What you get
A site designed around the one thing it needs to do: get the right customers to call or send an enquiry.
- Hand-coded, not templated. Clean HTML and CSS with no page-builder bloat slowing it down.
- Mobile-first layouts. Most local searches happen on a phone, so we design for that screen first.
- Built for search from day one. Titles, headings, structured data, sitemap and internal links are done at build, not bolted on later.
- Fast by design. Lightweight code and properly sized images give you a head start on Google’s Core Web Vitals.
- Clear calls to action. Click-to-call, short forms and obvious next steps on every page.
- A launch that does not break things. Domain, DNS, redirects and email are handled with the build.
Hand-coded or WordPress?
Hand-coded
Our default for service businesses. There is no database or plugin stack to maintain, pages load quickly and there is very little to go wrong. Best when your content changes a few times a year and you would rather ask us than log in.
WordPress
The right call when you want to edit pages and publish posts yourself, run a larger content library or add features such as bookings. We build it lean and structured for SEO, rather than leaning on heavy themes.

Hand-coded, tested on real phones and checked for speed, accessibility and on-page SEO.

Web design questions
Should I choose a hand-coded site or WordPress?
It depends on how you plan to use the site. A hand-coded site is the fastest and lowest-maintenance option for a brochure or lead-generation site. WordPress suits businesses that want to edit pages, publish blog posts or add features like bookings themselves. We recommend one after a short conversation about how you work.
Can you redesign my existing site without losing my Google rankings?
Yes. A redesign should keep the URLs and content that already perform, redirect any page that moves and carry your titles and headings across before improving them. We audit the old site first so nothing that earns traffic gets lost.
Do you handle the domain, DNS and email as part of a new site?
Yes. Launching a site properly means pointing the domain, setting up redirects and making sure your business email keeps working. We take care of it so launch day is not a risk to your enquiries.
Will a new website get me ranking on Google?
A well-built site gives you the foundation: fast pages, clear structure and the right on-page signals. Rankings also depend on your competition, your Google Business Profile and ongoing content, which is where our local SEO service comes in.
