Small business website design in Sussex & Hampshire
South Coast Apps designs and improves small business websites, landing pages and service sites that do more than just look tidy. The goal is a clearer customer journey: better messaging, stronger contact paths, local SEO foundations, and a setup that fits the way your business actually runs behind the scenes.
Sometimes that means a new website. Sometimes it means improving what you already have. The review is there to work out which is the sensible move.
We’re a good fit if you want a practical, outcomes-first website or landing page - not a design exercise that is hard to update and disconnected from the rest of the business.
If you mainly need somebody to fix staff laptops, printers or office Wi-Fi, we are not the right partner. If you want your website and the systems around it to quietly support the business better, we probably are.
Standards
Different businesses need different shapes of site, but there are a few non-negotiables we include by default.
Common project shapes
These are common patterns we see after the review. Exact pricing lives on the pricing page, because the point is to confirm the right scope before you commit budget.
New businesses, simple services, or teams that need a cleaner online presence without a sprawling build.
Established businesses that need the website to explain services properly and support more of the right enquiries.
Teams using bookings, payments, CRMs or internal workflows that need the website to join up properly with the rest of the business.
These are project shapes, not rigid packages. We’ll confirm whether you fit neatly into one of these or whether a more custom scope makes better sense.
Process
A calm four-step process designed around busy owners and small teams. No mystery phases, no endless scope creep.
A short video or phone call to understand your business, audience and current setup. No charge, no hard sell - just a sense-check that we’re the right fit.
You book the £49.50 Business Tech System Review. We review your content, goals, tools and structure, then send a short plan with a recommended scope and fixed quote.
We ship a first slice - often the homepage and one key customer path - so you can see tone, layout and flow before the rest is built out.
Go live with monitoring, local SEO basics checked and a short handover. You can stay on a care plan for edits, tweaks and quarterly improvements.
FAQs
We review your current website or idea, your goals, your content, and the customer journey around the site - from first visit to enquiry, booking, payment or follow-up. You receive a short write-up with options, risks and sensible next steps. If you go ahead with a project, the £49.50 fee is usually credited against your first invoice.
No. A lot of projects start with improving an existing website rather than rebuilding from scratch. If your current setup can be improved sensibly, we will usually recommend that before suggesting a rebuild.
We use a small, well-tested design system as a base, then tailor the structure, content and components around your business. That keeps things faster and more maintainable without you paying for endless reinvent-the-wheel design work.
Yes. We’ll either wire in a lightweight CMS or agree which parts you want to update yourselves and which should stay fixed. You also get a short handover and Loom walkthrough so future you is not left guessing.
Yes. We can purchase or transfer domains, configure DNS and SSL, and get Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace pointed at the right place. We look after the website and the cloud services around it, but we are not a general IT helpdesk.
Yes. That usually includes page titles, meta descriptions, heading structure, schema, tracking, Search Console setup and alignment with your Google Business Profile where relevant. It is the sensible foundation work, not vague promises or shortcuts.
If content and decisions are ready, simpler brochure-style websites can often go live within 1–2 weeks. More involved scopes with multiple services, booking flows or integrations are usually more like 3–5 weeks. We’ll agree a realistic timeline during the review before you commit.
Every build includes a period of fixes and small tweaks after go-live. Many clients also choose an ongoing care plan for content edits, monitoring, quarterly reviews and light improvements so the site does not quietly go stale.
