Business websites

Website design for Manchester and Stockport businesses

Most visitors decide within seconds whether to call you or go back to the search results. We build websites that win those seconds for Manchester and Stockport businesses, then host and maintain them for one fixed monthly fee.

What we build websites around

Instantly clear

The first screen says what you do and where you work, in the words your customers would use.

Phone first

Local searches happen on mobiles, so we design for a thumb on a small screen before a desktop.

One tap to call

Your number and enquiry form within reach on every page, and forms tested so enquiries actually arrive.

Quick on a weak signal

Lean pages and properly sized images, so the site still loads on a bus through Stockport.

Search-friendly structure

Every page has one job, a title that says it and headings that search engines can follow.

Honest

Real photos and accurate details about your business, as you supply them. No invented reviews or claims.

How a new website comes together

  1. Talk about your business

    Your customers, the areas you cover and the work you want more of.

  2. Agree the page plan

    A list of pages and the purpose of each, signed off by you before any design work.

  3. Design and build

    We build the website and test it on real phones and computers.

  4. Your sign-off

    You check everything on your own phone and computer and approve it before launch.

  5. We look after it

    Hosting, backups, maintenance and your monthly updates carry on after launch.

Replacing an old website

If you already have a website that is slow, awkward on a phone or out of date, a redesign can be built on any package. We record where each old page address should point, so existing links and search rankings carry across, and we build the new site alongside the old one so nothing changes for visitors until you approve the switch.

We built and run this website ourselves. Timescales, and the terms for ownership and ending a plan after the minimum term, are set out in your written proposal before you commit.

Questions

Is there really nothing to pay upfront?
Yes. Every package is £0 upfront. You pay the monthly fee plus VAT for at least 12 months.
What counts as a content update?
A small change using the website as built, such as new text, prices, opening hours or a few photos you supply. New page designs, new features or large amounts of new writing are quoted separately.
Can you build an online shop?
Online shops, portals and membership systems sit outside the packages. We are happy to quote for them separately.
Do you only work with Manchester businesses?
Our focus is Manchester and Stockport, but websites do not depend on distance, so we can work with businesses elsewhere too.
