(Services)

Four steps. One team.

Strategy, design, build, hosting and marketing from the same people, with nothing outsourced. Every project starts with a conversation and ends with a website that earns its keep.

01

We plan

Strategy & scope

It starts with a friendly interrogation: your products and services, who you’re trying to reach, and how involved you want to be in running the site afterwards.

That becomes a written brief (your requirements broken into modules and tasks), so you know what you’re getting, when, and what it costs before a line of code is written.

  • Initial consultation
  • Competition analysis
  • Objectives and audience
  • Business workflow analysis
  • A written brief, broken into modules
  • A fixed plan and price
02

We develop

Design & build

Design made for your business, not poured into a template, and built in WordPress, so your team can update it without a computer science degree. For online shops we use WooCommerce.

When no plugin does what you need, we write it: delivery pricing by zone and distance, made-to-measure product options, booking systems, even a worldwide census application.

You get a private development site from day one, so you can watch it take shape rather than wait for a reveal.

  • Custom graphic design
  • Responsive on every device
  • WordPress and WooCommerce
  • Custom modules and integrations
  • Content writing and upload
  • A development site you can visit any time
  • Logo design, if you need one
  • Search-friendly from day one
03

We deliver

Launch & hosting

Launch comes with tracking in place, email accounts set up if you want them, and a video tutorial showing you how to update your own site.

Then we look after it. Hosting with us is not just an account on a fast UK server. It comes with people who answer. Questions, ideas and small updates are part of the service, and often won’t cost you a penny.

  • Fast UK-based servers
  • Software updates handled for you
  • Content delivery via CDN
  • DDoS attack prevention
  • Daily, weekly and monthly off-site backups
  • Free minor website updates
  • Transactional email via SMTP relay
  • Domain and DNS management

You excel

Growth & marketing

A website nobody finds might as well not exist. Search is built in from the start rather than bolted on, then improved over time, with reporting that tells you plainly what changed.

We write, too: clear, persuasive copy in your tone of voice, for people first and search engines second.

And when you need a second opinion (a new product, a campaign, a tool that isn’t behaving), you can draw on experience in IT, web development, sales and marketing. If we built your site and host it, that support is included.

  • On-page SEO
  • Content that reads well and ranks
  • Link building
  • Transparent reporting
  • Continuous optimisation
  • One-off consultations or ongoing support
We had training on how to work through the website, alter our own information and are able to update the website whenever we wish to. They are just so helpful, polite and make the technical side easy to understand.

Got a weird idea? Good.
