Website design.

Your website could be a simple brochure website OR it could be a powerful tool to elevate your business. At b:web, a leading web design agency, we specialise in creating stunning, user-friendly websites that engage customers and set you apart from the competition. Your website can be a powerful platform to generate sales leads, unify your team, streamline internal processes, and integrate advanced marketing solutions.

Our website design process.

The primary objective of your website project is to create a bespoke solution that truly represents your business and highlights its unique selling points (USPs). Every design decision is guided by thorough research, strategic planning, and the Website Specification, combined with insights from your current website and our extensive experience working with similar businesses.

Our approach to web design and development follows a proven process, but what sets us apart is our flexibility. While many agencies stick rigidly to their frameworks, we treat ours as a guideline, allowing us to revisit earlier stages if we see opportunities for improvement. This means you won’t be locked into decisions that can’t be adjusted later – we keep the process fluid to ensure continuous optimisation throughout the project.

Discovery Workshop

In the Discovery Workshop, we dive deep into your business to fully understand its unique needs. We’ll discuss your team, operations, company history, customers, and goals, as well as your likes and dislikes. Together, we’ll evaluate your current website and analyse your competitors to uncover opportunities for growth and differentiation.

Website Audit

Our comprehensive website audit examines every critical aspect of your current site. From SEO performance and user experience to traffic, page speed, and conversion rates, we identify strengths and areas for improvement. This ensures your new website is built on a foundation of clear, actionable insights.

Competitor Research

We conduct an in-depth review of your competitors’ online presence, including their websites, social media strategies, and visibility on search engines and other digital platforms. This analysis helps identify opportunities to set your business apart and create a stronger online presence.

KPIs

To position your business effectively online, we work collaboratively to define clear goals for your project. We’ll plan the structure, content, and design of your new website while setting measurable KPIs to track success and ensure the project delivers meaningful results.

Specification & Sitemap

We will write a detailed Website Specification to include: sitemap, content structure, page layout, site architecture, customer journey, and calls to action. It serves as a roadmap for the entire project, and you’ll have the chance to review and refine it to ensure it meets your exact requirements.

Project Management

Your project will be overseen by a dedicated expert from our design and development team. Using Monday.com, we’ll break the project into manageable deliverables aligned with the Website Specification. This ensures a smooth, organised workflow and keeps you informed every step of the way.

Website Prototype

We begin by creating a prototype of the main navigation and homepage including the header and footer to illustrate the overall direction. Generally we present this as a working prototype so that you can get a better feel for the mobile responsiveness and how the website will flow through the planned sitemap.

Full Website Design

Upon approval of the homepage design, we will proceed to design the full website with all inner pages and mobile versions. We may use draft or dummy content at this stage, we will discuss with you the best cause of action.

Website Development

Our development process begins with a blank canvas, refining every element to deliver a clean, standard-compliant solution. This approach ensures the website meets Google’s requirements for page speed and mobile optimisation. SEO-friendliness, GDPR compliance with a cookie popup, and fast-loading pages are prioritised to create a high-performing, user-focused website.

WordPress content management

We develop your website as a bespoke WordPress design. WordPress is the world’s leading content management system, commanding over 60% of the market share due to its user-friendly interface, which simplifies content management even for those with minimal technical knowledge.

Website content & SEO

Google has created and maintains a document which clearly outlines what type of content ranks well on search engines. We will work with you to ensure that the content strikes the perfect balance for your audience and adheres to EAT (Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness) guidelines.

For most projects, we will upload all content to the new website, including on-page SEO elements such as metadata, descriptions, headings, images, and page text. You can provide the content in any format that allows us to copy and paste, or we can extract it from your current website if preferred.

Once the initial content is uploaded, you will be able to make further amendments easily with our support.

If you require more advanced SEO services, such as keyword research, keyword monitoring, content creation, monthly reporting, or ongoing strategy, we can discuss these options as a one-off project or as part of a continuous SEO improvement programme.
