Yep! We specialise in crafting custom websites tailored specifically to your needs. No generic themes or templates here – we firmly believe that your website should reflect the uniqueness of you and your brand.
For a tailor-made website with enhanced performance and technical SEO, prices start at £2,700. Hosting starts at £30 per month (which will be suitable for most businesses). If you require language localisation or expect a huge number of visitors, we can discuss this on the discovery call!
We also offer website copywriting services, if required, starting from £1,250.
- Discovery Call
This is the initial step where we connect with you to understand your needs and goals for your website. We discuss your vision, target audience, branding, and any specific features or functionalities you require.
- The Brief
Based on our discussion during the discovery call, we create a detailed project brief outlining the scope, timeline, and deliverables of the project. This document serves as a roadmap for the entire website development process.
- Design Stage
In this phase, we translate the project brief into visual concepts. We create wireframes and mockups to present the layout, structure, and overall look and feel of the website. We collaborate with you to gather feedback.
- Development Stage
Once the design is approved, we bring the design to life. We use the latest web technologies and coding practices to build a functional and responsive website. This stage includes implementing features and optimising the website for performance and technical SEO.
- Go Live!
After thorough testing and quality assurance, we launch your website to the public. We handle the technical aspects of domain registration, hosting setup, and deployment to ensure a smooth transition. Post-launch, we provide support and maintenance to address any issues and keep your website running smoothly.
We don't generally use WordPress for our websites. We use Nuxt for website development, paired with a user-friendly and secure CMS called Caisy for content updates. If you absolutely need WordPress, we have completed sites using WordPress in "headless mode", whereby we obtain the data & content from WordPress but the main presentation of the site is built in Nuxt.
Having a custom website also comes with other benefits such as more control over optimisation, unique design flexibility, and seamless integration with specialised functionalities tailored to your specific needs.
To kickstart the project, we kindly request your branding assets, such as logos, brand colours, fonts, and artwork. This helps streamline the design process and prevent any delays. Additionally, sharing a list of websites you admire would be immensely beneficial as it allows us to draw inspiration.
During the development stage, content and photographs you wish to feature on the website would be important to have to avoid delays. If you require assistance with this, we have copywriters and photographers who can provide these assets for an additional fee. Placeholder text and images can be implemented during the design stage if needed!
