Areas we cover

Web design across Hackney

Shoreditch and Hoxton (E1, E2, EC2A, N1)

The southern tip of the borough, around Old Street, Shoreditch High Street and Hoxton Square. Agencies, start-ups, bars, restaurants, hotels and boutiques compete for attention here, and a strong brand and a sharp website are part of doing business.

Dalston and Hackney Central (E8)

Kingsland Road, Ridley Road Market, Mare Street and the Hackney Empire. A busy mix of long-established traders, restaurants from every part of the world, music venues and new openings. London Fields and Broadway Market, with its Saturday market, sit just to the south.

Stoke Newington (N16)

Church Street and the High Street are lined with independent shops, cafes, delis and family services. Residents are loyal to local businesses and look them up online before visiting.

Clapton and Homerton (E5 and E9)

Chatsworth Road and its Sunday market, Lower Clapton Road and Homerton High Street. Fast-changing neighbourhoods with many young families, which means steady demand for trades, childcare, fitness and food.

Hackney Wick (E9)

Former warehouses beside the Olympic Park, now home to studios, makers, breweries, cafes and creative companies. Many businesses here sell products or services well beyond the borough and need an online shop or a portfolio site.

Hackney businesses we build websites for

• Cafes, restaurants, bars and bakeries that need menus, opening hours and booking links.
• Independent shops and makers who want to sell online as well as from their premises or market stall.
• Creative studios, photographers and designers who need a portfolio that loads fast and shows the work well.
• Salons, barbers, tattoo studios and wellbeing practices with online booking.
• Trades and home services working on Hackney's Victorian terraces and conversions.
• Start-ups and small agencies around Shoreditch and Old Street.
• Nurseries, tutors and community organisations.

Selling online from Hackney

Hackney has an unusual number of businesses that make things: clothing, ceramics, furniture, prints, food and drink. Many began on a market stall at Broadway Market or Chatsworth Road and now want to sell to customers across the country.

An ecommerce website on Shopify or WooCommerce lets you do that without giving a share of each sale to a marketplace. We set up your products, payments and delivery rules, and structure the shop so each product can be found on Google. Online shops start from £1,596, or from £62.99 a month.

Being found in Hackney

People search by neighbourhood here, and they take neighbourhood identity seriously. "Stoke Newington", "Dalston", "Clapton" and "Hackney Wick" are all searched far more than the borough's name, alongside postcodes such as E8, E5, E9 and N16. We plan your pages and headings around the names your customers use.

Because so much of Hackney's trade is on foot, the map results matter a great deal. Someone walking down Kingsland Road looking for coffee or a haircut sees the three businesses Google chooses to show. A complete Google Business Profile with good photos, accurate hours and a steady flow of real reviews is what puts you among them, and we link it to your website. Ongoing local SEO is available when you want to go further.

How a project works

Tell us about your business and what the website needs to do. We send a fixed price in writing. We agree the pages, you send your logo, photos and details, and we design the home page for your approval on mobile and desktop. We then build the remaining pages, test them, put the site live on your domain and submit it to Google. We are based in East Ham, a short journey across East London, and handle projects by phone, WhatsApp, video call and email, 24 hours a day.

Marketing support for Hackney businesses

A website is the centre of your online presence, and we can help with what surrounds it. Instagram matters more in Hackney than almost anywhere in London, especially for food, fashion and beauty, and our Facebook and Instagram ads service can put your work in front of people who live within walking distance. Monthly SEO builds your position in Google over time.
