Small business website design and build
A complete site built around your content - designed and built from scratch to load quickly, work properly on every device, and actually sound like you.
What a build with us looks like
Rather than starting from a rigid template, every site is designed around what you actually need it to do - whether that's a handful of pages for a local trade business or a fuller site for a charity with several audiences to speak to. Packages start at 4 pages, larger sites are scoped to fit, and there's no bolted-together page builder; the site is built to fit your content, not the other way round.
What's included
- Packages from 4 pages, with larger sites scoped to what you actually need
- Mobile-first design, checked properly across real device sizes
- SEO fundamentals and analytics set up from launch, not added on afterwards
- Performance optimisation, so pages load quickly on an average connection
- Structured data (schema markup) so search engines understand what your business does
- A short handover session once the site's live, so you know how everything works
Who this is for
Small businesses and UK charities who need a site built properly the first time, rather than assembled from a template - including anyone currently on Wix, Squarespace, or an old WordPress build who's ready to move to something built specifically around their content. If you're a charity specifically, our charity web design page covers the accessibility and budget considerations we build around. If you're local to Norfolk, see our Norwich web developer page for more on how we work in the area.
Design & build questions
What platform do you build on?
It depends on what the site needs to do. Straightforward brochure and small business sites are usually hand-built for speed and simplicity; sites that need frequent content updates from you directly may use a lightweight CMS instead. We'll recommend whichever fits your situation rather than defaulting to one platform for everything.
Can you redesign my existing site rather than starting from scratch?
Yes - if the structure and content are mostly right and it's really the design and performance holding things back, a redesign is usually quicker and cheaper than a full rebuild. We'll be upfront during the first call about which route actually makes sense for your site.
Do you design the site yourself, or use a template?
Every build is designed specifically for the business it's for, based on your branding, content, and what you're trying to achieve - not a shared template reskinned with your logo.
