The big problem
Too many small businesses and startups struggle to get a website that actually works. Traditional agencies are expensive and over complicated, while DIY builders promise simplicity but quietly drain time, energy, and confidence.
Business owners are left choosing between paying far more than planned or spending evenings and weekends wrestling with tools they never wanted to learn in the first place.
The result is often a website that feels unfinished, fails to clearly explain the business, and does little to generate enquiries or support growth.
Along came JigiWeb
JigiWeb was created to make professional websites more accessible for small businesses and startups across the UK. Not every business needs a large agency, a long contract, or a complex build just to get online properly.
That’s why we offer one simple, well defined package. Everything essential is included, with nothing added unless it genuinely helps your business move forward.

Built-in quality
Structured for clarity and SEO
Every page is structured with clear headings, logical flow, and strong foundations for search visibility, reflecting the approach of a small business web design company and making your business easy to understand at a glance for both visitors and search engines.
The aim is to help people scan content, quickly grasp what you offer, and move confidently through the site without confusion. This same structure supports SEO by using clean page hierarchies, sensible content ordering, and purposeful headings that improve indexing and long term visibility.
Rather than relying on gimmicks, the focus is on solid fundamentals that allow your small business website to grow, evolve, and perform reliably over time.
Accessible, fast and considered
This considered approach removes unnecessary friction. By avoiding heavy scripts, cluttered layouts, and trend led features that add little value, websites remain fast, stable, and accessible for small businesses over time.
Sites are built with performance and accessibility in mind from the start. Clean layouts, readable content, and sensible design choices create a better experience for every visitor, regardless of device, connection speed, or ability.
The result is a website that works reliably for real users, supports good usability standards, and performs well without sacrificing clarity, maintainability, or long term value.
No unnecessary complexity
Only tools and features that serve a clear purpose are used. Every element is chosen because it adds real value, not because it looks impressive or follows a passing trend, keeping websites focused and easy to understand.
By avoiding unnecessary complexity, small business websites stay lighter, faster, and easier to maintain over time. There is less to break, fewer conflicts to manage, and more flexibility as your business evolves.
The result is a reliable, practical website that continues to perform well long after launch, without hidden technical debt or avoidable issues appearing later.
Built with real users in mind
Every design decision is guided by how real people read, scan, and interact with a website, rather than trends or gimmicks. Content is structured with clear cues, sensible layouts, and predictable interactions.
This user first approach focuses on clarity, comfort, and trust. By designing for real behaviour, small business websites become easier to use, easier to understand, and more effective at doing their job.
The result is a website that feels natural to interact with, supports meaningful engagement, and works quietly in the background without getting in the way.

Our work
A selection of recent projects, showing how different businesses come to life online through clear structure, thoughtful design, and purposeful content.
Bumblebee In-Frame Kitchens
This project was designed for a business that wanted to feel professional, but not overly corporate. The aim was to create a credible, structured website while keeping a sense of personality.
We built a clean, modern layout supported by subtle visual details. Custom flying bee elements and divider graphics were introduced to add a light, approachable feel without distracting from the content.
The result is a website that feels polished at first glance, while still showing character as users explore. It balances trust and personality, helping the business stand out without losing clarity.
How the support plan works
When something goes wrong with your website, you shouldn’t have to work out what happens next. Our website maintenance service follows a simple four-step process that keeps everything clear, calm, and easy to understand.
Step 1: You contact us
If you notice a problem or something doesn’t seem right, you get in touch. A quick message is enough to get things moving. There’s no ticket system, no chasing different providers, and no uncertainty about who’s responsible for helping you.
Step 3: We fix or restore
We resolve the issue as quickly and carefully as possible, whether that means fixing a broken feature, restoring your site from a backup, or stabilising something that’s gone wrong. Our focus is always on getting your website working properly again.
Step 2: We assess the issue
We investigate what’s happening and identify the cause of the problem. If the issue is covered by your support plan, we move straight to fixing it. If anything falls outside the plan, we explain it clearly and outline the next steps before doing any work.
Step 4: You are back on track
Once everything is sorted, your website is fully working again. There’s no technical confusion, no lingering issues, and no wasted time trying to work out what happened or whether anything still needs further attention.

Clear process, no surprises
We believe trust comes from clarity, not gimmicks. That’s why we are upfront about how we work, what is included, and how your website is delivered. This approach allows us to offer affordable web design for small business clients, delivering professional results at a fair price while respecting the time and care required to build a site properly.
Clear from the start
You complete a detailed questionnaire, which we use to design, write, and build your website. Once everything is delivered, you review the site and request any reasonable tweaks before it goes live, giving you a clear, structured process you can trust with our web design services in Nottingham.
No hidden extras
The £599 price is clear and upfront from day one. There are no surprise fees, hidden charges, or unnecessary upgrades added once work has started on your website, keeping our web design services in Nottingham simple, transparent, and easy to budget for.
Built to last
Your website is designed, written, and built carefully using WordPress and the Gutenberg editor, not rushed. This provides the strongest level of future-proofing, helping your site stay compatible with WordPress updates over time. We focus on solid fundamentals so your site works properly, represents your business professionally, and delivers long-term value as part of our affordable web design for small business services.
Why The Assembly Co. was created.
Many traditional event formats prioritise attendance numbers over relevance. Large expos and generic networking environments often fail to create the kind of conversations enterprise technology brands are actually looking for.
The Assembly Co. was created to offer a more focused approach as an executive event company for enterprise technology brands. One built around relevant audiences, commercially aligned conversations and professionally delivered experiences people genuinely want to attend.
We create executive events that bring the right people together in the right environment, helping B2B technology brands build stronger relationships with senior decision-makers.

Why the Assembly Co.
Hi, I’m Mark, founder of The Assembly Co. I started the business with a simple idea: the best business relationships are still built face-to-face. Too many events have become overcrowded, impersonal and focused on numbers instead of real conversations.
The Assembly Co. works with B2B technology brands across SaaS, Cybersecurity, AI and Enterprise Technology to deliver executive event management that feels relevant, well planned and genuinely worthwhile for the people attending.
The result is an experience that feels more personal, more relevant and ultimately more valuable for everyone involved. When people are comfortable, engaged and surrounded by the right peers, conversations become more natural, relationships develop more easily and the commercial opportunities tend to follow.
