Small business web design that wins the first three seconds.

We design and build custom websites for small businesses and startups: fast on a phone, clear in one screen, with one obvious next step. On WordPress, Shopify or custom code, whichever your team can run.

Sound familiar?

  1. Problem: It takes seconds to show anything on a phone.

    Fix: Images sized for phones and code kept lean, measured before and after.

  2. Problem: Visitors cannot tell what you do, or where.

    Fix: One headline that says what you do, for whom and where.

  3. Problem: There is no obvious next step.

    Fix: One main action per page: call, book or request a quote.

  4. Problem: It looks older than your business.

    Fix: A type and colour system that makes a small business look established.

  5. Problem: Changing a word means calling a developer.

    Fix: Editing your team can do, on a platform they already know.

What you get

Measured before. Measured after.

No guessing and no redesign for its own sake. Every project starts and ends with the same tests, so you can see what changed.

  1. Measure

    We test your site the way Google does: on a mid-range phone over a mobile connection. How fast it shows up, whether it jumps around, how long before anything can be tapped.

    You get the numbers, before we touch anything.

  2. Diagnose

    We go through the five things that cost visitors: speed, interruptions, a message that says nothing, no clear next step, and details that look cheap.

    You get a short list of what to fix, in order of what it costs you.

  3. Design and build

    One page system with one clear action per page. Images sized for phones, code kept lean, on the platform your team can actually run.

    You get the new site, on WordPress, Shopify or custom.

  4. Measure again

    The same tests after launch, side by side with the first ones.

    You get before and after, in numbers.

Before you ask.

Custom build, or WordPress and Shopify?

Whichever your team can run day to day. A custom build gives the most freedom; WordPress and Shopify are easier for most teams to edit. We recommend one in the proposal and explain why.

How long does it take?

It depends on the scope. After a short call we send a written proposal with a fixed price and a timeline, and we agree on both before any work starts.

Can I request changes during the project?

Yes. You see the design before it is built and give feedback at each stage. Large changes late in the build can move the timeline, and we tell you before they do.

Will it work on phones?

Every page is designed for phones first and tested on them, because that is where most of your visitors are.

Do you write the content?

We help with structure and the key messages on each page, and can work with a copywriter when the project needs one.

Do I own the work when it is finished?

Yes. Once the project is complete and paid for, the design, code and content are yours.

What happens after launch?

We stay on for maintenance, updates and technical support, and we measure the site again so you can see what changed.

Other services.

Is your site losing people right now?

Type your address. We run Google's own PageSpeed test on the mobile version of your site and show you the score in about twenty seconds. No sign-up.

Google tests your site on a mid-range phone over a mobile connection, the way most of your customers see it.

Tell us about it.

A few lines is enough. A person reads every message and replies by email.
