Hand Coded Website Packages for UK Businesses

Every website we build is hand coded from scratch — no WordPress, no page builders, no off-the-shelf themes. Our web design packages are built on Google Firebase, which means lightning-fast load speeds, rock-solid security, and Google-quality infrastructure at a fraction of the cost of traditional hosting. We write every line of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript ourselves, which gives you a site that's leaner, faster, and far easier to rank on Google than anything built on a bloated CMS platform.

Our packages start from £899 one-off for a hand coded Starter site and scale up through the Growth tier at £1,899 — with Stripe payments, Xero invoicing and an AI chatbot — to full E-Commerce builds from £3,500. Every package includes full mobile responsiveness, on-page SEO, Google Analytics 4, contact forms, and free support for the first month after launch. No hidden fees. No surprise add-ons. From year two, hosting and support is £29–£79/mo. Not sure which tier fits? Our guide to how much a website costs in the UK breaks it down.

We work with small businesses, tradespeople, retailers, and service providers right across the UK — from our base in Newport, South Wales, we've built sites for clients in web design Cardiff, web design Swansea, web design Bristol, web design Bridgend, web design Caerphilly, web design Pontypridd, and beyond. Every site is different because every business is different. That's why we don't do templates and we never will.

Want to see what a hand coded site looks like compared to a WordPress one? Run any of our client sites through Google PageSpeed Insights alongside a competitor built on WordPress and the difference is stark. Speed matters for SEO. Speed matters for conversions. Speed matters, full stop. Our SEO services, Firebase development and AI marketing expertise are baked into every package we offer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Web Design Styles & Packages — Your Questions Answered

What website design styles do you offer?

Ten original hand-coded styles, from Neon Brutalist and 8-bit Arcade to Luxury Editorial, Acid Yellow Geometric and 3D Objects. Every one is built from scratch in HTML, CSS and JavaScript on Google Firebase — no templates, no themes. Pick the style that fits your brand or we'll design a brand-new one just for you.

Can I get a custom design that isn't one of your styles?

Yes. The ten styles on this page are examples of what hand-coding lets us do, not a fixed menu. If none of them fit, we design a bespoke style around your brand, colours and customers from scratch. Because nothing is templated, a custom look costs no more than picking an existing style — it's all coded by hand either way. Get in touch and tell us what you're after.

Which website style is right for my business?

It depends on your sector and the impression you want to make. Law firms, consultancies and architects suit the stripped-back Monochrome Brutalist look; restaurants and heritage brands suit Editorial Serif; beauty and premium retail suit Luxury Editorial; construction, trades and fitness suit the bold Acid Yellow style; SaaS and fintech suit 3D Objects. Tell us your trade and we'll point you at the right one.

How much do web design packages cost in the UK?

Our web design packages start from £899 one-off for a hand-coded Starter site. The Growth package, with Stripe payments, AI chatbot and Xero invoicing, is £1,899, and full E-Commerce builds start from £3,500. All packages include Google Firebase hosting, SEO and mobile responsiveness. From year two, hosting and support is £29–£79/mo. We're based in Newport, South Wales and work with businesses across the UK. See our website cost guide for the full breakdown.

What is a hand coded website?

A hand coded website is built from scratch using raw HTML, CSS, and JavaScript — no WordPress, no page builders, no bloated templates. Every line of code is written by a developer, which means faster load speeds, better SEO, tighter security, and a site that does exactly what you need. Our hand coded websites consistently score 95–100 on Google Lighthouse for performance.

Why choose hand coded over WordPress for my small business?

WordPress sites are slow, insecure, and need constant plugin updates. A hand coded website for your small business loads in under a second, scores top marks on Google, and never needs a plugin patch at 2am. For small businesses in Wales especially, where local SEO is competitive, a fast hand coded site gives you a real edge over competitors using WordPress templates. It's also cheaper in the long run — no monthly plugin fees, no security vulnerabilities, no faff.

What's included in your website design packages?

Our web design packages include: hand coded HTML/CSS/JS build, Google Firebase hosting, custom domain setup, full mobile responsiveness, on-page SEO, Google Analytics 4 integration, contact forms, AI chatbot (on Growth and up), Stripe payments and Xero invoicing (on Growth and E-Commerce), Google Search Console submission, and a free first month of support. All built bespoke for your business — no templates, no WordPress, no nonsense.

Do you build e-commerce websites in South Wales?

Yes — we build fully custom e-commerce websites for businesses across South Wales and the rest of the UK from £3,500. Our e-commerce builds include Stripe payment integration, product management, inventory tracking, and a full admin dashboard. No WooCommerce, no Shopify monthly fees — just a fast, hand coded shop built to convert. We've built e-commerce sites for businesses in Newport, Cardiff, Swansea, Bridgend, and beyond.

How long does it take to build a website?

About a week for a standard hand-coded site once you've sent us your logo, text and photos. E-commerce builds with full product catalogues take a little longer. There are no video calls, no Gantt charts and no months of back-and-forth — you tell us about your business, pick a style, and we build it.

Do you only work in Newport, or across the UK?

We're based in Newport, South Wales but build sites for businesses anywhere in the UK. We have dedicated local pages for Newport, Cardiff, Swansea, Bridgend, Cwmbran, Caerphilly, Pontypridd, Merthyr Tydfil, Abergavenny and Bristol, and we work remotely with clients beyond those towns. Everything is handled by phone and email — no need to be local to get a proper banging website.
