Can you connect booking, chat or our other tools?

Yes. We connect the tools you already use, from booking software to email marketing and your customer system and can add an AI assistant to answer common questions and catch leads.

Do you only work with businesses in Leeds?

No. We are based in Leeds and work with businesses across Yorkshire and the rest of the UK, mostly over video calls with the odd in-person meeting when it helps.

Who owns the site and how do we start?

You own the site and everything on it. To start, send a short brief through the contact form and we will book a call to plan the pages, the timeline and a fixed price.

Tracking that shows which pages bring in enquiries.

Designed to bring in enquiries.

Every page is planned so visitors know what you do, trust you quickly and find it easy to get in touch. Bold headlines, well-placed buttons, fast loading and proof up front, all working together to turn a visit into an enquiry.

How we approach it.

Open any area to see how we actually do it. No filler, just what you get and why it helps.

We start with how people will actually use your site, not how it looks on a mood board. We map the route through your pages, sketch rough layouts first, then build a set of design pieces we reuse across the site. You get something that is easy to use and easy to grow.

User flows
Page layouts
Reusable design
Easy navigation

A good looking site that brings in no enquiries is an expensive business card. We get the message right, put the buttons where people expect them and design forms folk actually finish. Every page moves someone one step closer to getting in touch.

Bold buttons
Easy forms
Trust signals

Speed matters more than people think. A slow site loses visitors before they have seen what you offer. We keep everything light, size your images properly and set the site up to load quickly. We test on real phones so it feels fast for the people who count, your customers.

Smart images
Quick loading

More people now find businesses through Google and AI tools like ChatGPT. We build your site so both can read it easily, with sensible headings, helpful links and direct answers to the questions people really ask. That is how you get found and increasingly how you get recommended.

Google ready
AI friendly
Helpful links
Direct answers

You should not have to ring us to change a phone number. We build in WordPress with reusable blocks and a few sensible guard rails, so your team can update text, swap images and add pages without breaking the layout. We hand over short training videos too, so nobody is left guessing.

Selling online means the behind the scenes parts have to work properly. Payments, delivery and the emails that follow an order. We set up your shop or booking system so it feels part of the site, looks right on a phone and makes buying or booking as easy as it should be.

Online payments
Shop setup
Bookings
Order emails

You cannot improve what you cannot see. We set up tracking so you know which pages bring in enquiries and which ones quietly do nothing. We give you the numbers you can act on, in a form you can actually use.

The Waywest Design studio on St Paul's Street in Leeds

Pop in for a coffee on St Paul's Street.

We are not a faceless agency or a call centre. Our studio sits at 55 St Paul's Street in the middle of Leeds, a short walk from the station. You are welcome to come in, meet the team and plan your project over a proper brew. If you are further afield, a video call works just as well.

See where we work

The questions we get asked most.

Straight answers on cost, timings, getting found on Google and AI and what happens after launch.

Everything from the first plan to launch. We design the site, sort the content, build it in easy-to-edit WordPress, set it up to be found on Google and AI tools, check it works for everyone, then train your team. Hosting, domains, business email, backups and a care plan are part of it. Branding and ongoing SEO are there as extras if you want them.

Most sites go live in three to eight weeks. A small site can be two to four weeks, while bigger shops or custom builds run eight to twelve weeks or more. The main thing that moves the date is how quickly content and feedback come back to us.

You get a fixed price after a short call. As a guide, smaller sites start in the low thousands and larger sites cost more depending on what they need. Tell us what you are after and we will put a price in writing for you and you decide.

Yes. We carry over your important pages, point old web addresses to the new ones so you keep your rankings and launch carefully so the site never drops offline. Once it is live we keep an eye on it and fix anything that slips.

Yes, speed is built in. We keep pages light, size images properly and use quick UK hosting, then test on real phones. A fast site keeps visitors around and helps your Google ranking.

Yes. Our content team can write your copy and shoot photos and short videos that match your brand. We can hand you a site that is ready to go live, words and images included.

Yes. We build online shops with secure payments, well-organised product pages and the order emails that go with them, using whichever shop system fits your business best.

Yes. We connect the tools you already use, from booking software to email marketing and your customer system. We can also add an AI assistant to answer common questions and catch leads out of hours.

Yes, we can handle the lot. Your domain, hosting, business email, security and backups all sit on quick UK servers, looked after by one team.

Yes. Our monthly care plans cover updates, backups, security and small changes, so your site stays fast and safe. You can also call on us for bigger changes as your business grows.

Yes. We follow accessibility good practice so more people can use your site and we add a proper cookie banner and privacy wording so you are covered.

Yes. We build in WordPress with reusable blocks and a few guard rails, so your team can change text, swap images and add pages without breaking the layout. We hand over short training videos too.

No. We are based in Leeds and work with businesses right across Yorkshire and the rest of the UK. Most of it happens over video calls, with the odd in-person meeting when it helps.

That is the aim. We set the site up with sensible headings, helpful internal links and direct answers to common questions, which is what Google and AI tools like ChatGPT look for when they pick what to show and recommend.

You own the site and everything on it. To start, send a short brief through the form below and we will book a call to plan the pages, the timeline and a fixed price.

We usually take a deposit to book the work in, then the balance at launch, with larger projects split into stages. You get an invoice for each step and a price agreed up front.
