A website your Ilkley business deserves

I'm Gabe, a web developer based in Yorkshire. I build custom websites for small businesses in and around Ilkley — the kind that look great, load fast, and actually bring in customers rather than just sitting there.

Ilkley is full of brilliant independent businesses — on The Grove, along Brook Street, and across Wharfedale. What a lot of them have in common is a website that doesn't do them justice. If that sounds familiar, that's exactly the problem I fix.

Every site I build is custom designed around your business — no templates, no page builders, nothing off the shelf. And when it's done, you'll be able to manage your own content without needing to pick up the phone every time something needs changing.

What you actually get

A lot of small businesses have been burned by a cheap website that looked fine at first and quietly caused problems for years. Here's what I do differently:

  • Designed around your business — not a template with your logo dropped in. Something that actually reflects what you do and who you do it for.
  • Fast by default — slow websites lose customers. Every site I build is optimised so pages load quickly on any device.
  • Built so search engines can read it — clean, well-structured code gives your site the best possible technical foundation in search.
  • Yours to manage — every site comes with a full CMS so you can update your content, images and pages yourself.
  • Supported after launch — I don't disappear once the site goes live. Ongoing help is always available.

Local, and easy to work with

I'm based in Yorkshire and familiar with Ilkley and the surrounding area. If you'd prefer to sit down over a coffee and talk through what you need before committing to anything, I'm happy to do that.

Most projects run just as smoothly over email and calls — whatever works best for you.
