Website design and development

A credible front door, built properly.

Custom coded WordPress websites that load fast, read clearly and turn visitors into enquiries. Standard marketing sites are delivered in five business days once content, access and the deposit are in. We build for businesses across Cape Town, Durbanville and the wider Western Cape, and deliver remotely across South Africa.

  • Timeline: 5 business days (standard scope, conditions below)
  • No lock-in contracts
How a build runs

Brief to launch, in four visible steps.

  1. 01 Brief We agree the scope and collect your content, brand assets and access.
  2. 02 Design We settle the look and the structure before a line of code is written.
  3. 03 Build A hand coded theme in your brand, tested on real phones as it grows.
  4. 04 Launch Checks, deploy, SSL and DNS, then a walkthrough of the finished site.
How we design

We start by studying your industry and the businesses you compete with, so the site reads like it belongs in your market rather than in a template gallery. Then we design around your customers: what they need to see, in what order, before they feel comfortable enquiring. Everything is drawn mobile first, because that is how most South Africans will meet you.

  • NICHE We look at how your industry presents itself and where the good operators are being let down.
  • RELEVANCE Every section earns its place by answering a question a real buyer is already asking.
  • AUDIENCE Layout, wording and load time are chosen for the phone and the connection your customer has.
What we handle
  • Custom WordPress build, no page builders
  • Mobile-first design tuned for SA connections
  • Analytics and conversion tracking from day one
  • Hosting, SSL and Google Business Profile setup

Best fit: Businesses whose current site is outdated, slow or holding them back.

How it runs

Our approach

01

Brief and direction

We agree scope, collect your content, brand assets and access, and sign off the direction. The clock starts here.

02

Design and build

A hand coded theme in your brand, mobile first, tested on real phones as it comes together.

03

Content and SEO

Copy loaded, metadata and schema configured, tracking wired in before launch rather than after it.

04

QA and go live

Speed and mobile checks, forms tested end to end, then deploy, SSL, DNS and a live walkthrough.

The five business day build applies to standard marketing sites, not e-commerce. The clock starts once the deposit is paid, the brief is approved, and content, access and assets are in. If content or approvals wait on you, the clock pauses and we confirm the revised date in writing.

Before you ask

Questions we get asked

Straight answers

What actually makes a website fast or slow?

Speed comes down to how much a page has to download and how much work the phone has to do before anything appears on screen. Heavy image files, page builder plugins stacked on top of each other, and code that loads ahead of the content are the usual culprits. We hand code the theme instead of using a builder, compress every image, and load the visible part of the page first. On a South African mobile connection that difference is the gap between a visitor waiting and a visitor leaving.

How long does a build take, and what starts the clock?

Standard marketing sites are built in five business days. The clock starts once the deposit is paid, the scope is approved, and your content, brand assets and access are with us. If we are waiting on copy, photographs or an approval, the clock pauses and we confirm the new date in writing. E-commerce and larger builds are quoted with their own timeline.

What do you need from us before you can start?

Your logo and brand files if you have them, the words and photographs you want on the site or a clear brief so we can write them, and access to your domain and hosting. If the copy does not exist yet we can write it with you. Almost every delay on a website build comes from waiting on content, so the sooner it lands the sooner the site does.

How will we know whether the new site is working?

We install Google Analytics 4 before launch. GA4 is a free Google tool that records how many people visited, which pages they read, what device they were on, and which of them filled in a form or tapped to call. Instead of guessing, you can see how many enquiries the site produced last month and where those people came from.

What happens after the site goes live?

The build ends with a walkthrough so you know how to update your own content. Hosting, updates, backups and security sit in an optional monthly care plan, and hosting is billed at cost rather than marked up. There is no lock-in: the site is yours, and you can move it elsewhere whenever you want to.
