That is very important for both SEO and the user experience since Google considers both the structure and content of a website when ranking it for search. So mock-up and map out a design for the website – a process that is referred to as “wireframing” by designers – and run it by a couple of friends or a web design agency Basingstoke,  to ensure that it is intuitive and makes sense.

Making Tax Digital: What you need to know

In just over six months’ time, the government’s new digital system for submitting VAT returns will go live. The first step in the Making Tax Digital initiative, which aims to help businesses keep up with their tax obligations more easily, the system for VAT returns comes into use on 1 April 2019.
