Web design · Portsmouth
Web design in Portsmouth that brings in work.
I'm a Portsmouth web designer building custom, fast-loading websites for local businesses, from trades and garages to cafés, salons and studios. Designed to look the part and built to turn local searches into enquiries.
Featured project
Why Portsmouth businesses need more than a template.
When someone in Southsea needs a plumber, or someone in Cosham is looking for an MOT, they search on their phone, look at two or three websites and contact whichever one feels most trustworthy and easiest to deal with. That decision takes seconds.
A template site or a DIY builder can get you online, but it rarely gets you chosen. A custom site lets you lead with what makes you different, put your reviews and real photos where they count, and make getting in touch effortless on a phone.
That's what I build: websites designed around how your local customers actually choose, then built so they load fast and give Google everything it needs to show you in local searches.

Portsmouth FAQs
Web design in Portsmouth, answered.
Can we meet in person in Portsmouth?
Yes. I'm based in Portsmouth, so you are just down the road, so I'm happy to meet in Portsmouth to talk through your project. Plenty of clients prefer a quick video call, which works just as well.
Will my site help me show up in Portsmouth searches?
Every site is built with local SEO foundations: Portsmouth and your service area on the right pages, LocalBusiness schema, fast load times and a structure Google understands.
Can you redesign my existing website?
Yes. If your current site looks dated, is slow, or just isn't bringing in enquiries, I can redesign and rebuild it, keeping what works (like existing Google rankings and URLs where possible).
Do you only work with trades?
No. Trades and local services are a big part of my work, but I design and build for cafés, salons, studios, shops and professional services too, plus branding and social content for all of them.
