Engine Room Technology

Based in Kelty, Scotland, Engine Room Technology is a small digital agency with over 25 years of history in web hosting, design and development. Its client base spans several sectors, including academia, industry, accommodation and, notably, automotive retail, with a portfolio featuring van and car dealer websites, research project sites for organisations such as energy and maritime research bodies, and ecommerce clients. The agency describes itself as full service, covering the technical infrastructure and marketing needed to build, host and promote a website, rather than a single specialism. Services listed include website hosting (from shared hosting to virtual private and dedicated servers, domain registration and SSL certificates), web design and development on open source platforms such as WordPress, WooCommerce, Magento and Concrete5, and WordPress maintenance and support. A specific offering is its own car and van dealer website system, which builds automotive websites and connects with third-party platforms to distribute vehicle listings to more than 40 marketplaces. For smaller businesses, it offers WordPress starter packages with mobile-friendly standard templates and content management, alongside premium template options for a more customised presentation. Declared services also include SEO, pay-per-click advertising and social media marketing, positioned alongside the hosting and development work described in its portfolio of ecommerce, CMS and bespoke development projects.
