For the latest in our series of Featured Business from our CQFinder community, we spoke to Jonathan, founder of Nottingham-based web design agency Roboto Studio.
Give us your elevator pitch – what does your business do?
We're the only JAMstack focused agency in the entire of the Midlands - What does that mean? - It means we build your website up to the fastest, most secure and cutting-edge specs of Web Design. It's especially powerful because we build sites to be truly performant, which in turn gives you a huge advantage of being one of (if not the most important) metric for Google to place you higher in the search results. Naturally performance effects everything from conversion rates to user experience so we consider ourselves to be the frontrunners.
Tell us about a piece of work you’ve completed that you’re currently proudest of?
We've worked with Nottingham based CTMS startup Pharmaseal for the past year and a half, and helped them to receive two feature showcase on Forestry and Hugo. The entire site is built statically but works with Forestry to allow a user to block build each and every page (allowing for an entire marketing page to be built in as little as 10 minutes).
We've especially enjoyed working with Pharmaseal because of their ability to quickly iterate, understand different technologies. We're continuing to help improve and optimise sales pipelines and develop on-top of their diverse component library.
What do you love about working in Nottingham?
We love the people, we love the culture and we love the thriving skateboarding scene - we're looking at you Flo Skatepark & Skate Nottingham.
I'm not going to turn all sappy, but I would love to at least mention some of the amazing support out there we've had from our clients and local businesses. We haven't experienced anywhere else in the whole of the UK that has Nottingham's perfect blend of locals, creative artists, musicians and big city life.
Share your love for another Nottingham creative or digital business you work with or admire.
We couldn't recommend We Are Marketable & Userfy more. The former (We Are Marketable) is an incredible SEO and marketing agency that's helped us to grow our digital footprint from a mere speck on the web to a showcased thriving agency. The latter (Userfy) have helped us to understand every last journey on the website, through a range of UX metrics and user testing.
Let us know what you’d do on your perfect Nottingham day (global pandemic notwithstanding!)
A perfect day in Nottingham, we wake up way too late, go to the Hungry Pumpkin for their incredible crispy pancetta & scrambled egg on toast, or Warsaw Diner for the "Bad-ass breakfast" (go look it up, hidden gem on the outskirts of town).
Once we're done gorging ourselves with breakfasts we'd be out in Coco Tang's upper garden area with a strong coffee. Love the fast internet connection there. Once we've packed up, if we have time, we'd gawk over the new boards at Forty Two skate-shop, we're browsing their new decks as we write this ( https://www.fortytwoshop.co.uk/product-tag/madness/) and if we're lucky we'll get a skateboarding session in at Flo Skatepark - they have the best bowl in the Midlands, shoutout to Jol! 👋
