Website Design and Development

Your website is often the first conversation a customer has with your business. We design and build custom websites for businesses in Cape Town and across South Africa: sites that load quickly, work properly on a phone, are set up for Google from the start, and make it easy for visitors to get in touch or buy. Every website we build is a custom build for your business. We don't resell templates. You get a design based on your brand, content written or edited for your customers, and a site you can update yourself afterwards.

What's included in a website project

• Custom design for your brand, planned around the pages and actions that matter to your business.
• Mobile-first, responsive build that works on phones, tablets and desktops.
• Speed optimisation so pages load quickly on South African mobile networks.
• On-page SEO: page titles, meta descriptions, headings, a sitemap and Google Search Console set up, depending on the package.
• Contact forms and calls to action that send enquiries straight to your inbox.
• Training and handover so you can edit text, images and blog posts yourself.

Websites for every kind of business

• Small business websites: professional, affordable sites for owner-run businesses that need enquiries.
• E-commerce websites: online stores on WooCommerce or Shopify with South African payment gateways.
• Shopify websites: Shopify store setup, themes, apps and migrations.
• Industry websites for accommodation, schools and restaurants.

Need more than a website? We also build iOS and Android apps and can connect your site to an app.

Platforms we build on

We choose the platform around how you'll run the site, not the other way round.

• WordPress for business websites and blogs you want to update yourself. WordPress has a large plugin ecosystem and many South African hosts support it.
• WooCommerce for online stores built on WordPress, with full control over products, shipping and payment gateways.
• Shopify for stores that need a hosted, low-maintenance setup with built-in checkout and inventory.
• Custom builds for web apps, portals and sites that need specific functionality or very high performance.

How a website project works

1. Brief. We learn about your business, customers, competitors and goals, and agree what pages and features the site needs.
2. Design. We design the key pages and refine them with you until you're happy.
3. Build. We develop the site, add your content, connect forms, analytics and Search Console, and test it on different devices.
4. Launch. We put the site live, submit it to Google and check that everything works on your domain.
5. Support. We're available for changes, and our website maintenance plans keep your site updated, backed up and secure.

Built for Google from the start

A good-looking site isn't much use if nobody finds it. We set up the technical basics that Google's own guidance asks for: crawlable pages, unique titles and descriptions, clean URLs, a sitemap, fast loading and a good mobile experience. If you want to grow your traffic after launch, our SEO services and Google Ads management can help.

Based in Cape Town, working across South Africa

Our team is based in Milnerton, Cape Town. We meet Cape Town clients in person when it's useful and work with businesses in Johannesburg and the rest of the country online. You can see some of the sites we've built in our work.

Questions about website design

How long does it take to build a website?

Our packages are delivered in 14 to 30 days depending on the package, once we have your content. Express delivery in 7 to 10 days is available as an add-on.

Will I be able to update the website myself?

Yes. We build on platforms you can edit, and we show you how to change text, images and blog posts at handover.

Do you write the content?

We can. Website copywriting is available as an add-on, and our content marketing team writes blog articles and page copy.

Do you offer monthly payment plans?

Yes. If you'd prefer a lower upfront cost, ask about our monthly website plans when you contact us.
