What you get

What our Canterbury web design service includes

A Canterbury business has two audiences at once: locals and visitors. A good site speaks to both without trying to be everything. This is what it needs to do.

Built to generate leads

Your website has one job: get people to contact you. Every page, button and line is there for that reason.

Search engine optimised

If people cannot find you on Google, a website is a business card nobody asked for. We set the basics up properly.

Fast loading

You have about two seconds before someone leaves. Our pages load fast, which helps visitors and rankings.

Mobile optimised

Open your own site on your phone. Does it work? Ours do, every one, because that is where your customers are.

Secure and maintained

Hosting, SSL, updates and monitoring are part of your plan. Nothing for you to think about.

Fair monthly pricing

No big upfront bill. A one-off setup fee, then a simple monthly price you can plan around.

Sites we have built

Canterbury customers check online before they walk in

Few cities have as many visitors for their size. Tourists arrive at the cathedral, the Westgate and the river and decide where to eat, stay or shop with a phone in their hand. Add students from the university and the colleges, and a large local population, and nearly every first contact starts with a search.

That is good news if your listing and website are clear, and costly if they are not. A café with no menu online, a guest house with no prices or a shop with no opening hours loses people to the next result in seconds.

We build Canterbury sites to answer the visitor's questions straight away: where are you, are you open, what does it cost, how do I book. Everything else comes after that.

Hospitality, retail and services each need their own layout

A guest house needs rooms, rates, photos and a booking route. An independent shop near the high street needs a clear picture of what it sells and when it is open. A tutoring or student services business needs reassurance and an easy enquiry form.

So we ask about your customers first, and build the page from that. The words are written for you, and the pictures are chosen to suit your trade rather than dropped in from a template.

Canterbury, the coast and the villages

Plenty of Canterbury firms also work out towards the coast. Whitstable and Herne Bay are the places we add most often, and Sturry and Chartham for businesses on the villages side. Naming them helps people there see you are close, without us stuffing the page with a list.

Questions

Web design Canterbury: frequently asked questions

What does a Canterbury website cost?

There is no build cost. You approve the homepage design, then pay from £57 a month for hosting, domain, SSL, backups and support. The full price list is on our prices page.

Can the site work for visitors and locals together?

Yes. We put the practical information first, such as location, hours and prices, so a visitor can act at once. Local customers get the detail further down the page.

Do you build sites for B&Bs and holiday lets?

Yes. We can add rooms, rates, photos and a link to your booking system, or a simple enquiry form if you prefer to confirm by email.

Will the site look right on a phone?

Yes. Most Canterbury searches are on a phone, so we design for that screen first and then check it on tablets and desktops.

How long until my Canterbury site is live?

Usually 10 working days from the day you send the form. Most of the time saved comes from us writing the content for you.

Can you help us rank for Canterbury searches?

Yes. SEO is a separate plan: Local SEO at £340 a month, SEO Plus at £840, or hourly from £40. There is no setup fee when we built your website.

Still not sure? Ask us anything, we answer in plain English.
