Bespoke WordPress websites for Lincoln businesses, from Steep Hill independents to the industrial estates. Fifty minutes from our Doncaster studio.
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.
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.
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.”

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.
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.
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.
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.
Your business, your customers, a clear spec and an honest timeline.
Designed and built from scratch, with feedback at every stage.
Tested on real devices, then your team trained to run it.
Live, watched closely, with 30 days of support included.
Most projects take 4 to 10 weeks depending on scope.
On the fence? Ask. We'll tell you honestly if we're not the right fit.
"Outstanding service. Met with James to discuss the different options for a new website, I knew what I wanted the website to do but James offered alternative solutions and explained why it would work, which made complete sense. He understood that because I was applying for a grant to help fund the website that it wouldnt happen straight away but he was still happy to come and discuss the options with me. For someone that wears every hat in a business it was nice to be able to speak to James and be able to pass some of the stress of this over. Thank you so much for your help and whichever way the grant goes I will be discussing this further with you and would recommend you to all."
"Unbelievable service and guidance I fully recommend James and his team"
"When I was looking to update my company website (www.warhurstassociates.co.uk), I met James at a networking event and he made the process around what needed to happen to appear higher up in Google easy to understand and offered to develop and manage the website for a reasonable price for a sole trader. Through the process, he provided clear and informative advice of what I needed to do to provide him with the appropriate information and using my existing website, managed to come up with a style which suited by business. Any changes I wanted were completed the same or next day and nothing was too much trouble. I would have no hesitation in recommending James and Pixelish if you are looking for a website or looking to have yours managed / redesigned. Thank you, James for all your support."
"We’re already seeing traffic from the SEO work James has done and we’re regularly receiving genuine enquiries through the website form he added. He takes away so much of the pressure and time involved in trying to manage it all yourself."
"Highly recommended. Been with Pixelish for a number of years now, service and product is top draw :)"
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.
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.
More from Pixelish: SEO, website maintenance, website management and pay monthly website design.
