How we work
We start by understanding what you actually need — not what a template says you should have. What does your business do? Who visits your site? What should they do when they get there? We figure out the scope, the budget, and whether anything from the old site is worth keeping.
Before anyone opens a design tool, we map out where everything lives. Page structure, navigation, content hierarchy. It sounds dry, but getting this right means your visitors find what they need and Google can make sense of it all.
Simple sketches of each page layout — no colours, no images, just structure. This is where we work out what goes where before anyone gets attached to a particular shade of blue.
Now it starts looking like a real website. Colours, typography, images, the lot. We design in the browser where possible, so you see how things actually behave rather than staring at a static Figma file.
We build the thing. Clean, semantic code that works on every device and doesn't fall apart when someone uses a screen reader. The CMS gets set up so your team can update content without calling us every time.
A beautiful website with placeholder text is just a brochure for Lorem Ipsum. We help you get the content right — or at the very least, make sure the CMS makes it straightforward for you to do it yourself.
We test on real devices, not just browser simulators. iPhones, Android phones, tablets, that one person in the office still using Internet Explorer. We also check performance, accessibility, and security before anything goes live.
DNS changes, SSL certificates, redirects from the old site, analytics setup — all the fiddly bits that are easy to forget. We handle the lot and make sure everything's working properly before we call it done.

Common questions
Most marketing websites take 6-10 weeks from start to finish, depending on complexity. A simple brochure site is quicker; something with custom integrations or a lot of content takes longer. We'll give you a realistic timeline before we start.
It depends on what you need. WordPress is sensible if your team already knows it. CraftCMS and Statamic are brilliant for more structured content. For purely static sites, we sometimes skip the CMS entirely and use Next.js. We'll recommend what actually fits rather than what we prefer.
Absolutely — that's the whole point of using a CMS. We set it up so your team can manage content without touching code. We also provide a walkthrough so you're not guessing where things are.
We can, yes. WordPress in particular needs regular updates for security. We offer straightforward monthly maintenance plans, or you can call us when something needs doing. No retainer lock-ins.
