How a page comes together

From blank page to live site.

Scroll through the five stages every page goes through before it reaches your customers.

01 · Structure

Plan what goes where

We start with layout and content hierarchy, what people need to see first, and what comes after.

  • Sitemap
  • Wireframes
02 · Design

Give it your look

Typography, colour and imagery from your brand, applied consistently to every page type.

  • Brand styles
  • Components
03 · Content

Fill it with real words

Real copy and images go in early, so the design is tested against what you actually need to say.

  • Copy
  • Images
  • CMS
04 · Speed

Make it quick

Images are compressed, code is split and pages are cached, so the site appears almost instantly.

  • Core Web Vitals
  • Caching
05 · Launch

Go live safely

Redirects, analytics and security checks, then the switch to your domain, with nothing left to chance.

  • HTTPS
  • Redirects

FAQ

Common questions.

Something else on your mind? Ask us directly. A real person will reply.

Ask a question
Can we update the website ourselves?

Yes. We set up a content system with the page types you need and show your team how to use it.

Will we lose our Google rankings in a redesign?

Not if it’s done carefully. We map old pages to new ones, set redirects and keep what’s already working.

Do you build web apps as well as websites?

Yes, from simple marketing sites to logged-in portals and dashboards that connect to your other systems.

Who owns the code?

You do. On completion you get the code, the accounts and the documentation.

Can you look after the site after launch?

Yes. We offer ongoing maintenance, updates, backups, security patches and improvements, on whatever schedule suits you.
