🌿 It's Great Big Green Week (6–14 June), the UK's biggest celebration of community action on climate change and nature.

At Pixelshrink, sustainability is built into how we work.

Our website sustainability audits help you reduce the energy your site uses and raise your credibility with visitors who care about the planet.

We're proud partners of the Eco-Friendly Web Association and offer Carbon Conscious Website accreditation.

So whether you're a research project, a university spin-out, or a sustainability-focused organisation, we can help you walk the walk digitally.

Specialist domain names are our speciality.

Some domain names are only available for specific organisations or purposes, and getting the right one matters more than you might think.

Whether you need:
• .ac.uk for academic institutions
• .gov.uk for local authorities
• .eu for EU-based organisations

…we'll handle the application, the admin, and everything in between.

We partner with you to look after your web addresses and manage all the paperwork, so you can focus on what you actually do.

One less thing to worry about.

It’s Web Designer Day!

Today we celebrate the blend of creativity, user experience, and technical expertise that goes into every great website.

At Pixelshrink, we design and build digital spaces that are accessible, engaging, and built to last, helping research projects and organisations connect with their audiences.

Here’s to the people behind the screens.

You have just 50 milliseconds to make a first impression with your website.

That’s 0.05 seconds for someone to decide if your site feels credible, clear, and worth their time.

If your messaging isn’t clear, your design feels outdated, or your navigation is confusing, you may be losing your audience before they’ve even started reading.

Our Website Evaluations uncover what’s working, what’s not, and how to improve, with clear, actionable recommendations you can actually use.

Your website is your first conversation with a potential client. Make sure it's a good one.

Today is a reminder of the importance of protecting ecosystems and biodiversity.

Sustainability and research go hand in hand.

Many of the projects we support contribute to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, from health and wellbeing to clean energy and innovation.

Our work focuses on helping these initiatives communicate their impact clearly and reach the audiences that matter.

We believe digital design can amplify real, meaningful change.

As an academic leading vital research, you're driven by more than just discovery; you're motivated by impact. The good news? The UK Government is actively seeking your expertise.

Here are 5 ways that you can influence policy by engaging policymakers and stakeholders in UK Government.

Bold thinking deserves a bold digital presence.

For Cultivate Innovation, we redesigned their website with a vibrant, confident look and feel that reflects their consultancy work in the sustainability space.

Clear messaging, intuitive navigation, and strong visuals bring their expertise to life, helping them connect with a wide range of stakeholders.

A great project name should do more than label your work. It should shape how people remember it.

We help research teams create names that are clear, engaging, and easy to share, without relying on confusing acronyms.

Remember, the right name can boost recognition, engagement, and long-term impact.
