Recent Work & Testimonials
I wanted to completely overhaul our website and had been mulling this over for too long. I approached some companies who wanted to know what the turnover of my company was before quoting, which I found odd and inappropriate. Ben Vallack was recommended to me by an excellent graphic designer friend Dan Loveday (Wireeater), and I liked his proposal in terms of cost and concept. Ben basically built the framework of the site based on my very simple design brief and then trained me to use his excellent Setseed content management system. What I liked so much about Ben's approach was that, in direct contrast to other agencies I had approached, he demystified the whole web design process. Having provided me with the training and the tools, Ben was then there to respond to all of my questions very promptly and efficiently - for example sending me very straightforward video tutorials to assist me in learning the CMS. Ben provides on-going support because he has confidence in his system and knows that 'on-going support' really means answering the occasional e-mail from me. After years of agonising over how I wanted my site to look and work, Ben has assisted me in building exactly the site I wanted in a couple of months. I am delighted with the site and would have no hesitation in recommending Ben Vallack and Phototropic to potential clients.

Ben Vallack is a Genius!! Ben spent a relatively short amount of time redesigning the Shillingford Organics website and now it looks amazing. It is very easy to modify the site with lots of lovely tips and has much more flexibility than our previous site. The thing I love about it is that you don't have to be a trained website administrator to make changes as it is extremely user-friendly. Many thanks Ben.

Phototropic Productions have always been incredibly helpful and very efficient. Communications have always been prompt, and Ben has always gone out of his way to accommodate any requests or demands regarding features and functions on the website. Setseed is absolutely outstanding- it is very easy to use and alterations can be made very quickly. I would definitely recommend Ben to anyone who wants to start a website!

Websites, I knew nothing...Ben explained everything I needed to know, helped me decide and then BAM ! no. 1 on google. Works coming in. What more is there to say? Thanks Ben.
Phil Szaniszlo, The Devon Carpenter
Ben has listened to everything we have suggested to him and put together a website of which we are proud. He has positioned my site at the top in Google searches and maintained it there. All contact with Ben is always dealt with rapidly and, after entering into our third year with Phototropic, we cannot fault the service. Everything is explained in a way that I can understand. Thanks Ben, long may you continue.
