£? honest quote, no surprises

Yes, this one needs a quote.

We've built things like:

  • Online shops with custom checkout flows
  • Booking systems with payments + calendars
  • Member areas, portals, staff dashboards

Quote in writing, every line itemised. No mid-project surprises.

No "starting from" trickery. The price above is the price you pay. Need something custom? We'll quote it in writing before any work starts.

David - web designer in Ayrshire

Hi, I'm David.
I'll be the one designing, building, and answering the phone.

I've been in the tech industry for over a decade. I've worked on all sorts of stuff: tiny personal sites, massive enterprise apps that run credit checks, and plenty in between.

I've been paid in dollars, euros, and pounds along the way, so I've seen how things work in a few different corners of the world. I've also spent time teaching software skills to people who wouldn't otherwise get the chance, which is genuinely good for the soul.

I love what I do. The tech, the problem-solving, and helping you actually get something out of it all.

If that sounds like what you're after, the callback form is below. Fifteen minutes, no sales pitch, no obligation - just a chat about what you actually need. I'm terrible at sales anyway, naturally, being a technical guy ya' know.

What Ayrshire owners say once the site's live.

"Where do I start? This is not your average web designer! This is not a generic coder! This is someone with a true passion for what they do..."

Every question we get asked, answered straight.

If your question isn't here, text it to 07510104110 or email me. There are no daft questions and no daft answers either.

Are the websites you make generated by AI?

No. We understand the technology at a fundamental level and we use mostly Python and JavaScript with a few premium design libraries that we bought licenses for, to speed up the process.

There has been an increase in pop-up businesses offering AI generated sites recently. So proceed with caution. They are often put together by someone without a deep grasp of the fundamentals, leading to security issues and bugs that they can't solve. Or even understand.

If you want an expert, use us, we are reasonably priced.

If you want to save money, just use AI by yourself. Here's a guide to get started: Build a Website With AI For Free

Is AI involved in any part of the process?

Yes. It would be silly to reject AI as a tool to accelerate our workflow, so we use it in a careful ways. We never get it to generate entire projects, but we use it to help with checking copy and often use what's known as "AI-Assisted Development" techniques. We understand the technology we use and can easily review anything the AI generates.

Is the price on the page actually the price?

Yes. The figure shown for each package is what you pay - design, hosting for year one, SSL, content, the lot. The only way it changes is if you ask for something not on the list (extra pages, a custom booking system, a logo redraw). We quote those in writing before any work starts.

How can the yearly hosting be so cheap? - I have been quoted way more.

Well, not to give away any trade secrets here, but we use servers that require a lot of setup that frankly other designers have no interest in dealing with. David has a number of professional years in the DevOps industry, so setting up these servers are a walk in the park for him.

Do I have to write the content myself?

No - and this is the bit everyone else makes you do. Copywriting is included up to a generous word limit on every package. We draft it from a 30-minute interview, you edit it. Most clients change about 10%.

Will I be able to update it myself afterwards?

It depends. This would be discussed during the 30 mins we spend with you. The websites we build are fully custom which makes them very good for Google, but if you did need to update the content yourself we can build this in relatively easily. The real question is - will you use it?

How long does the whole thing take?

Starter: 2–3 weeks for the mock up. Standard: 3–5 weeks for that mock up. The slow bit is usually waiting on photos or feedback - once we have everything, the build is fast.

What if I already have a domain or hosting?

Brilliant - we usually transfer the domain over to us, but that's up to you. Hosting would be on our servers, we use a lot of Python and this can be tricky to host elsewhere. If you don't have a domain or hosting, we can handle that for you. Also if you prefer to own your domain on an account you control, we can buy and instantly transfer that over.

What if my business is brand-new and I haven't traded yet?

That's actually a great time to do a site - we can build it as you launch and get you on Google Business from day one.

Do you do SEO and Google Ads as well?

Basic on-page SEO with OpenGraph image links and Google Business setup are included. We can get you set up on advertising platforms, but we generally don't run Ad campaigns on your behalf within the budget on the set price. Give us a shout if you'd like to discuss this further.

Can I pay monthly instead of upfront?

Yes. Every package has a 12-month split shown beside the headline price. No interest, no credit checks, no extra fees - we just spread it. 50% upfront / 50% on launch is the other option.

Why should I pick you over others?

Honest answer: three reasons. (1) The price on the page is the price on the contract - not 'starting from'. (2) The copy gets written for you, which is usually where projects stall. (3) You're talking to the person who'll be designing, building and supporting the site, from the server to the frontend code - not a salesperson handing you off.

15 minutes. No pitch.
Just a straight chat.

Leave your number and when suits, and I'll ring you back. We'll talk about what you're trying to do, what a sensible budget looks like, and whether I'm actually the right person for it. If I'm not, I'll tell you who is.

  • No obligation, no sales script.
  • Talk to the developer, not an account manager.
  • Honest answer on whether you need a £1,128 site, a £2,268 one, or something custom.
