Valten Studio

Web design for small businesses, built to bring in work.

We design the site around the one thing you need a customer to do: ring, book or ask for a quote. It loads fast on a phone, the domain and the code are yours from day one, and the price is fixed before work starts.

Why small business sites bring in nothing.

  • It was built for a desktop

    Most of your visitors arrive on a phone, halfway through deciding. Make them pinch and zoom, and they go back to the search results and ring someone else.

  • Nobody can see what to do next

    Six buttons, a slider and a paragraph about your values leave a visitor to work out how to reach you. The phone number belongs on the first screen.

  • It takes too long to appear

    Each second of white screen on a phone loses you people who would have read on. A site you are proud of does you no good if nobody waits for it.

  • It talks about you, and they want a job done

    Family-run since 1998 matters less to a customer than whether you can fix their boiler this week. The work, the area and the price come first.

What you get.

The same foundations go into each build, whatever the page count.

  • A design made for your business, with no template underneath
  • Every page written and laid out around one clear next step
  • Built to load fast on a phone, on a normal connection
  • Contact, booking or quote flow set up and tested end to end
  • Accessible to the WCAG 2.2 AA standard, so nobody is locked out
  • English and Portuguese versions where you need both
  • The domain, the content and the code, yours from day one

Sites that earn their keep.

Two live sites we designed and built, with figures from the clients' own analytics.

  • The MMACA home page: the double-M monogram, a five-item menu, and a welcome headline above a get-started button.

    MMACA

    Software, IT consulting, information services and a concierge arm, sorted into one site a buyer can read.

  • The Woodio International Trade home page: the wordmark, a request-a-quote button in the header, and a service promise over a London river view.

    A wholesale supplier with seven product and service areas, each with its own path to a quote.

How the build runs.

  1. 01

    Discover

    A twenty-minute call about your customers and what you need them to do. You get a fixed quote in writing, and a straight answer if a new site is the wrong spend.

  2. 02

    Design

    Real pages with your words and your photos, so you judge the site you will get. Two rounds of revisions are part of the price.

  3. 03

    Build

    We build it to load fast and test it on real phones, forms and bookings included, before anyone else sees it.

  4. 04

    Grow

    After launch, a care plan keeps the site quick, current and found. It is optional, and it cancels with 30 days' notice.

What it costs.

Starting prices for a business in the United Kingdom, before VAT. A short call turns one of them into a fixed quote.

  • Landing page

    from£450

    One page, one action. For a single offer, a launch, or an ad campaign.

  • Starter website

    from£800

    Up to 5 pages. The essentials, built to bring in enquiries.

  • Business website

    from£1,300

    5–10 pages with a CMS you edit yourself. Our most common build.

  • E-commerce website

    from£2,550

    A shop: products, payments, and orders that run without you.

  • Care plan, Basic

    £40/mo

    Hosting, daily backups, updates and monitoring. The site stays up.

Each price assumes an agreed page count, two rounds of revisions, and words and photos from you. Pay 50/50, 40% and three monthly payments, or twelve monthly payments with a 12% plan fee.

Asked first.

Who owns the website?

You do. The domain, the content and the code are yours from day one, and nothing about the build ties you to us.

Can I update it myself?

The Business website comes with an editor for the parts that change, such as prices, hours and photos. On smaller builds, the Care Plus plan covers small content changes each month.

Do I have to write the words?

The prices assume you supply them, and we shape them into pages. If you would rather we wrote the copy, we add it to the quote.

Will the site show up on Google?

A fast site with clear pages gives Google something to work with, and nobody can promise you a position. Our local SEO work covers the map results for searches near you.

Can you redesign my current site instead?

Yes, from £900. We keep what works, fix what loses you enquiries, and set up redirects so old links keep working. If a few fixes would do the job, we tell you.

Can the site be in English and Portuguese?

Yes. Each language gets a full set of pages, and a person writes the second one. We do not use translation software.

Tell us what customers should do.

A twenty-minute call about your business and the site you have now. You get a fixed quote, and a straight answer on whether a new site is the right spend.
