Website tune-up in Kingston
Your website is turning customers away, and nothing on your screen will tell you
A one-week fix for the problems we find on most Kingston business sites, with a before-and-after you can check.
- 1 week
- from go-ahead to live
If you got an email from us
This summer we ran the same automated checks on 884 Kingston business websites. If we wrote to you, your site failed at least one, and the email named which.
A customer on a phone sees what you don’t. One site in five spills sideways off a phone screen. Two in five give no way to get in touch from the homepage. The customer picks the next result, and you never hear about it.
And if the site runs on a builder or a premium theme, you’re paying for it every month, problems and all.
What gets fixed in the week
-
Missing or broken HTTPS
A valid certificate, so browsers stop warning visitors away.
-
Spilling sideways on a phone
Every page fits the screen it’s on.
-
Slow, heavy pages
Images compressed and resized, and dead weight trimmed.
-
Signs nobody’s home
Old copyright years, COVID notices and dead Universal Analytics tags gone.
-
No way to reach you from the homepage
A way to reach you on the page people land on.
-
Failed accessibility checks
Contrast, link names and image descriptions fixed wherever the check flags them.
Off the template, into a site that’s yours
About a third of Kingston sites run on WordPress, and nearly a quarter on a builder like Wix or Squarespace. They were sensible places to start. The trouble is the template underneath: it makes your business look and read like the next one.
Your business is unique, so your design, code and copy should be too. A tune-up moves your site into the setup we build everything on: custom code, with an editor so you change the words and images yourself.
What moving over gets you
-
Keep your design, if you like it
We move it over as it is and fix the problems.
-
Upgrade later without starting over
When you want a new look, it builds on the site you already have.
-
No more platform fees
No bill for a builder, a premium theme or its plugins. Hosting and your domain stay separate, in your name.
-
Support if you want it, none if you don’t
We can handle updates after launch, or hand everything over. Your call.

How the week goes
Send us the address
Reply to the email or book a call. We re-run the checks and send you the exact list.
One quote, one list
A fixed quote for the whole list, and a date. Nothing gets added without your say.
The fixes
We rebuild the site in our setup on a private link, with the fixes in.
Before and after
It goes live on your domain, with the checks run again beside the first run.
Before you say yes
My site is on Wix, Squarespace or WordPress. Can you still do a tune-up?
Yes, and moving it over is part of the tune-up. We bring your pages, words and images across, fix what was broken, and you cancel the platform once the new site is live.
What if it won’t fit in a week?
A large site, or one that sells online, may need longer. We tell you on the call, before you pay anything.
How do I know it actually got fixed?
You get the same automated checks run before and after, side by side, so you don’t have to take our word for it.
I didn’t get an email. Can I still book this?
Yes. Send us the address and we’ll run the checks, free.
