Web design, development and SEO across Northumberland
Web design, development and SEO for Northumberland businesses — findable across the county, however rural.
Northumberland's businesses are spread across England's most beautiful county — coast, castles, Hadrian's Wall and dark skies — and that distance makes being findable online matter more, not less. We build sites that pull visitors and customers in from wherever they're searching.
Tourism is Northumberland's engine. Holiday cottages, hotels and B&Bs, the castles at Alnwick, Bamburgh and Warkworth, the Northumberland Coast, Kielder's dark skies, farm shops and food producers — a huge share of the county's trade depends on visitors who plan their trips entirely online, often before they've ever set foot in the North East. Add the independent retailers and rural service businesses scattered from Morpeth to Hexham to Berwick, and the pattern is the same: when your customers are searching from a hundred miles away, a fast, well-optimised, mobile-first website isn't a nice-to-have, it's the shop window. Many rural competitors have barely any web presence at all, which makes the opportunity unusually large.

Built for Northumberland, not bolted on
Built for the visitor economy
Holiday lets, hospitality and attractions live on trip-planning searches. We build fast, image-led sites that rank for them and drive direct bookings — fewer third-party commissions.
Findable from anywhere
Your customers search before they travel. We structure your site and local SEO so you surface for the right places and intent, county-wide and beyond.
Food, drink and farm retail
For producers and farm shops, we build Shopify and custom stores that sell beyond the gate — properly structured, fast, and ready to ship.
We run a Northumberland holiday let or B&B — can you get us direct bookings?
Yes, and it's one of the highest-return things we do. A fast, well-optimised site that ranks for trip-planning searches wins direct bookings and cuts the commission you hand to listing platforms.
Can you sell our Northumberland food or drink products online?
Yes. We build Shopify and custom e-commerce for producers and farm shops — structured, fast and ready to ship across the country, not just sell at the gate.
We're rural with patchy signal — does that affect the site?
It's exactly why we build lean, server-rendered sites that load fast on a weak mobile connection. Your visitors — and you — shouldn't need full bars to load a page.
Do you cover the whole county?
Yes — from Morpeth and Cramlington up to Alnwick, Hexham and Berwick, and the coast and hills in between. Being Newcastle-based keeps us close to all of it.
