Website Design
A website you're proud to send people to, that actually brings in work.
A lot of websites are online brochures. They look alright, and they quietly do nothing. I build sites around the way your customers actually decide, so people who land on them get in touch, ring you or book. They're fast, there's nothing to maintain, and there are no monthly platform fees for as long as you own it.
The problem
Sound familiar?
Your website looks fine, but the phone never rings
People visit your site, then leave without doing anything, because nothing on the page gives them a reason to get in touch.
You're scared to touch it
It was built years ago and it's held together with plugins. One update and the whole thing could fall over, so even changing a phone number feels risky.
You're paying monthly, and it brings nothing in
Hosting, plugins, a maintenance plan, a page builder. The costs keep coming, and none of it brings in a single customer.
Not sure this is your actual problem? The free review will tell you, even if the answer is "you don't need me".
Who it's for
Is this for you? No worries if not.
I'd rather point you at the right thing than sell you the wrong one.
Yes, if any of these sound like you
- Your current site embarrasses you, or you haven't got one at all
- You get visitors but almost nobody enquires
- You're sick of paying monthly for a website that earns nothing
Probably not, if
- You're after the cheapest website going
- You need it live by the end of the week
- You'd rather not be involved at all, not even to check the words
Not sure either way? Let's have a quick chat and I'll tell you straight.
Book a callWhat you get
What you get with
every website.
Built to get enquiries
Every page has a job to do, a clear message and an obvious next step. It's built around how your customers decide, not what would look nice in a portfolio.
Designed for phones first
That's where most of your visitors are, so I design for a thumb on a small screen first, then make it work on a big one.
Fast and low-hassle
It's built the same way as this site: quick to load on a phone, with no plugins to update and nothing for anyone to hack.
Words that sound like you
I write the words too, in plain English, because a great-looking site with weak words still won't bring in work.
Set up for Google from day one
The behind-the-scenes bits that help Google understand your site (page structure, titles and the local basics) are done properly from the start, not bolted on later.
You own everything
Your domain, your words and your code are all yours. Hosting costs pennies, usually nothing, and there are no plugin licences or maintenance plans to keep paying.
What it costs
Most websites land between £1,995 and £4,995 + VAT. The price depends on how many pages and services you have, what needs wiring in, and the size of your business. You get a fixed quote before any work starts, and the site runs with no care plan and no monthly fees.
Not sure what you need? Your Marketing Plan maps it out for £495 + VAT, and that comes off any build.
How it works
From first chat to live site.
I listen first
A proper chat about your business, your customers and what the site needs to do. If a new website isn't actually your problem, I'll tell you.
Plan before I build
We agree the plan first: the pages, what goes on them and how it'll look. You sign it off before I build anything, so there are no surprises later.
Design and build
You see real pages, not vague drawings. Because the thinking's already done, the build moves quickly, and you get to click round everything before it goes live.
Launch and tweak
It goes live, and you get a period of tweaks to words and pictures as standard. After that, your site just runs, with no maintenance and no monthly costs.
Proof
Website Design in the wild.
532 blog posts moved off WordPress, and not one web address changed.
Ten years of blog posts, six booking forms and all their Google rankings, moved to a fast new website without changing a single web address.

From a one-page site to a proper website for a civil engineering firm.
ALD had a one-page WordPress site. Now developers can see exactly what they do, and who they'll be dealing with, before they pick up the phone.

Fair questions
Honest answers about websites.
How long does a website take?
Weeks, not months, and you'll get a date before we start. Because the plan and the words are agreed first, the build itself moves quickly. The biggest thing that holds it up is waiting on the bits only you can give me, like photos and details about your business.
What do you build websites with?
The same modern setup this website runs on. It's quick to load, there's nothing to hack or patch, and it costs next to nothing to host. If you want a blog or want to change the words yourself, there's a simple editor you can use.
Do you write the content?
Yes, and I'd rather you let me, because the words do the selling. I'll get to know how you actually talk and write it so it sounds like you on a good day.
Why is this more than the quote I got off Facebook?
Because a cheap site is usually a template with your logo on it, with no thinking behind it, no proper words and a monthly fee attached. You're paying for the thinking, the words and a site with no ongoing costs. If budget's genuinely the problem, tell me and I'll be straight with you about what's worth doing first.
Can you redesign my existing site?
Yes. Sometimes it's a full rebuild, sometimes it's fixing the message and structure on what you've got. Start with a free web review and I'll tell you honestly which one you need.
What about hosting and domains?
I set it up on Cloudflare, which is fast, secure and usually free to host. Your domain stays in your name, in your own account, so your website is always yours.
