Start your projectHi, I'm William Hart
I founded Devon Websites to help small businesses create powerful, affordable websites that actually work for them—not against them.
I believe great websites should be both powerful and simple to manage. While many businesses get stuck with confusing dashboards and bloated systems, I focus on creating clean, efficient websites that just work.
When I build custom sites, I use modern technologies that are not only faster and more energy-efficient, but also give you complete control without the technical headaches. I focus on clean, optimized code that loads quickly and performs well.
Based at Playground Workspace in Dartington, I have access to a talented network of specialists including graphic designers, photographers, product designers, and screen printers. This means I can handle everything from simple website updates to complete brand overhauls—whatever your project needs.
I use the right platform for your needs - Squarespace for ease of management, Framer for creative designs, or custom code with Prismic CMS for unique requirements.

Common questions about our web design services
Get quick answers to the most common questions we hear from Devon businesses about websites, pricing, and our process.
How much does a website cost in Devon?
Our Squarespace websites start from £400, custom websites from £750, and SEO packages from £200. For larger projects requiring advanced integrations, costs increase accordingly. When projects require capabilities beyond our core expertise, we collaborate with local partners who have delivered solutions for Meta, Lululemon, and Google.
These prices are very competitive for Devon. If you receive a lower quote elsewhere, please share it with us - we're confident our value proposition stands strong against any comparison.
Can you help with website design near me in Devon?
Yes. We're based in Dartington and work with businesses throughout Devon. Whether you're in Exeter, Plymouth, Torquay, Barnstaple, or any location around the county, we provide local web design services with the personal touch you'd expect from a Devon business.
We can meet in person when needed, but most of our work is done efficiently online to keep costs down for you.
How long does it take to build a website?
Typical timelines:
- Squarespace websites: 1-2 weeks (most common). Projects with bookings portals or e-commerce features may require additional time, but most complete promptly
- Custom websites: 2-6 weeks, depending on complexity and feature requirements
- SEO packages: Simple audits complete in 2 days. Comprehensive strategies often benefit from ongoing collaboration
Timeline depends on how quickly you can provide content, images, and feedback. We'll give you a clear timeline in your project quote.
Will my website work on mobile phones?
Absolutely. Every website we build is fully responsive and mobile-friendly. With over 60% of web traffic coming from mobile devices, we ensure your site looks great and works perfectly on phones, tablets, and desktops.
We test every website thoroughly across different devices and screen sizes before launch.
Do you provide hosting and domain setup?
For Squarespace sites: Squarespace manages hosting, domains, and security. While they require an ongoing subscription, you get a free domain for the first year. We transfer full ownership to you while remaining as a contributor for future updates.
For custom sites: We offer Vercel hosting at £10/month (hosting only) or £30/month (includes up to one hour of monthly tech support). Alternatively, we can transfer your codebase to your preferred hosting provider.
What's included in your SEO packages?
Our £200 SEO package focuses on local visibility - ensuring Google understands and promotes your site effectively. You'll receive:
- Local search optimization for Devon customers
- Keyword strategy tailored to your market
- Competitor analysis and link-building opportunities
- Technical audit with specific improvement recommendations
- Clear reporting so you understand both what we're doing and why
The goal is sustainable results you can track and understand.
Can you update my existing website?
I can update existing sites if they're on Squarespace or if they're custom sites written in React or a framework that uses React. If it's WordPress, that's not my expertise so I'd suggest going with someone else.
However, if you want a complete refresh, I can migrate WordPress sites to a more energy-efficient modern website that will serve you better long-term.
Do you offer ongoing support and maintenance?
Yes. We design systems for client independence wherever possible - this saves you money and gives you control.
For Squarespace sites, you'll be trained to handle content updates yourself. Custom sites include user-friendly CMS setup for blog posts and content changes.
For technical issues, performance optimization, and strategic guidance, we remain available as needed.
What is a CMS and how do you handle content management?
A CMS (Content Management System) lets you update website content without coding knowledge.
Squarespace provides an intuitive, all-in-one CMS that's user-friendly, though with some design constraints.
For custom sites, we use Prismic - a powerful system that maintains our precise design while giving you control of your content. It offers a free tier for single users, with affordable plans for team access.
What makes you different from other web designers?
We focus on results, not just pretty websites. Our approach includes:
- Energy-efficient, modern technology
- Clear, jargon-free communication
- Fixed pricing with no hidden costs
- Local Devon knowledge and presence
Plus, we genuinely care about helping small businesses succeed online.
