Imagine someone stuck at the Pelham Bridge lights, phone in hand, finding you before the lights change.
A Lincoln website that works as hard Uphill as it does Downhill, built to convert on a phone, not just look good on a monitor.
Speed is one of the few things that improves your rankings and your conversions at the same time. Every site we build for Lincoln businesses loads in under a second and scores top marks on Google PageSpeed, so you are easy to find and easy to buy from.
A good website should do more than look nice. Affordable web design in Lincoln, from five hundred pounds split evenly across a deposit and completion, gets you a site that people actually find and act on. Everything is in the price, so there is no maths to do later.
The subscription alternative in Lincoln
Rather pay monthly than up front? Alternatively, have you considered our subscription model? One price covers a fast website, local SEO across Lincoln and the LN postcodes and a branded email, all built and maintained for you, so your business gets found when people search instead of sitting invisible on page two.
Fast, modern and built to turn visitors into phone calls. Show off your work, your reviews and your services so getting in touch is the easy choice.
Local SEO puts your business in front of people searching for your trade in your area, right when they need the job doing.
A branded email address on your own domain (you@yourtrade.co.uk) so every message you send looks the part and earns trust straight away.

Working with Darren has been an absolute pleasure. Professional, creative, and his technical expertise exceeded all expectations. He's changed our website completely and we've had so much feedback and leads since.
By far the best referral I've ever had. Completely hassle free, transformed our website, traffic, rating and emails. Nothing is ever too much, and everything moved so smoothly.
Used Design Lincs for our web design and SEO and couldn't be happier. Done quickly but at an amazing standard. Great service, would absolutely recommend.
From the first call they actually listened to what we wanted, and the finished site looks miles better than before. Quick to respond, fair on price, and sorted a couple of tweaks after launch without any fuss.
They didn't just make it look nicer; they thought about how customers use the site and rebuilt it around that. Brilliant communication throughout, a massive step up.
They built us a new website and took over our digital marketing, and the difference has been night and day. Our calls are up and the whole experience was easy. Highly recommended.

Web design | straight to the point
Fifteen minutes on the phone, or face to face if you're Lincoln-based and fancy a coffee. We want to know what's actually wrong with what you've got now, not just what you think you want built. No charge, no pressure.
A clear document, not a verbal figure you have to remember. What gets built, why, the cost, and the timeline. Nothing gets added later that wasn't in here first.
Design gets signed off before a line of code gets written, so there's no rebuilding halfway through. Four to eight weeks is typical, start to launch.
Once it's live, it's yours to run. Update it yourself once we've shown you how, or hand the keeping-it-running part to us. Either way, no contract keeping you there past a month's notice.
A five-page brochure site and a full online shop have almost nothing in common, so we don't start with a template and hope it fits. We start by asking what your customers need to see to pick up the phone, then build backwards from there.
Online booking, a trades site built to turn a phone search into a phone call, a full online shop, or just a clean five-page brochure: we build whichever one your business actually needs, not whichever one we have lying around.
Nothing gets stretched out of a theme with your logo dropped on top. Every layout is designed around your business, your customers and what you want them to do next.
Most Lincoln searches happen on a phone, often outdoors, often in a hurry. A site that only looks good on the big screen in your office is losing you customers you never even see.
Four seconds is roughly how long you get before someone gives up and taps back to Google. A phone halfway up Steep Hill on patchy signal is the worst case we design for, not the exception, and every build is scored against Core Web Vitals.
Every site ships with the technical groundwork local SEO needs already in place, meets WCAG 2.2 accessibility guidelines, so you're not paying for a second project six months later just to get found.
Sole traders. Family firms. Lincoln independents still running on a site someone's nephew built a decade ago that's never once loaded properly on a phone. That's most of who we work with.
Electricians, plumbers, builders, roofers, landscapers covering Lincoln out towards Nettleham and Waddington: people who want a site that answers the phone for them and then gets out of the way while they get on with the job.
We take on bigger builds too, multi-site operations and e-commerce that needs to shift stock. Same attention, whether it's a £1,500 site or a £15,000 one.
There's no single number, because a five-page site for a sole trader and a full online shop cost genuinely different amounts to build well. What you will get is a clear written quote before anything starts, not a figure that creeps upward once you've committed. Most Lincoln small business sites we build land somewhere between a few hundred pounds and a few thousand, depending on the brief.
Four to eight weeks, typically, from the day we start to the day it goes live. The thing that actually slows a build down almost never is us, it's waiting on your photos, your copy, your logo files. Hand it all over on day one and we'll move as fast as the build allows.
Yes, if you want to. Your site is hand-coded in HTML, CSS and PHP and we can build in a simple editing area, so text, images, prices and a blog if you want one are all editable without calling us first. We'll show you how before we hand it over. Prefer to leave the updates to us instead? That's fine too, it's not written into a contract either way.
Your call. We run fast, UK-based hosting at a sensible monthly rate if you'd rather it was one less thing to think about. Or keep your own hosting and we'll build to sit on it. Neither option costs you our support.
Usually. If the foundations are sound, a redesign gets you there quicker and cheaper than tearing it all down and starting again. If it's built on something so old or broken that patching it costs more than a fresh build, we'll say so plainly rather than take the job anyway.
Wherever your customers actually are. Uphill around the Cathedral Quarter and Bailgate, Downhill through the city centre and Brayford, and out to Birchwood, Boultham, Skellingthorpe, Waddington, North Hykeham and the Nettleham side of LN2. We'd pick the handful of postcodes that match your business rather than claim the whole city.
A quick message or a phone call, no obligation and no hard sell. We'll come back with a straight answer on whether we can help and what it would cost.
Call us today, and we'll help you figure out the best solution for your business.
