Website redesign in Swindon
Keep what works, fix what doesn't, and stop your website holding your business back.
If your website looks dated, loads slowly or does not work on a phone, you may not need to start from scratch.
A redesign is often cheaper and less risky than a brand new site. If your domain name is well known, your content is worth keeping and the site is basically sound, we can rebuild the parts that are holding it back and leave the rest alone.
We start with a straight review of what you have. If it turns out a fresh start would cost you less, we will say so. You get a fixed price in writing before any work begins.

Website redesign questions
Questions about website redesign
Straight answers to what small businesses ask before redesigning their website.
A redesign suits you if your current site is on a domain people already know, has content worth keeping and works technically, but looks dated or is hard to use. A new site is better if it is not usable on a phone, is built on something you cannot update, no longer describes your business, or is slow, broken or insecure.
Send us the address of your current site and we will tell you honestly which route costs you less.
A redesign usually costs less than a brand new website, because we keep what already works. The price depends on how many pages you have and how much needs changing, and we give you a fixed price in writing before any work starts.
A free review of your current site is the quickest way to get an accurate figure.
Not if it is done carefully. The main risks are losing good content and breaking the page addresses Google already knows. We keep the content that is working and redirect old addresses to their new equivalents so your search standing carries over.
Rankings can move a little after any redesign, and we watch for problems after launch.
A typical small business website redesign takes a few weeks from the review to going live. The biggest factor is how quickly you can give feedback on the new design.
If you have a deadline, tell us at the start and we will plan around it.
Yes. We can give an existing WordPress site a new design while keeping your content and your ability to edit it yourself. We can also move your content to a simpler setup if WordPress is more than you need.
Yes. Your domain name stays yours, and we carry over any content worth keeping, tidying it up where needed. Keeping the same domain is one of the best ways to protect the search standing you have built.
We can usually still help. We will work out where your site and domain are held, help you regain access if needed, and rebuild or redesign from there.
Tell us what you know and we will explain your options.
Often, yes. An out-of-date website can quietly cost you customers who judge your business by how it looks and works. If the site is bringing you enquiries but looks tired, a redesign is usually good value.
If it is not worth saving, we will tell you.
