Web Design
Without All The
Big Agency Bulls*it

You're out of your comfort zone here, we get that so let me try and put your mind at rest - you don't need any technical knowledge and I guarantee whatever your question, we've been asked it a thousand times before.

We don't pretend to know how to mend a torn calf muscle, how to measure curtains, fix an iPhone or write a resume but we've helped people create a website that do.

You be an expert at what you do and we'll ask the silly questions, we'll be an expert at what we do and we'll answer the silly questions.

Let me just grab that piece of string and a pair of scissors...

Honestly there's no single answer to this and you will find a range of solutions and prices from a single Google search so here are a few considerations that will affect the cost:

Brand

Do you have a logo, a company name and a brand identity? If not you should consider this first.

Design

We will always promote a bespoke design as it gives you uniqueness and allows your brand to come through. Templates are an alternative solution.

Development

This is probably the area with the most variation. What sort of functionality do you need? Is it just a contact form or are you looking for an ecommerce site, or a membership platform that allows for subscriptions and specific content for members? Maybe you have a bespoke system that you'd like built to help your businesses efficiency. Be clear about what you need the website to do.

Hosting

Again this can vary and you need to consider how much traffic you are likely to get and how resource intensive it is. An ecommerce site, for example, should have a hosting package that can deal with online payments and the management of products.

Our favourite projects are where we can work with a new company and build their brand and create their identity so we love working with start ups.

That being said we do recognise that many start up companies don't have much of a budget for their marketing and website, in particular.

We will only work with companies that we believe we can add value to so we can take your budget and try and find a solution that fits but in some cases we may have to advise alternative solutions that would be better for you.

No we don't, we have worked with Shopify, Wix, Drupal and also built bespoke sites that fit exactly with our clients needs. We will always advise the best solution for you to get value for your money.

A large percentage of our work is built with WordPress. With 40% of all websites being on WordPress it would be silly not to get on board and it is a very powerful and flexible system. Yes it needs to be managed properly to get the best out of it but that's what we're here for!

OK, so technically yes I can and do but we would always advise that you make this purchase through your own account, with someone like GoDaddy, and then add us as users to the account so we can deal with the technical side of things.

The reason is quite simple, the domain name is the main thing you need to protect your brand, if you don't have access to that and something goes wrong you can potentially lose your website, your emails and with it your company presence. It's the cheapest but most important part of the process and you should have full control of it.

We can help you create an account and step you through the purchase process, if needed.

You don't need to be ready to go, you don't even need to know how much money you want to spend on a website just to have a chat.

If you have an idea, you just want to discuss what you might need or you want to ask the questions you think are just silly, just click the grab a coffee button below and we'll happily go through what we recommend you should do, how we might be able to help and then hopefully arrange a meeting to discuss more about your project!

No question is too small or too silly, we won't know everything about how your industry works and we don't expect you to be experts in with the world wide web, so just ask.
