At Sprucemoose Digital we like to make websites. The name is borrowed from The Simpsons episode where $pringfield legalizes gambling.
Every website we make is handcoded, fully responsive, and custom created from scratch. We use an open-source content management system that allows us to work the way we want to, with no compromise in design or quality.
Take a look around, if you like what you see - let us know about it!
This is the bit where we talk about all the services we offer.
Our main skillset is creating fresh, modern websites. We take some pride in handcoding these sites, we have to admit to a bit of an aversion to the sitebuilders and blogging platforms which create so many of today's websites. That's not to say we can't deal with other platforms if required - we just prefer our way of doing things.
We use Couch CMS as the backend of our sites, this lets us get on with building your site without worrying about fitting it into a CMS platform. Couch can be retrofitted into any site, and is very flexible, allowing us to create your site exactly as it was designed, and you to administer it easily once it goes live.
We're not restricted to brochure based sites, just tell us your idea/requirements and we'll come up with a solution. We've developed complex booking systems, call logging systems, corporate design toolkits, ecommerce solutions, social education applications.
It's not all about coding and designing - every site we build will have a robust on-page SEO foundation. We wouldn't claim to be SEO experts (although we know some if required), but we've had good results using our methods.

Classic Album Covers
This started a few years ago as a self-teaching experiment, to learn a few things about user interaction with sites. We liked it a lot though, and the latest version is more of a labour of love now. We still use it to teach ourselves things though - we were…
