Kris Miners
The Challenge
Kris has written and illustrated his own children's books - the first, titled 'Hornbeam Hollow: The Hunt for the Halloween Pumpkin' was published in 2019, and a follow-up in the series in 2020.
The client needed a new website to show his beautiful artwork and sell his books via an online shop. This modern website is quirky and fun, perfectly matching the theme of Kris's wonderful stories and characters.
Our Approach
We designed the new website to use the clients illustrations as much as possible, with large full screen banners and smaller galleries. The idea was to take the user on a mythical journey into the world of Kris Miners and his amazing characters.
The client wanted everything to be editable so we supplied a full CMS so he can add to galleries, change and add products in the shop and edit site content.
Results
The project has been a huge success in the following ways...
- Improved editing capabilities
- Better showcase for Kris' work
- Ability to sell books online
- Up to date Open-source platform

Having never had the responsibility of creating a new website for the business before, Made Simple Media could not have made it a more easier and pleasurable experience. From the initial meeting to the end product, we could not have been happier. Made Simple Media quickly grasped what we were looking to achieve in both design style and function.

Dave was so patient and understanding when it came to explaining the process and how things work. I highly recommend MSM to anyone who needs that extra help understanding the fundamentals of website building.
Matt, Land Solutions (South) Ltd
We are delighted with the quality of our new website, which has enabled us to effectively communicate our various areas of work and build an engaged and increasingly active audience. The common-sense design and easy-to-navigate structure has also helped us establish our organisational identity following a full rebrand in 2017. The support has been excellent throughout.

Due to business expansion I needed to make some amendments to a existing WordPress website. I asked Made Simple Media for some suggestions on the ideas I had and he was super helpful and came up with some great ideas to make the website perform and navigate better. Him and his team then did a great job in putting the ideas to practice and I was kept informed as the work was underway. Highly recommend Dave and his team!
Matthew Naylor, The Performance Zone
Very helpful and professional company and people. They created a trading website for us and were able to even provide the SEO back up and continuing support. The website has been running now for a few years and has increased the online sales dramatically. Very supportive with changes as required. Would definitely recommend.
