Website design and development
WordPress website design and development that brings in enquiries
We design and build fast, mobile-first WordPress websites with Claude. Every page is written to be found on Google and to turn visitors into calls and enquiries.
What it is
A website built to be found and to convert
A good website does two jobs. It helps the right people find you, and it makes it easy for them to contact you. Many sites do neither well. They look fine on a desktop, load slowly on a phone, and say very little about what the business does or who it helps.
We design and build WordPress websites for portfolios and businesses. We use Claude to speed up the build, then check every page by hand for layout, speed, accessibility and clarity. That means you get a professional site faster, and the saving is reflected in the price.
WordPress is the most widely used website platform in the world. You own the site, you can edit it yourself, and there is a huge range of tools around it. We keep the setup light, with only the plugins your site truly needs, so it stays fast and safe.
SEO is planned from the start, not added at the end. We decide the pages, the keywords and the structure before we design anything, so your site is ready to rank on launch day.
Who it is for
Businesses and professionals who need a clear online presence
Our website service is a good fit if you recognise one of these situations.
Service businesses
Consultants, clinics, agencies, trades and professional firms that win clients through enquiries and want a site that explains the service and makes contact easy.
Freelancers and creatives
Designers, writers, developers and photographers who need a portfolio that shows real work and builds trust fast.
Businesses with an old site
If your site is slow, hard to use on a phone, or does not appear on Google, a rebuild often pays for itself in new enquiries.
What you get
Everything included in your website
Each package is quoted in writing, and these are the parts you can expect.
Strategy and page plan
A clear sitemap, one page for each main service, and a plan for the words on each page before design begins.
Custom design
A modern, branded design that matches your colours and logo, with room to grow as your business grows.
Mobile-first build
Every page is built for phones first, then scaled up. Most visitors arrive on a mobile, so this comes first.
Speed tuning
Lightweight theme, optimised images, self-hosted fonts and caching, so pages load quickly.
SEO foundation
Page titles, descriptions, headings, schema markup, sitemap and clean URLs set up before launch.
Enquiry form and tracking
A spam-protected form that emails you, plus analytics and Search Console set up so you can measure results.
Easy editing
A simple setup so you can change text and images yourself, with a short training video.
Handover and support
All logins, a handover guide and 30 days of support after launch.
How it works
Our process, step by step
1
Discovery call
We learn about your business, customers, competitors and goals.
2
Plan and quote
You receive the sitemap, page list, timeline and a fixed price.
3
Design and content
We write and design the key pages and share a preview for your feedback.
4
Build and test
We build the site, then test speed, mobile layout, forms and tracking.
5
Portfolio website
We connect your domain, check everything live and submit your sitemap to Google.
Timeline
How long a website takes
A portfolio website usually takes about two weeks. A business website takes three to four weeks. An online store or custom site takes four to six weeks.
The biggest factor is how quickly we receive your feedback and any content you want to supply. If you send feedback within two working days, we can keep to the schedule. We agree dates at the start and tell you early if anything changes.
Why ScaleoMedia
What makes our approach different
Built with Claude
Claude helps us write, structure and code faster. A person checks every page, so you get speed without careless mistakes.
SEO from day one
Most agencies build first and optimise later. We plan keywords and structure first, so the site can rank sooner.
Fixed price in writing
You know the scope and the cost before we start, and we do not charge for extras you did not ask for.
FAQ
Website design questions
How much does a website cost?
Portfolio websites start from $300, business websites from $700 and online stores and custom sites from $1,400, with the first year of hosting included. You can see what each includes on our pricing page, and we give a fixed quote after a call.
Will I be able to edit the website myself?
Yes. We build on WordPress with simple blocks, and we give you a short training video. You can also ask us to make changes for you.
Do you write the content?
Yes, if you want. We can write the text for your pages from our discovery call, or work from content you already have.
Will my site rank on Google?
We build every site with SEO in place, which gives it a strong start. Rankings depend on competition and time, so nobody can promise a position. We can add a monthly SEO plan to keep growing.
What happens after launch?
You get 30 days of free support. After that, you can look after the site yourself or choose a monthly care and SEO plan.
Do I own the website?
Yes. The site sits in your hosting account and you receive every login at handover.
