Web design & development · Crawley, West Sussex
Crawley has everything from the engineering firms of Manor Royal to family-run businesses in Three Bridges, Broadfield and Maidenbower. NewWebsite designs and builds fast, bespoke websites that help local companies stand out, rank on Google and turn visitors into enquiries. It's run by Jack, a web designer with more than 20 years' experience, working from Horley just up the A23.
Local web design
Crawley grew from a small market town into one of England's post-war new towns, and it still has that mix of old and new. The historic High Street and Queens Square sit at its heart, while each neighbourhood, from Ifield and Langley Green to Pound Hill and Furnace Green, has its own parade of shops and local traders. To the north, Manor Royal is one of the largest business districts in the South East, home to engineering, aviation, logistics and technology firms, with Gatwick right next door and the M23 and Three Bridges station linking the town to London and Brighton.
That variety means your customers are varied too. A homeowner in Maidenbower looking for a roofer, a procurement manager checking out a new supplier and a traveller hunting for somewhere to eat before a flight all judge a business by its website, usually on a phone and usually in a hurry. Plenty of commuters browse on the train and expect pages to load instantly. A slow, dated or confusing site sends them straight back to Google and on to a competitor.
NewWebsite isn't based in the town itself. Jack works from Horley, about 4.6 miles to the north, which makes it easy to meet for a coffee in the town centre or visit you at your unit on Manor Royal. You talk directly to the person who designs and builds your site, from first chat to launch and beyond. Every website is built by hand to be quick, secure and simple to update, so it keeps working as hard as you do.
Services
Everything you need to look great online, get found on Google and turn visitors into customers, from one experienced developer.
A bespoke website shaped around your business, whether you're a Manor Royal manufacturer who needs to impress procurement teams or a Tilgate salon that wants more bookings. No templates, just clear design that reflects who you are.
Online shops that make buying easy, with secure checkout, stock control and delivery options that suit you. Ideal for local retailers and makers who want to reach customers across the Gatwick Diamond and beyond, or offer local collection.
Booking systems, client portals and internal tools for the logistics, engineering and service firms around the town. If a spreadsheet or paper form is slowing your team down, it can probably become a simple web app.
Local SEO that helps you appear when people search by neighbourhood as well as town, from Pound Hill to Bewbush. Clean code, fast pages, useful content and a well-kept Google Business Profile all play their part.
Outgrown a site built years ago? A redesign keeps what works, fixes what doesn't and brings your Crawley business up to date on mobile, speed and search, while taking care to protect the Google rankings you've already earned.
Fast, secure hosting with updates, backups and friendly support from someone just up the road in Horley. When you need a change made or have a question, you speak to Jack directly.
Who I work with
The local economy stretches from aviation to neighbourhood retail, so every site starts with who your customers are and what they need to do next.
Firms supplying Gatwick and the wider aviation industry need websites that set out capability, accreditations and technical detail clearly, so buyers and engineers can shortlist them with confidence.
With the M23 and the airport so close, the town is a natural base for couriers, freight forwarders and warehousing. Your site should explain coverage and make getting a quote quick.
Plumbers, electricians and builders working across the town's neighbourhoods need a mobile-friendly site with clear service areas, genuine reviews and a one-tap call button for urgent jobs.
Accountants, solicitors, recruiters and consultants serving Manor Royal and the town centre need a polished, trustworthy site that explains what they do and makes booking a first meeting simple.
Restaurants, takeaways, cafés and venues around the High Street and the neighbourhood parades need menus, opening times and online ordering or booking that work perfectly on a phone.
Dentists, physios, salons and personal trainers need online booking, clear treatment pages and a website that feels as welcoming as their premises.
Local SEO
Most people looking for a local business start with Google, and the map pack (the handful of businesses shown with a map at the top of the results) is where many of them click first. Getting into it depends on a complete, active Google Business Profile, a steady flow of reviews and a website that clearly confirms where you are and which parts of town you cover.
Because Crawley is made up of distinct neighbourhoods, people often search more locally than the town name. Someone in Maidenbower may type 'hairdresser Maidenbower', while an office manager might search 'IT support Manor Royal'. A well-planned site with genuinely useful service and area pages helps you show up for those searches too, without resorting to thin, repetitive copy that Google ignores. Jack builds this into every project from the start rather than bolting it on afterwards, so your site is ready to compete from launch day.

Web design in HorleyFAQs
Can't see your question? Just ask. You'll always get a straight, jargon-free answer.
Of course. NewWebsite is about 4.6 miles away in Horley, so getting together is easy. Jack is happy to come to your office on Manor Royal, your shop or your unit, or to meet somewhere in the town centre. If it suits you better, a phone call, video call or chat on WhatsApp works just as well.
Absolutely. Companies on Manor Royal often need something different from a consumer website: clear capability pages, downloadable spec sheets, accreditation details and enquiry forms that reach the right team. With more than 20 years in web design, Jack can plan a site that speaks to buyers and engineers, and build portals or internal tools if your team needs them.
Yes. People often search by neighbourhood, such as Pound Hill, Ifield or Tilgate, especially for trades and everyday services. We look at where your customers actually are, then shape your site's content and Google Business Profile around those areas in a natural way, so you're relevant to nearby searches without stuffing pages with place names.
Yes. Some businesses here serve customers who are more comfortable in a language other than English. Your site can have properly translated pages, set up so search engines know which version to show, plus a simple language switcher. For the pages that matter most, we'd always recommend a professional translation over automatic tools.
A website won't win a contract on its own, but it's often the first thing a buyer checks. If you want to supply larger Manor Royal companies or airport-related firms, your site needs clear evidence of experience, the right accreditations and insurance details, and examples of your own work, presented professionally.
