We are enormously proud of our involvement with the many arts and heritage organisations for whom we've worked over the years. For examples of some of our work in these sectors visit either the Arts & Culture Portfolio or Heritage & Tourism pages.

Salvo offer a complete service from conception to site launch and understand the unique challenges facing arts and heritage organisations when procuring and maintaining digital services.

If you are interested in developing a website or multimedia offering for use in this sector it may be reassuring to know that Salvo have hands-on experience of the following...

Accessibility and Outreach
Salvo websites are fast and highly accessible to ALL users, complying with the major accessibility standards. Furthermore, we ensure that the design and underlying architecture of all our projects is carefully customised to specifically meet the needs of the defined target audience.

Design & Branding
Unlike many digital design studios we also have professional experience in publication design, typography, advertising and brand development. While most clients already have core branding elements in place we have the skills to integrate those into your digital service or, if necessary, to conceive branding strategies from scratch.

Funding and Grant Applications
From the Heritage Lottery Fund to small local trusts, Salvo can assist you when making grant applications and ensure that all specifications comply with the requirements made by your funding body.

Online Marketing & Audience Research
Search engine registration and optimisation, email marketing advise and fulfilment, the creation of 'viral agents', advice on working with traditional media - we never forget that a beautiful website needs to be seen. Visit our marketing services page for more.

Interactive Online Services
Chatrooms, discussion boards, live feedback programs and user-contribution publishing systems are just some of the ways we enable users to interact with our clients and other users. Often the most popular areas of a website, interactive systems provide the two-way communication many would consider the medium's defining characteristic.

Content Management Tools
Dealt with in more detail on the website admin page but perhaps worth mentioning again. We are leading specialists in the creation of easy-to-use, cost effective content management systems for websites of all sizes, allowing clients to maintain as much or little of their site as they wish directly via an online control panel. Of particular benefit to many arts and heritage organisations where regularly changing programmes of events, exhibitions and projects make quick, ongoing site maintenance essential.

Flexible E-commerce Solutions
From simple, secure order forms to complete 'shopping basket' systems we can provide just the perfect e-commerce solution at a surprisingly realistic cost. See e-commerce services for more.

Copy-Writing & Editorial Expertise
We work in IT; we're literate - not necessarily a contradiction in terms. We've written everything from technical manuals to magazine articles and advertising copy, if you need it we can do it. Copy-editing and proof-reading services are also available.

Translation & Localisation
We offer a full range of translation and localisation services. Fast, cost-effective localisation can be provided to Spanish (including most South American variants), French, Italian, Russian and Arabic. Translation to most other major languages is also available via our network of trusted freelance experts.

Research & Asset Acquisition
Thorough research is a hallmark of our work on many projects over the years and you can rely on Salvo to locate, edit and post-produce material in all media. If third-party assets (images, music scores, video etc.) are required we provide a complete service to identify and source all such material. Salvo can also negotiate and manage asset licensing on your bahalf.

Ongoing Support & Training
We pride ourselves on creating systems that require no technical expertise or programming knowledge. However, to get the most out of any system training is often beneficial. We can provide a flexible training program for all our projects and offer free ongoing support during the life of your website.

A Genuine Love of history, culture and the arts
It does make a difference!
