East and West Sussex
Web design in Sussex
We are a web design and SEO studio based in Brighton, working across East and West Sussex. We design and build the site, then structure it around the towns and services you sell into.
- A separate page for each town you serve, written about that town rather than copied with the name swapped.
- Close enough to meet: Brighton, Hove, Lewes, Worthing, Eastbourne, Chichester and the towns between them.
- Speed, markup and redirects are ours to change rather than a plugin's
- Based in Brighton
- Built on our own platform
One county, a lot of separate searches
Sussex is not one market. Somebody in Hastings and somebody in Chichester are running different searches, and a single county page cannot answer both well. The structure below is what we build instead.
A page per town, not a template
Each town you sell into gets its own page: what you cover there, where you work from, and the wording people in that town use. Nothing is a find and replace of the page before it.
Structure that matches the search
Service pages for what you do, town pages for where you do it, and a county page above both. Each one targets a search someone is really typing, and links to the pages that answer the next question.
Our own platform underneath
Frively builds on its own platform. Page speed, structured data, canonical tags, sitemaps and redirects are part of the platform, so a change is a change we make rather than a plugin we wait on.
Services for Sussex businesses
Each service is written up as its own page and links through to the towns it is offered in.
AI Search Visibility
Making your site legible to AI assistants, so the facts they repeat about your business come from you.
Google Business Profile Management
We set up, correct and look after your Google Business Profile so the listing people see matches the business you run.
Local SEO
The work that gets you found in map results and local searches: your Google Business Profile, pages for the areas you cover, and the technical detail behind both.
Managed Website Hosting
We run the hosting, domain, certificates and platform updates for the sites we build, so nobody has to log into a control panel.
SEO Audit
A hands-on audit of your site's crawling, indexing, content and search demand, written up as an ordered list of fixes.
SEO Reporting
Plain-English SEO reporting built on data you own, covering search visibility, traffic and enquiries in one place.
How a Sussex project runs
Three stages. The first one decides the other two, so it is the one we spend time on.
Map the county
We list the services you sell and the towns you cover, then decide which combinations earn a page of their own and which would only repeat one that exists. That map becomes the site structure, and you sign it off before anything is designed.
Design and build
One design system across the site, built on our own platform. Laid out for a phone first, with the enquiry route on every page and the same components reused so a new town page is a page, not a project.
Write, redirect, launch
Each page written for its own town or service, not padded out from a template. Old URLs mapped and redirected, then launch. After that the pages get revisited against the searches they start picking up.

Working with a Sussex studio
The things people ask before starting. If yours is not here, ask it directly.
Do you work across the whole of Sussex?
Should I have one page for Sussex, or a page for each town?
What is involved in a build?
What happens to my existing site when the new one goes live?
Still deciding?
Send the question. A short, straight answer is more use to you than a sales call, and you will get one either way.

No obligation, and no pitch deck. If the work is not a fit, we will say so.
