Brand websites built to rank and convert
A job description rarely describes the real risk in a product. It helps to work with someone who has already built something similar.
You talk directly to the people writing the code, which keeps architecture decisions close to the implementation.
We work best with businesses searching for a website developer who want a partner that ships. Custom website development with performance, SEO, and clear calls to action.
What you get
- Custom brand websites
- Core Web Vitals focus
- Clear conversion paths
- Easy content updates
- Documented handover and runbooks
- Help getting it deployed
How engagement works
Projects are shaped around businesses searching for a website developer, so scope stays realistic, the first release comes quickly, and there is room to improve without a rewrite.
- 01
Discover
Goals, constraints, data sources, and success metrics, all settled before we touch architecture or prompts. You see progress on the critical path every week.
- 02
Design
System design, AI/tool boundaries, interface direction, and interaction prototypes. Nothing here waits on a handover between separate teams.
- 03
Build
Modern stack, clean architecture, evaluated AI behavior, and iterative demos you can react to. On website development projects we favour practical architecture over trendy defaults.
- 04
Launch
Ship, monitor, harden, and keep improving models, tools, and product after go-live. The work for remote and worldwide teams stays tied to the outcome you asked for.
How we build it, and why
The stack is chosen per project, not applied from a template. For website developer work these are the defaults, and the reason each one is on the list.
- Next.js
- server rendering and static generation in one framework, so marketing pages stay fast and app routes stay dynamic
- React
- the component model most teams can already hire for and maintain
- Tailwind
- design decisions stay in the markup, so the CSS does not grow faster than the product
- Strapi
- a headless CMS so content editors ship copy without a deploy
- Vercel
- preview deploys on every branch, so review happens on a real URL instead of a screenshot
What the first weeks look like
- Days 1-3
Context and constraints
Codebase, deploy path, and what "done" means for the website development. Short, because the useful version of this is specific.
- Week 1
First shipped slice
Something real goes out in the first week — custom brand websites rather than a setup ticket.
- Weeks 2-6
Build to the milestone
Pull requests, reviews, and weekly demos. You see the work as it happens rather than at a handover meeting.
- Handover
Documented and transferable
Runbooks, architecture notes, and a walkthrough, so the work does not depend on us still being here.
Weighing up your options
There are three realistic ways to get this built. Each is the right answer for someone.
A solo freelancer
Cheapest per hour and fine for a contained task. The risk on website development is breadth — one person covering design, backend, infrastructure, and launch usually means one of them is weak, and there is no cover when they are unavailable.
An in-house hire
A permanent engineer is the right call once the website development is continuous rather than a project. Before that point you are paying a salary, recruiting for months, and carrying the risk that the first hire is the wrong shape for the problem.
Arcode
A small senior team. The people who scope the website development write the code, you get weekly demos instead of status decks, and the engagement ends when the thing is live and handed over.

Where we work
