Website & web design in Bray

Q: How long does a site take?

Typically [4–8] weeks from kickoff. The variable is almost never design or code. It is how quickly the copy, photography and legal sign-off arrive.

Bray sits at the point where Dublin stops and Wicklow starts, and businesses here usually need to be found in both. Tourism along the seafront, film and production around Ardmore, and a steady base of professional services make up the bulk of our work.

A site that feels expensive is not a template with better photography. It is type that holds from a phone to a 27-inch monitor, motion that answers what you do rather than decorating the page, and a first screen that arrives before anyone decides to leave. We build the whole thing — design system, interaction layer and CMS — so it still feels that way on the fiftieth page your team adds.

What we build

Marketing sites

Ten to forty pages where every one earns its place. A type scale that holds at any width, images art-directed rather than cropped, and scroll behaviour that reveals the argument instead of decorating it. Built to arrive in under two seconds on a mid-range phone — a slow premium site is just a slow site.

Ecommerce

Shopify or a custom build, depending on how strange your catalogue is. Product pages that behave like a showroom: real photography, considered hover and detail states, a variant picker that responds instantly, and a checkout that does not lose people on step three.

Design systems and motion

The part that decides whether it still feels premium in two years. Real components with documented states, an interaction layer with rules about what moves and why, and a CMS your team can use without calling us — with guardrails so a new landing page cannot quietly break the type scale.

ON SCREEN

Six effects, running on nothing but the scroll

Scroll the page and each one plays for real — these are not videos. No animation library, nothing extra to download, and every word still sits in the HTML for a crawler to read.

Burn awayThe panel dissolves from the bottom as it leaves, ember line riding the edge.

Clip revealA slab wipes back off the line underneath, timed to where the block sits on screen.

Parallax depthThree layers at three speeds — the cheapest way to give a flat page a sense of depth.

Scroll driftA strip that travels sideways while the page travels down. Good for logos and long lists.

Tilt throughA card turning through three dimensions as it crosses, with one light sweeping over it.

Line staggerHeadline lines climb into place one behind the other, each clipped to its own row.

YOUR TURN

Are you looking to showcase your business to the world?

Most of the people we build for are not tech companies. They are a practice, a brand, a kitchen — with something genuinely worth looking at and nowhere good to put it. A site is where that becomes public, and where it starts taking bookings, orders and payments instead of only describing them.

Live in weeks, not quarters

A first version real customers can use inside a month, then the rest in slices you can watch land on a staging URL.

Selling while you sleep

Orders, bookings and deposits taken on the page — card, Apple Pay and Google Pay, with the money landing in your own account.

Yours to run afterwards

A CMS your team edits without calling us, on hosting in your name, with the repository handed over at the end.

Building it is one job. Being found is another.

A site can look right, load fast and still sit there quietly, because none of that decides whether anybody arrives on it. Getting found is separate work: the words on your pages, what the rest of the internet says about you, and whether a search engine can read the thing at all. Most sites with no traffic are not badly built — they are simply not answering anything anyone is searching for. If yours is quieter than you expected, it is worth knowing which of those it is before you spend money changing anything.

Our free check reads your site the way a search engine would and tells you, in plain English, what is working, what is not, and what to fix first. It takes under a minute and there is no email to hand over.

Questions Bray clients ask

Should we be targeting Dublin as well as Wicklow?

Usually yes — south Dublin is a fifteen-minute drive and a large share of Bray businesses draw from it. It needs to be a deliberate second target rather than an afterthought in the same page.

We are a seasonal tourism business. What does a sensible year look like?

Build and fix in the off-season, spend in the run-up, and keep a small always-on budget so you are not starting cold each spring. Flat monthly spend is the most common mistake we see here.

Do you work with production and creative companies?

Yes. Those briefs are usually less about lead generation and more about presenting work properly — which means the site has to be fast while carrying a lot of video.

Will we be able to edit it ourselves?

Yes, and that is a build requirement rather than an afterthought. Your team gets a walkthrough and a short written guide covering the things you will actually change — copy, images, new pages, new case studies.

How long does a site take?

Typically 4–8 weeks from kickoff. The variable is almost never design or code. It is how quickly the copy, photography and legal sign-off arrive.

Can you redesign what we already have?

Often the better move is keeping the URLs and the pages that already rank, and rebuilding around them. We audit what is earning traffic first, then decide what is worth preserving.
