-- Trusted Vendors: Web Design & Branding --
If you need extra help with Web Design, SEO, Design, Branding, or Ecommerce, there's a member of the Jagged Social team that can help you out! Alex Perkins' Shire Web Design and Sam Stirling's Obese Aesthetics are our recommended vendors for Web Design and Graphic Design / Branding services.
I have worked with these guys for years (as a customer / client!) and are the only providers that I fully trust to help you with your journey!
Web Design: Shire Web Design
Alex Perkins is a friend and colleague from the publishing industry who went on to create a BRILLIANT web design company (Shire Web Design) – specialising in beautiful websites that convert.
As a former illustrator, Alex has a world-class eye for design... his websites are some of the best looking and easy to use in their respective industries.
I've followed Alex's journey from the very beginning and he is my personal go-to expert for anything related to Web Design, SEO, Google Map packs, or Ecommerce. Highly recommended!
Design & Branding: Obese Aesthetics
When I launched my first YouTube channel, I needed help with the design / branding / motion graphics – Sam Stirling's Obese Aesthetics (design agency) was recommended to me by a friend...
Sam's team did an incredible job with the branding and motion graphics for my YouTube channel, which went on to gain over 100K subscribers. Sam knew exactly what I wanted and executed the project flawlessly ❤️
I've continued to work with Sam and his team over the years for subsequent projects, as both a client for his services and as an advisor for their social media strategy. As a happy client and customer, I can recommend Sam's services with absolute confidence!!
GoFullPage (Chrome Extension)
The GoFullPage Chrome Extension is a brilliant tool for capturing full web page (screenshots) for your research projects.
This is a tool I use often for capturing a snapshot of YouTube channels or researching websites or sales pages, as the plugin gives you the FULL page as a PDF or PNG download.
VERY handy!!
Sort Feed - Instagram & TikTok Explorer + Exporter (Chrome Extension)
The SortFeed Google Chrome extension is a tool that I return to often! This browser plugin allows you to sort TikTok & Instagram Reels and Posts by likes, views, creation date, & more. Also, export data to Excel, CSV, or JSON.
This is very handy / useful when you're researching competitor's content as it clearly shows what type of content is working / connecting with the audience.
WordCounter Tool
On YouTube it's best practice to title your videos with 50 characters or less!
I use the free WordCounter Tool website to quickly and easily figure out the word count for my titles.
Thumbs Up (Title + Thumbnail Preview)
The Title and Thumbnail of a YouTube video is critically important for a video's success.
Thumbsup.tv is a great free online tool that allows you to upload your thumbnails (and add a title) to see how they would look on the YouTube platform.
The tool has options for Light Mode and Dark Mode, and also shows your Title / Thumbnail in different contexts, such as the Sidebar or Homefeed.
