Web design in Durham for businesses that want enquiries, not just a website
We design and build fast, modern websites for businesses across County Durham and the North East — sites that look the part, work properly on a phone, show up on Google and turn visitors into enquiries.
Everything a business website needs to earn its keep
Design around your customers
A clear message, a clear call to action and a look that fits your brand — designed for the people you want to win.
Mobile-first and fast
Most visitors arrive on a phone. We build light, fast pages that load quickly and work properly on every screen.
SEO foundations
Search-friendly titles and headings, local business details for Google, sitemaps, analytics and Search Console set up from day one.
Enquiry forms that work
Contact forms delivered straight to your inbox, with spam protection and tracking so you can see what’s bringing enquiries in.
Bookings & integrations
Online booking, customer portals or links into the systems you already use, when a brochure site isn’t enough.
Social media & Google Ads
When you’re ready to grow, we can run your social media and targeted Google and Meta campaigns with budgets that suit an SME.

How much does a website cost?
It depends on the number of pages and features — a straightforward business site costs far less than one with bookings or a customer portal. After a free chat we’ll give you a fixed quote, not an estimate that creeps up.
How long does it take to build a website?
A typical small business website takes a few weeks from agreeing the content to going live. Sites with bookings or integrations take longer, and we’ll set out the timeline in the quote.
Will my website show up on Google?
We build every site with SEO foundations in place — page titles, headings, local business details, a sitemap and Search Console — so Google can find and understand it. Ranking for competitive searches also takes good content and time, which we can help with.
Can I update the website myself?
Yes, if you want to. We’ll agree how you’d like to manage updates at the start — some clients edit content themselves, others prefer to send changes to us.
Do you only design websites for Durham businesses?
We’re based in Durham and work mostly with businesses across the North East, but we build websites for clients anywhere in the UK.
