Websites worth
looking at.

Clark Digital Studio designs, builds, hosts and looks after websites for businesses across the UK. Hand-built, properly fast, and made to look like you meant it.

What we do

Everything a website needs, under one roof

Design, build, hosting and the looking-after afterwards. You deal with one person throughout — the same one who built it.

Website design & build

A site designed around your business rather than dropped into a template — your words, your work, your colours. Built by hand so it loads fast, reads well and holds its own next to firms ten times your size. Brochure sites, multi-page sites, or a single page for one service.

Rebuilds & redesigns

A site that's gone tired, slow or awkward to use. Keep what works, replace what doesn't, and hold onto your place in Google while doing it.

Online shops

Sell products or take deposits, with card payments, stock and postage handled properly rather than bolted on at the end.

Hosting & care

Hosting, backups, security updates and any changes you want made. One monthly amount, no contract, no tie-in.

Getting found

Titles, descriptions, headings and a Google Business Profile set up properly — the groundwork that decides whether you appear at all.

Words & layout

Most sites don't need more pages, they need clearer ones. I'll rewrite and rearrange so a visitor knows what you do in five seconds.

Example work

How it works

A simple way to get started

No forms to fill in and no sales process. You see something real before you commit to anything.

  1. A proper look

    Tell me about your business, and your website address if you have one. I'll look at what's there and say honestly what I'd change — including if the answer is nothing.

  2. A free example

    I design and build a real working page for your business, not a mock-up. You open it on your own phone and decide whether you like it.

  3. A fixed price

    One number for the build, agreed before I start. Never an hourly rate that quietly grows while you wait.

  4. Built and looked after

    I build it, move it across carefully, and keep it running. Changes afterwards are part of the monthly amount.

Standards

What comes as standard, on every site

Not a list of extras with prices beside them. This is simply how the work is done.

  • Hand-built, not assembledNo page builders, no fifty plugins fighting each other.
  • Loads in under a secondSmall, clean pages. Speed is a design decision, not an add-on.
  • Works on every screenPhone, tablet, laptop, big monitor — laid out for each, not squashed into one.
  • Secure by defaultHTTPS from day one, backups running, updates kept on top of.
  • Readable by search enginesProper titles, descriptions and headings, written for people first.
  • Accessible to everyoneReal contrast, keyboard navigation, text that scales when someone needs it bigger.
  • Your email keeps workingMoving a site should never cost you an enquiry. Checked before anything switches over.
  • You own itThe files are yours. If you ever want to take it elsewhere, I hand them over.

Questions

The ones I get asked

What does a website cost?

One fixed price for the build, plus a small monthly amount for hosting and changes. I'll give you both numbers once I've seen what you actually need — a five-page site for a trade and an online shop are different jobs, and quoting before looking is how people end up with a surprise. The example is free either way.

How long does it take?

Most small business sites are a couple of weeks from go-ahead to live. What usually holds things up isn't the building — it's waiting on photos and words, so I'll help with both.

Can I change things myself afterwards?

Tell me and I'll do it, usually the same day — that's what the monthly amount covers. If you'd rather edit prices and text yourself, say so early and I'll build it that way instead.

Will this affect my business email?

It shouldn't, and it's the part I'm most careful about. Your website and your email are separate settings on the same domain, and only the website ones change. I check yours first, preserve them, and confirm mail is still arriving before anything goes live.

What if the person who built my old site has vanished?

Very common, and usually solvable. What matters is who controls the domain, not who built the site. If the login has been lost there's a proper recovery process, and I'll walk you through it.

Do I need photographs?

Real photos of your own work beat stock photography every time, and phone photos are usually good enough — I'll tell you what to shoot. Where there aren't any, the design carries the page instead.
