testimonials

Maria initially designed and built our website, subsequently looking after its continued running and updating including its interface with emails, social media of various forms and the differing technical requirements depending on whether it is being viewed via computer or mobile phone. Crucially she understands how search engines work and how their searches can be optimised to highlight your website. On a personal level she is easy to understand and able to communicate technicalities clearly and in lay terms. Maria is willing to go the extra mile, research new ideas or issues, often spots issues and contacts you ahead of time and is always available to help. We have worked together with Maria for over a decade and would strongly recommend her services.

I was recommended to Mdsign who have created two websites for us over many years. They are extremely helpful & patient, taking great care to design and deliver a website where the attention to detail is second to none. A website is the window for any business; Maria is very knowledgeable in her field, I cannot stress enough the care she puts into her work, she goes above & beyond to get the right feel & frontage for the business, her suggestions & ideas in helping to get the best search results and the time she painstakingly adds to getting it right is a credit to her.

Therefore, we highly recommend Mdsign to design your website at a cost you will be very pleased with.

Thank you Maria for all the time and effort you have put into my website. I am absolutely thrilled with the end product. With many images in my design, Maria spent hours finding the perfect one for each caption. Maria is professional and understanding and her attention to detail is amazing.

Would definitely recommend her.

Yet again Mdsign has created a fantastic website for us! This is the second website that Maria has designed for United Network Technologies and I would highly recommend her. Unlike other website companies we have used in the past, Maria takes the time to understand your company and the story that you want to tell with a new site. When we were not sure how we wanted the website to look, Maria spent a vast amount of time coming up with various ideas for us and even mocking up the design on a test site so instead of us having to imagine what it looks like it was there on the webpage.

Exceptional from start to finish.

Maria has redesigned various websites for us and nothing has been too much trouble. She’s friendly, personable and really understands her clients’ requirements. We’re very pleased with our websites. They are clean, clear, tidy and current. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.

We are thrilled with the Hidden Gardens website.

Maria at Mdsign understood our brief and came up with creative ideas about how to present the information so it was simple to follow and easy to update. Her thoughtful approach made it a painless experience. The finished result reflects the character of our event – it’s colourful, fresh and fun.

Thank you very much.

I was having great difficulty finding a website designer until a friend of mine suggested I try Maria from Mdsign. Right from the start Maria understood what sort of website I wanted to create and she was able to give me an accurate idea of how much it would cost me. I felt confident that she knew what she was talking about and that she could deliver a bespoke, professional looking website within budget. Maria exceeded my expectations. She has been a pleasure to work with and has created the website I wanted, quickly and within budget. I would thoroughly recommend her services to anyone.

Firstly Thank you Maria, we are so pleased with our new website. From the first phone call I knew Maria was the one to create our new website. Her knowledge, her creativity and her passion came through the phone! Throughout the project it was a pleasure to work with Maria ensuring every detail was discussed and understood along the way. Nothing was too much trouble.

We ended up with all our requirements met and so much more. Since launching our site Maria has been a great support to us.

We have been using the services of Mdsign since 2003 for our web hosting, email hosting and web design, as well as Mdsign’s design services for our company stationery, advertising and promotional material.

We have always been impressed with both the technical ability, as well as innovative and creative design ideas proposed by Mdsign.

Having found Maria quite by chance she has proved to be a fantastic asset and most valuable source of information and advice. She is most approachable and gives you her honest opinion in plain English. To date nothing has proved too much trouble for her, and I am quite a demanding nuisance at times. Thank you for all your help and continuing support Maria.

Maria, we can’t speak highly enough of your services.

From our initial introduction – which came by a recommendation made by one of our suppliers, and an existing client of yours – we had complete confidence in your ability to capture our vision. You were incredibly quick to grasp the nature of our industry and really helped steer the creative side of the site to get the aesthetic just right. I’m sure we were quite demanding as clients go (that’s designers for you!) and were especially grateful for all of your patience during our build.

A truly fantastic service.

Will Shaw
Director

Maria has been a most amazing person; she is so professional and creative in her work which for our churches, was to totally revamp our website. She went above and beyond our expectations – keen to perfect everything she did, to learn and understand more about us so that she could make our website authentic, exciting and eye-catching. Five stars don’t do her justice – 10 stars do! Thank you Maria, our website is far better than we ever expected!!

Having had two websites constructed by Maria at Mdsign over the last eight years, this is the easiest testimonial I have ever had to write as I can only report good things.

Her knowledge of the industry is impresssive and she is up to date with all the current trends and available devices enabling her to build you a great website.

Her work and attention to detail has definitely helped grow my business and, with her constant support, I feel confident of continued success.

Her ability to understand and interpret my flimsy ideas into a strong and coherent design is her great asset as is her patience!

I would strongly recommend Maria and Mdsign to anyone wishing to create a professional ‘shop window’ to help grow and expand their business in this increasingly ‘digital age’.

I really enjoyed working with Maria at Mdsign on our new Website project.

She was friendly, professional and liked to keep things on schedule, which is good for me.

She was also creative and had lots of ideas, but was always interested in my thoughts on how best to project the company image that I really wanted for Jordan Environmental.

Essentially, I always felt that Maria’s main motivation was not so much the commercial success of the project to her, but was to create a finished product that Jordan Environmental could be proud of and that she could be proud of also!

Maria from Mdsign was recommended to me by a client of ours which lead me to make contact. We had survived with a homemade website since we opened the business and now that we are well established the old website did not portray us in the right light.

Right from the start Maria grasped what we were looking for in a new website and came up with some brilliant ideas. Due to the business being so busy I had very little time to dedicate to the new website, Maria was extremely patient and understanding. A basic layout and idea for the website was drawn up for us to view and work from. We provided Maria with the content and some images for the website and Maria set to work on the website. What Maria designed for us was very creative and had very little input from us.

The changing over of our old website to the new was extremely complicated and we would never have done it without Maria’ guidance and patience, Maria knew exactly what she was doing and made this really quite simple.

Maria really did take all the hassle out of producing a new website for us. We are extremely pleased with the finished results of the website, it looks extremely professional with some very personal touches.

I would recommend Mdsign without hesitation. Thank you Maria and we look forward to working with you closely as our website and business evolves.

Over the moon with our renovated website George Margarson Racing, we gave Maria an idea of what we wanted and no stone was left unturned to ensure we got across the messages and look we wanted! It was great working with Maria on the site I’m almost sad its over!

The Wickhambrook website is provided to the village by the Parish Council in conjunction with Maria Sumner of Mdsign. Maria has done wonderful work re-vamping the whole site with easy links to follow for more information on every facet of life in the village. A huge vote of thanks must go to Maria for the hours of time and attention to detail that have made this a really interesting site to visit. If you have not done so already take a look – you are sure to become a regular visitor to the site once you have done so.

Maria has operated a website for Wickhambrook Parish Council for almost 10 years including a major re-design and update some 4 years ago. The site covers all aspects of village life – the Surgery, the School, Community Groups and Sports Clubs, Churches, local walks, history, etc – and emphasizes forthcoming events e.g. Wickhambrook Fireworks, Over 60s Christmas Party and Flu’ clinic.

The website is of particular importance to the Parish Council because parishioners and the local Press need to know what has been decided at the monthly meetings. An agenda is published the weekend before the Thursday committee meeting and the approved minutes are published the day following the meeting. Everyone knows what has taken place and if there are areas of concern parishioners can raise them at the following month’s meeting. I am always amazed how attractive and vital a website can be and this is entirely due to Maria’s skill and enthusiasm.

After changing ownership at Happy Days in August 2016 we wanted to update and create a website that reflected how we had changed with the times.

Maria has been fantastic in helping us with this process, even when we had difficulties with the changes in technology. Our new website has made us all excited with how we interact with both our existing and potential parents.

We are looking forward to growing our business and improving our skills!

Thank you.

Mdsign created our original website; we were very pleased with the extra business generated.

The reduced expenditure on advertising has resulted in significant cost savings.

In 2016, Maria redesigned our website to make it more user-friendly for tablet and mobiles. The updated website has been well received by new clients from France, Switzerland and Germany. Maria has also guided us through the new GDPR, Cookie and Privacy policies.

I thoroughly recommend Mdsign for Website Design, Registration and Administration.

Maria helped set up my new website which was not a straightforward task as I had a number of unusual requests which I wanted built in.

I had already used GoDaddy and WordPress for an earlier website but I was unhappy using it without the technical knowledge to amend the site to my own requirements and keep up to date with all the current legislation. I therefore needed professional help to start again and oversee it for me.

Maria proved to be especially helpful and her depth of knowledge was excellent. I am very pleased with my new website.
