Our website looks older than our business.→ A site that matches the work
Your business, online and looking its best.
We design and build fast, clear websites for businesses of every kind: built for phones, easy to find and simple to update. A fixed price, live in weeks, and yours to keep.
We build the website your business has outgrown.
Most growing businesses are better than their website says. We make it look the part, say clearly what you do, and make getting in touch the easiest thing on the page.
People visit, then nobody gets in touch.→ Built to turn visits into enquiries
We can’t change a thing without paying someone.→ Edit it yourself, or ask us
Six things every good site gets right.
Built around what your customers need to see before they pick up the phone. Nothing on the page that doesn’t earn its place.
See engagementsA look that’s yours
Designed around your brand and your customers, with a homepage you approve before anything else is built.
Copy that sells
Clear words about what you do and why you, written with you from a short brief, not left as lorem ipsum.
Fast on every phone
Most visitors are on a phone. Every page is built for small screens first and tested on real devices.
Found on Google
Proper page titles, speed, structure and your Google Business Profile linked up, so people can find you.
Every lead reaches you
Contact forms, click-to-call, bookings or a shop, all landing in your inbox, with simple visitor stats.
Looked after
Hosting, security updates and small changes on a simple monthly plan, if you’d rather not touch it.
From a few questions to live.
Small and agreed in writing before anything starts. You see the homepage design before a single page is built.
01
Brief
A short form about your brand, then a call: your goals, your pages and the sites you like.
02
Design
Your homepage designed first. You review it, we refine it, with two rounds of changes included.
03
Build
Every page built, written and tested on phones, tablets and desktops.
04
Launch & care
Live on your domain, checked on Google, then optional monthly care.
Built properly, handed over clean.
A website is often the first thing a customer sees. These rules go into every site we build.
Fast by default
Light pages and properly sized images, so the site opens quickly even on a weak signal.
Phones first
Designed for the screen most visitors use, then scaled up for tablets and desktops.
Readable by everyone
Clear contrast, sensible text sizes and pages that work with screen readers.
Ready for Google
Page titles, descriptions, structure and speed done properly from the start.
You own everything
Your domain, your hosting account, your files. If we stop working together, it all stays with you.
No surprises
A fixed price and a written scope before we start. Anything extra is quoted first.
Built on tools that last.
We pick the platform that suits how you’ll run the site, not the one we happen to like. Everything plugs into what you already use.
We’ll tell you plainly on the first call which platform suits your business, and what it costs to run.
Why a studio, not a template.
A template is quick to start and slow to finish. The hard part of a website is knowing what to say and how to get people to act on it.
| Question | A DIY site builder | A big agency | nghtshft web |
|---|---|---|---|
| Getting going | Evenings and weekends, for months | Long proposals and long waits | Live in about four weeks |

| The words | Whatever you find time to write | Often extra, or left to you | Written with you from a short brief |
| Cost | Cheap, until you count your time | Big projects, big invoices | A fixed price, agreed up front |
| If it ends | Stuck on their platform | Hard to change without them | Your domain, hosting and files |

What owners ask first.
Anything else, ask in the form and we’ll answer before any call.
How long does it take?
Most sites go live about four weeks after your brief. Bigger sites, shops and bookings take longer, and we’ll give you a date before we start.
What do you need from me?
Answers to a short brief about your brand, a call, your logo if you have one, and some photos. We write the words with you, so you don’t start from a blank page.
Can I update it myself?
Yes. We build on platforms you can edit, and show you how. If you’d rather not, the Care plan covers small changes each month.
Do you sort the domain and hosting?
Yes. We set them up in your name, or work with the ones you already have. You own them either way.
We already have a site. Can you redesign it?
Yes. We keep what works, like your address, your Google ranking and your best pages, and rebuild the rest.
Your new site starts here.
Four quick steps. If we’re a good fit, you can pick a time straight away.
