Build

Platform rebuild

A rebuild of a large or slow site, in stages, without a freeze on publishing and without losing search traffic.

Included

  • Discovery and requirementsInterviews with the people who use and edit the site, a review of analytics, and a written list of what the site must do.
  • Content modellingEvery page type, field and relation written down before design starts, so editors get forms that match their content.
  • Technical auditA review of the code, hosting, dependencies and data, with each problem ranked by risk and cost to fix.
  • Design system in codeType, colour, spacing and components built once as code and documented, so new pages stay consistent.

  • Speed and Core Web VitalsPages measured on a mid-range phone and brought under 2.5 seconds for the largest content, with no layout shift.
  • Accessibility to WCAG 2.2 AAKeyboard, screen reader and contrast checks on every template, with fixes made and a written conformance report.
  • Technical search optimizationClean URLs, titles, structured data, sitemaps and redirects, checked in the search engines' own consoles.
  • Privacy-friendly analyticsPage views and key events measured without tracking cookies, with a monthly one-page report.
  • Hosting and deploysHosting set up on your account, with preview links for every change and one-command rollback.
  • Uptime and error monitoringChecks every minute from three regions, error reports from the browser and server, and alerts to a named person.

For sites with thousands of pages, several editors and connections to other systems. We rebuild one section at a time behind the same domain, so editors keep publishing and every release is small enough to roll back.

Checkout, booking and stock connections are rebuilt against the same APIs and tested with real orders in a staging copy before each section goes live.

The deposit books the team for the first four weeks. The rest is billed monthly against the agreed plan.
