“We’re really happy with the website and brand identity. It’s clear and straightforward, and it actually sounds like us. The design works for what we do. The team listened to us and built it the way we wanted it.”

Charlie N. Creative Director, BTRDGroup

“SWD got the job done well. They communicated clearly, and they understood what we needed from the site. They didn’t just build it to show our brand, they built it to actually be the brand. I’d absolutely recommend them.”

Sebastian H. Head of Sound, Mai Productions

“I had Swift Web Design not only move my site from Squarespace to WordPress, but they also gave me some very helpful tips on how I could improve it. It’s been so much better. Josh sorted it all out and he’s always there when I need something changed or want advice on how to do things. No messing around, just gets it done. Would definitely recommend him.”

Simon P. Owner, Gold Program

“We brought Simply Read Ltd to life from the ground up. Swift Web Design created our logo, website, colour scheme, and picked the fonts. Everything feels cohesive and professional. They understood what we were trying to do as a new business and delivered exactly that.”

Most small-business websites start from £400. The final price depends on how many pages you need and any extras like booking systems or e-commerce. You always get a written quote before any work starts, and because we’re not VAT registered, that quote is the final figure.

Most projects go live within 1 to 8 weeks, depending on size and how quickly we get your content and feedback. Your proposal includes a realistic timeline, and we keep you updated as the build moves along.

Yes, completely. Once the project is paid in full and the site is live, the site and all its content are yours. You get full access to everything and you’re free to stay with us or move on. No lock-in.

For clients whose sites we build, we can take care of hosting and keep everything running as part of looking after the site. It’s not something we sell on its own. If you’d rather host it yourself, that’s fine too; the site is yours to put wherever you like.

No problem. You can request changes any time, either as a one-off or through a Plus monthly plan, which covers ongoing tweaks, maintenance and priority support.
