Web design and branding in Sunderland
Sunderland builds cars and, more recently, software. Both industries share a habit of underselling themselves to anyone outside the region.
The automotive supply chain here is world class and frequently invisible online. If a tier-one buyer is shortlisting suppliers, invisible is the same as absent.
What we do in Sunderland
Brand, website and the search work behind it
Four pillars, one team: branding, digital, marketing and automation. Most businesses buy two of them from people who have never spoken to each other.
Visible to the supply chain
The right pages for the right processes, so the buyer searching for exactly what you do can actually find you.
Proof over adjectives
Certifications, tolerances, capacity and named processes. Trade buyers discount everything else.
Systems where they pay back
Quoting, ordering and internal tooling. The website is often the least valuable software we build for a manufacturer.
Client · Search
Kaplan Construction
A construction firm with a site that already worked and no appetite to replace it. We did the search work inside their existing Next.js codebase instead of selling them a rebuild they did not need.

Who we work with
Sectors we take on in Sunderland
We are not sector-specific and we would be suspicious of a studio that claimed to be. What matters more is whether there is something worth looking at and a business willing to invest in how it is presented.
We are in Blackburn and this is remote work. Two hours away, and it has never once been the thing that mattered.
How it works
From a conversation to a live build
No lengthy onboarding, no discovery fee, no twelve-month lock-in. Cancel anytime.
A conversation
What the business does, who it sells to, and what the current site is failing to say. No deck, no discovery fee.
A scope you can read
What we would build, what it costs, and what it does not include. Written plainly enough that you can compare it with someone else's quote.
We build it
Brand, site and the technical search work, made by the same team. You watch it happen in the portal rather than waiting for a monthly update.
It keeps working
Content, search and automation on a monthly retainer, or a clean handover if you would rather run it yourself. Cancel anytime.
Across Tyne and Wear
Also working with businesses near Sunderland
Most of this work is remote, so the same team covers your whole area - whether the business sits in Sunderland itself or the towns around it.
