Are Web designers still needed?
There are lots of cheap website design tools available online. You might be wondering – If anyone can create a website, why should your business use a design and build agency like Affordable Website Design Digital? Creating a website yourself may seem like an appealing way to cut marketing costs but you should consider three things before making that decision.
- Do you know how to create a website that will convert users into customers?
- Do you know how to make a website that will perform well in Google and other search engines?
- Do you know how to use other marketing channels to provide the best online experience for your customers and target audiences?
We believe that marketing-minded web designers can be extremely useful to businesses that want to increase their visibility online.
Using a bristol based website design agency
If you want a website that will help your business to grow we strongly recommend considering an agency that has experience and expertise in digital marketing too.
At Affordable Website Design Digital, we design and build websites that will give you a competitive edge over businesses that build their own websites or use ‘design only’ agencies. As an agency, we have specialist knowledge of all marketing channels and disciplines. We use that knowledge to inform and influence every aspect of our website design and build projects.
Our websites are built for both the user AND search engines. We also build websites with the following digital marketing channels in mind:
We build customised websites that meet our clients needs and help their businesses to grow.
The benefits of custom website design
Unlike social media channels that have fixed template designs and user interfaces, a website can be completely customised to your brand. Whether it’s the look and feel of your business or the way you present your products and services, a customised website can be completely shaped to present your business in the best way possible.
A customised website:
- A customised website is your chance to convince your customer that they should stop looking at the alternatives and confidently choose you.
- A customised website provides valuable opportunities to shape how people understand and feel about your brand.
- A customised website can also help to convert a customer at any point in the conversion funnel
Whether you sell products or offer specialist services, a well-designed, customised website is the perfect place to inform and convince a user that they should choose you instead of one of your competitors.
Marketing focused websites - a smart investment
There are hundreds of young businesses in Bristol. In the early stages they are very conscious of where their money is being spent. Many cannot afford to spend thousands of pounds on a website. They want a website quickly so that they can start getting new business.
Speak to any graphic designer or web developer and they will explain their frustrations with the following question:
Can you build me a website any cheaper and faster than projected?
We understand why these are valid questions for business owners.
Cost and time are a business’ biggest challenges when thinking about starting a website. They want to spend the minimum amount of money on a good website that they can have quickly. However, much like everything in life, we believe that you get what you pay for.
If a website is built correctly by skilled and knowledgeable marketing specialists and web developers, it can return on your initial investment very quickly. This is because marketing has been a central consideration throughout the design and build of that website. If your website is built with marketing as a central function you will convert visitors into customers.
But you don’t have to break the bank to get a marketing focussed website.
A website that is specifically designed and built to help you convert your customers online is a smart and safe business investment.
How do I know if I need a new website for my bristol based business?
- Do you need to improve your website?
- Do you know how to make a website that will perform well in Google and other search engines?
Both of the above questions are really important if you want your business to survive. It’s even more important if you have ambitions for business growth, especially if your website is business-critical.
Business-critical websites - A typical example of a business critical website is a platform that allows your customers to sign up to comms or services, contact you directly for support or buy products and services. If your website is vital in how your business operates it needs to work well and perform for you.
- Your website has very low or low levels of traffic
- Your website gets traffic but you don’t receive any enquiries (either emails or calls) through it
- Your website attracts visitors but people leave quickly
- Your website isn’t a true reflection of who you want to be in the market
- Your website isn’t attracting the right visitors
- Visitors only visit one page on your website (unless it’s the contact page)

Affordable Website Design Digital: a bristol WordPress website design agency
.
Much of that comes down to how your website looks and functions. Combined with a cost consideration, a website needs to work for you and your business. That’s why we exclusively use WordPress to design and develop websites for our clients.
Why do we use WordPress to design and develop websites
Out of the box, WordPress is very minimalistic. It does exactly what it says it can and it does it well. We use premium WordPress templates that are specific to your individual niche and alter them based on your colours, your branding and any images you may currently have.
Not only are they bespoke, professional and perfectly optimised but they are very affordable.
One of the best things about WordPress is that it is completely free forever. There are no hidden costs. This means that you get a website that won’t require additional investment in the future.
A WordPress website is affordable and offers everything your business needs.
Bespoke WordPress Web Design
You might be wondering, “what if WordPress can’t do this?” We guarantee that whatever “this” is, someone has created it for WordPress. With so many people using WordPress, professional developers have filled a market by creating “Plugins” that add extra functionality to WordPress websites.
WORDPRESS HAS EVERY FEATURE YOUR BUSINESS NEEDS
One of the connotations that you might have about WordPress is that its website templates are ugly: it doesn’t look as good as a professionally designed website. This is where we add value.
At Affordable Website Design Digital we have a skilled in-house graphic designer who is able to design and build your business a website which is both functional and beautiful. Utilising the knowledge of CRO and SEO specialists in our team, we deliver effective and powerful websites at an achievable cost for you.
Edit yourself
WordPress is very simple to use.
WordPress is the equivalent of Microsoft Word. It offers the ability to drag and drop content, images, videos exactly where you want them to appear on your website.
Take a look at the video below to see just how easy it is to add a new post.
This makes it a perfect platform for you to make changes to your website yourself. We believe you should be able to make any changes you want to your website and not be at the mercy of the designers who built it.
However, we’re here to help if you want us to make those changes too.
Website features - Mobile first website design
This is one of the most important website build considerations. Mobile First is a modern design and build strategy for developing and maintaining websites. Mobile First should now be the way that all websites are designed and built as an absolute requirement.
When we start a website project, we think ‘Mobile First’ for several reasons. Mobile responsive frameworks are often used to design websites but a Mobile First approach to design places the needs of a mobile users’ needs as the most important aspect of the website experience.
So, rather than making a desktop website and then forcing it to fit in a mobile box, you create a website that considers the majority of users (on mobile) first.
For the user:
57% of internet users say they won’t recommend a business with a poorly designed website on mobile
For Search Engines:
When Google ranks your website it will judge how the website works on mobile devices BEFORE it looks at a desktop version. This is why it is so important that your website is designed and built for mobile devices first.
Website features - multimedia experiences created in bristol
Another major ranking factor for SERPs is how useful your website content is for visitors. Search engines know that different types of media can be useful to different types of customers across a variety of browsing devices.
A website should be able to present and support a variety of media types such as:
- Written content
- Videos
- Images
- Infographics
Bespoke website design: Our Process
Our approach to designing and developing a new website involves 4-steps that we follow for each website build project. Each phase involves collaboration with the client so that they have complete visibility of every detail.
Understanding Your Requirements
After receiving your enquiry from the calculator above, we will look at your existing website (if you have one) as well as your industry, colours, features and any other details you shared with us and come up with a few possible templates that would fit your design and business model.

Tweaks & Setup
Testing & Going Live

Building websites in bristol: best practice
Throughout the design and build process we also look at different aspects of web design that must be considered:
We look at your competitors websites to see if there is anything we should include. We’ll never copy. Instead, we’ll learn and build a better version of what already exists.
Understanding your customers and target audiences helps us to design a website that will appeal to who you want to attract.
An intuitive and logical website structure is probably one of the most important things to achieve, not just for website users but search engines too.
User Experience (or UX) is another aspect of website design that is vital to the success of your website. We look at site architecture and user experience using wireframes and page models to ensure we’re creating useful and helpful websites.
Heat maps and additional analytics allow us to test user journeys as we build and develop websites. This is very important for user experience.
