Websites built fast and built properly.

Four kinds of build, and how to tell which one you need.

How a build actually runs.

The most common complaint we hear about previous web projects is not price or design. It is silence — a project that started well, went quiet for six weeks, and came back as something nobody recognised. The process below exists to make that structurally impossible.

1 · Scoping call

Thirty to forty-five minutes on what the site has to achieve commercially, who it is for, what exists already, and what your deadline actually is. We leave with enough to quote; you leave with an honest view of whether the budget matches the ambition.

2 · Written proposal

Fixed scope, fixed price, named deliverables, a page-by-page outline and a delivery date. Returned within 48 hours. If something is excluded, it is written down as excluded rather than discovered later.

3 · Structure before styling

We agree the page map, the content each page carries and the primary action on each one before any visual design happens. Rearranging a sitemap costs nothing at this stage and costs a week after design sign-off.

4 · Design

Key pages designed first — usually home, one service page and one conversion page — and reviewed together. Two rounds of revision are included at this stage, which is where revisions belong.

5 · Build

Development on a private preview link you can open at any time. Responsive from the first day rather than adapted for mobile at the end, because for most businesses the majority of traffic is on a phone.

6 · Content and review

Copy, images and any product or listing data loaded in. You review on the real site, on your own devices, and give consolidated feedback rather than a trickle of messages.

7 · Launch and handover

Domain, hosting, SSL, analytics and search console configured under your ownership. Handover includes a walkthrough of how to edit the site and a written record of every account and credential.

What is in the price.

Design and build

Custom layout designed for your business — not a purchased theme with the colours changed. Every page responsive across phone, tablet and desktop.

Copywriting support

We will write or rewrite page copy where you need it, or shape what you already have. Sites where the words were an afterthought are the ones that fail to convert.

Technical SEO

Clean heading structure, page titles and descriptions, descriptive image alt text, fast load times, a sitemap, robots configuration and structured data — configured during the build.

Forms and enquiry routing

Contact, quote and booking forms with spam protection, delivering to the inboxes you nominate and recording submissions so nothing is lost to a mail filter.

Analytics

Traffic and conversion tracking configured at launch, so you can see what the site is doing from week one rather than installing it a year later.

Ownership and training

You own the domain, hosting and site. Handover includes a recorded walkthrough so your team can make routine edits without calling us.

Thirty days of support

Fixes and small adjustments for a month after launch, included as standard.

What happens after launch.

A website is not a delivered object; it is a piece of operating infrastructure. Platforms update, security patches land, contact details change, a service line is added, a seasonal promotion goes up. Left alone for two years, most sites become slower, less secure and progressively less accurate about the business they represent.

Our monthly care plan covers hosting oversight, platform and dependency updates, regular backups with tested restores, uptime monitoring, SSL renewal, and a set allowance of content changes each month — new pages, price updates, staff changes, seasonal campaigns. You get a short monthly note on what was done and how the site performed. Care plans are optional and month to month; a business with an internal marketing person often does not need one, and we will say so.

Where a site needs to grow rather than be maintained — a new campaign, a content programme, a second language, ongoing social and film assets — that sits with the wider Amplifi Studio team, alongside brand, campaign, content and film work.

The businesses this suits.

Hospitality and tourism operators needing direct bookings rather than dependence on platform commissions. Restaurants and retail businesses selling online for the first time. Professional services firms — legal, accounting, medical, advisory — whose current site is a decade old and no longer reflects what they do. Contractors, tradespeople and service businesses that need a credible presence and a working enquiry form more than they need anything elaborate. Startups and founders needing a first product version in front of real users quickly. We work with clients across North America, the UK, Europe and the Caribbean, and almost every project runs remotely regardless of where the client sits.

We are a poor fit for one thing: a very large enterprise platform replacement with a multi-year roadmap and a procurement process to match. That is not the work we do well, and we will refer it on.

Questions we get before a build starts.
