Empowering local businesses
Websites for Preston businesses that are ready to grow.
Why it matters
Preston is at the heart of Lancashire, home to everything from family firms to national names. Whatever the size of the business, customers here search before they buy, and they judge a company by its website before they ever make contact.
A slow, dated or confusing website sends them straight to a competitor.
What we do
We're a full-service digital agency based in St Helens, under an hour down the M6. We design, build and look after websites, with branding, SEO and marketing in-house when you need them.
We already work with Preston businesses, from stone worktops on Strand Road to woodworking machinery in Longridge, so the area isn't new to us.
Why websites matter
A website that sells before you pick up the phone.
Whether your customers are in Preston itself or anywhere across Lancashire, most of them will find you online first. If your website is slow, dated or hard to use on a phone, they'll move on to the next result.
A well-designed website builds trust quickly. It shows what you do, proves you're good at it and makes getting in touch easy.
That's what we build: websites that look the part and bring in enquiries.

What to expect
The web design process.
Website design involves planning, designing, developing, and launching stages. While these steps seem simple, the process is detailed. Our skilled team ensures a smooth journey and welcomes client feedback at all stages to create your desired website.
View projects01. Planning & Discovery
Once you've got in touch with us, we'll do some of our own research on your business and the overall brand, history and "feel". We'll get together for a meeting with you so that you can give us some additional information, as well as let us know what you need from a new website.
02. Design
After the initial meeting, we'll lay out a plan for your website and start to put together a design. We'll base our designs on your business's branding and keep you in the loop the whole time. All of our designs are built for user experience, speed and conversion rate. We'll provide you with a couple of designs so that you can pick your favourite.
03. Development
Design ready, website plan ready - time to get to work. From building the structure of your pages to developing SEO-friendly content, each step is carefully constructed to bring more customers to your Preston business. We'll keep you in the loop the whole time, getting feedback and your thoughts and making necessary changes.
04. Testing
Our expert development team will handle the technical side, including any additional functions or features you want on your site. The team will also keep your website optimised for loading speed, ensuring that every page, image and piece of content loads lightning-fast.
05. Launch
Once we've built a website that you love, we'll get everything ready for launch. We'll perform extensive checks and tests to ensure that everything works correctly - ready for your audience to see.
Website redesign
Website redesign for Preston businesses.
Most businesses we speak to already have a website. The question is whether it's still doing its job.
A redesign can make a big difference to the enquiries a website brings in. We don't just change a few colours and swap the images. We look at what's working, find where visitors drop off and rebuild the website around your brand and your goals.
And because a lot of Preston business owners are far too busy to keep a website up to date, we can look after it for you once it's live.
Why Sood?
Close enough to meet, set up to work your way.
Preston is an easy drive from our studio in St Helens, so if you'd rather talk things through in person, we can do that. If video calls suit you better, that works too.
Either way, you get one team for design, development, SEO and marketing, and ongoing support once your website is live.
