Choosing

Should you choose WordPress or a custom website?

WordPress suits a team that publishes often and wants to edit most of the site itself. Its choice of plugins offers flexibility as your content grows, although someone needs to keep the software updated for security. Think about who will take responsibility for those updates before choosing it.

A custom site built in Next.js suits you if fast pages, security and a design without template limits are priorities. It gives you more freedom over the design, with a developer handling structural changes. Consider how often you expect the structure of your site to change, as well as who will make those changes.

A hosted builder such as Wix, Squarespace or Webflow suits a small site you want to run alone. The trade-off is less control over code and speed; moving away later can mean rebuilding. Tell us how your team works and what you expect to change, and we will recommend WordPress or a custom build for your project.

Local

What Portsmouth businesses need from their websites

Portsmouth International Port serves commercial cruise ships and ferries. An engineering or construction firm working with port customers needs a project portfolio with photographs and clear project details, so prospective clients can assess its previous work before making an enquiry.

Gunwharf Quays is a retail outlet destination. For a retailer, the enquiry route needs attention: decide which inbox receives messages, who handles them and what the confirmation says. We can also put click-to-call and WhatsApp where customers can use them on a phone.

The University of Portsmouth is another local organisation. A startup launching a product needs a plain explanation of what it does and a clear way for visitors to join a waitlist or book a demonstration.

Rules

What a UK website needs to handle

If you run a UK limited company, your website must show its registered number, registered office address, place of registration and limited company status. We set up space for those details on the site; you supply and check the information before launch.

Organisations providing services through a website must make reasonable adjustments for disabled people. We agree an accessibility target in the brief and use it to guide the page designs and build. WCAG offers levels A, AA and AAA, and the W3C encourages use of its latest version.

How it runs

How your website project runs with us

We work remotely from India over video calls, WhatsApp and shared project boards. IST is 5h30m ahead of UK time, or 4h30m ahead during British Summer Time, so the shared board keeps decisions and feedback visible between conversations.

  1. 01

    Discover

    Tell us about your business, audience and goals. We agree the scope with you before design starts.

  2. 02

    Plan

    Explain who buys from you, why they choose you and what visitors should do on the site. We use those answers to shape the sitemap.

  3. 03

    Design

    We create wireframes and page designs for desktop and mobile. Review the page content and its order in the wireframes; colours come later.

  4. 04

    Build

    We develop the agreed site or editable CMS and test it on real devices and browsers. You can review the working pages.

  5. 05

    Launch and care

    Proofread each page, submit each form and confirm who receives its messages. We handle domain, email, analytics and search setup, followed by ongoing support.

Checklist

What to have ready before we talk

Start with a goal for the site and decide who will handle each kind of enquiry.

  • Rank the services or products you want visitors to see first.
  • Gather vector logo files, colours and fonts, or note what still needs creating.
  • Collect case studies, permitted client logos, testimonials and relevant credentials in a folder.
  • Find the domain, hosting, email, analytics and Search Console logins, or identify who holds them.
  • Choose sites you like and dislike, with a short reason for each choice.

Cost & time

What affects the cost and time involved

The work needed depends on what is ready and how the site is put together.

  • Brand

    An existing logo and style guide reduce design decisions compared with a brand still being developed.

  • Content gathering

    Service descriptions, team bios, case studies and photos need owners; collecting them can take longer than approving the design.

  • Site architecture

    A separate content editor and custom front end add hosting and maintenance work, even when that combination suits your editing needs.

  • Late content

    Real headings and paragraphs can change a layout designed around placeholder text, adding design revisions.

Questions

Asked by businesses in Portsmouth

Page updated 5 November 2026

How much does it cost to have a website built?

There is no fixed price. The main drivers include the number of distinct page templates, features such as booking or a CRM connection, and whether copy and photos are ready to publish. Translation or content creation adds to the scope. We send a free quote once the scope is agreed.

Can a custom website still have an editor?

Yes. A custom Next.js site can include an editor, so choosing custom development does not mean every content change needs a developer. WordPress is suited to teams that edit a lot themselves. We recommend an approach after understanding how your team works.

What is included in the website build?

The build includes page design, development and a content editor your team can use for pages, news, projects and careers. We can work with your existing logo, colours and fonts and prepare brand assets for the web where needed. We use Next.js or WordPress according to your editing needs.

Will I own my website?

Yes. You own your domain, content and code, with no lock-in. Keep the domain and hosting accounts in your business’s name and grant access to the people working on the site. That way, you retain control of the accounts as well as the finished work.

What happens after the website launches?

We provide a handover walkthrough for your team and set up analytics and Search Console. After launch, decide who will update news, projects and job posts. You can use analytics to track form submissions, calls and WhatsApp clicks as conversions and check which pages visitors started from.
