A website that carries the value of Awaji Island further.
Awaji Island is an important origin for Clickmark. In 2015, we opened our first Japanese base in Sumoto as kreativ.jp, and we continue to operate an Awaji office today. Whether a business needs to communicate its local character, welcome visitors from further away, or make everyday updates easier, we bring purpose, information, design and practical technology together around the work that matters.
We welcome conversations at our Awaji office, through our Kobe headquarters, or online.
When a business needs its local character and its reason to be chosen to come through clearly.
A well-established local business and a business hoping to be discovered from further away both need useful information for a first-time visitor. Before changing the appearance, we clarify what the business needs the website to communicate now.
The character and story behind the business are difficult to understand online
We organise the offer, the people behind it, the value of visiting or choosing it, and the next step so the reason to choose the business is clear.
Booking, buying or making contact still feels harder than it should
Beyond hours and access, we make it easier to understand what is available, how to book or ask a question, and what happens next.
The current site is difficult to keep current
We look at who updates news, products, case studies and seasonal information, then choose a CMS and workflow that can be sustained.
Understand the business today, then build a site that can keep working.
Nothing has to be fully defined before we speak. In person or online, we organise what exists, what is changing, and what should happen next in a practical order.
-
01
Understand the business and audience
We discuss what matters most, who the site needs to reach, and what is difficult in the current situation.
-
02
Organise the information people need
Services, products, case studies, access, FAQs and the route to booking or contact are brought into a clear journey.
-
03
Give the business a clear digital expression
Photography, words, design and mobile usability are considered as one experience.
-
04
Keep improving after launch
We can review the pages people use, the enquiries received and the burden of keeping information current, then prioritise WordPress checks, search foundations and the next useful improvement as the business changes.
Design that turns local character into a clear next step.
From a seasonal farm experience, private sauna stay and Zen temple to property care, land-and-building consultation and regional energy services, we consider what someone should feel, understand and choose on the other side of the screen.

Questions before getting started
Does Clickmark still have an office on Awaji Island?
Yes. Our first Japanese base opened in Sumoto in 2015 and continues as our Awaji office. Meetings can be arranged through Awaji, Kobe or online depending on the project.
Can we talk if the scope is still unclear or the business is small?
Absolutely. Start with what you want to communicate, what is difficult with the current presence and when you hope to make progress. We can clarify the necessary pages and priorities together.
Can you help with local discovery and measurement?
Yes. We can organise services, location, opening information, access and the routes to booking, purchase or enquiry, then establish sound site structure, page titles and measurement. We do not guarantee rankings or customer acquisition; search, site activity and enquiries provide evidence for the next improvement.
Can Clickmark support the website after launch?
Yes. We can support content, products and case-study updates, WordPress checks, forms, technical questions and the next practical improvement.
