It takes too long to load
Uncompressed photos, a bloated theme, unnecessary plugins. Past three seconds on an average rural connection, a good share of visitors have already closed the tab.

The real issue
What makes a visitor leave in ten seconds
Most small business websites don't lose customers on looks. They lose them on three things that are straightforward to fix.
Nobody can tell what you do
A vague slogan in large type, the useful information buried three pages deep. A visitor should know in one sentence what you do, for whom, and where.
Getting in touch is too hard
Phone number in the footer, an eight-field form, opening hours nowhere to be found. Every extra click between intent and action costs you an enquiry.
What you get
A finished website, not an empty shell
Designed for your trade
Drawn for your business and your colours. If you already have printed materials, the site matches them exactly — we print those too.
Phone first
Most of your visitors arrive on a phone, often standing outside. The site is built for that screen first, then widened for desktop.
Genuinely fast
Optimised images, light code, quick hosting. A fast site ranks better and converts better — it isn't a detail.
Found locally
Structured data, pages built around trade and town, and a Google Business profile that matches the site exactly.
A form that arrives
Straight to your inbox, spam-protected, with an automatic acknowledgement to whoever wrote to you.
Readable by everyone
Sufficient contrast, keyboard navigation, alt text throughout. Good for your visitors, and good for your ranking.
Working in English
You won't be translating anything twice
Eymet and the surrounding villages have a settled English-speaking community, and much of the Bergerac area lives on English-speaking visitors. We deal with that every week.
Quotes, invoices and project discussions happen in English. The website itself can be English-only, French-only, or both — and if it's both, we handle the French copy so it reads like French rather than a translation.
- Quotes and invoices in English
- Bilingual sites where it makes sense
- French copy written by a French speaker
- We explain the paperwork you'll run into
How it works
How a project runs
- 01
We talk
An hour to understand your business, your customers and what you want the site to do. No jargon, in English.
- 02
You see the design
Every page, before a single line of code. Changes at this stage cost nothing.
- 03
We build
Integration, content, optimisation. You follow progress on a private test address.
- 04
We launch
Domain, hosting, Google listing, redirects. Then a session so you can edit everything yourself.
Frequently asked
What people ask us
Yes — meetings, quotes, invoices and support. It's routine here: Eymet has a long-established English-speaking community and we've been working with it for years.
It depends who pays you. If your customers are mostly British residents and visitors, English first. If you also want French locals, bilingual is worth it — and we write the French properly rather than running your English through a translator.
You do. The domain is in your name, the code is yours, and you can take it elsewhere if you ever want to. We don't rent websites.
Hosting and the domain name, both modest and clearly stated up front. There's no subscription for the site itself and no commission on what it earns you.
