Services / Web Development

Web development for Johannesburg businesses whose website is currently working against them

Builds, rebuilds, and the unglamorous technical fixes that decide whether Google can find you at all.

The problem

A website that looks fine and performs badly is worse than no website at all, because it convinces you the problem must be somewhere else. Slow load times, broken internal links, duplicate content cannibalising your own product pages, none of it shows up when you glance at the homepage. It shows up in traffic reports nobody reads until the quarter's already over.

We build sites that hold up under that kind of scrutiny, because we go looking for the problems before a client's board does.

What we actually do

Why it's different

Two people build everything here, which sounds like a limitation until you compare it to a ten-person account team where the person who understands your codebase isn't the person answering your emails. Every fix passes through the same hands as the strategy behind it, so a change doesn't have to survive three handoffs and a status meeting before it ships.

How it works

  1. Technical audit. A full pass on what's actually broken: speed, structure, crawl errors, all of it.
  2. Architecture. A sitemap and build plan sized to your real content, not a generic template stretched to fit.
  3. Build. Development in the open, with staging links you can check in on rather than a surprise reveal at the end.
  4. Launch and monitor. We watch the numbers for the first stretch after go-live, because that's when problems actually surface.
