Web Design in Knysna

Yes. Oakhill School in Knysna is one of ours. Most of our published work sits a little further along the coast in Plettenberg Bay and Cape Town, and we are happy to walk you through whichever of those is closest to your situation.

About half an hour. Our studio is in Plettenberg Bay, so Knysna is the closest town to us of any we work in. Most of the project still runs remotely, but being nearby makes an in person kick off easy when it helps.

Usually, yes. Slow sites are most often caused by oversized images, a bloated page builder and no caching, and all three can be fixed on the existing site. We will tell you upfront if the foundation is too weak to be worth rescuing, rather than charging you for both.

Yes, and it is one of our favourite jobs. We rebuild your existing design on Bricks, a leaner WordPress framework, keeping the look and fixing the weight. When we did this for Rockfig Lodge, the time to first image dropped from 21 seconds to 4.4. It is a fixed-price piece of work with a before-and-after report included.

Usually within two to four weeks, depending on the pipeline. We would rather give you a real date than a flattering one. Once we start, you get a working build to click on early, not a big reveal at the end.

Yes. We create artwork for both print and digital use, so your brand can stay consistent across brochures, flyers, social media, presentations, websites, and campaign assets.

A graphic designer helps shape how your business looks and communicates visually. This can include logos, brochures, social media graphics, posters, presentations, packaging, signage, and other brand materials. The aim is to make your brand feel professional, consistent, and easy to recognise.

A Brochure Website is your company’s digital profile. Its primary goal is to establish online presence, build credibility, and provide essential information to your customers.

Typically ranging from 1 to 10 pages, it acts as a 24/7 sales representative that showcases your services, your brand story, and how people can contact you. While it doesn’t include complex features like online stores or member portals, it is the essential foundation for any professional business looking to turn “searchers” into “clients.”

The Short Version: A CMS, or Content Management System, is the software behind your website that allows you to update content like text, images, and blog posts without needing to write a single line of code. Think of it as the “dashboard” for your digital home.

Our Specific Stack: We don’t just give you a generic CMS; we build a high-performance engine tailored to your business using three core tools:

• WordPress: The world’s most popular and flexible CMS. It provides the foundation, ensuring your site is scalable, secure, and “future-proof.”
• Bricks Builder: Unlike “bloated” page builders that slow sites down, Bricks allows us to write clean, lightning-fast code visually. It ensures your site is high-performance and ranks better on Google.
• ACF (Advanced Custom Fields): This is where the magic happens for you. We use ACF to create a bespoke editing experience. Instead of getting lost in complex settings, you’ll have simple, labeled boxes to fill in. If you want to change a team member’s bio or a business listing attribute, you just type it in and hit “Update.”

We start with a discovery phase where we discuss your goals, target audience, and design preferences. We will need your branding assets (logo, fonts) and your content (text and images). If you don’t have high-quality images or copy, we can discuss adding copywriting and art direction to your package.

The timeline varies depending on the complexity of the project (e.g., a one-page microsite vs. a full e-commerce platform). Generally, a standard corporate website takes between 4 to 8 weeks from the strategy phase to launch. We will provide a detailed timeline after assessing your specific requirements.

Yes. We often find that a new website is the perfect catalyst for a brand refresh. Our creative team can work with you to refine your logo, colour palette, and brand guidelines to ensure your new digital presence is consistent, modern, and impactful.

Yes, we build robust e-commerce platforms using WooCommerce. Whether you are selling luxury homeware, booking travel experiences, or offering digital downloads, we create secure, easy-to-manage online stores that convert visitors into customers.

Absolutely. We specialise in refactoring and migrating legacy websites to modern standards. We can take your existing design and rebuild it in Bricks to improve its speed, security, and manageability without losing the visual essence of your brand.

We believe your digital presence should be as unique as your business. While we use WordPress as our foundation, we design and build custom layouts tailored to your brand’s specific goals. We don’t rely on “cookie-cutter” templates; we build strategic digital solutions that tell your story.

We prioritise speed, performance, and clean code. Unlike older page builders that can slow down a site with unnecessary code, Bricks Builder allows us to create websites that are lightning-fast and score highly on Google’s Core Web Vitals. This ensures your visitors have a smooth experience and your SEO ranking potential is maximised.
