Our 3 Steps To Success
Design Consultation
Before we even provide a quote, we'll take you through a complete design consultation to understand your business requirements, your target market, and your end goals.
Making sites that speak to your audience!
Design Mock-Ups
After a (refundable) deposit has been paid, we'll give the designers your brief to begin designing your website in Photoshop. This phase ensures you really like what you see.
Don't like our design? Get a full refund!
Development Phase
Once mock-ups are approved by you, we'll move from the design to the development. Gathering all the info we need to build your actual working website on our server.
Then after revisions, it's time to launch!

Frequently Asked Questions
Will I own my website?
Absolutely, it’s all yours. You will own every inch of your website and are free to do with it as you please.
How long does it take to build a website?
Every project varies greatly, but we aim to have mockups to the client within one week of the deposit being paid, with sites built and over to you for revisions within 2-3 weeks of the mocks up being approved. If you need it faster than this, please let us know.
How do I know what my website will look like?
This is where phase 2 of our 3 steps to success comes in. We will create near pixel-perfect mock ups of your homepage before we begin building it. This will give you a very good idea of what the final site will look like across all pages.
Are there any monthly running costs?
We generally tell clients host websites themselves, this keeps your costs down but also gives you full ownership of your website to allow anyone to work on it in the future.
It also avoids messy migrations down the line.
The cost of your yearly domain ownership renewal will be approx £15 a year.
Small basic hosting is typically enough for most small/medium businesses and only costs around £50-£70 a year.
What is the average cost of building a website?
This is a very difficult question to answer that we get asked often so we'll do our best to give you some examples.
A small 3 page website for a dog walker with a homepage, about me and contact page would likely be in the range of £500-£700.
A typical 5 page website for a building firm, with a homepage, services, about us, contact us and portfolio would likely cost in the region of £900 - £1600.
An e-commerce store that is selling products online and requires online payments, email receipts .etc, would likely cost in the region of £3000-£5000.
Again, please know that these are just ballparks, every client requires something a little different which makes it impossible to provide set packages for.
I don't have any text or images for my site yet...
Don't worry, you're not alone.
Many businesses starting out don’t have a large folder of professional images readily available to them, nor do they have paragraphs of text they can use.
If you provide us with information about your business, such as your services, ethos .etc, we have professional content writers on stand-by that can provide much of the basic text and we can license stock imagery for a small extra charge.
Can I update the website myself?
You will have full access to the backend of the site so you’re free to makes changes as you please. That said, websites can be quite complex and easily broken if someone starts tinkering that doesn’t know what they’re doing.
It’s highly recommended that you use us or find someone with experience to make your changes, especially design wise.
We’re happy to provide training on the use of the news/blog/portfolio if it’s a feature you’d like to use, as this is a useful place for you to share news and updates with your visitors and customers on a regular basis.
Are there any monthly running costs?
If we’re simply building your website, what you’re quoted is what you pay. No hidden charges or monthly fees, nada, nil, zero.
However please be aware that you will be liable for the yearly domain name ownership renewal (around £15 a year), as well as the monthly hosting costs (which can be as low as £5 a month)
Professional Hertfordshire Based Web Designers
Many clients looking for web design in Hemel Hempstead or Hertfordshire that contact us have existing websites that were built in 90’s or early 00’s.
Having been built before many new technologies were available, they suffer from not only being extremely out-of-date visually, but are also ignoring important on-page search engine optimisation techniques, damaging their chances of appearing in organic search results.
With over 50% of internet searches, especially local searches in the Hertfordshire area now made from a mobile device, it means over half of your customers are arriving on your website via phones and tablets.
Mobile friendliness is a must have feature for any modern Hertfordshire web design, how does your stack up?
