Redesign

Website Redesign Services

Most redesign damage happens on launch day, when URLs change and years of search visibility disappear overnight. A redesign is as much a migration project as a design project, and we treat it that way.

What this covers

What we do

Audit first

What currently ranks, what converts, what breaks — established before anything is redrawn.

Mobile experience

Rebuilding for the device most of your traffic actually arrives on.

Speed and Core Web Vitals

Fixing the load-time problems that no amount of visual polish compensates for.

Navigation and structure

Reorganising pages around what visitors look for rather than your internal org chart.

SEO migration

URL mapping, 301 redirects, metadata carry-over and post-launch monitoring in Search Console.

Content transfer

Moving and improving existing content instead of dropping pages that quietly earn traffic.

Deliverables

What you receive

  • Pre-redesign audit: traffic, rankings, speed, conversion paths
  • URL mapping sheet with a redirect for every old page
  • Redesigned templates for desktop and mobile
  • Content migration with metadata preserved
  • Post-launch crawl, redirect verification and monitoring
  • Before-and-after performance comparison
Before and after

What actually changes

A redesign is worth doing when these specific things are wrong. If your current site is already fast, converting and maintainable, we will tell you so.

Mobile experience

Before: Desktop layout squeezed onto a phone; tap targets too small

After: Mobile designed independently and tested on real devices

Load time

Before: Uncompressed images and unused scripts on every page

After: Image pipeline, code splitting and font strategy measured against Core Web Vitals

Navigation

Before: Menu organised around your internal departments

After: Structured around what visitors actually search for

Enquiries

Before: One generic form, often not delivering reliably

After: Purpose-built enquiry paths with delivery monitoring

Search visibility

Before: URLs changed at launch with no redirects; rankings lost

After: Every legacy URL mapped and redirected, verified by crawl after launch

Content updates

Before: Every text change requires a developer

After: Editable blocks with a documented editing guide

How we work

From idea
to online.

Eight stages, in order, with what happens at each one. Domain and hosting decisions are made in week one rather than the night before launch.

  1. 01

    Discover

    Understand the business, the buyer and the constraints.

    What you sell, who decides, what they need to know first, and what is currently getting in the way. This is also where domain and hosting decisions get made rather than left to launch week.

    Week 1
  2. 02

    Plan

    Sitemap, page structure and content requirements.

    Every page defined, every URL agreed, and a clear list of what content is needed from you. Waiting on content is the single most common cause of delay, so we surface it early.

    Week 1–2
  3. 03

    Design

    Wireframes, then full design for mobile and desktop.

    Structure is agreed before visuals. You review a clickable prototype rather than a static image, so navigation and flow can be judged properly.

    Week 2–4
  4. 04

    Develop

    Build the front-end, CMS, forms and integrations.

    Built on staging where you can watch it come together. Content is loaded as it becomes available rather than in one blocked-up batch at the end.

    Week 4–7
  5. 05

    SEO foundation

    Metadata, structure, schema, sitemap and redirects.

    Technical SEO is part of the build, not an add-on afterwards. For redesigns, this is also where the URL map and redirect plan get finalised.

    Week 6–7
  6. 06

    Test

    Devices, browsers, forms, speed and accessibility.

    Real device testing, form delivery verification, Core Web Vitals measurement and an accessibility pass — before launch, not after a complaint.

    Week 7–8
  7. 07

    Launch

    DNS, hosting, SSL, redirects and Search Console.

    A controlled cutover with a rollback plan. Redirects verified by crawl, Search Console and analytics confirmed working on day one.

    Week 8
  8. 08

    Maintain

    Updates, backups, monitoring and support.

    Scheduled work under a maintenance plan or AMC, so the site does not quietly decay after handover.

    Ongoing

Durations describe a typical ten-to-fifteen page business website. Your timeline is confirmed in the proposal.

FAQ

Website Redesign — questions

It can, if URLs change without redirects or content is dropped. Done carefully, rankings usually hold and often improve as speed and structure get better. We map every URL before launch and monitor Search Console after.
