Small Business Websites
Website Design for Small Businesses Across the UK
Your website should work as hard as you do. I build professional, mobile-first websites for small businesses that look credible, load fast, and help you get found by the right customers.
The problem
What Most Small Business Websites Get Wrong
A bad website costs your business more than no website. Here’s what I see most often — and what I fix.
Not Mobile-Friendly
More than 60% of visitors are on a phone. If your website doesn’t work well on mobile, you’re losing more than half your audience immediately.
Too Slow to Load
Every second of load time costs visitors. Slow sites rank lower on Google and have higher bounce rates — a double problem.
Invisible on Google
A website that can’t be found is just an online brochure nobody reads. SEO foundations need to be built in, not bolted on.
No Clear Call to Action
Visitors don’t know what to do next. Good design guides people towards an enquiry, a call, or a purchase — naturally.
Template That Looks Generic
Website builders produce websites that look like thousands of others. A custom design immediately sets your business apart.
Security & Maintenance
Outdated plugins, no backups, expired SSL certificates. An unmaintained website is a liability, not an asset.
