The problem

When your website costs you the shortlist

In a market as busy as Johannesburg, your website is usually the first thing a potential client checks after a referral or a search. If it looks dated, loads slowly on a phone or doesn't make the next step obvious, they move on to the next name on the list. A website that is clear, fast and easy to act on is one of the simplest ways to stay on the shortlist.

Working with a Cape Town team from Johannesburg

Distance doesn't change how a website project runs. Discovery and design reviews happen over video calls, you comment directly on the designs in Figma, and the site is built on a staging link you can check on your own devices. You deal with the same small team from the first call to launch, and you can reach us on WhatsApp or email in between.

Johannesburg website design FAQs

Do you have an office in Johannesburg?
No. We're based in Cape Town and work with Johannesburg businesses remotely. Website projects run over video calls and Figma, so where our office is doesn't change the result.
How much does a website cost in Johannesburg?
It depends on the number of unique page designs, whether you need ecommerce or integrations, and who writes the copy. We scope it with you first, and your proposal gives you an exact figure before any work starts.
Can you redesign our website without losing Google rankings?
Yes, if it's planned properly. We map your existing pages and set up redirects so visitors and search engines land in the right place.
Can you help our website rank in Johannesburg?
Every site launches with the SEO basics in place. For ongoing rankings, our Johannesburg SEO service covers local search for Sandton and the other areas you serve.
Will we be able to update the website ourselves?
Yes. We build sites so your team can edit text, images and blog posts, and we walk you through it at handover.
Do you work outside Gauteng?
Yes. We're based in Cape Town and work with businesses across South Africa and internationally.
