For small & medium-sized businesses

Fast websites that turn visitors into enquiries.

We design and write your website for you, have it live in two to three weeks, and make it quick and clear enough that more of the people who find you actually pick up the phone.

The trouble with most small-business sites

Most small-business websites aren't broken. They're just slow, vague, and quietly losing the people who were ready to call.

Someone finds you on their phone, between jobs, on patchy 4G. If the page stalls, or they can't tell at a glance what you do and how to reach you, they tap back and the next result gets the call.

A good website fixes that at the root. It's quick, it's clear, and it always shows the way to get in touch. That's the whole job, and it's the only thing we build.

§1 What we do

One small team for the whole site.

One team handles the design, the words and the launch, so you're not chasing a designer, a copywriter and a web person while trying to run your business.

  1. 01

    Design

    A site that shows your business at its best on a phone, which is where most of your customers will find you.

  2. 02

    Words

    Plain, confident copy that says what you do, who it's for and why you, within the first five seconds.

  3. 03

    Speed

    Pages that open quickly even on an old phone with one bar of signal, so customers don't give up and ring someone else.

  4. 04

    Enquiry paths

    Call buttons, short forms and directions placed where people make up their minds, so nobody has to hunt for how to reach you.

  5. 05

    Found locally

    The groundwork Google needs to show you to people searching nearby, set up properly from day one.

  6. 06

    Launch & care

    We sort the domain, hosting and the technical bits, and the €49/month care plan keeps it all running, so you never have to think about it.

§2 Why speed and clarity matter

Every second costs you customers. The research is consistent.

You don't have to take our word for it. Here is what Google, Deloitte and others have measured, with links to each study.

How bounce probability rises with load time Compared with a page that loads in 1 second. Source: Google/SOASTA research, 2017 (Think with Google, archived) (opens in a new tab)
  1. +32% at 3 s
  2. +90% at 5 s
  3. +106% at 6 s
  4. +123% at 10 s
Google's "good" mark: ≤ 2.5 s

Compared with a 1-second load, bounce probability rises 32% at 3 seconds, 90% at 5 seconds, 106% at 6 seconds and 123% at 10 seconds.

Google's own bar for a "good" page is that the main content appears within 2.5 seconds (opens in a new tab). We build to beat that comfortably on a mid-range phone, because that's what your customers are holding.

§3 Measured, not claimed

Don't take our word for it. Test this page.

These numbers come from your own browser, measured as this page loaded. If a page this rich can load this fast, yours can too. To see more of how we work, try the six concept sites in our portfolio.

§4 How it works

Five steps, and the last one leads back to the first.

A website isn't finished at launch. We build it, watch how people use it, and keep improving what brings in work.

  1. 01

    Talk

    A short call about your business, your customers and what a good enquiry looks like for you. You'll get honest advice even if the answer is "your site is fine".

  2. 02

    Plan

    We map the pages, the words and the routes to getting in touch, then agree the scope and a fixed quote before any work starts.

  3. 03

    Design & write

    You see real pages with real words early, rather than a mood board. Tell us what's off and we change it.

  4. 04

    Build & launch

    We build it, test it on real phones, connect your domain and enquiry form, and go live, usually within two to three weeks of our first call.

  5. 05

    Improve

    We watch where enquiries come from, fix what isn't pulling its weight, and the loop goes round again.

Start with step 01 A short call. No obligation, no hard sell.

§5 Who it's for

Built for the businesses that keep a main street going.

Bakeries, carpenters, salons, clinics, florists and trades: if people find you on their phone and then call, message or walk in, we build for you.

Illustrations of the kinds of business we work with, not client projects.

§6 What you get

Everything it takes to go live, and all of it is yours.

One clear price, no surprise bills and no lock-in. The website, the words and the domain belong to you.

  • Full ownership of everything we make for you.

§7 Questions

Straight answers.

How much does a website cost?

One-page sites start from €850. Bigger sites are quoted after a short call.

Every project gets a fixed quote, agreed before work starts, so there are no surprise invoices.

How long does it take?

Most sites go live within two to three weeks of our first call.

The biggest variable is usually feedback time, so we'll give you a launch date at the planning stage and tell you what we need from you, and when.

Do I need to write anything?

No. We interview you, then write the copy ourselves. You check it for accuracy and tone, and we make the changes. Photos of your work are always welcome, and we'll tell you which ones would help most.

Can I see examples of your work?

Yes. Our portfolio has six complete concept sites, so you can see how we think and try them for yourself. The businesses in them are fictional. This page is a working example too: it's measured live above, and you can test it with Google's own tools.

I already have a website. Can you improve it rather than start again?

Often, yes. Sometimes a rewrite and a speed fix are all a site needs. We'll look at what you have and tell you honestly whether a rebuild is worth the money.

Can I update the site myself?

You don't need to. Small changes, like new prices, opening hours or photos, are included in the €49/month care plan. Send us a message and we'll do it, so you can get on with running your business.

If you'd like to update pages yourself every week, tell us on the call and we'll find a setup that suits you.

Who owns the website?

You do: the website, the words, the images we make for you, and the domain, registered in your name. If you ever want to move on, you can take it all with you.

Will I show up on Google?

Every site is set up to give Google what it needs to show you to local customers: fast pages, clear wording about what you do and where, and the behind-the-scenes details done properly. Nobody can honestly guarantee rankings, and you should be wary of anyone who does. We'll also show you how to set up your Google Business Profile, which matters a lot for local search.

What happens after launch?

Our care plan is €49/month. It covers hosting, updates, small changes and a quarterly check-in, where we look at what's bringing in enquiries and what could bring in more.

That's the "improve" step of the loop: your site keeps earning its keep, and you don't have to think about it.

§8 Start a project

Let's close the loop.
