Web Development

Websites that carry their weight

Web development is designing and building the website your business runs on: fast to load, clear to read and easy for search engines to understand. Criza builds it for growing businesses that have outgrown a template and need a site that produces enquiries, not just a presence.

What's included

  • Marketing and corporate sites

    Home, services, about, contact and any supporting pages, planned as one funnel rather than disconnected templates.

  • Landing pages that convert

    Focused pages for a campaign or a single offer, with a clear proposition, proof where it genuinely exists, and one obvious action.

  • Responsive development

    Layouts built and checked at phone, tablet and desktop widths — including the awkward middle sizes most builds forget.

  • Performance and technical SEO

    Compressed images, lazily loaded media, sensible fonts, unique metadata, structured data and a sitemap search engines can use.

  • Content you can edit

    A simple editing path for pages, services and articles, so small copy changes do not become an invoice.

  • Forms and follow-up

    Validated contact and enquiry forms that reach a real inbox, with spam protection and a record of every submission.

What you receive

Written scope

  • Design and build for every agreed page
  • Mobile, tablet and desktop layouts
  • Unique metadata, Open Graph tags and sitemap
  • Contact forms with validation and spam protection
  • Analytics and search console readiness
  • Handover documentation and training

Agreed in writing before any work starts.

How long it takes and what it costs

How long does it take?

A focused site of five to eight pages usually takes two to four weeks from approved scope to launch. Content-heavy sites take longer, mostly because of copy and review rounds.

What does it cost?

Fixed quote after a free 30-minute call. The price follows the pages and integrations you need, and is agreed in writing before work starts.

The problems this fixes

  • Traffic without enquiries

    People arrive and leave without acting. Usually the page never answers what the visitor came for, or the next step is buried below a wall of brand copy.

  • Slow on a real phone

    Heavy templates and unoptimised images look fine on a laptop and crawl on mobile data — which is where most first visits now happen.

  • Invisible in search

    No unique titles, no descriptions, broken heading order and a sitemap nobody updated. The site exists but never appears for the things it sells.

How the work runs

Frequently asked questions

How long does a business website take?

A focused site of five to eight pages usually takes two to four weeks from approved scope to launch. Larger content-heavy sites take longer, mostly because of copy and review rounds rather than development.

Do you write the content?

We can. Most projects work best as a partnership: you provide the facts and offering, we shape the structure and turn it into copy written for the page. We will never publish claims we cannot support.

Will I be able to update it myself?

Yes. Pages, services and articles are editable without touching code, and the handover includes a short walkthrough. If you would rather we handle updates, that is a monthly option.

Can you redesign an existing site without losing its rankings?

Usually. We audit current URLs and traffic first, keep the pages that rank, map redirects for anything that moves, and preserve the on-page structure that is already earning traffic.

Have a project in mind?

Tell us what you need. The first 30-minute call is free, and you get a fixed quote and an honest view of whether we are the right fit. We reply within 24 hours, usually sooner.
