Chris Rutterford
“The new website that Clooti Web Design created has brought a huge amount of new work to us. Brand new clients have found us through simple web searches, and our murals and artwork are exceptionally well displayed within the site. The Clootis have been extremely receptive, thoughtful and flexible when we need changes made, and best of all, we can add any new content ourselves, whenever we want.

The Clootis provided us with a set of website instruction manuals when we first began working with them. Several years later and I am still using them when I can’t remember how do something that I haven’t needed to do for a long time. The manuals have excellent illustrations, are really straightforward and helpful, and they continue to be incredibly useful in tweaking our website ourselves.”

What more could anyone ask for when dipping a toe into the virtual world.”

Moyna Flannigan
“When I approached Clooti I had a very particular idea of the look I wanted for my website but not a clue about the technology. Clooti took my brief and to my delight designed a website for me which was just what I was looking for- it’s elegant, clear and easy to use. Their questionnaire was an important part of the process, focusing me on the features I really wanted from the website and giving them a much clearer idea of my ideal design. Elaine and Rachel were wonderful to work with, patient about explaining the language of website design, accommodating changes, and, they got the job done on time. I highly recommend Clooti as website designers. ”

Moyna Flannigan, Artist

If I get stuck, they always have the patience and good humour to explain things & guide me through what I want to do.
I know I can always call on Clooti to deliver what is required very quickly and at a more than reasonable price.

Our website looks and works exactly as we wanted it to.”

Tracy Briggs, Caspari Foundation

Nicola Murray – Artist
“Clooti give you more than they say on the tin—namely a highly tuned sensitivity to your individual aims and priorities, the ability to translate technospeak into plain english with patience and humour and a speedy response to all communication. As an independently minded visual artist it was a big decision for me to employ web designers to build my new website; I deliberated for a while over how much sense it made economically and aesthetically.
I’m pleased to say I am delighted that I decided to use Clooti. The process felt quite creative and collaborative and—despite the endless work of getting content together—it was sometimes even fun. There’s absolutely no way I’d have ended up with a site like it left to my own devices. I’d heartily recommend investing in their expertise.”

Shazia Mirza – Comedian
“It has been a great experience working with Clooti.
I don’t know why anyone would go anywhere else.

I vaguely knew what I wanted for my website but I wasn’t sure. Clooti came up with some great ideas and allowed me to change things till i was happy with what i wanted.

They had great ideas and suggestions and created a site for me that is self manageable and easy to use. They created instructions for me to mainatin the site my self, and add things as I wanted. I now have a striking, bold and classy site, that looks like a lot more than I paid for it!”

Shazia Mirza, Comedian and Columnist

Clare Lydon
“Clooti are a crack web team.
They offer great personal and superlative after-care service, they were at the end of a phone to perform life-saving emergency surgery within minutes. I can’t recommend them highly enough – I heart them.”

Jan Bee Brown
“The Clooti Girls really saved my website! When I moved up to Edinburgh in 2013 my website was dysfunctional, its original designer had gone AWOL and the host was grumbling. I was about to apply for an important National Museums job opportunity but my web presence was tatty and inconsistent – I needed a drastic makeover and quick. Terrific word of mouth led me to the 6th Floor of St Margaret’s House where the Clooti Girls sorted me out at the double and at a price I could afford. They held my hand, mopped my brow, I did get that job and I continue to update my user-friendly website blog regularly. I continue to appreciate their customer support and good humour and recommend them highly.”

Jan Bee Brown, Curator and Designer

Moody Monday
“Leave it to the experts” couldn’t ring truer in relation to websites and Clooti. I was armed with a limited budget and a tight deadline when I knocked on their door, and they delivered a great accessible website for me on time, which they’ve constructed so that I can maintain it myself with minimum confusion. They were very approachable yet professional, efficient, extremely helpful and knowledgeable, and no problem are ever too big or small for them! They see things through from start to finish, offering great value for their service. Great gals to have your website needs entrusted to. Clooti is the booty!”

Eliza Kesuma-Ballingall, Moody Monday

Classic Camper Holidays
“Getting our website absolutely right was vitally important for the success of our business. Being primarily an online business, often times the website is all prospective customers will see. It was therefore key to make sure that we successfully conveyed our brand and key messages clearly and in a way that differentiated us from the competition. Clooti have been fantastic in helping us explore these issues, coming up with ideas and ultimately building a highly professional, clear and easily navigable website. Clooti have also been great helping us incorporate changes to the site as a result of customer feedback to help us streamline the bookings process and make the customer experience even better.”

Mark Tuckwood, Classic Camper Holidays

Edinburgh DTM Blog
“I contacted Clooti as my website was starting to look a bit tired. After discussing what was required Clooti did a great job in both tidying it up, in the “behind the scenes” SEO stuff and creating my blog. The result was a significant increase in clients. I can’t recommend Clooti enough”

Colin Gordon, Massage Therapist, Edinburgh DTM

Fiona Maher
“I had thought about getting a web-site for some time and was fortunate enough to meet Rachael & Elaine in person at a social event. From the initial consultation through the development phase I felt there was real empathy and understanding for my work and I was kept informed and involved at all stages of the process. I’m delighted with the finished results – within days of the site going live it has already helped me secure an exhibition opportunity and seeing my work presented this way has given me a new confidence – I can wholeheartedly recommend CLOOTI web design services.”

Fiona Maher, Artist, Sculptor, Arts Educator

Tansy Lee Moir
“I had a fair idea of the way I wanted my site to look and feel, but absolutely none about how to make it happen. Clooti took the time to work out exactly the best type of site for me and guided me sensitively and expertly through a clearly defined process. This ensured that in just a few weeks I had a superb site and the skills to maintain it myself. I’d imagined getting a website to be difficult and complicated – Clooti made it easy and I wish I’d done it sooner! Thanks.”

The fact that I can update & edit content easily and quickly without great technical knowledge, expensive software or telephone assistance is brilliant, and exactly what I was hoping for. It is clean, stylish, minimal and very easily navigable. I’m very very happy with it, it’s perfect; many thanks!!!”
