Design & build

Web design and development built to rank and turn visitors into customers

Custom websites built in the platform that actually fits your project, WordPress, PHP, Laravel, React or Next.js. Designed to convert, engineered to load fast, and yours to keep.

Who it's for

A good fit if…

  • Small businesses and startups that have outgrown a template or a DIY builder
  • Anyone whose current site is slow, dated, or invisible in search
  • Founders who want a site that brings in enquiries, not one that just exists
  • Businesses that need to own their code and stay free to move later
Probably not for you if

Maybe not, if…

  • You need a single landing page live tomorrow on a fixed template
  • You want the cheapest possible option over the right one
  • You just want it to "look nice" with no interest in results
What you get

What's included.

  • Custom design from wireframe to finished UI, no bought template
  • Responsive build tested on real devices, not just a desktop preview

  • Speed work targeting a 90+ PageSpeed score
  • Accessible markup to WCAG AA basics
  • Contact forms, analytics and Search Console set up
  • A handover call and written documentation
Kept honest

What's not included.

Timeline

What lands, and when.

Indicative for a typical project, your exact schedule is set in the plan.

  1. Week 1

    Discovery call, written scope, sitemap and approved plan

  2. Week 2

    Wireframes for every page type, reviewed and signed off

  3. Weeks 2-3

    Full visual design, revised until it's right

  4. Weeks 3-4

    Build on staging with your review access

  5. Week 5

    QA, launch, analytics and handover

Your part

What we need from you.

The project moves at the speed of feedback. Have these ready and we'll keep to schedule.

  • Your logo and any brand files you already have
  • Existing copy, images and product or service details
  • Access to your domain and hosting (or let us set it up)
  • Timely feedback at each review, the main thing that keeps us on schedule
How it works

Four steps. No mystery.

You'll always know what's happening, what's next, and what it costs.

  1. Audit

    We find out where you actually stand: technical health, rankings, competitors, your Google Business Profile, what AI assistants say about you, and where enquiries are leaking. You get it in writing, in priority order.

  2. Plan

    A written plan with the work, the order and the price, tied to the enquiries you want rather than keyword counts. For a build, this is where scope, wireframes and timeline are agreed. You approve it before anything starts.

  3. Execute

    We do the work: fixes, content, links, campaigns, or the build itself. You see what was done each month, or watch a site come together on a staging link.

  4. Measure & grow

    Monthly reporting in rankings, traffic, AI visibility and enquiries, then more of what works and less of what doesn't. Monthly work runs month to month, so we keep your business by earning it.

Questions

Before you get in touch.

Which platform will you build on?

The one that fits your project, not ours. WordPress when you want to edit content yourself; custom PHP or Laravel for bespoke functionality; React or Next.js when you need an app-like front end. We explain the trade-offs before you commit.

Will I be able to edit it myself?

If you want to. We build on a CMS where that matters and give you a short walkthrough. If you'd rather not touch it, a care plan covers changes for you.

Do I own the finished site?

Completely. Code, domain, hosting and accounts are all in your name from day one. Leaving is always an option, that's the point.

More questions are answered on the FAQ page, and the process page walks through how a project actually runs.
