Web Design Farnham Agency.

Officially the “Nicest Town in Surrey” (according to The Times), Farnham is picture perfect with attractively preserved Georgian townhouses, half-timbered and Queen Anne cottages, the remains of a 12th-century castle, and bow-fronted shops to delight the eye. But the beauty of Farnham is more than just skin deep. With a range of Ofsted-rated “good” and “excellent” schools, excellent transport links, and access to unspoilt countryside in minutes, Farnham has become popular with London and north Surrey commuters.

Surrounded by stunning countryside (much of which is owned by the National Trust), Farnham is the perfect spot for people who love walking and riding. Outdoor pursuits are abundant in Farnham, with golf clubs, a cricket club and 320 acres of park to enjoy (Farnham Park provides stunning views of the local area). Alice Holt Forest is also nearby with a visitor centre, an activity centre, Go Ape, trails, and much more. And the town is home to Birdworld, a 26-acre attraction with over 180 species from around the world.

People who prefer a slightly busier pace of life won’t be disappointed in Farnham either. A place of contrasts, Farnham offers a lively town centre with many shops, galleries, restaurants, cafes, and pubs (independent and chain) to enjoy. There are also plenty of markets, festivals, and literary events in this creative town. In addition, the Farnham Maltings community arts venue attracts local, national, and international visitors.

Well-connected in terms of transport links, half-hourly trains to Waterloo will get you to London in around an hour. Farnham is also within easy reach of the M3 and M25, and is just 45-60 minutes from Heathrow or Gatwick. So, the affluent town of Farnham has a lot to offer when it comes to doing business. Farnham is also a great place to live. In early 2022, Rightmove named Farnham one of the UK’s ten property hotspots after a 22% increase in house prices.

Big names such as Sainsbury’s, Homebase, Waitrose, David Lloyd gym, Southco and Kinetrol operate in the town, alongside a healthy mix of independent retailers. And, if your Farnham business needs a better online presence, MagnifyLab can help.

Costs for website design Farnham services

No matter the size of your business, or the sector you operate in, a high-performing website is essential. But, with different Farnham web design agencies offering very different price points, how much should you budget for your business website?

Unfortunately, there is no set answer to this question. You can probably get up and running for very little if you want a cheap web design Farnham that uses an off-the-shelf template. But this could be a false economy. Today, most businesses rely on their online presence to generate sales (and the pandemic accelerated this), but standing out can be tricky with so much competition. So it has never been more important to invest in your online presence. A cheap, templated website simply won’t cut it. While a low up-front cost might tempt you, you could end up paying the price if your new site doesn’t deliver for your business.

At MagnifyLab, we might not be the cheapest web developers in Farnham, but when you work with us, we won’t give you a site that looks like everyone else’s. Instead, we’ll create an original, fully responsive website that delivers a return on your investment. With prices starting from just £2,500, contact our team for a custom quotation.

How long does it take to build a website?

How long it will take to complete your Farnham website will depend on your specific requirements. Things we will consider before quoting include:

• Whether you need a new site or a refresh of an existing one
• Whether you already have the content and an agreed sitemap for the website
• How many pages and page styles your website needs
• What functionality your site requires (e.g. e-commerce)
• Whether you need your site maximised for SEO (highly recommended)
• What platform your site will use (e.g. WordPress, Shopify, Drupal, etc.)
• And more!

Our Farnham websites are fully bespoke, so it can take us a little longer to complete than it might do other companies who use cheap templates. As a rough guide, smaller websites can be up and running in as little as 4-6 weeks, while larger, more complex sites could take 3-4 months. But the result will be worth waiting for.

What type of Farnham companies can you help?

At MagnifyLab, we combine all our creative and coding flare to create websites for a vast range of different businesses and sectors. This includes those operating in B2C and B2B spaces. Over the years, we have built sites for property businesses, technology companies, law firms and legal organisations, furniture stores, and more! You can find out more about some of the industries our web design agency has supported here.

Here to support businesses across Farnham, we can also create unique websites for the sectors that are so important to the area. For example, retail (we have a wealth of e-commerce experience), legal, home improvement, education, manufacturing, and technology. And because you need to stand out in an overcrowded online world, whatever your business, your Farnham website will be tailor-made for you.

Do you redesign existing websites?

Yes, as well as creating bespoke websites from scratch, we can also help Farnham businesses to reimagine their current sites. We can help with:

• Brand and design changes (e.g. images, colours, page layout changes, etc.)
• Platform transitions (e.g. moving a proprietary website to a more accessible CMS such as WordPress)
• Taking an unresponsive website and making it responsive so that it will work on mobile devices
• Adding additional functionality to your existing website
• Improving the SEO performance of your current site.

Making sure we never waste your time, budget, or resources, our web design Farnham team will listen to what you need and advise you on the most commercially savvy solution to get it done. And, if we think that a “quick change” will be more expensive and time-consuming than creating something new, we’ll let you know and talk you through your options. We make your bottom line and business requirements our priority.

Will my new website design Farnham work on mobile and tablets?

Yes! We build all websites to the latest and best web design standards. This means they will properly reflow on different devices, so your responsive website will look pixel perfect on desktops, smartphones, and tablets.

Responsive design – also known as RWD – doesn’t just provide a better user experience for your website. It also offers tangible benefits. For example:

• Google prioritises mobile-friendly websites. So RWD is essential to any successful SEO strategy
• Most people now search for websites online. If your site is not visually appealing, isn’t’ user-friendly, or won’t load quickly on mobile devices, these potential customers won’t hang around
• If a potential customer can’t complete a purchase or sign-up on a site that is not mobile-friendly, you won’t just lose a transaction, they will also take their business elsewhere.

At MagnifyLab, we build all our websites to be responsive from the ground up. And while there is no simple switch to change an unresponsive website to a responsive one, we can help Farnham businesses with an existing, unresponsive site to re-platform or redesign to make a site mobile friendly.

Do you offer a payment schedule for Farnham websites?

Yes, to help you manage your bottom line, our website design Farnham starts with a 50% deposit, and we take the remaining 50% once the website is ready to launch. Our payment schedule helps with your cash flow and gives you the confidence that we will deliver when we say we will. Once we’ve discussed your requirements, we will provide a timeframe for when payment will likely be due.

Do you provide website maintenance and support?

Yes, we do. As well as creating a fantastic website for your business, we want to ensure that it keeps delivering for years to come. That’s why we offer ongoing website support and maintenance services for our Farnham clients.

You can look after the site updates yourself if you’d prefer. But be wary of any web design Farnham agency that claims a site won’t need support after it has gone live. Regular plugin updates, security checks, backups and SEO changes are necessary to ensure your site remains fast, secure, and effective.

Can you rank my Farnham website on Google?

Absolutely! We offer first-class SEO services for businesses in and around Farnham. And we can help to ensure that your new website increases its search position and delivers maximum ROI. Helping to generate organic traffic, leads and sales, our bespoke SEO strategies are designed around your business and will help you stay ahead of the competition.

At MagnifyLab, we passionately believe that SEO goes hand-in-hand with web design when creating an online presence. So, we offer a creative SEO strategy to ensure your website gains the trust needed to climb up the organic ladder. How we do this depends on your business, but it will involve content creation, on-page optimisation, and intelligent link building. We won’t use outdated and ill-informed ‘black hat’ techniques like keyword stuffing and inappropriate mass link building.
