Core Web Vitals in plain English
“PageSpeed gives us 38 points. Is that a disaster?” Site owners ask us some version of this almost every week. Some got a Search Console email about “poor URLs”, others saw red numbers in a contractor’s report or noticed their site is slower on a phone than a competitor’s. Behind all of these stories are […]
Site migration without losing rankings
“We moved to a new website and our leads from Google disappeared.” A noticeable share of our audits start with that sentence. The story is familiar: a company changes its domain or moves from an old custom system to WordPress, OpenCart or Shopify, the new site goes live on a Friday evening, and two weeks […]
Redesigning a site without losing rankings
“We launched the new site, and a week later we were getting half the enquiries.” We receive emails like this more often than we would like. The new design looks better, the sales team is happy, and yet the graph in Search Console is slowly sliding down. The owner blames Google’s algorithms, but the cause […]

Some want “a quick, cheap landing page”, others “a proper corporate site like the big companies have”, others “just a brochure site with our contacts”. The format usually […]
How to write a website specification
“We need a modern website, like our competitors have, only better.” Many of our first client conversations start this way. The owner knows the business inside out but has no reason to know what a website is made of. The trouble is that everyone on the project pictures that “modern website” differently: the designer sees […]
How much does a website cost
“How much does a website cost?” is the question we hear most often, and we always answer with another: what kind of website? A simple brochure site that goes live in a few weeks and an online store with inventory sync, payments and customer accounts differ not by percentages but by multiples. Owners also often […]
