Birmingham & the West Midlands
Web design for Birmingham businesses that need the website to earn its keep.
We're based in Sutton Coldfield and work with businesses right across Birmingham and the wider West Midlands. No city-centre studio, no account managers — just a website built to bring in work, priced up front.
The commercial reality
Birmingham is competitive. Looking decent isn't enough.
Whatever you sell, someone within ten miles sells something similar and has been online longer. On any given search you're up against:
Established local firms
Twenty years of reputation, a fuller review profile and a website that's been indexed since before you registered the company.
Directories and lead platforms
Often occupying the results above you, then selling your enquiry to three of your competitors at once.
National companies
Bigger budgets, broader coverage, and no particular interest in whether they're the right fit for a Birmingham customer.
Paid advertising
Sitting above the organic results, which means your listing has to be more convincing, not just present.
Local businesses who did the work
The ones with proper service pages, real reviews and a profile they actually maintain.
So the website has to do six things properly.
Credibility inside one screen
Nobody scrolls to decide whether you're legitimate. Name, offer, proof, contact — visible immediately.
Services explained separately
Blended service pages lose to specific ones, both with buyers comparing options and with search engines matching intent.
Proof that isn't adjectives
Finished work, named clients where permitted, genuine reviews, accreditations. Claims cost nothing, so they persuade nobody.
Mobile that was designed, not squashed
Most Birmingham searches happen on a phone. If the mobile version is an afterthought, that's the version that loses the enquiry.
One obvious next step
A single clear action per page. Call, enquire, book. Not four competing buttons.
Search foundations from day one
Structure, headings, internal links, metadata and speed built in during the build rather than retrofitted.
Small-business focus
Built for owner-managed businesses, not procurement departments.
Larger agencies are set up for larger clients: layers of account management, discovery phases that bill before anything is built, and a scope document that grows every time you ask a question. That model exists because big organisations need it.
You almost certainly don't. You need to speak to the person doing the work, know the price before you commit, and have the site live this quarter rather than next year.
You'll deal with us directly for the whole project, and afterwards.
Website options
New build, or make the current one work harder?
If there's nothing decent in place, a new build is the cleaner route — see web design for how we approach it.
If you already have a site with history, traffic or rankings, the right conversation is a website redesign — which starts by working out what's worth keeping.
Either way, the pricing page shows exactly where you'd sit before you speak to us.
Search visibility
Covering a city without building three hundred postcode pages.
Birmingham is dozens of districts, and the tempting shortcut is a page for each one with the name swapped. It reads badly, it's obvious, and it tends to dilute the pages that could have ranked.
What works better: strong pages for each service, a small number of genuinely distinct location pages where you have real presence and real work to show, plus internal links that make the relationship between them clear. Add a properly maintained Google Business Profile and reviews, and the local signals come from substance rather than repetition.

Relevant work
What each project demonstrates.
These are our own projects across the West Midlands and beyond. We've labelled what each one shows rather than claiming they're all Birmingham businesses.
Structure around how people search. Subjects and levels split into their own pages so each search intent has somewhere to land.
