Web Design | That Earns Its Keep

Imagine a website that sells for you while you're on a job, asleep, or sat with the family.

Not a brochure that looks nice and does nothing. A site built to turn visitors into booked work.

A website that’s found, not forgotten

A good-looking site that nobody can find does nothing for your business. Every site we build is set up right from day one, clean structure, fast page speeds, mobile-friendly, so it stands a real chance of being found. Here’s the kind of shift a site built to be found makes.

Before
#22

Stuck on page two…

Position 22, and a site that loaded slowly and broke on a phone. Plenty of effort, no enquiries, the website existed, but it wasn’t earning its keep.

After
#1

Phone won’t stop!

Rebuilt lean and mobile-first on solid foundations, the same business climbed to position 1, around 30% of everyone searching now lands on a site that actually converts them.

335

Before, 3 of every 100 searchers were reaching this client. After a site built fast, mobile-ready and found, 35 out of 100 do. Same business, same market, a website finally earning its keep.

Web design that makes a difference

Web Design | Design Lincs

We build websites the other way round, judged on whether they bring in enquiries, sell things, book appointments, or whatever your business actually needs. Looking the part comes as standard; earning its keep is the bit we care about. Built for speed, mobile-first, fast-loading, no hidden fees, and yours to keep at the end of it.

A glimpse of the work

Sharp on desktop, seamless on mobile

Every build is designed for the desktop and the phone at once, fast, clean and made to turn visitors into enquiries.

Fast, Optimised, Built Around Your Business

We build for speed first. Every site is optimised to load in around a second, score highly on Core Web Vitals, and stay fast as it grows. Depending on what you need, that’s a lightweight static build or a WordPress site you can edit yourself, never a bloated theme that drags your rankings down.

+

Whether you need a simple five-page brochure site, a service business with online booking, a trades site that turns local searches into phone calls, or a full online shop, we build it fast and optimised, static or WordPress, whichever genuinely suits the job.

+

The design is bespoke. None of our sites looks like a cookie-cutter template, because they aren’t: we design around what your business does, who your customers are, and what you want them to do on the page.

Fast, Mobile-Ready, Built to Be Found

Three things separate a website that works from one that just exists: it loads fast, it works as it should be on a phone, and it stands a chance of being found on Google.

+

Speed matters because nobody waits, four seconds to load on 4G and half your visitors are gone. We build lean code, compressed images, and hosting that doesn’t crawl.

+

Mobile matters because that’s where the vast majority of your visitors are. And every site ships with clean URLs, decent on-page basics and the technical foundations SEO needs, so you’re never starting in a hole.

Why us

Why businesses choose Design Lincs | for website design

No mystery, no fluff, here's what you actually get when you work with us.

You Own Your Website. Completely.

Some agencies build on platforms that quietly lock you in, proprietary builders, hosting you can’t take with you, a CMS only they can edit. Decide to switch, and you find out you don’t really own much.

Ours aren’t like that. Your site, your domain, hosting that’s ours or yours, your call, and full access. If you ever wanted to walk, you’d take everything with you.

It’s a small detail that says a lot about how an agency works. The ones who lock clients in usually have a reason. We don’t.

Who We Build Websites For

A lot of our work is small business web design, sole traders, family-run firms, people running on a site their nephew built in 2014 who’ve finally decided it’s time.

We do plenty for tradespeople, electricians, plumbers, builders, roofers, landscapers, who want a site that converts local searches into phone calls and stays out of the way of the actual job.

And we work with bigger businesses too: real marketing departments, multi-location operations, e-commerce that needs to shift product. The same care goes into a £1,500 brochure site as a £15,000 build, the brief just gets bigger.

Web design | straight to the point

How a website project works

01

A conversation

A phone or video call, or face-to-face if you’re nearby. What your business does, who you sell to, what’s not working now, and what success looks like for the new site. No charge, no commitment.

02

A written proposal

What we’d build, why we’d build it that way, how long it’ll take and what it’ll cost, no jargon, no hidden extras. You’ll know exactly what you’re agreeing to.

03

The build

Design first, sign off, then development. We show you progress at clear stages so there are no surprises. Most sites take four to eight weeks from kick-off to launch.

04

Launch & aftercare

We handle going live, then you’re in control. Manage it yourself (we’ll show you how) or let us handle updates, hosting and maintenance. No long contracts, no hidden retainers.

  • Faster load times keep more visitors on the page and moving toward an enquiry
  • Google rewards genuinely fast, well-built sites with better rankings and cheaper clicks
  • Built mobile-first, because that is where most searches now happen

Working with Darren has been an absolute pleasure. Professional, creative, and his technical expertise exceeded all expectations. He’s changed our website completely and we’ve had so much feedback and leads since.

By far the best referral I’ve ever had. Completely hassle free, transformed our website, traffic, rating and emails. Nothing is ever too much, and everything moved so smoothly you wouldn’t have known anything was happening.

Used Design Lincs for our web design and SEO and couldn’t be happier. Done quickly but at an amazing standard. Great service, would absolutely recommend.

Jessie Davey
Rated 5 out of 5

From the first call they actually listened to what we wanted, and the finished site looks miles better than before. Quick to respond, fair on price, and sorted a couple of tweaks after launch without any fuss.

They didn’t just make it look nicer; they thought about how customers use the site and rebuilt it around that. Brilliant communication throughout, a massive step up. Highly recommend.

Mark Justin
Rated 5 out of 5

They built us a new website and took over our digital marketing, and the difference has been night and day. Our calls are up and the whole experience was easy. Highly recommended.

Frequently asked questions

Just some FAQs about our web design services

How much does a website cost?+

It depends on the brief. A simple five-page site for a sole trader is a different league to a multi-section site with online booking, a blog and an integrated CRM. You’ll always get a clear, written quote up front, no “starting from” figures that triple once you’ve signed off. Most of our small business sites land between a few hundred pounds at the basic end and several thousand for fuller builds.

Is your website design affordable for a small business?+

It’s meant to be. We work with sole traders and small teams most weeks, so we price around real small business budgets rather than big agency retainers. You get a clear written quote for your project, no lock-in contracts, and you own the site outright once it goes live. If money’s tight, say so, and we’ll find a sensible place to start rather than sell you things you don’t need.

How long does a website take to build?+

Most projects run four to eight weeks from sign-off to launch. The biggest variable usually isn’t us, it’s how quickly content (text, photos, logos) comes back from your end. If you’ve got everything ready, we move fast. If you need help with copy or photography, we can sort that, and the timeline stretches a bit. Either way you’ll get a realistic timescale in writing first.

Can I update the website myself once it’s live?+

Yes. When your site is built on WordPress you’ll be able to edit text, swap images, add pages, run a blog, and update services and prices, all without needing us. We’ll walk you through it after launch. If you’d rather we handled it, that’s available, but it’s your call, not a contractual obligation.

Do you handle hosting, or do I sort that myself?+

Either. We offer fast, UK-based hosting at sensible monthly rates if you’d like everything in one place. Or host with whoever you like and we’ll set things up there. Some clients prefer keeping it separate, either way works.

Can you redesign my existing site instead of starting from scratch?+

Often, yes. If the bones of your current site are reasonable, a redesign is usually quicker and cheaper than a full rebuild. If it’s on a slow, bloated platform that’s holding you back, or so out of date that patching costs more than starting fresh, we’ll tell you straight. We won’t sell you a rebuild you don’t need.
