What our clients are saying about us …
“Over the last 6 years, I have dealt with Sue Rutherford and her team, including Judy, Dee, and more recently Brendon and Christopher.
From the start Sue displayed the standard of service delivery, commitment, integrity and professionalism that I aspire to embody in my business as well. And from her leadership, her staff seems to reflect equally impeccable standards.
In the 6 years I have not had one moment of dissatisfaction, only consistently enjoyed helpful, thorough and efficient service. An absolute pleasure and a winning formula!“
~ Nicky Taylor, Cape Villa Collection
“Working with Sue and her team at The Forge Web Creations Madeleine and I got way beyond what we wanted in terms of delivery. The visuals are stunning [thank you Sue] and the patience and kindness with which Christopher taught us how to use the website was awesome. We are thrilled with the result as are our many friends and clients who have visited us since we went live last week.“

“I did quite a bit of research on designer companies when I decided I wanted a kick-ass website. It didn’t take me long to come across The Forge – they are renowned for delivering websites that attracts attention. Christopher and the team did a fantastic job. Not only did they create a website that functions exactly as I wanted it, Chris also provided me with excellent practical training on how to manage my site on a daily basis. I love my site and all my clients love it too. It showcases my work in a way that makes it impossible for prospective clients not to want to contact me. Thank you, The Forge – through your impressive efforts you really have forged a long term relationship with Hannalee Photography.“

You have created an excellent web page for me, beyond my expectations and for a small business like mine it helps enormously. It’s an eye catching classy design and I found everyone at The Forge very helpful and polite. Thank you all.“

“We have found The Forge to be a fantastic partner in the design and development of our two websites. They were so professional and expert in their advice which was especially helpful when communicating from overseas. Their appeal would be their friendliness, their readiness to provide a service that was above and beyond our expectation and their speed of response gently encouraged us to complete the web sites to amazing results together. We recommend them highly and look forward to doing business with The Forge again in the future.“
~ Mary Harrison, 35 Strathmore & The Majestic
“I want to say how delighted I am with the website you have created for us for Sea View 10 Monte Carlo Camps Bay. I had no hesitation in contacting Forge when we decided that the old website was in need of an up date as I had seen what you had done for us on Cape Stay-and the constant enquiries we now receive via them. Our new website is tasteful , cool colours and clear layout and gives a very accurate impression of our apartment. Chris created it within a very tight time scale and was a constant source of expert advice. He answered all queries with courtesy and his help has been invaluable..“
~ Shona Grant, Seaview – 10 Monte Carlo

We are getting a lot of leads for jobs so I would say it is definitely paying off. Your service was great , response time exceptional and your manner very accommodating.
The layout and art work has been well received with many comments from the public , such as , “we wouldn’t expect such a beautiful website from a building company coming to mind.
The seo work has been effective and I see more presence every time I search.”

“Creating my new website with Forge Web Creations was a breeze. The design team definitely know what they are doing . Communication was easy and smooth and whenever I made suggestions, they were taken on board and acted on promptly. I am very happy with the finished product and every week I get compliments from people who have visited www.retreatbb.co.za and comment on the attractiveness of it.
I have also asked them to do my seo support for me as I am not up to scratch with using the computer so I am looking forward to seeing a significant difference to the number of visits to my site. And hopefully to the number of heads on beds.!!!
Thank you to all who had a hand in creating this vital communication tool for me!!“
