Sheet 11 · Service 01 · Websites

Custom websites built around what your business actually does.

Multi-page or single-page sites for businesses of every size, from independent operators and service providers to established companies. Hand-built, SEO-aware, and designed to look like you — not like a theme.

A What you actually get in a custom website build

Six stages · every site

  1. 01

    Discovery

    Workflow-first discovery

    Who you serve, what you sell, where leads come from. The sitemap comes from that, not a template.

  2. 02

    Concept

    Real concepts before code

    Structure, key pages and tone, seen before the build, while changes are cheap.

  3. 03

    Build

    Hand-built, semantic markup

    No page-builder bloat, no fifteen plugins. Clean HTML and CSS that loads fast and stays maintainable.

  4. 04

    SEO

    SEO-friendly from the start

    Titles, descriptions, schema, sitemap, robots.txt and a real plan for indexing.

  5. 05

    Forms

    Forms and lead capture that work

    Wired to email or your CRM, with spam protection and the right confirmation.

  6. 06

    Launch

    Launch and handoff

    Domain, DNS, hosting and email if you need it. Docs another developer could pick up.

B Where custom websites work best

A good fit

  • Businesses that have outgrown a template or Squarespace.
  • Service providers who need the site to actually generate leads.
  • Owners replacing a site they inherited and can’t update.
  • Anyone who doesn’t want to look like every other site in their industry.
  • Online stores: e-commerce built into a custom site, or a custom theme for hundreds of products that stays on Shopify.
  • Complex corporate sites: many pages, departments and the systems behind them.

Probably not a fit

  • A store a standard Shopify theme would serve better at your budget. If that’s the better route for your business, we’ll tell you, every time.
  • Deadlines of “this weekend, cheapest possible.”
  • Volume content over substance.

A site that looks like you, not like a theme.
