Websites That Actually Work

I build websites that actually work for your business. No corporate jargon, just honest work and designs that get results.

Professional Web Design Services

Here's what you get when we work together

Quick Loading Sites

Nobody likes waiting for pages to load. I build sites that are fast and work perfectly whether you're on a phone, tablet, or computer.

Clean, Modern Look

I design sites that look good without being flashy. Something your customers will actually want to use, not just scroll past.

SEO-Optimized & Google-Friendly

I build sites the way Google likes them, so people can actually find you when they search for what you do. Clean structure, proper meta tags, and fast loading—built for ranking.

You Can Update It

I'll show you how to make changes yourself, or just drop me a message and I'll sort it out for you. No complicated systems.

Actually Talk to Me

You'll be talking directly to me, not a call centre. I answer my own emails and actually care about your project.

Fair Prices

I know what it's like running a small business. My prices are straightforward and won't break the bank.

Professional SEO Reporting

I track your rankings, search performance, and technical health using a bespoke tool I built. Monthly reports you can actually understand—no jargon. Whether you've got a site with me or you just want clearer visibility, I can help.

SEO That Actually Makes Sense

A bespoke tool created by Howarth Web Design—for web design clients and businesses wanting clearer visibility. Here's what I can track and report on.

Technical Audits

Site crawls, meta tags, headings, status codes, and issues. Spot what's broken before it hurts your rankings. Export to CSV when you need the data elsewhere.

Search Console Integration

Connect your Google Search Console. I sync and track clicks, impressions, and how your pages perform in search over time.

Keyword Tracking & Visibility

Target keywords tracked over time. See visibility in Top 3, Top 10, Top 20, and Top 100. Know where you stand and what's moving.

Monthly Reports

Client-ready monthly reports: campaign summary, organic traffic, conversions, keyword performance, and local SEO. Pick your date range, print or share. No fluff.

Local SEO

Google Business Profile metrics, citations, reviews, and Q&A. See how your local presence is performing.

On-Page & Backlinks

On-page analysis with target keyword relevance. Backlink tracking ready for when you want to see who's linking to you.

Website Design Process

Here's how we'll build your site together

01

We Chat

First, I'll ask you about your business, what you need, and what you're hoping to achieve. No fancy questionnaires, just a proper conversation.

02

I Design It

I'll put together some designs based on what you've told me. You'll see exactly what it'll look like before I start building anything.

03

I Build It

Once you're happy with the design, I'll build the actual site. Clean code, no shortcuts, and it'll actually work properly.

04

I Test Everything

I'll check it works on phones, tablets, different browsers - all that stuff. I'd rather find problems before you do.

05

We Go Live

When you're ready, I'll get it online. And I'll stick around afterwards to make sure everything's running as it should.

Common Questions

Stuff people usually ask me

How long will this take?

+

Usually around 2-4 weeks, but it depends on what you need. A simple site might be done quicker, something more complex might take a bit longer. I'll give you a realistic timeline when we chat.

What about hosting and domain names?

+

I can help you get sorted with hosting and a domain name, or if you've already got one, I'll work with what you have. Either way, I'll make sure you know what's going on.

Can I change things myself later?

+

Yeah, definitely. I can set it up so you can update things yourself - it's not complicated. Or if you'd rather, just send me a message and I'll do it for you.

What happens if I need changes after it's live?

+

No problem. Small updates are usually quick to sort out. If you need ongoing help, we can sort something out. I'm not going to disappear once the site's live.

Do you work with small businesses?

+

That's mainly who I work with. I get that budgets can be tight, so I keep things straightforward and make sure you're getting good value for your money.
