Twelve reasons clients give for choosing us.
Every agency claims to be different. Below is what that looks like in practice when you work with us, and further down, six things worth checking if you are talking to somebody else too.
Agreed before we start, never a surprise later.
The same relationship from first call to sign-off.
A UK team, with clients from Hampshire to Australia.
Average across 28 Google reviews.
What clients say made the difference.
Not a list of values on a wall. These are the specific things clients mention when they tell us why they chose Web X over somebody else.
Domain, hosting, email, security and the site itself, all handled in one place.
We work with businesses our own size, so we understand the pressures on your budget and your time.
Agreed before we start. No hidden fees, and no charge you did not see coming.
Pay in one sum at a discount, or spread it over twelve months instead.
If you are not happy with the result, you do not pay for it. We just cannot publish it.
Every site is built and tested on mobile, tablet and desktop before it goes live.
Cookie consent and a privacy policy built in from day one, not bolted on later.
No jargon, and no assumption that you already know ours.
The same relationship from first call through to sign-off, and after.
We left other careers to do this full-time, and it shows in the work.
Alignment, responsiveness and the finishing touches, not shortcuts.
Hampshire based, and happy to meet in person if that helps.
“Very happy with end result and much prefer working with another small business such as ourselves!”
Six things worth checking first.
Get other quotes, genuinely. These are the questions we would want answered if we were choosing an agency ourselves.
Can you see their previous work? A real portfolio and honest reviews tell you more than any pitch. Ours are on show, and every review is five stars.
Do you know who you would be working with? We are based in Hampshire and work with clients across the UK and overseas, and our About page tells you exactly who you will deal with.
Have you checked their site on your phone? Over half of your visitors will arrive on mobile. Every site we build is tested on phone, tablet and desktop before it launches.
Do they mention cookies and privacy at all? A site legally needs a cookie policy, a privacy policy, and a way to opt out of non-essential cookies. If an agency's own site skips this, treat it as a warning sign.
Is there any pricing on their website at all? We list our Web Starter packages with real prices because we believe in being upfront. Plenty of agencies make you ask just to find a number.
What happens if something goes wrong? Backups stored in the same place as your site do not help in a real disaster. We keep ours somewhere else entirely, and can get you back online quickly.
I would not hesitate to recommend Darren and Web X Design Studio to anyone. A true platinum level and personal service, and a top quality, high performing website which works beautifully across all devices. A very happy client indeed.
A little more, if you want it.
Three more pages that go into more detail than fits here.
The studio & the team
Twenty-five years in IT, the small team behind the studio, and the network that backs it up.
Our values
The three things, personal, passionate and properly finished, that we hold every project to.
Giving back
A limited number of free website builds each year for charities and non-profit causes.
Let's see if we're a fit.
A free, no obligation call. If a website is not what your business needs right now, we will tell you that too.
