Our vision is that Ballina Coast & Hinterland will be a destination popular with Australian and overseas visitors who want to enjoy the regions man-made and natural attractions along the coast and in the hinterland.
'From Day One Tourism Ballina’s web site has provided us with that professional image that we were looking for. Dave consulted with us closely before going live, and has continued to work with us to maintain that image as our requirements have changed and to deliver visitors from all over the world. As the only private sector tourism body in the region, we were naturally interested in a web site that brought in visitors on line and paying customers to our membership. We know that our web page statistics are very good and getting better every day. This is a result of Dave’s extensive understanding of web page design and search engine ranking methodologies. With only a modest investment in the web site we have achieved an admirable result for tourism in Ballina Shire. That’s great for our members, the local economy and the wider community. Thanks DavE for a great job. We look forward to even greater results as DavE incorporates emerging technologies into the site.' Tourism Ballina Committee Member

'Dave, that’s his real name, is a fantastic web-designer. Not only is he easily approachable, (he answers his own phone and is a native to Australia), he’s also easy to understand. I’ve found that even though we live over 200kms apart, it’s made no difference to the ability for us to easily communicate and design my webpage. With Dave’s help, and his SEO (search engine optimization) skills, we are no.1 in Google searches, and no.3 in the World for just “Art Workshops”, which is a pretty mean feat considering we’ve only had our doors open for a few months. Our website traffic is exponentially increasing each month, and having a great webpage has really helped publicize the business, which is going from strength to strength. I have and will continue to strongly recommend Dave to anyone who wants the professional edge in their business'. – Krisstie Byrnne, Brisbane Art Workshops.

“I was looking for way to create a cost effective website that would reach and appeal to my target audience. It was important that the site ticked a lot of boxes in terms of being SEO friendly, user friendly and appealing to the visitor. With all of this in mind, I knew what I wanted, but found I didn’t know exactly how I was to make that eventuate into a reality. Dave was incredibly helpful, patient and provided a lot of his experience to enable me to have a fantastic site that I am proud to be associated with. I’ve had great feedback already from potential associates to my business. Thanks Dave for all of your assistance and guidance, not to mention your undying patience whilst I changed my mind on countless occasions!' - Yonika Mantel Five Star Online Business
Don Page MP for BallinaDon's vision for the electorate is that we create a sustainable future for our community. This involves creating employment, whilst protecting the beauty and environmental integrity of our area. It is not a case of jobs or the environment - it is a case of jobs and the environment. We must learn from the mistakes of others and have faith in our ability to maintain quality lifestyle in the face of increased population growth. We also need to plan our growth to ensure that our community is well served in health, education, transport, policing and natural resource management. This involves getting our fair share of funding from State and Federal Governments and ensuring that Local Government can respond to local community needs. We should make our area family friendly, encourage harmonious relationships, tolerance and an outward looking approach to new ideas.

Bundhowi' s Peace Photography Bundhowi's striking use of photo-montage can involve the manipulation of 100 or more layers of photographs.
'It is amazing how my photography has been accessed by different people on the globe since Dave, the Web Master, put it on the web. Not only do people look at the pictures, they also send comments I enjoy reading. Before the web, due to the heavy files, it always took me hours to send my images to my clients or anybody who wanted to see my pictures. Even when I converted my files to compressed pdf. or smallest jpeg, sometimes I had to send and resend those images, either one by one or I had to burn compressed files to send on a cd through post. Now with the web that Dave designed and put on the net, this is no longer an issue. I just tell my clients to access the web, and they will call me back with more interest about my photography. Thank you, for the wonderful work, Dave'. - Bundhowi (Indonesia)

'When we tendered out for the redesign of our somewhat ‘outdated’ website, then as TTEC Enterprises, Dave Hegge responded to our tender requirements in concise ‘lay-mans’ terms and with a comprehensive understanding of our wants for the new look site. Throughout the redesign process, Dave was both easily accessible and fast when it came to changes required – and our website was completed ahead of time and with great results - we were extremely happy.
Since our first redesign and our recent rebranding due to a merger, Dave was the natural choice to update our website again, this time with a whole new branding, extra service divisions and information pages. We also assigned Dave to look after our Search Engine Optimisation and since then we could not be happier with our front-page search engine results and increase in traffic to our website.
I would highly recommend D@VE (Digital and Virtual Environments) as a choice in web designer – your site will not only look as good as ours now does, the increase in traffic results speak volumes to any business owner who realises the importance of internet business today'.
