Service

Bespoke websites, hand-coded to fit.

No WordPress. No Wix. No Squarespace. Just a website designed from scratch around your business, built on Laravel, and yours to keep forever. Faster than a template site, safer than a plugin stack, and considerably better looking than whatever your competitors pulled off a theme marketplace.

What's in the box.

Custom design

Designed around your brand, your content, your customers. Not a theme with your logo dropped in the top-left corner.

Laravel codebase

A modern PHP framework with a 12-year track record. Maintainable, extensible, and still going to be a mainstream stack in ten years' time.

Built-in CMS

Edit your own text, images and pages from a clean admin area. No WordPress wizardry required.

Proper SEO baked in

Structured data, sitemaps, canonical URLs, Open Graph, Core Web Vitals — all done properly, not sold to you as an add-on.

Fast & accessible

Typically 95+ on PageSpeed. WCAG-aware by default. No cookie banner nonsense unless you actually need one.

Managed hosting

Hosted on Laravel Forge + DigitalOcean. Daily backups, SSL, deploys handled. You get a URL and an invoice — nothing else to manage.

Bespoke website questions.

The questions that come up most when people are deciding between a template platform and a bespoke build.

How long does a bespoke website take to build?

Typical business website: 2-4 weeks from brief to launch. More complex builds with custom functionality can run 4-8 weeks. You'll get a realistic timeline with the quote, not a fantasy one.

Can I edit my own content after launch?

Yes. Every site I ship comes with a clean admin area. You edit text, swap images, add pages and publish updates yourself. No plugin updates, no compatibility headaches.

What if I need changes down the line?

I'm still around. Most of my clients call me when they want changes and I either fold it into their monthly support or quote it as a mini-project. No offshore ticket queue — just me.

Do I actually own the site?

Yes, completely. The code is yours, the content is yours, the domain is yours. If you ever wanted to take it to another developer, you could — though I hope you won't.

Thinking about a bespoke site?

Have a look at recent client case studies, or tell me about your project — no hard sell, no obligation.
