Frequently Asked Questions
What services does Bluelinemedia provide?
Our client projects include bespoke marketing websites with unique design, comprehensive online shops with custom features and secure payment, complete end-to-end back office software to manage business processes, and everything in between. While we can provide simple websites, our speciality is web requirements that go beyond the ordinary, features that you can't find with your average template service or smaller web design agency. Software services include API integration, custom CRM, recruitment databases, membership management, hire processes, and much more.
How long has Bluelinemedia been in business?
We've been providing bespoke web development since 2001, that's 25 years of client projects as of 2026.
How do you support your clients in the long term?
Your bespoke web development is just the start of our relationship with you. Whatever your goals, we'll help you design and build the solution you need. Many of our clients have been with us for decades because we value long-term relationships. We provide web hosting, domain registration and ongoing support with a discounted hourly rate if you buy hours upfront.
Do you provide support for existing websites and legacy code?
This will always depend on the situation. While we can work with existing code, it will always take longer for us to learn and support your needs. Our preference is for our bespoke code because we can work more quickly and provide exactly what you need. However, many of our clients came to us with an existing website which we can use as a base for development, building new features where possible while maintaining what works. We also integrate with existing systems by using API to connect.
What industries do you specialise in?
Bluelinemedia clients occupy almost every industry because we provide custom web development that can fit around any requirements. Our clients have included recruitment, membership organisations, event hire companies, online learning, site maintenance, retail and sales operations, and vehicle recycling.
What is your software development process?
All our projects start with listening. We work hard to understand what you need and your overarching objectives so we can offer the most appropriate solution. We also fit around your budget and timescale, and chances are we've already developed some part of what you need. Once we know your requirements, we prefer to start small if possible, working on a viable system that gives you the most benefits. We provide an online demo version of your system so we can work together to make sure everything works as you need. And we'll keep developing your system for as long as you have new requirements.
How do you ensure the security of my business and customer data?
Bespoke web development dramatically reduces your chance of security attacks, because hackers tend to target bigger systems with large numbers of websites, like WordPress. Security features include two-factor authentication, encrypted passwords, obfuscated data fields and IP restrictions. Our hosting partner Clook provide secure hosting with mirrored servers, DBS accredited staff and physical security.
