Web design

Web design for local service businesses

A website that turns up when someone searches, loads before they lose patience, and lets them book or call without hunting for the button. Built for businesses that win work locally: accountants, salons, trades, personal trainers and the like.

  • A page for each service you offer, written around what people type
  • A booking or enquiry route that works on a phone
  • Structured data, fast pages and clean headings as standard
  • Rebuilds planned so the new site keeps what the old one earned
  • Brighton-based, working across the UK
  • You own your domain and your content
  • One build fee, one monthly fee

What we build

Two ways in

A new build, or a migration that moves an existing site onto our platform without dropping what it has already earned. Both are built the same way, with structured data, speed and sitemaps part of the build, and priced the same way: one build fee, then one monthly fee.

    Website Design

    A new website built around the services you offer and the places you serve, structured to be found and to turn visits into enquiries.

    Website Migration

    Moving your site to a new platform without losing the URLs, redirects and search visibility it already has.


Questions

Before you get in touch

The things owners ask before a build, answered plainly.

What is included in a website build?
Design and build, the page structure search engines read, the pages for each service you want found for, and the enquiry or booking route someone uses on a phone. Hosting and ongoing maintenance sit under website care rather than being a separate bill you discover later.
Can you move my existing website across?
Yes, and it is worth doing properly. A rebuild that ignores the old URLs throws away whatever rankings the old site had earned. Website migration is a service in its own right for that reason: the mapping and redirects are the work, not an afterthought.
Do I own the website?
You own your domain, your content and your images. The platform the site runs on is ours, which is what lets us maintain it properly rather than handing you a codebase nobody will look after. If you leave, you take your domain and content with you.
Do you only work with certain types of business?
We work with local service businesses: accountants, salons, trades, personal trainers, clinics and the like. What they share is that they win work from people nearby, which is what the sites are built to do. If your business sells nationally or online only, we will tell you honestly whether we are the right fit.
How is this different from a website builder?
A builder gives you the tools and leaves the decisions to you. The decisions are the hard part: what pages you need, what each one should say, how they link together, and what makes them findable. If you want to make those decisions yourself, a builder is cheaper and you should use one.
