Web design
in Ripon.
Ripon trades on being a cathedral city, and that status is exactly why so little heavy commercial activity happens anywhere near the cathedral itself. The centre is kept for the kind of business that photographs well, retail, legal, financial, while anything requiring real space got moved out long ago.
Three things,
done well.
Web design & build.
Strategy through to ship. I design and build myself, so what you approve is what gets built, not something reinterpreted by whoever picks it up next. The site that lands is the one you signed off, with a month of ongoing care after launch.
Brand identity.
Marks, systems and the small details that turn a name into a reputation. Built to work in print, in code, on screen.
Custom web apps.
When an off-the-shelf site won't do: logins, dashboards, databases, the machinery behind the front door. Built to the same standard as the pages you can see.
Why it matters here.
That's not neglect, it's a deliberate trade a lot of heritage towns make: protect the image, relocate the machinery. The businesses that stayed in the centre are the ones selling trust and judgement rather than square footage, which means the website is often the only place they get to make a first impression before someone's already decided how credible they seem.
A professional or heritage-adjacent practice, legal, architectural, consultancy, whose actual value is expertise rather than premises, needing a site that carries that authority on its own.
