ServicesWebsite Development

Websites built around your content, customers and goals.

Bespoke websites on Craft CMS, WordPress or Next.js, developed in-house and led by one technical lead from the first conversation to support after launch.

What’s included

Website Development, covered.

From marketing websites to online shops, we build around your content, customers and goals. The functionality your business needs, with a straightforward way to manage and update your site.

  1. 01

    Content modelling

    The CMS is structured around your content, so editors fill in clear fields rather than wrestle with a page builder.

  2. 02

    Bespoke front end

    Templates and components built for your site, responsive and accessible, with no off-the-shelf theme.

  3. 03

    E-commerce

    Online shops and digital products on Craft Commerce, with secure online payments.

  4. 04

    Integrations

    CRMs, recruitment feeds and third-party APIs, connected so information flows in and out without retyping.

  5. 05

    Multisite

    Several brands or business units run from one installation, each with its own content and design.

  6. 06

    Speed, search and access

    Fast pages, clean markup, structured data and accessible components as standard.

Platforms

What we build with.

CRAFT CMS
For content-rich sites that need a flexible structure and a clean editing experience.
WORDPRESS
When you need its ecosystem or your team already knows it. We build bespoke themes and plugins rather than relying on page builders.
NEXT.JS
For sites that sit alongside an application or need a fully custom front end.

Questions

Common questions.

Which platform should we use?

It depends on your content, your team and what the site needs to connect to. Craft CMS suits content-rich sites that need a clear structure. WordPress suits teams who already know it or need its plugins. Next.js suits sites that work closely with an application. We recommend one during discovery and explain why.

Can you redesign our existing site?

Yes. We review what you have, migrate the content worth keeping, and set up redirects from old addresses so you keep the search rankings you have built up.

Do you work with agencies?

Yes. We work with design and marketing agencies as their development partner, building from their designs and working alongside their team.

Will we be able to update the site ourselves?

Yes. The CMS is set up around your content, and we walk your editors through it at launch. You only need us for new features, not new pages.

How much does a website cost?

It depends on the scope: the number of page types, integrations and how much content needs moving. We quote each project once we understand what it needs. Get in touch with an outline and we will come back with questions and a likely range.

Do you host websites?

We manage hosting on proven, managed platforms as part of our support, including domains, SSL certificates and DNS.
