Who it's for

Built for the businesses on your high street and on the coast.

The same four kinds of business keep every town going, from County Durham to Marbella. Most web shops sell them a template and a monthly fee. We build the site around the business, and if your customers arrive in two languages, so does the site.

01

Restaurants & bars

Menus that read well on a phone, opening hours Google can trust, and a booking button that works. Chiringuito to fine dining.

02

Property & rentals

Sales, lettings, management and holiday lets. Listings that load fast, enquiry forms that reach you, and both languages ranking.

03

Health & wellness

Clinics, dentists, physios, yoga, personal trainers. Clear services, clear prices, and a way to book that isn't a DM.

04

Trades & services

Pool care, air-con, builders, electricians, gardeners. A site that says what you do, where you work, and how to call you — nothing more.

Two languages, done properly

Trade in two languages? Google needs telling which page is which.

On the Costa del Sol half your customers search in Spanish, and a translated page on its own isn't enough. Search engines need a signal called hreflang that pairs every English page with its Spanish twin. Get it wrong and the two versions compete against each other; get it right and each ranks for the people searching in that language.

  • Every page paired English and Spanish versions linked to each other in the code, on every page, with a sensible default for everyone else.
  • Real translation Copy written in Spanish, not run through a plug-in. Paid translated copy is proofread by a native speaker before it goes live.
  • Local search in both languages Business details, hours and services marked up so Google Maps and search results show the right thing in the right language.
  • One site, one domain No separate Spanish site to maintain. Language folders on the domain you already own.
<!-- on every English page --> <link rel="alternate" hreflang="en" href="https://yourbusiness.es/"> <link rel="alternate" hreflang="es" href="https://yourbusiness.es/es/"> <link rel="alternate" hreflang="x-default" href="https://yourbusiness.es/"> <!-- and the mirror of it on every Spanish page -->

Recent builds.

Every site is designed around the business's own story, not a theme. Here's the most recent.

Restaurant, bar & delicatessen · County Durham, UK

The Fifth Quarter

A restaurant opening in 2027 on the old Lambton coal estate, named for the Five Quarter seam beneath it. The site tells that story with a drawn cross-section of the coalfield, chalkboard menus that mirror the real boards in the room, and a design taken straight from the navy-and-gold sign. Seven menus on one page, no JavaScript needed for the tabs, loads instantly.

The two demo sites are fictional businesses, built to show the bilingual approach. Both are marked as such in their footers.

About

Eighteen years of digital systems. Now, AI-first web.

"We spent eighteen years building and maintaining digital systems that weren't allowed to fail. We build websites the same way."

  • WhoA small team of engineers based in the UK and on the Costa del Sol, working remotely for clients in both and beyond. Over eighteen years in digital and IT systems for industry, now applying AI to web design and small-business automation.
  • MethodHand-built static sites, no bloated frameworks, tested like equipment before hand-over. AI tooling in the workshop means faster builds and sharper copy. A person at the other end of the phone means it gets fixed when something changes.
  • AIWhere it earns its place, we add it: a bilingual assistant that answers common questions, automated replies to enquiries, content kept current. Quoted separately and only when it helps the business.

In industry, a website is the least of anyone's worries. But the habits stick: check things twice, document what you did, don't leave a job half-finished, and build so the next person can pick it up.

That's the whole pitch. We're not the cheapest or the flashiest studio on the coast. We're the one whose sites will still load fast in three years, whose hosting bill is close to zero, and who answers the phone when the menu changes.

If you'd rather talk in person, we're happy to meet in the UK or on the coast. Everything else happens over WhatsApp and a call, which is how most of the work gets done anyway.
