What is Web Design & Development?

What is Web Design & Development?

Web Design & Development is custom website design and build work for local businesses that need a clear, fast, mobile-first website. It gives customers the information they need, makes it easy to enquire, and supports search visibility from day one.

For a Brighton business, a good website is more than an online brochure. It is the place where your reputation, services, reviews, contact options, and booking journey come together so people can decide quickly.

Cloud Hak builds websites on WordPress, GoHighLevel, or static HTML depending on what the business actually needs. We also connect related services such as SEO, AEO, and AI Chatbots when they will help the site generate more enquiries.

FAQ

Common questions about Web Design & Development

How long does a website take?

A typical Cloud Hak website takes 2-4 weeks from discovery to launch. Larger sites, copywriting, booking systems, or complex integrations can take longer, but we give you a clear timeline before work starts.

Do you use templates?

No, we do not rely on generic templates. We design and build around your business, your customers, and the actions you want visitors to take.

What platform do you build on?

We build on WordPress, GoHighLevel, or static HTML depending on your needs. WordPress is flexible for content-heavy sites, GoHighLevel works well for sales funnels and CRM, and static HTML is fast for simple sites.

Do you handle hosting?

Yes, we can handle hosting setup and deployment for you. We will recommend the simplest reliable option for your budget and technical needs.

How much does a website cost?

A Cloud Hak website starts from £1,500 depending on scope. The final price depends on page count, content, integrations, booking tools, and whether you need ongoing support.

What about ongoing maintenance?

Ongoing maintenance is available as an optional retainer. It can include updates, edits, performance checks, analytics reviews, and support when you need changes.
