Website Design and Development
Why does my business need a custom site?
Your website is often the first—and sometimes only—chance to make an impression. 75% of consumers judge a business’s credibility based on its website. A generic, outdated, or slow site can send the wrong message and cost you potential customers. We design custom websites that align with your brand, engage your audience, and drive real business results.
What's the difference between a custom site and a template site?
Templates offer a one-size-fits-all approach—but your business isn’t one-size-fits-all. A custom website is designed specifically for your goals, audience, and industry. It’s built for performance, UX, and scalability, without the bloated code and design constraints that come with templates. The result? A faster, more engaging site that works as hard as you do.
How long does it take to build a site?
It depends on the complexity of the project, but most websites take 6–10 weeks from strategy to launch. We don’t just build—we research, plan, and refine to ensure your website is strategically sound, beautifully designed, and built to perform.
How much does a website cost?
Pricing varies based on scope, features, and functionality. A well-built website is an investment, not an expense—and one that pays off. A 0.1-second improvement in site speed can boost conversions by 8%, and mobile-friendly sites generate 2x more sales. We’ll work with you to create a site that aligns with your budget while delivering serious business value.
Will my website be easy to update and manage?
Yes! We believe you should never feel locked out of your own website. We provide a streamlined content management experience, allowing you to update text, images, and content with ease—without relying on a developer for every small change.
A business strategy is your big-picture blueprint for success—it defines where you’re going and why. A marketing plan, on the other hand, is the playbook for getting there. It outlines the campaigns, channels, and tactics to connect with your audience. Both are essential, and at Greatwood, we ensure they’re perfectly in sync so your business runs like a well-oiled machine.
Will my website work on mobile devices?
Yes—because it has to. Over 60% of web traffic comes from mobile. Every site we build is fully responsive, meaning it adapts seamlessly to different screen sizes, ensuring a smooth experience on desktops, tablets, and phones.
What makes a great website?
A great website isn’t just about looking good—it’s about strategy, usability, and performance. The best websites: Load fast (because 53% of users leave if a site takes over 3 seconds to load). Are intuitive (users should never feel lost). Guide visitors toward action (whether that’s booking a call, making a purchase, or signing up). Are built for long-term growth (scalable, adaptable, and aligned with your evolving business needs).
Will my site be SEO-optimised?
Absolutely. 93% of online experiences start with a search engine—so we build SEO foundations into every site. From clean code and fast loading speeds to mobile optimisation and structured metadata, your site will be search-friendly from day one.
What happens after my website is live?
We don’t just launch and leave. A website is a living asset, and we equip you with the knowledge and tools to manage it effectively. Need ongoing updates or enhancements? We offer continued support to ensure your site remains secure, optimised, and ahead of the curve.
