The DDCo. Standard

Your Website Should Do the Selling Before You Walk into the Room

Established firms lose prospective clients when their digital experience feels slow, confusing, or outdated. We build websites that establish authority in seconds.

  1. Copy & Design as One

    We write the words and plan the page layouts simultaneously, ensuring typography and design serve the commercial argument.

  2. Blazing Edge Speed

    Static rendering and global CDN edge routing make pages load fast, which helps both visitors and search performance.

  3. Buyer-Led Hierarchy

    Pages address what executive prospects need to evaluate (proof, process, fees, and outcomes) in the exact order they look for it.

  4. Zero Tech Lock-In

    You receive clean code and an intuitive CMS your internal team can manage autonomously without costly retainer hand-holding.

Questions

Common Questions About Web Design

How much does a custom website design and build cost?

Our custom website projects start at $16,000 USD and are quoted according to scope. This includes complete sitemap planning, custom copywriting for every page, bespoke responsive visual design, headless/static CMS development, and technical on-page SEO foundations. Larger sites with extensive case studies, resource libraries, or complex custom integrations are scoped proportionally.

Do we need to rebrand before commissioning a new website?

Not always. If your current market positioning, messaging, and visual identity are working effectively, we can translate your existing brand into a modern, high-performing digital architecture. However, if your firm has outgrown its brand or cannot clearly articulate why you win against regional competitors, we will advise conducting a brand strategy or identity engagement first so your website investment solves the real commercial problem.

What technology stack do you build on, and why?

We build primarily on modern static and headless architectures using Astro.js, Vercel and Cloudflare. Unlike traditional legacy WordPress setups, static edge builds eliminate database security vulnerabilities, avoid plugin conflicts, and load virtually instantaneously. For content updates, we connect an intuitive headless CMS that lets your internal team edit copy, publish insights, and add portfolio items with ease.

Do you write all the website copy, or do we have to supply it?

We include strategic website copywriting as a standard core deliverable. We do not rely on placeholder "Lorem Ipsum" or expect your executive team to write marketing copy from scratch. Co-founder Stuart Crawford leads messaging and copywriting, interviewing your leadership team to author clear, persuasive on-page copy that positions your firm as the obvious authority.

How long does a website project take from kickoff to launch?

A typical custom web design and development engagement takes 8 to 14 weeks. This timeline allows for thorough discovery, sitemap structuring, copywriting, iterative design reviews, clean development, technical SEO auditing, and team editor training prior to launch.

How do you ensure our existing Google search rankings are protected?

For redesigns, we conduct a comprehensive pre-launch SEO audit. We inventory all indexed URLs, map 1-to-1 301 redirects, maintain URL equity, and upgrade on-page structured data with valid Schema.org JSON-LD markup. Paired with strong Core Web Vitals performance, our rebuilds are designed to protect your search visibility. No one can guarantee rankings or AI citations, but a careful migration avoids the common losses.
