Web Design

Websites built to look
the part — and actually work.

I design and build clean, fast, professional websites for UK small businesses — from brand-new builds to full redesigns. Every site is designed around your business and your customers, not pulled from a template.

What's Involved

More than just
making it look nice.

Good web design is a handful of disciplines working together — not just picking colours and fonts.

🧭

UX & Information Architecture

Planning how visitors move through your site and find what they came for, before a single pixel is designed.

Custom Visual Design

A look built around your brand specifically — not a generic template with your logo dropped on top.

Responsive, Mobile-First Layout

Designed to work beautifully on a phone first, then scaled up — not the other way round.

Conversion-Focused Structure

Every page laid out to guide visitors toward actually getting in touch, not just looking pretty.

Accessibility

Built to work well for everyone — including visitors using screen readers or assistive technology.

Performance-Minded Design

Visual choices that never come at the cost of speed — a beautiful site that's also a fast one.

The Process

From first message
to launch day.

A clear, honest process with no surprises along the way — you'll always know exactly what's happening next.

01
Discovery Call

A relaxed, no-obligation chat about your business, your goals, and what you actually need your website to do. This is also where you'll get a real, honest quote — not a guess.

02
Design

I put together a design concept tailored to your brand and your customers — clean layout, sensible structure, built with your goals in mind from the very first sketch.

03
Build

The design gets built into a real, working website — fast, responsive, and properly structured for both visitors and search engines.

04
Review & Revisions

You get a full walkthrough and the chance to request changes. This is your project — we refine it together until it's genuinely right.

05
Launch

Your new site goes live — properly tested, connected, and ready for real visitors from day one.

06
Ongoing Support

Launch day isn't the finish line. Optional hosting and maintenance plans keep your site fast, secure, and up to date long after we've shipped it.

Why It Matters

A professional website
isn't a nice-to-have.

Visitors judge your business by your website before they judge anything else — often in less time than it takes to blink. I go into this in more detail in this article on average vs. professional websites, but here's the short version:

~50ms
is roughly how long it takes visitors to form a first impression of your site — almost entirely based on design.
3–4x
higher conversion rates for websites that load in around 1 second, compared to sites taking 5 seconds or more.
97%
of consumers read online reviews of a local business before visiting — your site is the first thing they check.
1st
impression is usually made online, long before anyone picks up the phone or walks through your door.
What's Included

Built properly,
not just built fast.

Every website I build comes with this as standard — not an upsell, just how it's done properly.

Fully Responsive Design
Looks and works properly on phones, tablets, and desktops — no exceptions.
Fast Load Times
Optimised images, clean code, and sensible layout choices — no bloated, sluggish pages.
SEO-Friendly Structure
Proper headings, clean markup, and sensible page structure built in from the start.
Contact & Enquiry Forms
Working forms that actually deliver enquiries straight to your inbox.
Intuitive Navigation
Clear menus and page structure so visitors never have to hunt for what they need.
Analytics Setup
See exactly how visitors find and use your site, so you're never guessing.
Cross-Browser Testing
Checked and working properly across the browsers your visitors actually use.
Accessible by Design
Built with accessibility in mind, not bolted on as an afterthought.
Website Redesign

Already have a site?
Let's fix what's holding it back.

A redesign doesn't mean starting from zero — it means keeping what works and rebuilding what doesn't, without losing the search rankings you've already earned.

Signs it's time for a redesign
It looks noticeably dated compared to competitors
It's slow to load, especially on mobile
It doesn't work properly on phones
You're not getting enquiries you'd expect from your traffic
You dread sending people the link
What's included
A full audit of your existing site and content
A modern rebuild that keeps your existing SEO value
Improved speed, mobile experience, and structure
The same clear process as a new build, start to finish
Common Questions

Before you get in touch.

How long does a website take to build?
Most projects take 2–4 weeks depending on scope. You'll get a clear timeline during our discovery call, and I stick to it.
How much does a website cost?
It depends on pages, features, and whether you need e-commerce. Use the instant quote tool for a rough estimate in under a minute, or see full pricing on the pricing page.
Do I need to provide my own content and photos?
It helps, but it's not essential — I can advise on copy and source placeholder content where needed.
What happens after my site goes live?
You're not left to figure it out alone. Optional hosting and maintenance plans keep everything running, updated, and secure long-term.
