Websites that work as hard as you do
Your website is often the first proper impression a customer gets of your business. It should look professional, load quickly, and make it easy for people to get in touch - whether they found you from Kingswood, elsewhere in Hull, or further afield.
Every website design is tailored to your brand, your audience and your goals. No template that looks like everyone else. No bloated page builders. Clean code, clear structure and a conversion-led layout from day one.
What you get
- A bespoke design that fits your brand - not a theme with your logo bolted on
- Fully responsive layouts that work on phone, tablet and desktop
- Clear calls to action so visitors know how to enquire or buy
- Accessible, semantic HTML that search engines and assistive tech can understand
- Performance and security considered during design, not as an afterthought

Who this suits
Trades, professional practices, shops, restaurants and growing teams who need a site that looks the part and brings enquiries in - without an agency process wrapped around every decision.
It is a strong fit if your current site is slow, dated, built on a bloated template, or simply not converting the visitors you already get.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a website cost?
Packages start at £500. Typical first year is the build plus hosting and domain (£250 per year). Optional email is £60 per mailbox per year. I am not VAT registered, so VAT is not added. A written quote confirms the package and scope before work starts.
Is hosting included in the package price?
Hosting and domain are £250 per year when I host the site for you. That is separate from the one-off build and renews each year. Email is optional at £60 per mailbox per year. You can host elsewhere if you prefer - there is no lock-in.
Which website package should I pick?
Starter is 1–5 pages for £500. Essential is 6–10 pages for £1,000. Complete is 11+ pages, From £1,500. Essential is the most popular choice for small businesses that need a proper site with room to grow. If you are unsure, request a quote and I will recommend a package.
Do you use WordPress or page builders?
No. Every site is hand-coded in PHP, HTML, CSS and JavaScript. That keeps pages lean, secure and easier to maintain than a theme or page-builder stack.
How long does a bespoke website take?
Most small business sites take a few weeks from agreed quote to launch, depending on scope, content readiness and feedback speed. You get a clear timetable before work starts.
Can you redesign an existing website?
Yes. Many projects are full rebuilds of outdated or slow sites. I can replace poor templates with a bespoke design while keeping what works for your SEO and branding.
Do you work with businesses outside Hull?
Yes. The studio is in Kingswood, Hull, and local clients can meet or speak when helpful. UK businesses further afield are welcome - the standard and communication stay the same.
What happens after the site goes live?
You stay dealing with me directly. Hosting, updates and small changes can be handled ongoing, or you receive a site you can run with clear handover - agreed upfront so there are no surprises.
