How did Roquepress come about?
Started off back in 2013 from an apartment in Jurong West Street 81, Nazreen started Roquepress as a freelance web developer. Doing websites for free and at a very low cost. He gained experience as he builds various different types of websites. He then worked for multiple digital agencies before making the plunge to start his very own agency.
After a while, Nazreen got tired. Tired of seeing many local websites that were just plain disappointing. Tired of small businesses getting ripped off by so-called “affordable website designers”. Tired of seeing valuable opportunities being wasted. Tired of poorly-designed website concepts that just don’t work.
Two years later in 2015, he decided he’d had enough of being tired. It was time to take action and get Roquepress into full force. Fast forward to 2022, we’ve built more than 200 websites both local and overseas. We got featured on various top web designer listicles namely MediaOne, Best in Singapore & BestLah SG.
Gone are the days when a website was a nice little add-on to a business’s profile. Today, it’s usually the very first impression a client or customer will have of your business. Someone mentions a restaurant or café? People look up the menu. Someone mentions a store or service business? People look up the opening hours and the products and services available.
