Our Services
Web Design & Development
At Newstead Web Designs, we specialise in creating custom, hand-coded websites that combine clean design with reliable performance. Each site is built from the ground up to reflect your brand, engage your audience, and support your business goals.
We focus on creating custom, informational websites — ideal for service-based businesses, professionals, and creatives. All our websites are built with accessibility in mind, following best practices outlined in the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). This ensures your site is usable by everyone, including people using screen readers, keyboard navigation, or other assistive technologies.
- Fully responsive, mobile-friendly design
- SEO-optimised and fast-loading
- Secure and scalable, built to grow with your business
Hand-Coded Websites for Performance & Flexibility
Many websites are built using templates or page builders. At Newstead Web Designs, we hand-code every website to ensure:
- Speed: Lean, efficient code for faster load times and smoother navigation.
- Security: Fewer third-party tools reduce vulnerabilities.
- Flexibility: Easily adapt and scale as your business grows.
- Easy Maintenance: Clean code makes updates and improvements simple.
- Accessibility: Our hand-coded sites are WCAG-compliant, ensuring they are usable by all visitors, including those using assistive technologies.
By writing clean HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, we remove unnecessary bulk and plugins that often slow down websites. The result is a lightweight, reliable site built to last, usable by everyone regardless of device or ability.
