Small Business Web Design

A Website That Actually Does Something

Most small business websites are online business cards. Nice to look at, and doing absolutely nothing for the P&L. We build the other kind: the kind that brings in enquiries while you’re asleep.

Why Your Current Site Might Be Letting You Down

A lot of small business owners come to us with a website that looks fine and does nothing. It ranks nowhere, nobody can work out what to click, and the enquiry form has had three submissions since 2023, all from bots. 

If that’s your site, it isn’t your fault. It’s what happens when a website gets built as a formality rather than as a sales tool.

We won’t tell you your old site is “nearly there.” If it isn’t working, we’ll say so, and then we’ll tell you exactly why, in plain English, not agency-speak.

Why Three Girls Media

Eighteen years is long enough to have made most of the mistakes ourselves and learned from them, so you don’t have to.

  • We’re small enough to know your name. You won’t get handed to a different account manager every quarter. Julian and the team stay on your project from brief to launch and beyond.
  • We specialise in SMEs. Not global brands with agency budgets to burn. Businesses roughly your size, with roughly your constraints, which is why our advice tends to be practical rather than theoretical.
  • We build to convert, not to win awards. A beautiful site that nobody enquires through has failed, however nice it looks in a screenshot.
  • We’re straightforward about what things cost and how long they take. No vague “get in touch for a quote” stalling. See below.
  • We stick around. Most of our clients have been with us for years, some for nearly a decade. That’s not an accident.

What We Build

Every site we design starts from one question: what does someone need to see, in what order, to pick up the phone or fill in the form? Not what looks impressive in a portfolio. What converts.

That means:

  • Real structure. Pages built around what your customer wants to know, not what you want to say.
  • SEO-ready foundations. Metadata, page speed, and structure that give your content the best chance of ranking once it’s written.
  • A build we can maintain. WordPress, so you own it outright. No platform lock-in, no monthly software tax.
  • Honest timescales. A small business brochure site typically takes 2-3 weeks from kickoff to launch. We’ll tell you if yours is likely to run longer, and why.

A Word on Content

We’re genuinely good at content: we write a lot of it, for a lot of clients, and it’s usually the difference between a site that ranks and one that doesn’t. It isn’t included in the build price below. We’ll happily quote for it separately, or work with copy you already have. We’d rather be upfront about that than have you find it buried in a scope document after signing.

What It Costs

Small business websites with us start from £1,500. What that buys depends on the number of pages, the complexity of the design, and how much of the groundwork (branding, content, photography) is already in place. We’ll give you a proper, itemised quote before you commit to anything, not a “from” price designed to get you on a call and then double.

Ongoing Support

A website that launches and is never touched again starts losing ground within months. Google notices stale sites. So do customers. We offer ongoing support and updates so the site that works on launch day still works two years later. I find this a lot easier than most business owners do, mostly because I’m not also running the business it’s for.

SMALL BUSINESS WEB DESIGN FAQs

Do I need to know how to use WordPress?

No. We build it, we can manage it, and if you’d rather learn to make your own updates, we’ll show you how.

No. We’re happy to quote for it separately, or work with content you provide. We’ll flag exactly what’s needed before the project starts, not partway through.

Good, we’ll work with it. If you don’t, we can build it alongside the site, quoted separately.

It will be built to rank: proper structure, fast loading, clean metadata. Whether it does depends on your market, your competition, and the content sitting on top of that foundation. We’ll tell you honestly what to expect before you start, not after.
