Edinburgh has no shortage of web designers. What's harder to find is bespoke design, honest SEO and a price you can see before you pick up the phone. That's what we do.
Working together
Working with an Edinburgh business from Glasgow
We're a Glasgow studio, under an hour from Edinburgh by train, and we work with Edinburgh businesses mainly by video call and email. It suits busy owners: no meeting rooms to book, no travel, and you can review designs on your own devices in your own time.
If meeting in person would help, just say so and we'll see what we can arrange. Otherwise, you'll get the same thing our Glasgow clients get: one point of contact, a firm plan before we start, and the person who built your site looking after it afterwards.
Who we help
Who we help in Edinburgh
Edinburgh's small business scene is sharp, well-established and very competitive online. These are the businesses we're best placed to help:
Professional and financial services
Edinburgh is one of the UK's big centres for finance and law, and smaller firms are up against well-funded names. A clear, credible site with straightforward explanations helps independent advisers, accountants and consultants hold their own.
Independent shops and makers
From Leith to Stockbridge to Bruntsfield, Edinburgh's independents trade on personality. A distinctive site that's easy to update keeps your stock, events and opening hours current.
Hospitality and visitor businesses
With visitors arriving all year, and in huge numbers each August, cafés, restaurants, tours and places to stay need sites that cope with busy periods and answer visitors' questions before they ask.
Start-ups and new ventures
New businesses need to look established from day one without spending their whole budget on a website. Our Starter plan gets you online properly, and you can grow into Growth or Premium later without starting again.
Health, fitness and wellbeing
Practitioners, studios and clinics need sites that reassure new clients, explain what to expect and make booking simple.
Edinburgh, squared
An affordable website for a small Edinburgh business
Edinburgh prices for a bespoke site can climb quickly. Ours are published and the same across Scotland, and every plan includes custom design rather than a template. Starter covers a clean, professional site of up to 5 pages. Growth adds the SEO and analytics that help you compete in a crowded market.
For a fuller picture of what websites cost and what drives the price up or down, read our guide to small business website costs in Scotland.
Competing in a crowded search market
Broad searches like "web design Edinburgh" or "accountant Edinburgh" are fiercely contested. Small businesses usually do better by being the best answer to more specific searches: the neighbourhood you serve, the exact service you offer and the questions your customers ask.
That's how we plan Growth and Premium sites: realistic keyword targets, one clear job per page, and monthly reporting so you can see which pages are bringing in enquiries. If your current site isn't competing, a website redesign can rebuild it on a stronger foundation.

If you'd find it helpful to meet face to face, just ask when you get in touch and we'll see what we can arrange.

Can you redesign our existing Edinburgh website?
Yes. We'll keep your domain and what's working, redirect old pages to new ones, and rebuild the site to be faster, clearer and easier to manage.
