Make the Perfect Website – By Not Being A Perfectionist

There is always room for improvement on anybody’s website – and if anyone tells you otherwise, they are lying (or just are looking hard enough). But making a website that perfectly meets your needs is not out with your reach.


The main problem many people come across when they are embarking on the journey of getting a new website is simple – too many options. The internet gives you an enormous number of options for your website; what pages should you have, should you add a video, what should your text say, how is the design going to cater to your brand and customers, should you add a gallery, how should you incorporate social media…the list could go on forever!

Welcome to the Good Website Guide

We are Vital Hike, a website design and online marketing company in Dundee. 

Over the years, we started to notice a pattern in our clients. Many of them had tried and failed to get their business online themselves, whether at the implementation stage, or due to the long-term maintenance involved, which is why they sought us out.


We have seen firsthand the kind of success that is possible through creating a business website, and marketing it effectively...

And with that in mind, we decided to create a blog to help those who are still stumbling, and to let people know what is possible with an online business!

We want to help people to avoid making costly mistakes with their websites, and hopefully show you how making a few small changes can help improve your website considerably.

Since you've found us, why not take a look through our posts, and see if we might be what you're looking for!

If you have any questions/suggestions for our team, or you think we could help you to craft a new website, get in touch today via our website contact form or email office@vitalhike.co.uk. 




Create a Fantastic Website,
