What’s included

Designed for your customers

Built around who your customers are and what you want them to do, not a template. You see working pages early and often.

Fast on every phone

Most of your visitors are on mobile. Pages are built to load quickly on mobile data, because slow sites lose customers and rank lower.

Built to be found

Page titles, structured data, a sitemap and Google Search Console set up properly at launch, so Google understands what you do and where.

Easy to update

A content editor, usually Sanity or WordPress, so you can change text, photos and pages yourself without calling anyone.

Yours to keep

Your domain, your content and your code, with no lock-in, and a fixed quote agreed before any work starts.

Looked after after launch

Hosting and care plans from £50 a month, or a clean handover if you’d rather run it yourself.

What a website costs in Lincoln

Website prices in Lincoln vary a lot. Template packages from local designers start at a few hundred pounds, small studios typically charge £1,000 to £3,500, and established agencies start at around £5,000.

Our websites start at £1,500 and online shops at £2,500. What moves the price is the number of page designs, how much content needs writing or moving across, and anything that has to connect to another system, such as bookings, payments or a CRM. Whatever the size, you get a fixed quote before we start, so the price doesn’t creep.

Why work with a Lincoln studio

You can meet the person building your website. That makes it easier to talk through the brief, look at progress together and train your team at the end, and you always know who to call.

We cover Lincoln and the surrounding area in person, including North Hykeham, Bracebridge Heath, Waddington, Nettleham, Welton, Saxilby and Washingborough, as well as Sleaford, Gainsborough, Market Rasen and Newark.

The experience behind it is national. The same developer has built global websites for Wall Street English, a customer portal for Uptime and booking products for Go-Ahead Group, so a local business gets the same standard of build as a global brand.

How a project runs

  1. 01A chat. A free 20-minute call, or a coffee in Lincoln, to talk through what you need.
  2. 02A fixed quote. A written scope, price and timeline within a few working days.
  3. 03Design and build. Regular previews you can click through and share, with no big reveal at the end.
  4. 04Launch and training. We go live, show you how to update the site, and stay on hand afterwards.

Need more than a website? We also build online shops, web apps and mobile apps.

Common questions

How much does a website cost in Lincoln?+

Our websites start at £1,500. The price depends on the number of page designs, how much content needs writing or moving across, and features such as bookings or payments. Online shops start at £2,500. You get a fixed quote before any work starts.

Are you a web designer or a web developer?+

Both. Joe is a web designer and web developer based in Lincoln, so the person who designs your website is the same person who builds it. Nothing gets lost in a handover between a designer and a separate development team.

Can we meet in person?+

Yes. Indigo 42 is based in Lincoln, so we can meet at your premises or in town for the first chat, check-ins along the way and training at the end. Video calls work just as well if you prefer.

How long does a website take?+

Most small business websites go live within two to four weeks of agreeing the brief. The biggest variable is usually content, so we agree who is writing what at the start.

Will I be able to update the website myself?+

Yes. Every site comes with an editor for your text, photos, pages and blog posts, and we walk you through it at handover.

Will my website show up on Google?+

Every site launches with the technical SEO in place: fast pages, clear titles, structured data and a sitemap submitted to Google. For local searches your Google Business Profile and reviews matter too, and we can help you set those up. Nobody can honestly guarantee a ranking, but a well-built site gives you the best chance.

Can you redesign our existing website?+

Yes. We keep what is working, move your content across and set up redirects from your old pages, so you don’t lose the Google rankings you already have.

Do you only work with Lincoln businesses?+

No. We’re based in Lincoln and happy to meet anywhere nearby, but we work with clients across the UK remotely, and with agencies on white-label projects.
