What We Handle for Web Design & SEO Clients

Planning Around Search Intent

We start with the searches your customers actually make, then shape the site structure, service pages, and calls to action around those commercial terms.

Website Build or Redesign

We design and build modern websites for small businesses, or rebuild older sites that are slow, confusing on mobile, or not generating enquiries.

Local SEO Foundations

Every project includes the basics that help Google understand your business: page titles, headings, internal links, structured local signals, and sensible page architecture.

Conversion-Focused Pages

We prioritise clear service explanations, visible phone and quote actions, and page layouts that help visitors decide quickly instead of bouncing.

Google Business Profile Support

Where local search matters, we align the website with your Google Business Profile so your service information, location signals, and contact details work together.

Hosting and Ongoing Support

We can host, maintain, and improve the site after launch, so you are not left chasing separate suppliers whenever content, performance, or SEO needs attention.

Process

How a Typical Project Runs

Simple steps to get your problem solved quickly and professionally.

1

Audit & Scope

We review your current website, goals, service mix, and local search priorities so the brief is based on business needs rather than guesswork.

2

Structure & Copy Plan

We map the key pages, local targets, offers, and calls to action before design starts, so the site is organised around real customer intent.

3

Design & Build

We create the site with mobile-first layouts, strong service detail, fast page delivery, and local SEO essentials built in.

4

Launch & Improve

After launch, we help with tracking, Google Business Profile alignment, and the next round of SEO or content improvements if you want to grow further.

What Is Included in a Typical Build

Most web design and SEO projects need the same commercial foundations: clear positioning, easy mobile use, and pages that help both Google and real people understand what you do.

  • Core pages planned around your services, locations, and contact goals
  • Mobile-first layouts that stay usable on smaller screens
  • Page titles, headings, and metadata aligned to commercial search intent
  • Service-page structure that makes quotes, calls, and contact actions obvious
  • Basic tracking and Search Console-ready setup
  • Straightforward editing workflow for future updates

If you need booking, ecommerce, or more complex integrations, we scope those separately rather than forcing them into a generic package.

The Local SEO Foundations We Build In

Local SEO works best when it is built into the site structure, not bolted on after launch. We focus first on the work that makes a site easier to crawl, easier to understand, and more relevant to local commercial searches.

Page targeting

We separate broad service intent from town-specific intent so pages are less likely to compete with each other.

Internal linking

Relevant service, town, blog, and case-study pages link together so authority flows through the funnel.

Local trust signals

We align the website with location coverage, contact details, and supporting proof such as case studies and testimonials.

Technical basics

We check crawlability, mobile usability, metadata consistency, and the structure Google needs to interpret the site cleanly.

For ongoing campaigns, we add content updates, technical fixes, and reporting on top of those foundations.

When a Redesign Makes More Sense Than Small Fixes

Some websites need targeted improvements. Others are held back by the structure itself. A redesign is usually the better route when the current site makes every future change harder or more expensive.

  • Your pages are difficult to use on phones or tablets
  • The site has no clear service-page structure for SEO or conversion
  • Important calls to action are buried or inconsistent
  • Content updates depend on a developer for every small change
  • The site looks acceptable but is not producing local visibility or enquiries

We will tell you when a lighter improvement pass is enough. Not every site needs a full rebuild.

What Ongoing SEO Support Looks Like

After launch, the best next steps are usually content refinement, technical maintenance, and stronger local proof. Ongoing support keeps the site current instead of letting rankings and conversion paths decay.

  • Title and metadata improvements for pages already earning impressions
  • New supporting blogs or case studies tied to service intent
  • Town-page updates where local demand is emerging
  • Google Business Profile support and content alignment
  • Hosting, maintenance, and practical monthly check-ins

We keep the work focused on useful commercial improvements rather than producing content for its own sake.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you only work on brand new websites?
No. We regularly redesign older sites that are slow on mobile, difficult to update, or not producing leads. If the current site can be improved sensibly, we will say so.
Is SEO included in the website build?
Yes. Every build includes the local SEO foundations: page targeting, metadata, heading structure, internal linking, and a site architecture that supports search visibility. Ongoing SEO after launch is optional.
Can you help if I already have hosting?
Yes. We can work with your current hosting if it is fit for purpose, or move the site to a setup that is easier to support and performs better.
Do you build websites for service businesses only?
Service businesses are a strong fit because local search and enquiry flow matter so much, but we also work with consultants, studios, trades, and other small businesses that need a practical sales-focused site.
Can you help with Google Business Profile as well?
Yes. Where local search matters, we align the website and Google Business Profile so your categories, service messaging, and contact details support each other.
How long does a typical project take?
Straightforward brochure-style business websites usually move faster than larger redesigns with more content or restructuring. We scope the timeline around your pages, approvals, and whether the project includes wider SEO or migration work.
What do you need from me to get started?
Usually the essentials are your services, target areas, existing site or examples you like, brand assets if you have them, and a sensible idea of what a successful enquiry looks like for your business.
What happens after launch?
You can take over the content yourself, or keep us involved for hosting, maintenance, SEO improvements, and content support. We recommend the next steps based on the live site rather than locking you into work you do not need.
