Crossbow Interactive

Web design and development from Halifax

Based in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Crossbow Interactive says it has been building websites since 2003. The firm describes itself as a small team with a shared passion for web design, working for clients who want their business online. It argues that a good website needs graphic design, programming and clear communication working together, with design that captures attention and content and functionality that hold it.

Sites of every size, plus upgrades and repairs

Crossbow builds websites ranging from a few pages to mid-size, static and larger enterprise sites. It also upgrades dated sites that need a refresh and repairs broken ones. Its services run across web design, development, hosting, maintenance and security, so that a client can keep the site running after launch. The firm mentions Drupal among the platforms it works with.

Plain language and a referral-led practice

The firm says it avoids unnecessary technical jargon and gives clients the information they need for business decisions. It meets clients in person when that suits them, or talks through a project informally before quoting. It says most of its work comes through referrals, and that it aims to become part of each client's team. Its goal, it says, is to give businesses a fresh image online, one that visitors remember and return to.
