Managed website design & build
HM Sites designs, builds, and runs the website your business depends on: custom design, hand-built pages, hosting, and ongoing updates, managed by us and hosted on infrastructure you own.
53%
of visitors abandon a mobile page that takes longer than three seconds to load. Most template sites don't come close.

outdated contact form or broken checkout is often all it takes. Most lost leads trace back to a single page nobody's checked in months.

is what a slow, unranked site shows up as in your books until you check the analytics. That's the problem: the cost is invisible until it isn't.
We design, build, host, and maintain your website end to end, then run it for you.
Every page designed around your brand and the path your customers actually take to act, not a theme you're renting with a logo swapped in.
Pages built by hand for speed and reliability on any device. No page-builder bloat slowing your site down or breaking on the next update.
Copy and structure written for the people searching for you, not just the algorithm; pages built to be found, read, and acted on.
Hosted on infrastructure you own, kept fast, secure, and online. Uptime is our problem to watch, not a ticket you have to file.
Content changes, small fixes, and improvements handled as they come up, with a plain-English monthly summary. No dev queue required.
Tap one block from each row - what you’ve got, what it’s costing you, and what you want instead. Thirty seconds, no wrong answers, and the 15-minute call starts with a brief instead of a blank page.
What you’ve got today…
…what it’s costing you…
…and what you want from us.

That’s plenty for one call - send them over.
That’s the shape. Send it over and we’ll arrive with a plan for exactly this.
That’s fine - most people aren’t.
Working out what the site actually needs is exactly what the free call is for. But even a rough sketch doubles what we can cover in fifteen minutes: pick whichever blocks feel closest and we’ll refine them together on the call. There’s no wrong answer.
A 15-minute call, then we map your goals, your audience, and what your current site is costing you in visitors and leads. You get the findings whether or not you hire us.
We design and build around your brand and how your customers actually search and buy. No theme, no rip-and-replace of the content that already works.
We host it, keep it fast and secure, and handle ongoing updates. When something needs changing, you message us, not a dev queue.
Most agencies ship a site, invoice, and vanish. Six months later it's slow, outdated, or quietly broken and nobody notices until a customer complains. We run what we build. Hosting, updates, and fixes are the service, not an extra.
Your site is deployed on hosting you own, not a locked-in platform we could hold hostage. If we ever part ways, the site and its infrastructure stay yours.
No forked template squeezed onto your brand. We design and build around how your customers actually find and choose you.
Every site is different. We scope it before we price it.
We learn what the site needs to achieve, the content and integrations involved, and the level of ongoing care it needs. Then we send a written proposal with the deliverables, costs, and next steps clear before you decide. No hourly billing or surprise extras.
Book a 15-minute callNo. We build around what's already there where it fits. If you have real gaps, we'll recommend simple options, but replacing your stack is never a requirement.
We host your site, monitor uptime, apply updates, fix anything that breaks, and make ongoing improvements. You never file a ticket with a faceless vendor. You message us.
Most builds complete within 3–6 weeks of kickoff, depending on scope.
Your site was deployed under your own hosting account, so it stays with you. We hand over documentation and access, no hostage-taking.
Yes. We also scope and build web apps and SaaS products - smart search, matching, chat over your own data - and offer plain-English IT consulting on cloud, backups and security when what you need is a straight answer rather than a build. We've been shipping software since the 1980s.
Both. Happy to redesign in place or start fresh, depending on what the audit finds is worth keeping.
The smaller the team, the more a slow or broken site costs, because there's no one to catch it before a customer does. Our entry engagements are scoped for small businesses.
