Independent web design · Northern Ireland
A business in one town can serve customers across the region. A community organisation can bring people together online. I’m Jb, a Belfast-based designer and developer building custom websites for organisations throughout Northern Ireland.
A view from our Belfast base. Working with organisations across Northern Ireland.
The useful starting point
The useful starting point is how people reach you and what they need next. That might be a local enquiry, an online purchase or a member signing in from the other side of Northern Ireland. We plan those journeys together before choosing a platform or drawing the first page.
Explain your offer, show relevant work and help customers make a confident enquiry. We can separate your services and service areas so the right visitor reaches the right information, without giving you a site full of repetitive pages.
Clubs and charities often need public information alongside events, memberships or staff tools. We map what should be public, what needs a protected area and who will keep it current, so the website supports the people running it.
Products, delivery information, checkout and the work behind each order need to fit together. We agree the catalogue, payment and integration requirements early, whether you sell locally or want to reach a wider audience.
Across Northern Ireland
The studio is based in Belfast. Explore the city guides for local context, project examples and questions to help plan your own website.
From a guitar teacher introducing their lessons to a charity helping people find support, a good website has a practical job to do. I design and build bespoke websites from Belfast, working directly with the people behind the organisation.
Explore the guideIf your Lisburn business grows through appointments, quotations or repeat customers, the website should help people understand the offer before they contact you. I’m Jb, a Belfast-based designer and developer working with organisations across Northern Ireland.
Explore the guideA creative business, independent service or community group needs to feel like itself online, while making the practical details easy to find. I build custom websites for organisations in Bangor and across Northern Ireland, working directly with you from my Belfast studio.
Explore the guideYour website can introduce an organisation rooted in the city while reaching customers and supporters much further away. I’m Jb at Leviathan Studios in Belfast, building bespoke websites and online shops for organisations across Northern Ireland.
Explore the guideBefore the first sketch
For an organisation working across several places, location content should help someone decide whether you can serve them. A good brief explains the real differences: delivery coverage, appointment locations, event venues or the services available in each area.
See the bespoke website serviceWhich customers or communities need to use the website?
Where do you provide the service, deliver orders or hold events?
Which information needs a regional overview, and which needs a local page?
Who will update content and manage enquiries after launch?
Which existing pages, search traffic and systems need to survive the move?
Work from the studio
Explore three different kinds of Leviathan project: a community platform, a football club rebuild and a bilingual online shop. The case studies explain the decisions and scope behind each build.
Useful questions
Yes. The studio is based in Belfast, and I work with organisations across Northern Ireland and further afield. Planning, design reviews and handover can happen remotely. You deal directly with me rather than being passed between an account manager and a separate build team.
A focused bespoke website usually starts from £4,000, with a typical 6–10 week schedule. Larger shops or platforms need a different scope. Content, integrations, migration and the features you need all affect the quote; we agree those before work begins.
We can scope a shared website around the needs of different services or locations. That starts with a content and URL audit, clear responsibility for updates, and a plan for any redirects. The aim is to make the structure easier for your visitors and your team to use.
Search-friendly structure, metadata, content planning and launch checks are part of the build. A rebuild also needs to protect useful existing URLs. Search visibility depends on the wider competition and the content and reputation you build over time, so specific rankings are not part of a website quote.
One person, from first chat to launch
Share what your organisation does, the places or people you serve, and what is becoming difficult with the current setup. A rough outline is enough to begin.
