What you get

Everything your website needs. One person accountable for all of it.

No juggling a designer, a developer and an SEO agency. I handle the lot — and I explain everything in plain English.

Design + Build

A site built for your business

Designed around what your customers actually do — call, book, order, find you. Fast, mobile-first and easy to update.

Local SEO

Show up when locals search

Set up correctly for Google from day one — local search, maps, page speed and the technical details most sites get wrong.

Monthly care

Looked after, always

Hosting, security updates, backups, small changes and a monthly report. Your site stays fast, safe and current.

Direct line

Talk to the person who built it

No account managers, no ticket queues. Message me and the person who answers is the person who does the work.

How it works

A clear pipeline from first call to launch

You'll always know what stage we're at, what I'm doing, and what I need from you.

  1. WK 01 — BRIEF

    We talk, I listen

    A call about your business, your customers and what the site needs to do. You get a fixed-price proposal — no surprises later.

  2. WK 01–02 — DESIGN

    You see it before it's built

    A design of your homepage to react to. Two rounds of revisions are included, so we shape it together.

  3. WK 02–03 — BUILD

    Built fast, built right

    Modern tooling means I build in days what agencies quote months for — without cutting corners on speed, SEO or accessibility.

  4. WK 03–04 — LAUNCH

    Live, tested, handed over

    Tested on real phones, connected to Google, and handed over with a walkthrough so you know how everything works.

  5. ONGOING — CARE

    I stay in your corner

    A monthly care plan keeps the site updated, backed up and improving — with a plain-English report so you can see it working.

About

I'm Ashton Dyke. AD-Design is me.

I build websites for local businesses because I think you deserve the same quality of web work the big brands get — without the agency price tag, the jargon, or the six-month timeline.

I use the latest tools — including AI — to work faster than a traditional agency. But the tools aren't the point. The point is your phone ringing, your calendar filling, and a website you're proud to send people to.

Every project is fixed-price, every stage is explained, and everything I promise is written down before you pay a penny.

AD-Design is part of SAIREN Ltd, an established technology company — so behind the personal service sits proper infrastructure, security practice and business continuity.
