Web design in Hull
We are not in Hull and we will not dress it up. Hull does things its own way, down to the cream phone boxes and a phone network that was never BT's, so we would rather be straight with you. We work by phone, WhatsApp and video, and we build your site first and send you the link. You only pay if it is better than what you have.
We write every site by hand. No page builder, no forty plugins, no theme somebody else in Hull is already using.
A website that does one job: get the phone to ring
No jargon. Here is what actually lands in your hands when you go ahead.
- Set up so Google can read it: titles, descriptions, schema, the lot
- Live on your own domain, with the email and DNS moved for you
- Your number, your WhatsApp and your quote form on every single screen
- Photos of your own work, sized properly so they do not crawl on mobile
- No page builder and no bought theme, so there is nothing in it to slow it down
- One clear price up front. Builds from £395, and shops or apps are quoted on the job
The Hull businesses we build for most
Hull's small business life runs along a few well known strips and around the docks. The Fruit Market and the Old Town by the water, the Avenues and Newland Avenue to the west, Hessle Road with its fishing history, and the industrial side feeding the port and the wind industry.
Independents in the Fruit Market and the Old Town
Humber Street has been a market since long before it was bars and boutiques, and now it is jewellers, fashion, prints and places to eat. Much of that trade depends on someone deciding to come down to the waterfront. A site that shows what is on, what is new and where you are gets you into that decision.
Engineering and supply firms around the port
The Siemens Gamesa blade factory at Alexandra Dock brought a new supply chain to Hull, and local engineering and service firms that once sold only to the port can now sell into offshore wind too. Those buyers check you out online before they send an enquiry. A clear site showing certifications, kit and past work is what gets you on the list.
Cafes, salons and shops on the Avenues and Newland Avenue
Princes Avenue and Newland Avenue have a long run of cafes, bars, salons and small shops, used by the students and families around them. People search those by street name. A site with your hours, prices and booking link is what turns that search into a visit.
More on this: websites for barbers and salons and websites for shops.
What you are actually up against in Hull
Hull is something of a closed market online, in a good way. It is at the end of the M62 and the Humber, so fewer firms from outside bother to compete for Hull searches, and the ones that rank are mostly local businesses plus the national directories. The catch is that a lot of those local sites were built years ago and have not been touched since.
That makes the bar lower than you would think. A site that loads quickly on a phone, names the parts of Hull you work in, and sits alongside a Google profile full of real photos will stand out. Hull people are loyal to a business once they find one. The job is making sure they find you.

Professor Personal Training, York
A neon-on-charcoal build for a PT whose line is 'train with a method, not a guess'. Programme breakdowns, a know-your-numbers flow and a WhatsApp-first enquiry route, built for in-person York clients and online coaching anywhere.
Personal training, a service that sells on trust and results rather than price.
York is 34 miles from Hull in a straight line.
Live on their own domain at professorpt.com. We built it first and they paid after.
There are more like it. Our work page has every live site we have built and where each one is. Anything we built on spec is on there too, labelled as a concept, so you can tell which is which.

Web Design in Hull: three questions we get asked
Do you use templates or a page builder?
No. Every page is written by hand for your business, which is a large part of why it loads quickly on a phone. There is no bought theme underneath it and no builder subscription to keep paying.
What does a website actually cost in Hull?
Ours start at £395 for a one to four page site, £650 for a bigger business site and £1,200 for a premium build. A shop or a web app is quoted on the job because no two are the same. That is the whole list, and it is on the pricing page rather than behind a form.
Does it matter that Hull runs on KCOM rather than the usual providers?
Not for your website. Hull's own network means your phone line and broadband come from a different company to most of the country, but a website lives on a server elsewhere and works exactly the same for your customers. The only thing we check is that your email and domain are set up properly, because that is where people in Hull sometimes find old settings from a previous provider.
