Website Development Built to work, not just to look good.

Custom builds, integrations with the tools you already use, speed and accessibility fixes, and takeovers of sites another developer left behind.

What do you need built?

Tell us the job. We’ll tell you how.

Most development projects start with one of these.

Designed for your business and built on a fast, secure setup your team can update.

How we build

Taxman website example: a custom layout for tax and accounting services.

Integrations

Your site, connected. No double entry.

We connect your website to the tools your business already runs on.

Custom API integrations, webhooks, CRMs, booking systems, ecommerce platforms and secure data exchange, built so your team stops copying information from one system to another.

CRMs and formsHubSpot, Salesforce, Leadfeeder and Zapier
Booking and paymentsFor example, SKED patient booking for Strive Chiropractic
Custom APIs and webhooksFor example, Thunder Seed products pulled in from SeedWare
Job boards and directoriesProvider directories, event booking and job listings

Thunder Seed Dak-Sota soybean products, filtered by maturity and trait and pulled in from SeedWare through an API connection.

Speed, access, search

Fast, findable and usable by everyone.

We test and fix the things Google and your visitors notice first.

We check how fast your pages load, whether everyone can use them (including people using screen readers and keyboards) and whether search engines can read them, then fix what’s holding the site back.

Accessibility (WCAG 2.2 AA)

3Quality testingDevices, browsers, speed, security and accessibility.
4LaunchWe launch, redirect old URLs and submit the site to Google.
5SupportUpdates, fixes and improvements through hosting and support plans.

See all our website work

Can you work on a website someone else built?

Yes. We review the code and hosting, make sure you have every login and file, then fix, update or rebuild what needs it.

Do you build custom features or just install themes?

Both. We use proven tools where they fit and write custom code for integrations, directories, booking, product data and anything off the shelf can’t do.

What does website development cost?

It depends on what the site has to do. We give you a fixed quote once we understand the features and integrations you need.

Do you offer support after launch?

Yes. Our cloud hosting plans include updates and backups, and support hours cover ongoing changes.
