Services
Website Redesign Our website redesign service is centred on creating a faster, clearer and more effective online presence. We examine your existing website to identify issues with design, speed, SEO and user experience. A new structure is planned before the key pages are redesigned and developed. We also handle content migration, redirects and final refinements before launch.
Brochure Website Design A brochure website offers a practical way to establish your business online while keeping the focus firmly on your services and customer enquiries. We design each site around your business goals, usually incorporating five to ten pages and clear navigation. Mobile responsiveness, fast loading performance and SEO-friendly structure are included to ensure the website provides a professional experience across devices.
ECommerce Web Design We create professional eCommerce websites designed to turn visitors into paying customers. Each online store is tailored around your products, customers and business objectives. From product pages through to checkout, we consider every stage of the shopping journey. Our solutions are built to provide a secure, responsive and effective experience that supports business growth.
Website Maintenance Our maintenance plans are designed to provide continued care for websites across WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, Wix, Squarespace, and custom-built platforms. We manage updates, security checks, monitoring, backups, content amendments, performance improvements, and technical support. For online stores, we also support payment gateways and apply data protection measures designed to reduce the risk of data loss.
Website Hosting We handle the hosting needs of your website from infrastructure and security through to backups and monitoring. Our service is suitable for WordPress, WooCommerce, eCommerce platforms, custom websites and web applications, with UK-based hosting supporting responsive performance. SSL certificates are included, while daily backups and recovery measures help protect your website against unexpected problems.
Landing Page Design We design landing pages that give visitors a direct and uncomplicated route towards enquiring, signing up or buying. By concentrating each page on one purpose, we remove competing navigation and unnecessary distractions. The service includes conversion-focused design, persuasive copy and layouts, mobile optimisation and fast loading, with pages also prepared for paid campaigns and A/B testing.

From the start, Ben took the time to understand my business, the type of work I do and how I wanted the company to come across. He listened to my ideas, offered good advice of his own and was always happy to make changes as we went along.

Communication has been excellent throughout, and nothing has felt like too much trouble. The finished website looks professional, represents the business properly and is a huge improvement on what I had before.

After having some awful experiences with other companies in the past, I was a bit wary about going through the process again, but Ben has absolutely smashed it for me this time. I couldnt be happier with the result.

If youre looking for someone reliable, knowledgeable and easy to work with to build or improve your website, Id definitely recommend Web Design Essex.

Thanks again, Ben really pleased with it.

When we was searching for a web designer the range was vast and came across Web Design Essex, Ben was very professional in his approach , there was no pushy sales pitch just a candid conversation to discuss what we was hoping to build as a web site,

Ben listened to our brief and was engaged with how we could present ourselves , In very little time a proposal was submitted and was even greater than our initial vision, the follow on meetings were seamless and again producing a web site that was impressive also faultless.

In our opinion Web Design Essex is the one stop shop to build a Web Site that ticks more than just the boxes, a personal approach to ensure every detail is layed out and to firmly place you at a level that will reach out to your audience.

From the team at Claremont Build & Co, Web Design Essex fulfilled our requirements from Inception through to completion and grateful to Ben and his team for producing our web site to a very high standard.

Web Design Essex are a blue print for how web design companies should be.

I could just tell within our first conversation that I was in good hands and Ben and his team took the time to understand my business and go through things carefully to establish my needs, friendly and professional.

The project was to build a new website to replace my old website, that was looking tired!
The result was a very professional and well functioning website, most importantly, Ben informed me that its not only the aesthetics of a site and how good it looks but how it functions for the user and how it can work well for conversions and SEO by being built a particular way. These are things all previous web designers did not take into consideration and now my site works extremely well, drawing more customers due to the above.

Thank you Ben and the team at web design Essex, you have been easy to talk to, very committed to making things work for us and I really appreciate all you have done for my company, so happy with my website, I am the envy of my competitors!

Web Design Essex has helped develop multiple websites over the years. Ben's approach is efficient and straight to the point, and he and his team always go the extra mile. After working with five different agencies before finding Ben, I can honestly say, do not waste any of your time; get in touch with Ben. You will not be disappointed. I'll continue to use Web Design Essex for any web development, SEO, and Google Ads going forward. Highly recommended

Outstanding service from start to finish.

Ben's advice and execution were spot on, and his assistance with our marketing campaigns was invaluable.

Not only did he help convey our brand effectively and establish us as an authority in our field, but we also managed to sign up several new clients within days of working together!

Highly recommended for anyone needing top notch web design and marketing support.
