When our client approached us to redesign TSWTR for an upcoming, significant version 3.0, they wanted more than a pretty new theme. The entire user experience was up for review too!

TheSmartWayToRent.com follows best GUI practices; taking the property listings from private landlords and niche lettting agents and puts them all on a big Google map. Simple!

Check out some of these amazing highlights:

  • Easy to use GUI integrates in system’s context menu
  • Powerful filters to quickly narrow down results to just the ones that match what you’re looking for.
  • Mobile friendly and Facebook integrated for out-and-about flat/ house hunting.
  • Neighborhood, and commute overlays help tenants decide what area to live in.

  • Runs in all popular web browsers
  • Many More features are waiting to be added!
  • Follow us on Twitter or sign-up to our newsletters for latest news

What people are saying

“Only bad thing about this is it makes me realize all the time I’ve wasted clicking back and forth between windows trying to find a place to live. Seriously best time saving idea ever. The search filters, social sharing tools and Google Maps GUI with street mapping built in make tenant search and house hunting easy”.

And YES, it’s valid, compliant, seo optimised, the works! We do Blog and CMS templates too (including Blogger, Hot Property CMS and WordPress). All projects include free 14-day post-delivery support. Strict Non-Disclosure Policy.

Here’s what we do

  • Convert PSD to HTML / XHTML and CSS
  • Convert our designs to high quality, cross-browser compatible, valid XHTML / CSS markup.
  • We’ll give you PSD files for 5 pages and we require high-quality, cross-browser compatible W3C Valid XHTML / CSS markup.
  • High level W3C Valid table-less XHTML 1.0 Strict with SEO Semantic Coding, Complete Presentational Separation and Load Speed Optimization.
    Compatible with IE, Firefox, Chrome, Safari and others.
  • Design: Flexible width layout to be resized based on browser width.
  • Horizontal Alignment: Center
  • Vertical Alignment: Top
  • Footer at Bottom: The footer area will always be placed at the bottom of the browser, even if there is little content.
  • Compatibility & Accessibility options: Markup to be compatible with Internet Explorer 6. Internet Explorer 7+ compatibility should included by default.
  • Dreamweaver Compatibility: Allow your markup to be editable in Dreamweaver.
  • WAI 2.0 / Section 508: Ensuring that users with disabilities can access the information presented on the web page.
  • Microformats: This approach is intended to bridge the gap between markup tags and the actual information they contain. Allows anyone to make the information published easily sharable and searchable.
  • Implement Rollovers: Add dynamic rollovers for links or menu elements
  • Non-web Fonts: There are non-web fonts in the design and we prefer to keep the text editable maintaining the original look without using images, using Cufon or Sifr
  • Preferred coding type: W3C Valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional
  • Commented Markup: Mark the structural blocks in the markup and allow us to have the ability to edit it.
  • Optimized for Load Speed: The size and quantity of images should be optimized by choosing different compression methods for each image and using CSS Sprites techniques. The quantity and final size of CSS and JavaScript files should be optimized as well.
  • SEO Semantic Coding, Complete Presentational Separation: Implement the coding that uses SEO-valued tags to underline the most important parts of the content (H1, H2, etc.). Emphasizes content positioning techniques, moving the most important parts of content to the top of the page code. This improves page readability for search engines as well as various browsers with disabled or limited CSS.
  • Implement SSI Templates: Helps to maintain code. The code will be divided into several logical parts (files): navigation, content, header, footer, and more. These parts will be included in the main file using SSI.
  • Commented CSS version: Css3.0+ allows using less images and creating simple html structure, which increases the load speed and makes html even more semantic.

This free guide will give clients an overview of search engine marketing services, as well as an explanation of why ethical SEM gets better ROI in the long term. Search  engine marketing (SEM) are techniques to promote websites by increasing their visibility in search engine result pages (SERPS) through the use of pay-per-click, contextual advertising and search engine optimization (SEO).

WARNING: Hiring the wrong SEM company could score an own goal!

Many use outdated methods, which could damage your websites reputation, violating search engine guidelines and increasing bounce rate.
Clients should get involved from the outset!
Make sure you get the best possible results from a SEM campaign by working closely with your consultant; imparting your valuable insight and industry knowledge to ensure your search engine marketing consultant clearly understands your goals.

When should you hire a top SEM consultant or company?

It’s a good time to hire an SEM consultant if you’re considering a website makeover or a new website. This makes sure you get off to a good start with a search engine friendly website design.

ATTENTION Buyers Beware!

  • Do you know what precautions to take when hiring a Search Engine Marketing Consultant or SEM?
  • What to if your SEM advice turns out to be an expensive waste of time?
  • What do you do if your link building campaign does more harm than good?
  • Are you helpless in the hands of a search engine marketing company which takes your money but fails to deliver measurable results?
  • Are you victim of unsolicited emails from SEM companies guaranteeing top spot on Google?

Be realistic about your marketing budget but avoid low-balling

Budget considerations are very important these days. Some SEM consultants and SEO specialists might cut corners to work within your budget. I dont recommend this practice because under investment means there is a real danger of your campaign failing to meet your goals and business objectives.

Clearly define your web marketing strategy and target audience(s) and be specific! It’s surprising how often we receive vague objectives from our clients. So we’d encourage clients to work with the consultant to clarify these points right at the start of the project.

Get your free quote for search engine marketing. What should clients look for when hiring a SEM expert? With a little care, many problems can be avoided. Before you sign a contract or hand over your money familiarize yourself with how search engines work. Ask yourself if the service you are buying is really what you are looking for and how much you can afford.
Think carefully about how you are going to measure the results. Do not be persuaded into hiring Search Engine Marketing services on the spur of the moment. Do your research first.

Tips to find the right SEM marketing professional

  1. Look for a SEM consultant or company with experience in your industry
  2. Ask for examples of previous success stories
  3. Ask questions if something is unclear and get everything agreed in writing
  4. Ask about goal setting, measurable expectations, budget and timelines.
  5. Ask if they follow Google Webmaster Guidelines?
  6. Agree the format, content and frequency of a formal reporting structure?
