Websites that work hard for local businesses

Website design isn't just about making something that looks good, although we're very good at that too. It's about building a website that attracts customers, generates leads and makes your business look as established as the work you do.

We're based in Leicester and work with businesses right across the East Midlands, from Nottingham and Derby to Northampton, Lincoln and Rutland, for trades, nurseries, logistics firms and food brands. One team handles design, build, hosting and SEO, and every site is built mobile first because that's where most of your customers will find you.

What's included in every website

Custom design

Designed around your brand, your customers and the action you want them to take. No off-the-shelf templates.

Mobile first build

Fast on phones, tablets and desktops, with click to call and quote buttons where people need them.

SEO foundations

A page for every service, search terms mapped to each page, titles, descriptions and heading structure done properly.

AI search ready

Plain answers, structured data and consistent business details so ChatGPT, Claude and Google AI Overviews can understand you.

Analytics and Search Console

Tracking set up from day one so you can see where enquiries come from.

Redirects

If you're replacing an old site, every page that brings in traffic is mapped and redirected so you keep your rankings.

Training

A walkthrough so you can update text, photos and posts yourself.

Ownership

Once the project is paid for, the website and brand assets are yours.

From a Google search to an enquiry

Most visitors decide in seconds. Here's what your website has to do at each step, and what we build for it.

Highly recommend

Trustpilot, July 2023
I would highly recommend CL42ITY! From start to finish he understood exactly what it was we were after and came up with some great ideas. Finished product was completed within the time frame he had given and communication was brilliant. Really happy with our logo, branding and merchandise.

Website design: questions and answers

How much does a website cost in Leicester?

It depends on the number of pages, whether you need branding and copywriting, and features like booking or payments. We give a fixed written quote after a free call, and our 2026 guide to website costs in Leicester explains what drives the price.

How long does it take to build a website?

Most business websites take 3 to 5 weeks from the first call to launch. A one-page site can be live in 1 to 2 weeks and an online shop usually takes 4 to 6 weeks.

Will my website show up on Google?

Every site is built with SEO foundations, submitted to Google Search Console and set up with structured data. How quickly you rank depends on your competition and ongoing content, which is why we also offer monthly SEO and Google Business Profile support.

Can I update the website myself?

Yes. Every site comes with a simple editor and a walkthrough so you can change text, photos and blog posts. If you'd rather not, our care plans cover updates for you.

Do you host the website?

Yes. We host and manage every site we build: fast servers, security, backups, updates and support, all with one team.

Can you redesign my website without losing my rankings?

Yes. We map your existing pages, keep or redirect every URL that brings in traffic, carry across titles and descriptions, and resubmit the site to Google at launch.

Do I own my website?

Yes. Once the project is paid for, full ownership of the website and brand assets passes to you.
