Forward thinking
You may not yet know how the site should look or feel. That is fine. I will advise from current practice, not last year’s template.
Independent website design
A website that earns its keep
Clear, useful websites for shops, trades, venues and local services. Designed with you, built to work on every screen, and supported after launch.
Reasonable pricing
Pricing is fair to both sides. Options exist so a one-person business and a growing team can both take this on.
Reasonable timescales
Clear dates from the start, so you can get to market without a six-month fog of “nearly ready”.
Responsive websites
Every site works on desktops, tablets and phones. A sale should never be lost because the layout broke on a small screen.
Ongoing support
If you do not want to manage the site yourself, I stay available. Weekday or weekend, the point is that you are not left alone with it.

Reviews from satisfied customers of KeelingWeb
KeelingWeb did a first-class job of the design and build. The advice on layout was practical, including extra pages we had not thought of. Anyone needing a new site or a sensible refresh should get in touch.
Ken H. — walking group
Nothing was too much trouble. The site is easy for customers to use and just as easy for us to keep current. We would recommend the service without hesitation.
Tracey H. — independent studio
The brief was understood first time. The structure for gathering information took the stress out of the project. Ongoing support is prompt and good value — we will stay here as the company grows.
Jenny M. — product brand
We wanted something modern that still worked on a phone. That is exactly what arrived. Professional, available, and a pleasure to work with.
Angie G. — venue
Notes
Latest from the desk
A website is not a brochure you publish once
Most businesses do not fail online because the first design was ugly. They fail because nobody is looking after the thing six months later.
What “responsive” actually has to mean
If a customer cannot book, buy or call from a phone in one hand, the site is not finished — however good it looks on a desktop.
