Small Business Web Designer in Peterlee
Many Peterlee companies are stuck with sites that load slowly, feel cluttered and never seem to produce real enquiries. They were built quickly on WordPress or a DIY builder and have been left alone ever since. We take a different approach by writing your site in clean HTML, CSS and JavaScript so it loads quickly and actually helps you win business across Peterlee and East Durham.
Custom Code Instead of WordPress Templates
WordPress and page builders offer speed for the agency, not for your visitors. They rely on heavy themes and multiple plugins that slow every page down and create constant maintenance work. Our sites are written line by line for your business. There is no spare code, no plugin stack and no guessing where a problem is coming from.
Less Bloat, More Control
With a custom build we decide exactly what goes into your site. Forms, galleries and layout are all handled with code we understand and can edit instantly. There are no surprise theme updates and no plugin licences to worry about.
Fewer Things That Can Break
Every plugin in a WordPress stack is another moving part. When one fails, the whole site can behave strangely. A static site removes that problem and gives you a stable base that works the same way every day.
Speed That Helps Peterlee Businesses Win Enquiries
When someone in Peterlee taps your link in Google, you have a very short window of time to show them something. If the page hangs for a few seconds they back out and call someone else. A clean, fast site earns you more enquiries without changing anything else in your business.
Faster Pages, Better Behaviour
Static sites open much faster than template builds because there is no database work and no stack of plugin scripts to wait for. That lower waiting time means people are more likely to read about your services, look at your work and decide to contact you.
Improved Search Visibility
Search engines measure how quickly your pages respond and how easy they are to load on mobile. Good scores in these areas help you appear higher when people search for services in Peterlee, Horden, Easington and Castle Eden.

Websites Built Around Peterlee’s Business Types
Different businesses need different layouts and different priorities. We shape the design around the work you actually do and the customers you want to attract.
Trades and Local Services
Plumbers, electricians, decorators and other trades need simple, direct sites. Clear service descriptions, strong imagery and obvious ways to call or send an enquiry. We cut the noise and keep the focus on getting booked.
Shops and Independent Retailers
Local shops need to show what they sell, where they are and when they are open. We create layouts that highlight your products without slowing down the site and make it easy for people to visit in person.
Food, Drink and Hospitality
Cafés, takeaways and restaurants around Peterlee need to show menus clearly and make ordering or booking easy. We give customers the information they need quickly so they can decide and act without frustration.
Professional and Office-Based Services
Accountants, consultants and similar businesses need a calm, confident online presence. We use simple layout and clear wording to build trust and encourage people to get in touch about their situation.
Long-Term Stability Without Ongoing Maintenance Work
WordPress sites slow down and become fragile as themes age and plugins pile up. Our static builds stay consistent year after year because there is nothing to update on a weekly basis. You get a fast site without having to babysit the technology.
Simple Monthly Pricing for Peterlee Businesses
Our websites are supplied on a simple monthly plan. You pay £125 per month with no upfront fee. That price includes the build, hosting, ongoing improvements and content updates. You can find more details on our pricing page.
