What is Artificial Gold?
Our search stats show that many people find
our site when looking for synthetic versions of the transition
Metal "Au". If you are then I suggest trying elsewhere! Similarly
if you are looking for Artificial Football Pitches in Sheen or
Linda (that was always the strange one, she had the first phone
number before us!!). We are however an IT business specialising in
Microsoft technologies to drive commercial enterprises.
Established in 2004 as a company to create simple websites
for small businesses, Artificial Gold has now expanded its role to
specialise in fully functional web projects and web services.
The first office was a bedroom above a sports club in Earlsfield,
London. Battersea Ironsides Sports Club may not be the home now but
Artificial Gold is still a sleek, nimble organisation with minimal
overheads.
We have employed staff in India for 3 years and this strategy is a
large part of the reason we can be so nimble. We have employed
numerous developers, designers and search engine experts. These
have worked on our projects and helped us price them so
reasonably.
In more recent times Artificial Gold, along with the Managing
Director, Andrew Metcalfe, has relocated to Burnham-on-Crouch in
Essex.
From this new base we hope to build more great websites for
clients, with clients as a partnership and some for us to run
ourselves. We are also hoping to expand our .NET capabilities with
more Windows Forms projects following other recent successful
requests from clients.
We aim to become a successful IT brand within Essex and
beyond.
But what's with the name?
Sir Isaac Newton, considered to be one of the most accomplished mathematical physicians, was also obsessed with something peculiar apart from scientific theories and Calculus-Alchemy. Hidden away from the public eye, Newton toiled for years-experimenting and penning thousands of manuscripts-to transmute lead into gold, or Artificial Gold.
Fast-forward to the 21st century e-world where artificial can mean electronic and gold is money. Welcome to the world of electronic money.
At Artificial Gold, we understand that for any
website, the yardstick of its performance is sales. Along with
creating a strong brand identity, we work relentlessly to generate
greater sales for our clients' websites everyday, helping them turn
prospective leads into sales into money, or Artificial Gold!
The truth...Andrew Metcalfe has an admiration for Isaac Newton and
needed to get a solid brand name. After hours searching for a
domain name Artificial Gold was decided upon. Having had to help
choose many other brand names since we can imagine this story is
more than familiar for many people!!
I have recently been using 2 separate job sites for various reasons. When trying to get my main website rebuilt in Umbraco (a .NET CMS system), I investigated a few options. The main 2 I thought would be interesting to … Continue reading
I have had very few problems whenever I have done this.
3.5 actually runs as 2.0 in IIS so really the 3.5 things are extras.
Give it a crack and compile, should be fine.
