Services
Essex web design built to help you win locally.
A generic website can cost you credibility, conversions and the Essex customers you should be winning. Every ApolloWeb website is designed and custom-coded in Wickford around your services, customers and local search market. No templates, no page builders and no monthly fees.
01
Lead-generating homepages
Conversion-focused homepage design for Essex businesses, built to capture, qualify and turn local visitors into genuine enquiries.
02
Multi-page websites
Service pages, area pages, about and contact. All custom-coded and tied together with clear intent and a clear path to the call.
03
Local SEO foundations
Page titles, service-area content, schema, internal links and Core Web Vitals built in so Google can understand where you work and what you offer.
04
Sub-second loading
Visitors decide in three seconds whether to stay. Every site we ship aims for sub-second loads on mobile, and we measure it before launch.
05
Mobile-first design
Most of your customers are on a phone. We design for that screen first, then scale up. Never the other way around.
06
Frictionless enquiries
Quote forms, booking widgets, click-to-call and WhatsApp. Engineered so getting in touch takes one tap, not three.
Not sure which pieces you need? We'll figure it out together, for free, before you commit a penny.

FAQ
The honest answers
Questions worth asking, answered straight.
No marketing fluff, no jargon, no small print. If something here isn't covered, just drop us a message and you'll get a real reply, usually within a few hours.
What's the catch with the free mockup?
There isn't one. We design a real homepage concept for your business based on your brand, your services, and the kind of customer you want to win. You only pay if you decide to take it forward. If it's not right for you, you walk away with the visuals and zero obligation.
How long does a website actually take to build?
Your free mockup lands in your inbox within 24–48 hours. From there, a full homepage is designed, built and live in under 3–5 days. Multi-page sites are typically a week, or up to two if you've got a lot of pages. No three-month agency timelines, ever.
Do I own the website and the code?
Yes, completely. Once you've paid, the site is yours. You own the design, the code, the domain, and the content. We don't lock you in, and you can move it anywhere you like at any time.
What about hosting and ongoing costs?
Hosting is free for life as long as your site stays under 5,000 visitors a month, which covers the vast majority of local service businesses. No monthly fees, no retainers, no surprise invoices. A domain is roughly £10–£15 a year and that's billed directly by your registrar.
Can you handle SEO so I show up in Google?
Every site we build ships with the technical SEO foundations in place: clean structure, fast loading, schema markup, and properly written page titles and meta descriptions for your services and area. For ongoing local SEO and content, we can recommend a route that fits your budget.
What if I want changes after the site is live?
Any minor change you want (new phone number, swap a photo, update opening hours, add a service) is done within 24 hours of you asking, free of charge. Forever. Bigger feature additions are quoted up-front at a fair fixed price. No retainers, no contracts.
Which parts of Essex do you cover?
ApolloWeb is based at 49 Oak Cres in Wickford and works with businesses across Essex, including Chelmsford, Colchester, Southend-on-Sea, Basildon, Brentwood, Braintree and Harlow. Meetings, design reviews and handover can all be handled remotely, so we also work with clients throughout the UK.
Are your websites custom-coded or built from templates?
Every ApolloWeb website is custom-coded around the business, its services and its customers. We do not reskin generic page-builder templates. That gives us more control over mobile performance, conversion paths, technical SEO and the final design.
How much does web design in Essex cost?
ApolloWeb websites start from £300. The final fixed price depends on the number of pages, content and functionality required. You can request a free homepage mockup first, so you can judge the direction before committing any money.
Why is your pricing so much lower than other agencies?
Honest answer: I'm a one-person web designer/developer who's leaned heavily into AI-assisted workflows. Sites that used to take a small team weeks to build now take me hours or days. I keep the overhead near zero, pass the savings on, and you get a fully custom-coded result without paying for an agency office, account managers, or months of back-and-forth.
