WordPress, Shopify or fully custom-coded — whichever actually suits the job. What they share is that the code is written rather than assembled, so there is nothing loading that is not being used.
Not a list of features to pad a quote. These are the things that decide whether a site earns its cost.
No template bent into shape. The layout follows what you sell and who buys it, which is why a clinic and a clothing brand should not look the same.
Semantic HTML, CSS written for the job, and JavaScript only where it earns its place. No page builder, no forty plugins.
Most visitors arrive on mobile with poor signal. We build for that case and let desktop benefit, rather than the other way round.
If you want to edit it yourself, we set up an admin you can actually operate without ringing us.
Contact and enquiry forms that store submissions and email you, rather than opening the visitor’s mail client and hoping.
Titles, meta descriptions, headings, sitemap, robots and structured data. The unglamorous work that decides whether you are found.
GA4 and Search Console configured properly, so you can see what happens after launch.
DNS, SSL, redirects from the old site so you keep your rankings, and a walkthrough of anything you will manage.
Not what pages you want — what the site is for. Bookings, enquiries, sales, credibility. The answer changes the entire structure.
One number, agreed before anything starts, with a realistic timeline. If your deadline is not achievable we say so rather than agree and miss it.
We agree the pages and what sits on each one first. Rearranging a sitemap costs an email; rearranging a built site costs days.
You see the design before it is coded. Once approved, it is written properly — and you get a staging link to watch it come together.
Actual phones, not just a resized browser window. Forms submitted, checkout run end to end, speed measured against Google’s own tooling.
We handle DNS, SSL and redirects. Every build includes a support window afterwards, because things surface in the first fortnight.
WordPress if you will be publishing regularly and want to edit things yourself. Custom if the site has to do something specific, needs to be fast above all, or has logic a CMS would fight you on. We recommend based on the job, not on which is more profitable for us.
Yes, and this matters more than most people realise. We map every old URL to its new equivalent and set 301 redirects, so search engines carry your existing position across instead of starting from zero.
No. Hosting with us is how we can promise anything about speed, but you are free to host anywhere. We hand over the code and help you deploy it.
Every build includes a support window where anything broken is fixed at no cost. After that a maintenance retainer is optional — plenty of clients take the site and run it themselves, which is a perfectly good outcome.
If you want to. Tell us which parts you expect to change and we make those editable. If you would rather never touch it, we build it so you do not have to.
Pick your services, describe the project, and you will have a fixed quote within one business day.
Only to see which pages help and which don’t. Nothing is sold, nothing is used for advertising, and declining changes nothing about how the site works. More in our privacy policy.
