Web Design · Wakefield, West Yorkshire
Web design in Wakefield for small businesses that want results.
Hand-built websites for trades, shops, and service businesses across Wakefield, Leeds, Pontefract, Castleford and Huddersfield. Fast, good-looking, and designed to bring in enquiries.
What you get
A complete website package, not just a pretty page. Everything you need to show up online and turn visitors into customers.
Built from scratch
No templates. Every site is designed around your business, your customers, and what you actually want them to do.
Mobile-first design
Most of your visitors will be on a phone. I design for that first, then scale up to desktop.
Fast by default
Lightweight code, optimised images, and modern hosting. Pages load in under a second — not five.
SEO built in
Proper structure, schema markup, fast Core Web Vitals, and copy written around what your customers search for.
Secure & maintained
SSL certificate, security headers, regular updates, and backups included. I look after it so you don't have to.
Hosting included
Reliable, fast hosting with a local team on the other end of the phone if anything ever goes wrong.
How it works
No faffing about with twelve-stage processes. Just three clear steps from first chat to live site.
01
Discovery call
A 30-minute chat about your business, your customers, and what the site needs to achieve. No jargon, no pressure.
02
Design & build
I design the look, write the copy, and build the site. You'll see work-in-progress links so nothing's a surprise.
03
Launch & support
I go live, submit to Google, and hand over training if you want to update things yourself. Ongoing support is always available.
Local web design, proper local.
I'm based in Wakefield and work with businesses across West Yorkshire — Leeds, Pontefract, Castleford, Huddersfield and everywhere in between. That means:
- Face-to-face meetings when you want them
- A local phone number that's answered by a person
- Site copy that speaks to your actual customers
- Knowledge of the local market and competition
Areas I cover
"The new website is night and day. It's fast, it looks great, and the booking form actually works on a phone. Honestly, we've had more enquiries in a month than the whole of last year."
Common questions
- How much does a website cost?
- Most small business sites start from around £1,200–£2,500 depending on pages, features, and whether you need copywriting. I give a fixed-price quote after the discovery call — no surprises.
- How long does it take to build?
- A typical 5–8 page business site takes 2–4 weeks from kickoff to launch. Larger projects with custom features or booking systems can take 6–8 weeks. I share work-in-progress links throughout so you can see it grow.
- Will I be able to update the site myself?
- Yes. I build with a simple content editor and give you training. Most clients update their own text and images. If you ever get stuck, I'm a phone call away.
- Do you do e-commerce?
- Yes. Whether it's a small shop with a handful of products or a larger catalogue, I can build a clean, fast e-commerce site that handles payments, stock, and shipping.
- What about hosting and domain names?
- I can handle both, or work with what you already have. Hosting is included in my care plans, or available as a one-off yearly fee. Domain registration is charged at cost — no mark-up.
