Websites

High performance websites built to scale and cut carbon

Website development is where strategy, creativity, and technical precision come together. We build fast, low-carbon, SEO-optimised websites that meet today’s needs and evolve with your business.

Slow websites cost more than you think

Too many businesses are held back by slow websites, clunky CMS platforms, and growing technical debt. The impact is clear:

Slow loading times that frustrate users.
Lost revenue from weaker conversion.
Hours wasted maintaining fragile systems.
Higher energy use and unnecessary emissions.

Every oversized image and bloated line of code slows your site, impacts search visibility, and increases your digital footprint.

We build lean, high-performing platforms using sustainable development principles, so you can scale your growth without scaling your emissions.

Testimonials

What our clients say

As part of my work, I really value their sustainability-focused hosting, low data usage and carbon neutrality of web designers. When the opportunity came up to finally use madeby.studio to develop a project website that was focused on decarbonisation, my choice was very clear. They not only understood our vision but elevated it with their technical expertise, creativity, and attention to detail. The end result was a sleek, responsive, and high-performing website that exceeded our expectations – and has all the sustainability credentials.

We’re really pleased with how the website turned out, it reflects who we are and where we’re going as a business. The creative work was clean, clear and met the brief, and the focus on sustainability aligned with our mission as a business. Communication throughout was spot on, and the early workshops helped get everyone aligned. It’s already proving to be a valuable tool for the business. We see this as the start of a strong ongoing partnership.

Sam, Matt and the team did an excellent job in providing us with regular contact throughout our project - and were always honest, up-front and regularly keeping us in the loop of any developments in the migration of our website. They also went above and beyond to put into place best business practices for our website. Couldn't recommend them enough!

FAQs

Website development FAQs

What makes a website sustainable?

A sustainable (low-carbon) website uses efficient code, optimized assets, and green hosting to minimize energy consumption. By removing "bloat" and unnecessary plugins, we create sites that load faster and produce significantly lower digital emissions.

How does website speed affect SEO and conversions?

Speed is a critical ranking factor; Google rewards fast sites with better visibility. Faster loading times also reduce bounce rates and friction, directly increasing your conversion rates while lowering hosting costs and energy use.

Which CMS platforms do you work with?

We often recommend Statamic as a content management system because it is lightweight, secure, and built for speed. Unlike more bloated CMS platforms, Statamic avoids unnecessary complexity, which means faster load times, lower maintenance, and better long-term scalability.

However, we don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach. For some businesses, we work with other CMS solutions, such as Wordpress and Craft, depending on existing infrastructure, team familiarity, or specific requirements.

Can my website grow with my business?

Yes. We build modular, flexible platforms designed for scalability. This "future-proof" approach allows you to add new features, integrations, or international markets without the need for a costly, full-scale redevelopment.

Can you integrate with our existing systems?

Yes. We regularly integrate systems with tools like Sage, Xero, HubSpot, and mailing list platforms such as Mailchimp or Mailerlite. Whether it’s a CRM, ERP, finance, or email marketing system, we use APIs or custom connectors to ensure everything works together, streamlining workflows, reducing manual input, and keeping your data in sync.

How do you ensure your websites are accessible?

Accessibility is baked into our process, not added on. We follow WCAG guidelines to ensure your site is usable for everyone, featuring clear contrasts, screen-reader compatibility, and seamless navigation across all devices.

Can you make my website available in multiple languages?

Yes. We build websites with global scalability in mind. Whether you need a simple bilingual site or a complex platform supporting dozens of languages, we can implement robust multilingual functionality that allows you to reach international audiences seamlessly.

How do you measure the impact of your websites?

We track commercial success through SEO rankings and conversion metrics, alongside environmental impact. We provide a digital carbon footprint calculation to show how our lean coding has reduced your brand's emissions.

Do you provide ongoing website support after launch?

Yes, we act as long-term partners. We provide technical support, security updates, and performance monitoring to ensure your site stays fast, secure, and sustainable as your business evolves.

What industries do you work with?

We partner with purpose-driven businesses in climate tech, advanced manufacturing, and sustainability. Our focus is on ambitious organisations that want to scale commercially while maintaining environmental responsibility.
