A local web designer for Canterbury

I'm Lee, a web designer based in Kent. I work with businesses across Canterbury and the district—from the historic centre to Whitstable, Herne Bay, Sturry, and the villages. Whether you're a B&B near the Cathedral, a shop on the high street, or a tradesperson in Chartham, I'm here to help.

When you work with me, you get a local designer who can meet you in person, understands your area, and won't charge London prices. No agencies, no middlemen — just me.

FAQ

Questions about web design in Canterbury

Straight answers. No jargon.

Can you meet me in Canterbury or Whitstable?

Yes. I'm based near Maidstone and happy to travel to Canterbury. We can meet in the city centre, Whitstable, Herne Bay, or somewhere that suits you—or we can talk by phone or video if that's easier.

How much does a website cost?

It depends on the size and features you need. Most brochure sites for small businesses start from a few hundred pounds. Get in touch for a free, no-obligation quote tailored to your business.

Do you work with tourism and hospitality businesses?

Yes. Canterbury has a strong tourism sector—hotels, B&Bs, restaurants, and attractions. I build websites that help visitors find you and book. Local SEO is especially valuable for "things to do in Canterbury" and "restaurants near the Cathedral".

How long does it take to build a website?

Most projects are live within 2–3 weeks. We'll agree a timeline at the start and keep you in the loop. It depends on how much content you have ready and how many rounds of feedback you'd like.

Can you help me rank on Google in Canterbury?

Yes. We build sites with local search in mind and offer a Local SEO service to help you show up when people search for your services in Canterbury, Whitstable, Herne Bay, and across the district. Find out more on our Local SEO page.
