Web Design & Development

Design and development for fast, search-ready websites, built to convert.

The site is the product SEO has to sell, so we build it to pass every technical check before we ever pitch a client on ranking it. Laravel, WordPress, or headless Jamstack: chosen for the job, not for what's easiest to bill.

Outcome

CWV green · Lighthouse 100 SEO

Every Web Design & Development engagement leads with the metric it moves, not a keyword screenshot.

The problem

A slow site is an SEO ceiling no amount of content breaks through.

Most agencies hand you a design-agency website, then sell you an SEO retainer to fix what the build broke: bloated JS, unoptimised images, no schema, a CMS that fights Core Web Vitals by default. ZiRank builds and ranks under one roof, so the site is built for search from the first commit, not patched after launch.

What does Web Design & Development include?

This is the specific work that makes up a monthly engagement.

  • Corporate Websites

    Multi-page brand sites built on a CMS your team can actually run.

  • Landing Pages

    Single-purpose pages for paid campaigns, launches, and lead magnets.

  • WordPress Development

    Custom lightweight themes, no bloat, for teams who want a familiar editor.

  • Headless / Jamstack

    Astro or Next.js front end plus a headless CMS, for the fastest possible ceiling.

  • CMS Integrations & Migrations

    Moving platforms without losing rankings, content, or your sanity.

  • WooCommerce Development

    A full online store on the WordPress stack your team already knows.

  • Website Maintenance & Care Plans

    Ongoing updates, backups, and small fixes, so the site never goes stale.

  • Website Redesign

    A faster, better-looking site that keeps the rankings the old one earned.

What you get

What's included in your Web Design & Development plan?

Every plan lists what ships and when. No surprise scope, no billable retainer creep.

  • Performance budget enforced at build time: CWV green before launch
  • Semantic HTML, one H1 per page, logical heading order
  • Schema markup (Organization, LocalBusiness, Service, FAQPage) from day one
  • CMS handoff: Filament, WordPress, or Sanity, whichever fits your team
  • Self-hosted fonts, AVIF/WebP image pipeline, zero render-blocking scripts
  • 30-day post-launch support window included

Performance budget

The performance budget we launch against.

Non-negotiable thresholds checked on throttled mobile before any site goes live: the same numbers Google uses to judge Core Web Vitals.

LCP < 2.0s

Largest Contentful Paint

How fast the main content appears: the number visitors actually feel as "load time."

INP < 200ms

Interaction to Next Paint

How responsive the page feels the moment someone taps or clicks.

CLS < 0.1

Cumulative Layout Shift

Whether content jumps around while loading, a top mobile-UX complaint.

JS < 150KB

JavaScript shipped

Total JS on marketing pages: hydrate only what actually needs interactivity.

Sample deliverables

Real artifacts, not slide-deck theatre.

Every Web Design & Development retainer ships these. You keep them all, forever, whether you renew or not.

  • Design system

    Tokens, type scale, and a component library documented so future pages stay on-brand without you.

  • CWV audit report

    Before/after Lighthouse and field-data comparison, so the performance win is provable, not promised.

  • CMS training session

    1-hour walkthrough recorded for your team: how to add pages, edit content, and publish without a developer.

  • 301 redirect map

    Every old URL mapped to its new home before launch, so zero link equity is lost in the move.

How we work

How we run your Web Design & Development engagement.

  1. 01

    Discover

    Sitemap, wireframes, and a content audit of what exists today. We agree the page list and the CMS before any design starts.

  2. 02

    Design

    Design tokens, type scale, and component library, reviewed with you before a single page is built, so revisions happen in Figma, not in code.

  3. 03

    Build

    Semantic, accessible, schema-rich markup shipped against the performance budget from commit one. No "optimise it later."

  4. 04

    Launch

    CWV validated on real mobile throttling, redirects mapped, analytics wired, and a 30-day support window to catch what only real traffic reveals.

Straight answers

Questions we hear about Web Design & Development.

  • Do you guarantee Core Web Vitals will pass?

    Yes, it's a launch requirement, checked before every site goes live. We don't ship a page until LCP, INP, and CLS are all in the 'Good' range on throttled mobile. If a CMS plugin or client-requested feature breaks that budget, we flag it before launch, not after.

  • Can you work with our existing brand and design files?

    Yes. If you have a brand kit (logo, colours, type) we build the site around it. If you only have a logo, we'll propose a full design system for approval before any page is built.

  • What's the difference between WordPress and headless for us?

    WordPress if your team wants to self-edit content daily and is comfortable with a traditional CMS. Headless if performance is the top priority and you can work with a more modern, but less familiar, editing interface. We'll recommend one after the discovery call, not before.

  • Do you handle ongoing maintenance after launch?

    A 30-day support window is included with every build. After that, we offer maintenance retainers, covering security updates, small feature requests, and uptime monitoring, quoted to what your site needs.

  • How long does a typical website build take?

    Landing pages: 3 to 5 business days. Business websites (5 to 8 pages): 3 to 4 weeks. Custom sites (10+ pages): 6 to 8 weeks. Enterprise platforms: discussed in scoping, typically 10 to 16 weeks.
