How It Works

From First Call to Launch Day

Our proven design process keeps you in control at every stage. No surprises, no guesswork. Just clear communication and expert execution.

Team collaborating on a website design review
01

Discovery & Brief

We learn everything about your business, audience, competitors, and goals. You'll complete a design brief and we'll have a video call to discuss your vision in detail.

02

Wireframes & Layout

We create wireframes showing the structure and content hierarchy of every page. You'll see exactly where headlines, images, CTAs, and content blocks will sit before any visual design begins.

03

Visual Design

Your brand comes to life. We design high-fidelity mockups with your colours, typography, imagery, and content. You get two rounds of revisions to refine until it's exactly right.

04

Build & Develop

Our developers hand-code your approved designs into a lightning-fast WordPress site. No page builders, no bloat. Just clean, efficient code that's built to perform.

05

Test & Launch

We rigorously test across every device and browser, optimise for speed and SEO, then launch. You'll get full training so you can manage your content with confidence.

Designed to Rank on Google and to Be Read by AI

Two things most web designers never mention, and both decide whether your site gets found: the structured data search engines read, and the discovery files AI assistants read. Every site we design ships both.

Structured Data

Full, Detailed Schema on Every Page

Search engines don't read your pages the way you do. They read schema: a structured map of who you are, what you offer, and how your pages connect. We hand-build a complete schema graph on every single page (your business, each service, breadcrumbs, FAQs, articles, and the people behind them), not the thin single tag most sites ship. That is what earns rich results, star ratings, and "Jump to" links in the listing.

  • A complete @graph on every page, never one stray tag
  • Organisation, service, FAQ, breadcrumb and author entities linked together
  • One data layer drives the page and the schema, so they can never disagree

On Lockerfella, a locksmith site we built, this exact approach helped it rank #1 with zero backlinks.

AI Discovery

A Complete Suite of AI Discovery Files

People don't only search on Google now. They ask ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity. Those assistants look for AI Discovery Files: a small set of machine-readable files that tell them what your business is, what it offers, and how to describe it accurately. We ship the full nine-file suite on every build, and the standard itself was written by our founder.

  • Nine machine-readable files, generated from your real business data
  • Read by ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google's AI crawlers
  • Built to the AI Visibility standard our founder created

Lockerfella hit #1 in ChatGPT and Gemini, not just Google. Server logs show the AI crawlers reading these files for real.

E-E-A-T and Non-Commodity Content, in Plain English

Google's quality system rewards sites that prove real experience and real expertise. Since the May 2026 core update, it rewards them harder than ever.

  • Experience

    Have you actually done the thing? Real jobs, real photos, real dates. Not theory.

  • Expertise

    Do you know your field? Specifics, correct terms, and detail a copywriter could not fake.

  • Authoritativeness

    Do others treat you as a source? Named clients, reviews, and citations that check out.

  • Trustworthiness

    Can a visitor believe you? Visible authorship, honest pricing, and claims you can verify.

Commodity content

Generic advice scraped from the top ten results. The same tips every other site already published. Nothing only you could have written, so nothing for Google or an AI engine to prefer.

Non-commodity content

Real client names, real dated jobs, real prices, real outcomes. Content tied to work you have actually done, that no competitor can copy. This is what ranks and what AI engines quote.

The May 2026 Google core update widened the gap. Pages with genuine experience and specific first-hand detail climbed; thin, templated, look-alike pages slid. We wrote up exactly what we saw across the search results.

Read our May 2026 core update analysis

This is not theory for us. Lockerfella reached three #1 rankings with zero backlinks because every area page was built from the owner's real job diary. The employment-law firm we have looked after for nearly twenty years ranks across thousands of pages of genuine legal expertise. We hold our own site to PageSpeed 100. And a Staffordshire removals firm, Brewood Removals, replaced roughly 160 near-identical doorway pages with ten deep, real-job pages, because fewer honest pages beat a farm of thin ones.

Nineteen days later ChatGPT and Gemini ranked it first for "Brewood locksmith"; Google followed on day 21. No backlinks, no ad spend, just design and content doing the work.

What Our Clients Say

“I approached Mark at 365i to ask him to migrate my website to their server since my website was very slow on my existing server. Not only did he carry out the migration within 24 hours but he actually completely redesigned my website free-of-charge to a standard that I was blown away by.”
Victor Bluett

Google review via our sister brand 365i, October 2024
“Mark worked tirelessly and managed to not only solve all my website issues but also provide a much better hosting service at a fraction of the cost that I was previously paying. I'm not very technically minded but he was able to explain things in a way I could understand.”
