A city climbing, in every sense.

From Steep Hill’s independents to the engineering firms that once powered the world, Lincoln rewards businesses that take themselves seriously.

Lincoln layers its economies like its geography: the cathedral quarter and Steep Hill independents trading on one of England’s finest settings, a university that has transformed the city’s age and energy, and an engineering heritage (turbines, engines, agricultural machinery) that still employs thousands across the city’s industrial estates.

Visitors plan online, students live online, and engineering buyers procure online. Whichever Lincoln you trade in, your website is doing first-contact work every day, and doing it badly if it hasn’t been touched in years.

So we build for it: bespoke WordPress design around your brand, quick on a phone, and structured so people searching in Lincoln, North Hykeham and Washingborough actually find you. To push beyond the foundations, our SEO service runs month to month, and care plans or website management take the upkeep off your desk entirely.

The Lincoln search picture

Uphill and downhill are different markets. The Bailgate visitor economy, the student city around the university and the suburbs from North Hykeham to Washingborough each search differently. One site has to be structured to serve them all.

Visitors decide before they climb the hill. Cathedral-quarter trade is chosen on phones, in advance. Speed, photography and instant booking routes matter more than any amount of passing footfall.

County demand funnels into the city. Half of Lincolnshire searches for Lincoln for anything a village can't supply. Firms visible for the city collect a county's worth of enquiries.

Judge us on our work.

Five of our builds, and the job each one was hired to do. Rejuvenair is the one to read first here: a visitor-facing business taken seriously from first search to booking.

“Nothing has been too much trouble and the support and knowledge is second to none.”

Tom Green, Greenline Accountants

Every business in our portfolio is still a client. That is the argument for spending properly once, with people who will still be here in three years.

Six promises, in writing.

Six commitments in the contract. A city built on engineering appreciates a specification that gets honoured.

WordPress only

Twelve years of one platform, on purpose.

Fixed price

What we quote is what you pay.

No tie-in

Month to month, with 30 days' notice.

You own it all

Your site, code, content and hosting.

Never outsourced

The people you meet do the work.

We stick around

Launch is the start of the job, not the end.

What a website costs.

No packages. A Bailgate independent and a Teal Park engineering firm don't need the same website, so the range below is priced per job.

£2,500 A focused site doing one job well
£15,000 A multi-system build with custom development

How many jobs the site has to do.

Whether you're selling online.

What it has to talk to: CRM, ERP, bookings.

How much of it there is.

Whether the content already exists.

Paying for the build

One fixed figure, invoiced in stages, with 30 days of support included.

If cash flow is the constraint, the same build spreads over 12, 24 or 36 months.

From first conversation to launch.

Four stages from first conversation to launch, with visible progress and an honest timeline up front.

Discovery

Your business, your customers, a clear spec and an honest timeline.

Design & build

Designed and built from scratch, with feedback at every stage.

Test & train

Tested on real devices, then your team trained to run it.

Launch & beyond

Live, watched closely, with 30 days of support included.

Most projects take 4 to 10 weeks depending on scope.

The right fit

We're picky, on purpose.

We take on a small number of projects and do them properly. Honesty about fit runs both ways.

You're in the right place if

  • An established business, outgrown DIY
  • You see the site as a tool for work
  • You want a partner after launch
  • You'll share how the business ticks

We're probably not your people if

  • A £500 quick fix or a site by Friday
  • Set on Wix, Shopify or Squarespace
  • Chasing the cheapest of five quotes
  • You'd rather not talk about the business

On the fence? Ask. We'll tell you honestly if we're not the right fit.

Questions people actually ask.

The questions Lincoln businesses ask us most, answered plainly.

Nearly every project lands between £2,500 and £15,000. A Bailgate independent wanting a beautiful, fast shopfront site sits differently in that range from an engineering firm needing capability pages and integrations, which is exactly why we price the job, not a package. Fixed figure after one conversation; pay monthly website design if spreading it helps.

Yes, Lincolnshire is part of the regular patch and Lincoln is under an hour from the studio. In-person meetings are easy to arrange; the rest runs on calls and email like every build in the portfolio.

Footfall follows the website more than it used to. Visitors and students pick where to go before they set out, and the county searches Lincoln from home. The businesses that show up well are the ones the footfall was already booked with.

Yes, and in Lincoln that means being structured for three audiences at once: visitors planning uphill, the student city, and the county searching in for what villages can't supply. The build carries those foundations; our SEO service pushes them month to month.

Yes, Lincolnshire is part of our regular patch and Lincoln is under an hour from the studio. Meetings in person are easy to arrange, and everything else runs on calls and email like all our builds.

No. Everything is designed and built by our own team in Doncaster. The person you meet at the start is the person building your site.

Thirty days of support is included. After that most clients move onto a care plan, which runs month to month with 30 days' notice. There's no obligation, but almost everyone stays, which we think says more than we could.

Most projects take 4 to 10 weeks depending on scope. We'll give you an honest timeline before we start. If you need something live by Friday, we're genuinely not the right fit.

Web design in nearby areas.

One small team in Doncaster, building for businesses across Yorkshire and the East Midlands. If another town is closer to home, start there.

Gainsborough. Marshall’s Yard showed what the town looks like when someone invests properly, and commuter growth along the Trent keeps adding families who choose trades and services entirely by search. The online field there is quiet, so a well-built site stands out quickly.

Retford. The fast train filled a handsome Georgian market town with commuters who bring London expectations to local suppliers. Websites that meet that standard quietly take the best work in Bassetlaw.

Newark-on-Trent. The A1, the East Coast Main Line and the showground fairs bring the whole country through town, and passing trade searches cold. Reputation wins the locals; visibility wins everyone else.

We also cover web design in Scunthorpe, Grimsby, Nottingham and Mansfield.
