Website design for Chichester businesses, from the Cross to the harbour
From independent shops on the four streets that meet at the Market Cross to boatyards round the harbour and workshops on Terminus Road, we build fast, hand-coded websites that help Chichester businesses get found and win enquiries.
Websites shaped around how Chichester works
Chichester packs a lot into a small city. North, South, East and West Streets still radiate from the medieval Market Cross, the 12th-century cathedral brings in visitors, and the Festival Theatre in Oaklands Park runs a season that usually lasts from April to October. Then there are Goodwood's big events just north-east of the city, when the Festival of Speed, the Revival and Glorious Goodwood bring crowds looking for somewhere to eat, stay and shop. Your website needs to be ready for those people before they arrive.
For a café on South Street or a gift shop by the Cross, that means a site that loads quickly on a visitor's phone and shows opening times, menus or prices without any hunting. For a boatyard or a trade firm, it means clear services and a quick way to get in touch. We hand-code every site rather than using a bloated page builder, give you a fixed written quote before work starts, and you deal directly with the developer. You own the domain, content and code.
We are based in Sussex and happy to meet in person in Chichester or nearby, whether at your shop, your boatyard office or your unit on Terminus Road. For a feel of our work, look at Pearl & Paper, a stationery studio in Horsham, West Sussex: an online shop with card, Apple Pay and Google Pay checkout, a private admin hub and a catalogue connected to Google.
Who we build for
Who we build websites for in Chichester
Independent city centre shops
Retail is one of the district's biggest employers. A shop on North or East Street needs opening hours, stock and directions that work on a visitor's phone.
Hotels, B&Bs and restaurants
Goodwood events and the theatre season bring visitors who need somewhere to stay and eat. Clear room details, menus and direct booking let you take those bookings yourself.
Marine and harbour businesses
Boatyards and marinas around Chichester Harbour, from Bosham to Itchenor, serve boat owners who often look online first. Clear services, prices and enquiry forms turn those searches into calls.
Growers and horticulture
Horticulture is well established in the south of the district, with development areas at Tangmere, Runcton, Sidlesham and Almodington. A trade site showing your ranges helps buyers find you.
Trades and workshops
Firms on the Terminus Road estate or at Glenmore Business Park near the A27 often win work from local searches. Clear services, areas covered and click-to-call help with that.
Start-ups and small studios
Just taken a small unit on Terminus Road? A starter website from £695 gives you a fast, proper online presence now, with room to grow later.
Local SEO
Getting found on Google in Chichester
Plenty of local searches pair a service with a place, such as 'plumber Chichester' or 'lunch near Chichester Cathedral'. We set up your Google Business Profile properly, write page titles that name Chichester and the areas you cover, and add structured data so Google understands where you are. If you also serve Fishbourne, Lavant or Selsey, we give those places a clear mention on your site rather than leaving Google to guess.
Plenty of searches here also happen on a phone on the day: a theatre-goer looking for dinner before a show at Oaklands Park, or a Goodwood crowd hunting for breakfast. Accurate hours on Google, a fast mobile site and a map pin on the right door make a real difference. We also connect your site to Search Console so you can see what people actually searched for.
