We describe what we do as "start to finish" — but what does that actually involve? Here's the full journey of a website project, and why having one team handle all of it makes life easier.

1. Domain & hosting

It all starts with the foundations: securing the right domain name and setting up fast, secure hosting. These are the address and the engine room of your site — get them right and everything else runs smoothly.

2. Design

Next we shape how the site looks and works — the layout, the visual style and the user experience. This is where your brand and your customers' needs come together into something clear and considered.

3. Build & develop

We turn the design into a real, working website: responsive across devices, fast to load, and easy for you to manage. Your content goes in, and everything is tested until it's ready for the world.

4. Launch & SEO

On launch day we take the site live and submit it to Google and the major search engines, with Analytics and your Google Business Profile set up so you can be found from day one.

The launch isn't the finish line — it's the starting line.

5. Support & maintenance

Websites need looking after. We keep yours updated, secure and backed up, make changes when you need them, and keep optimising for search — all as part of a simple monthly agreement.

Why one team matters

When the same team handles every step, nothing falls through the cracks between suppliers. You get one point of contact, one invoice, and one team that understands your whole project — from the first conversation to long after launch.
