Before we begin
Your web design questions.
How much does a website cost?
Brochure websites start from £2,500 + VAT and e-commerce websites from £3,500 + VAT. Every project is individually quoted, because the cost depends on the scope: the number of pages, design requirements, content and any features such as an online shop or integrations. A clear brief helps establish what you need and what to prioritise, so a quote can reflect your business rather than a one-size-fits-all package.
How long does a website take to build?
Timing depends on the size and complexity of the website, along with how ready your content and photography are. Agreeing the scope, key milestones and feedback stages at the start helps set a realistic schedule and keep the project moving.
Will my website be mobile-friendly?
Yes. Responsive design adapts your website to phones, tablets and desktop screens, with attention to readable text, straightforward navigation and usable forms. Testing across screen sizes helps ensure customers can browse and enquire comfortably.
Will my website be SEO-friendly?
Search-friendly structure, descriptive headings, mobile responsiveness and performance are considered during design and development. These foundations help search engines understand your content, but visibility also depends on useful content, competition and ongoing work; no search position can be guaranteed.
Do you build mobile apps as well as websites?
Yes. Mobile apps start from £3,000 + VAT. Where it suits the brief, we can build with web technologies such as React and Capacitor for iOS and Android. Features, device capabilities and app store submission are scoped individually, and store approval is decided by Apple and Google.
