Website design & development

A website shaped around the business.

I design and build clear, responsive websites for independent businesses and established teams. That can mean a focused static site, an editable CMS website or a larger content-led build.

When it is useful

Built for a real requirement

This service is for businesses that need a public website with a clear commercial purpose: explain the offer, build confidence and make it easy for the right customer to take the next step. That may be a focused static website for stable content, an editable Sanity CMS site for teams that need control, or a larger service- and content-led build with more pages and journeys.

Before design starts, the content structure and page plan are shaped around what customers need to understand. The interface is then designed bespoke to the business, with responsive front-end development, sensible accessibility, performance and technical SEO foundations built in rather than added as an afterthought.

Launch includes practical testing and handover. For sites built by CH Digital, hosting, maintenance, content changes and continued development can remain available afterwards, so the website can evolve as the business does.

For small business websites in Derby and further afield, the aim is simple: make the business easy to understand and the next step easy to take.
