Website design and development

Websites that turn visitors into inquiries

We design and build websites, online stores and web apps on WordPress, Shopify, Webflow and custom code, with SEO planned in from the first wireframe. Every site is judged by the inquiries it brings in, not by how it looks in a mockup.

What it is, why it matters

Your website is your best salesperson, or your worst

A website has one job: turn the attention you’ve earned, from search, ads, referrals and word of mouth, into a conversation. Design decides whether people trust you in the first few seconds. Structure decides whether they find what they came for. Speed and clean code decide whether search engines send anyone at all.

So we don’t start with colors. We start with how your customers decide, what they search for, and which pages should win those searches. The keyword plan and the sitemap come before the first wireframe, and the redirects from your old site are mapped before launch, so a new site doesn’t cost you the rankings the old one earned.

We build and manage websites on every major platform: WordPress, WooCommerce, Shopify, BigCommerce, Squarespace and Webflow, plus custom builds in React, Next.js and Node.js when an off-the-shelf platform isn’t enough. After launch, the same team keeps the site updated, secure and backed up, and runs the SEO and ads, so it keeps improving instead of slowly going stale.

You need this if
  • The site looks dated next to your competitors, and you know it
  • It loads slowly on a phone, which is where most visitors find you
  • You can’t change a page without calling someone
  • Traffic arrives, but the contact form stays empty
  • Nobody on your team has time to keep the site updated, secure and backed up

How we work

Five steps, in this order, every time

  1. 01

    Audit

    We review the current site, your analytics, your competitors and what customers need to find. Nothing is designed yet.

  2. 02

    Strategy

    Sitemap, page plans, keyword targets and a written scope with a timeline. You approve it before design starts.

  3. 03

    Execution

    Design in stages you sign off on, then development on a staging site while your live site stays up.

  4. 04

    Reporting

    A staging link you can click through at every stage, and a launch checklist that includes every redirect.

  5. 05

    Optimization

    After launch we watch speed, rankings and conversions, and tune whatever the data points to.

Why Griffon

Four promises on every build

01

A named strategist

One person owns your project from kickoff. They run the plan, the sign-offs and the launch, and they pick up the phone.

02

SEO from the first wireframe

Keyword plan, structure, schema and redirects are part of the build, so launch day doesn’t reset your rankings.

03

One team after launch

The people who built the site run the search and ads that bring traffic to it, so a fix doesn’t wait on another vendor.

04

The same five steps, every time

Audit, strategy, execution, reporting and optimization. You always know which stage you’re in and what comes next.

Industries we serve

FAQ

Questions about website development, answered

How long does it take to build a website?

A focused business site usually takes four to six weeks. Larger custom builds and online stores take ten to sixteen weeks. We agree the timeline in writing before work starts.

Do you use templates?

We don’t start from a template. Every design is built around your brand, your content and how your customers decide, then developed on the platform that fits.

Can you redesign our site without starting over?

Yes. We can rework the structure, design and speed of an existing site while keeping the parts that work, and we protect your search rankings through the change.

Which platforms do you build on?

WordPress, Shopify, WooCommerce, Webflow and custom builds, chosen for what your business needs and how it will grow. We recommend; you decide.

Will the new site perform in search?

Yes. SEO is part of the build: a keyword plan, clean architecture, schema and fast loading. Redirects from the old site are mapped before launch, so you don’t lose what it earned.

Will we own the website?

Yes. The design, code, content and accounts are yours.

What support do you offer after launch?

Maintenance plans with updates, backups, security monitoring and content changes, sized to how often the site changes. The same team can run your SEO and ads.
