Web design for marketing and PR agencies, from £395
A business choosing an agency judges your taste before it reads a word, and your own website is usually the first piece of your work it sees.
We build agency sites that put the work first and make the people behind it clear, like the one we built for We Big Ideas, a PR and social media agency in Falkirk.
Your site is the first sample of your work
A business looking for PR, marketing or social media help judges you on taste before it reads a word. If the agency site is a tired template with stock photos, the prospect quietly assumes that is what their own campaign would look like. For most trades a website just has to be clear. For an agency it also has to be good, because it is the portfolio.
The common pattern is the opposite. The agency's best work is scattered across client accounts and its own social feeds, and the website is the one project that never gets a brief, because there is always a paying job ahead of it. So the place a serious prospect goes to check you out is the weakest thing you have made.
The fix is not complicated. Put the strongest work on the first screen, give each campaign a short page of its own, say plainly who runs the agency and what they have done, and make it easy to start a conversation.
What goes on an agency's website
Work first, people second, a clear way in third. Everything else is optional.
The work, moving, on the first screen
Reels and campaign clips on the home page, muted, with poster frames and lazy loading so a phone on 4G still gets a fast first screen.
A page per campaign
Who it was for, the problem, what you made and what changed. Short, specific and only with the client's agreement. Each one is also a page Google can find.
Clients' own words
Testimonials quoted word for word with a name and business where the client agrees. Never an invented score or a vague five-star badge.
The founder, stated plainly
Background and experience written as facts. For a small agency the person who answers the phone is a large part of what is being bought.
Found for the local search
Agencies are still hired locally more than they admit. A clear town, a Google Business Profile that matches the site, and service pages a local owner would search for.
An enquiry that is easy to start
A short form that confirms it has sent, a direct email and your social links. No ten-field brief before anyone has spoken.
We Big Ideas
A PR, marketing and social media agency in Falkirk, live on its own domain since October 2026.
We Big Ideas
Live at webigideas.co.uk. The agency was founded by a former Sky News and Scottish Sun journalist, so the site leads with that newsroom background and with the work itself: a moving hero, a wall of the reels the agency films for local businesses, a short page for each campaign, named testimonials from clients, and a contact form that tells you it has sent.
It was a £395 Starter build and it sits on our £45 Looked After care plan. See the We Big Ideas case study, or every client we have live.
Referrals bring the call. The site closes it.
Most agency work arrives by word of mouth: a past client mentions you, or someone sees a post you made for a business they know. What happens next is predictable. The person searches your name, lands on your site, and decides in a minute or two whether to get in touch. A referral can be lost on that page without you ever knowing it existed.
Search still matters on top of that. A business owner looking for social media help or PR in their town types exactly that, and a page that names the town and the service plainly has a fair chance of showing up. Campaign pages help here too, because each one is a real page about a real local business, which is the kind of content search engines and AI assistants are happy to point people at.
Built first, decided afterwards
Send us your best reels and a few lines about the agency. Within 48 hours you get a link to a real working site built around your own work, not a template. If it is not right, say so and you owe nothing. No card and no sales call.
A focused agency site is £395, which is what We Big Ideas chose. £650 adds more pages, with room for a proper page per service and a growing set of campaign pages. £1,200 is for something larger. Any build can be split into three payments at the same price, and you own the site either way.
Care plans start at £45 a month with no minimum term. Each month you get a short update by WhatsApp or email on what we changed.
What agencies ask us
We make content for a living. Why not build the site ourselves?
You can, and plenty of agencies do. The trouble is that the site is always the job that loses to a paying client, so it sits half finished on a template for years while the work you are proudest of lives on Instagram. We build it while you keep billing. You send the reels, the campaign stories and the words you already use, and you get a working site back to judge, not a proposal.
Our best work is video. Will that slow the site down?
Only if it is done carelessly. Each clip gets a still poster frame, plays muted, and only starts loading when it is about to come into view, so the first screen is not waiting on a dozen videos. The long versions stay on the platforms that are built to stream them, and the site links out. On the We Big Ideas build, the reels on the home page play muted and none of them starts downloading when the page first opens.
How should we show client work without breaking confidences?
Ask each client first, and show only what they agree to. A short page per campaign works best: who it was for, what the problem was, what you made, and what changed, in plain words and with real numbers only where the client is happy to share them. If a client would rather stay unnamed, describe the type of business and keep the work. A thin case study with permission beats a full one without it.
Should the founder be front and centre, or the agency brand?
For a small agency, mostly the founder. People hire a PR or marketing agency of a few people because of who will actually pick up the phone, and a newsroom or industry background is the strongest thing on the page if you have one. The brand still leads the design. The about section is where the person comes through, plainly and with the experience stated rather than hinted at.
Do we need a blog?
Only if someone will write for it. An abandoned news page with its last post two years ago tells a prospect you have gone quiet, which is the worst message an agency can send. Campaign pages that you add as work finishes do the same job better, because they prove you are busy and they show the work itself rather than talking about it.
Towns with a page of their own
We are a Southampton studio and we work wherever the job is. These towns have a page of their own on what the local market looks like and who you are up against.
Other trades, and four plain guides
Each trade has a page of its own. The guides cover what a site costs, how a directory listing compares, your Google listing, and paying in parts.
