companies operate, allows me to provide business insight where other Web Designers just provide websites.
As soon as I started putting websites together, I really enjoyed it. It’s the right balance of languages and maths that keeps my enquiring mind interested and I always enjoyed the fact that I could make nice-looking websites without design – what I saw myself doing at the time was making attractive websites only by the application of languages and maths.
All the way through my seven-year career as an IT Manager, I would use my skills to make web applications to help the companies I worked for – these web applications were websites to do particular jobs, rather than ones which are for marketing. I had never actually made a public website before I started Webster Internet but I’d made a lot of quite complex websites which filled holes in different companies’ IT infrastructure. Then when I started the business, I found that my ability in the languages and maths side was fine but I really needed to ‘up my design game’, as I was spending lots of time designing websites and less time on the coding side.
Webster Internet as an organisation is quickly approaching 150 live websites which I personally feel is a huge milestone – particularly if I look back to where Webster Internet was three or four years ago. Starting the business was extremely hard and something that I found to be totally outside of my skill-set at the time so it’s really gratifying to see the company doing so well.
