Website redesign for UK businesses.

Does your website need a fix, a redesign or redevelopment?

The first decision is how much needs changing. A clear problem list helps you compare quotes and avoid paying for a rebuild when a smaller change would solve the issue.

Migration and additional functionality are priced after assessment. Bring the same problem list to every quote so you can compare equivalent work.

Start with the problem your customers experience

A fresh colour palette may be part of the work, but the brief starts with what is getting in the way. Are prices difficult to find? Do visitors miss the booking button? Have your services changed? Share the pages that confuse customers and the questions you answer repeatedly.

We agree what needs improving and what already works. If a few content or mobile usability changes would meet your needs, targeted website improvements can be discussed before committing to a complete rebuild. For a replacement, we organise the proposed pages around a clear visitor journey.

Keep the useful parts of your current website

Before design starts, identify the pages, photographs and text you want to keep. A service page that customers already use should have a clear place in the new structure. Existing booking links, contact routes and downloads also belong in the handover list.

We confirm your access to the domain, hosting and content, and which external services the website relies on. Existing customer accounts, order histories or appointment records need their own migration plan; they are not treated as ordinary page content.

Plan the change from old pages to new pages

Where possible, useful page addresses can stay the same. If an address must change, we identify the relevant replacement and plan a permanent redirect. Internal links, canonical URLs and the sitemap should describe the new structure consistently.

If your site already attracts local searches, include its service and location pages in the inventory. For a Manchester or Wolverhampton business, the important evidence is which existing pages receive relevant visits and enquiries. Share a Search Console pages-and-queries export if available, so we can identify pages to preserve or improve. Removing them simply because the design is changing can discard useful information.

Significant changes can cause temporary search fluctuations. We check the agreed pages after launch and confirm the Search Console arrangements for the domain. Google’s site-move guidance explains URL mapping and monitoring.

Agree the launch checks before the handover

• Review the agreed pages and navigation on phone and desktop layouts.
• Check service information, prices and contact details against the approved brief.
• Test enquiry buttons and the agreed booking connection.
• Check important existing links and any planned redirects.
• Confirm domain and email arrangements before changing website settings.
• Record hosting coverage, renewal arrangements and how future changes will be handled.

A replacement website is published after you approve it. The one-week build target starts once the content and scope are ready; additional migration dependencies may need a different timetable. Read the full launch and payment process.

Plan the move before replacing your site

Use our page inventory, illustrative URL mapping table and launch checklist to agree what stays, what moves and who checks email, bookings and enquiry delivery.

What to send us for a redesign brief

• Your current website link and the platform it uses, if you know it.
• The main issue you want to solve and the action visitors should take.
• Pages, content and booking tools you want to keep.
• Your current services, approved photographs and updated price information.
• Any important launch date and who manages your domain and email.

Start with the website link and a short explanation. Account access can be arranged privately once the work is agreed.
