Bespoke or template?
A template can be the right start for a very small site. Most London businesses that compete online need a bespoke design.
| Factor | Bespoke design | Template |
|---|---|---|
| Look and feel | Designed for your brand and buyers | Shared with many other sites |
| Content | Pages planned around your services and proof | Your content fitted into a fixed layout |
| Speed | Only the code your site needs | Often carries unused features and scripts |
| Accessibility | Designed and tested to WCAG 2.2 AA | Varies by template; often needs fixes |
| Best for | Businesses that compete on their website | Very small sites on a tight timeline |
We tell you honestly when a template-based site is enough.

A web design company London teams can reach
Plenty of agencies call themselves London-based without an address you can visit. We say it plainly: a client partner at our London center runs your project on UK hours, and design and development happen at our New Delhi headquarters, whose core hours overlap your morning and early afternoon. Reviews run by video, and in-person meetings in London are arranged if agreed in your scope.
Working with a London team
A client partner at our London center runs your account on UK time. Your site is designed and built at our New Delhi headquarters, 4.5 to 5.5 hours ahead. Our core hours, 10:00 to 19:00 IST, cover your morning and early afternoon: about 4.5 hours of shared working time in winter and 5.5 hours in summer.
One person owns your account from the London center: scope, priorities, reviews and sign-off. You never chase a ticket queue.
Kick-offs, design reviews and demos are booked in your morning or early afternoon, by video. Written updates follow every call.
Design, development and QA happen at our New Delhi headquarters, the team behind 1,000+ projects since 2015.
Sessions run remotely by default. If your project needs an in-person workshop in London, we agree it in the scope first.
Live: today’s working days in London and New Delhi, adjusted for British Summer Time automatically.

| Support after launch | Training, updates and improvements agreed in your scope |
