Business websites
Clear service pages, location information, helpful answers and enquiry routes. A structure that makes it easy for visitors to understand what you offer.
WEBSITE DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT
Clear design.
Solid foundations.
Business websites, WordPress and bespoke development from an independent designer with 30 years of experience. Built around what your customers need to do next.
START WITH THE JOB IT NEEDS TO DO
A website that earns its place.
A good business website balances presentation with practical detail. We work out what you need to explain, what visitors are looking for and how the site will be maintained after launch.
WordPress & content management
A manageable editing experience for businesses that want to update their own content, with a considered choice of themes, plugins and hosting.
Bespoke development
Custom forms, booking journeys, dashboards and business tools can be scoped around your existing processes. We’ll discuss what needs building and what an existing service can already do.
Existing website improvements
From layout and navigation to performance and fault finding. Targeted improvements can often make an established website more useful without starting again.
IN PRACTICE
All Ironed Out
A service website with postcode coverage checks and online booking, designed to connect a national brand with the local service a customer needs.

A CLOSER LOOK
The details behind the design.
| Area | What it means for your business |
|---|---|
| Responsive HTML & CSS | Layouts are designed for different screen sizes, with readable content, usable navigation and image dimensions that help avoid layout shifts. |
| Technical SEO | Clean page structure, descriptive headings, page titles, canonical URLs, appropriate structured data and a sitemap. Existing URLs and redirects are considered during a rebuild. |
| Performance | Right-sized modern images, restrained scripts and suitable caching. A CDN can be configured on the hosting platform where it suits the site. |
| Accessibility | Semantic page structure, labelled controls, keyboard navigation, visible focus states and contrast form part of the design work. |
| Development & launch | For dynamic projects, we review PHP and database compatibility, integrations, backups and deployment steps. Testing covers the important customer journeys. |
USEFUL TO KNOW
A few questions, answered.
Can I update the website myself?
Yes, if a content-management system forms part of the brief. We’ll agree which areas you want to edit and choose a practical setup rather than adding complexity you don’t need.
Can you work with my existing hosting?
We can review it. You can also choose Oceanic’s 20i-backed hosting, from business and WordPress packages through to managed cloud and VPS options.
Do you provide the content too?
We can help organise and improve your wording. You provide the business knowledge, service details and any required approvals; we turn that into clear pages with useful next steps.
