Website Design & E-commerce

High-Performance Websites for Cornwall & Devon Businesses

Your website is often the first impression a customer has of your brand. Does yours reflect the quality of your work? At Sixpounder, we build more than just “pretty” websites—we build high-performing business tools designed to turn visitors into loyal customers.

From simple “brochure” sites for startups to complex e-commerce platforms, we build digital storefronts that are fast, secure, and easy for you to manage.

The Right Platform for Your Goals

We don’t believe in a “one size fits all” approach. We work with the world’s leading platforms to ensure your site fits your budget and your technical needs.

WordPress

Best for: Scalability, SEO, and Custom Features. If you want total control and a site that can grow with your business indefinitely, WordPress is the gold standard. Perfect for content-heavy sites and businesses looking for long-term SEO dominance.

Wix & Squarespace

Best for: Startups, Creatives, and Ease of Use. Ideal for small businesses that need a stunning visual presence quickly. These platforms are incredibly user-friendly, allowing you to make minor updates yourself without needing a developer on speed-dial.

E-Commerce & Online Stores

Best for: Selling Products or Services Online. Ready to take your shop global? We build robust e-commerce solutions (via Shopify, WooCommerce, or Wix Stores) that handle everything from inventory management and secure payments to shipping calculations.

What’s Included in Every Build?

Mobile-First Design

Over 60% of web traffic is on mobile. Depending on your business this figure could be even higher. Your site will look flawless on every screen size.

Search Engine Ready

We build websites with foundational SEO, your site will perform and rank well from day one!

Lightning Fast Speeds

No one waits for a slow site. All of our sites are built to be as quick and responsive as possible. 

Secure & Reliable:

From SSL certificates to secure payment gateways, your data (and your customers’) is safe with us.

Hands-on Training

Once the site is live, we’ll show you exactly how to use it. No more being “locked out” of your own website. However if you want us to manage your site we also cater for this.

How it Works: Our 3-Step Process

  • The Strategy Session: We sit down (in person or via Zoom) to discuss your goals, your style, and what you need the site to do.

  • The Build: We create a draft of your site, incorporating your branding and feedback until it’s perfect.

  • The Launch: We go live! We handle the technical “handover,” ensuring your domain and hosting are set up correctly.

Web Design: Frequently Asked Questions

1. Will I actually own my website?

Yes, 100%. Unlike some agencies that “lease” websites to you, once your final invoice is paid, the site is yours. We set everything up in your name, and you have full administrative access. If you ever decide to move on, you take your digital assets with you.

2. Can I update the website myself once it’s live?

Absolutely. We specialize in “user-friendly” builds. Whether we use WordPress, Wix, or Squarespace, we can provide a 1-1 training session to help you understand how to update your website or add products.

3. How long does it take to build a website?

Every project is unique, but as a general rule:

  • The Launchpad (Wix/Squarespace): 1–2 weeks.

  • The Professional (WordPress): 3–4 weeks.

  • The Storefront (E-Commerce): 4–6 weeks. The biggest factor in speed is how quickly you can provide your text and images!

4. Is my website “SEO-friendly” from day one?

Yes. We don’t just build a pretty site; we build a searchable one. We handle the foundational technical SEO—including meta titles, image alt-text, mobile optimization, and site speed—to ensure Google can crawl and rank your new site immediately.

5. Do I have to pay a monthly fee?

You will always have your own costs for Hosting and your Domain Name (usually paid annually to the platform like Wix or a hosting provider). Outside of that, we offer optional Maintenance Packages if you’d like us to handle security updates and backups for you, but there are no “hidden” monthly fees from Sixpounder just to keep your site online.

6. I’m a startup on a budget—can you help?

Definitely. That is exactly why we offer Wix and Squarespace options. These platforms allow us to build high-quality, professional sites at a lower price point than a fully custom WordPress build, making them perfect for new businesses in Cornwall and Devon.

7. What if I already have a website but it is outdated ?

We love a “Digital Makeover.” We can take your existing content and migrate it to a modern, faster platform, giving your brand a fresh look while keeping your established SEO rankings intact.
