Professional websites and full redesigns for businesses in Johannesburg, Durban, Pretoria and beyond. Planned with you, designed in Figma and built by our own developers.

Digital Fold is a web design company working with businesses across South Africa. Our web designers create new business websites and redesign existing ones on WordPress, Shopify, Webflow or custom code. You don't need to be in Cape Town to work with us: projects run just as well over video calls and design reviews in Figma.

The problem

Signs it's time for a website redesign

  • Your site looks older than your business, and visitors notice.
  • It's hard to update, so content goes stale.
  • Enquiries have dropped, or ad traffic isn't converting.
  • It's slow, especially on mobile.
  • Your services have changed and the site no longer explains what you do.

If two or more of those sound familiar, it's usually worth fixing the site before spending more on marketing that sends people to it.

How we approach a redesign

We start with what your current site already does well. We check your analytics to see which pages bring in traffic and enquiries, list every URL that ranks in Google, and ask what customers most often want to know. That becomes the sitemap for the new site. Designs are then built page by page in Figma, so you can comment directly on them. When the new site goes live, every old URL redirects to its new home, so visitors and search engines never hit dead ends.

How it works

From brief to launch

  1. 01

    Brief and audit

    We learn what the site needs to do and review your current site, analytics and rankings.

  2. 02

    Sitemap and content plan

    We agree every page and who writes or supplies the content.

  3. 03

    Figma designs

    You review and comment on the designs until they're signed off.

  4. 04

    Development on staging

    We build on a private link so you can click through the real site before launch.

  5. 05

    Launch with redirects

    We go live, redirect old URLs and monitor for issues in the first weeks.

FAQs

Web design company FAQs

What should we look for in a web design company?
Look at their recent work, ask who will actually design and build your site, and check what happens after launch. A good web design company asks about your customers and goals before it talks about colours.
Do you work with businesses outside Cape Town?
Yes. We work with clients in Johannesburg, Pretoria, Durban, across South Africa and internationally. Projects run over video calls and Figma reviews, so website design in South Africa works just as well from Cape Town.
When is a website redesign worth it?
When your site no longer reflects your business, is hard to update, or isn't converting the traffic you already get. Sometimes a few targeted fixes are enough, and we'll tell you if that's the case.
Will a redesign affect our SEO?
It can if it's handled badly. We keep your ranking pages, map every old URL to a new one and set up redirects before launch, which protects the visibility you've already built.
Can you write the website content?
Yes. Copywriting is available as an add-on, written for both your customers and search engines.
Can we keep our current hosting?
Often, if it's fast and secure enough. If not, we'll recommend an alternative and handle the move.
