Why Web Design Cheltenham? First Impressions Matter
Good responsive web design for your Cheltenham website matters. Your website is the window through which your audience views your Cheltenham-based business. A professionally designed WordPress website will encourage people to buy your products or services. Conversely poor web design, or a website which is not responsive, will see them leave your website as quickly as they arrived.
Every business in Cheltenham needs a well-constructed and professional website if it wants to promote its products or services successfully. We use the WordPress content management system for all our web design in Cheltenham, as it the most flexible and user-friendly platform to build your new responsive website on. Over a third of the world's websites are designed on WordPress. Cotswold Websites are specialists with WordPress web design in Cheltenham and only use premium WordPress themes for our website designs. Call us to talk through your new web design project with us.
When you commission a new WordPress website from us, we will take you through the process of learning what you aim to achieve with your new website, so that the website's quality reflects the ambitions and mission of your company. This will include:
- The full scope of your web design project
- Which elements and features you want to have included in the new website
- What your ultimate goals for the website are
Cheltenham Websites Should Be Designed To Convert
Irrespective of whether you need an eCommerce website, an information website, or a lead-capture website, every web page on your site must have a clear goal to help grow your business in Cheltenham. Our websites are carefully and professionally optimised to meet your operational requirements.
The layout of each page will focus on bringing attention to the main goal set for that web page. This will include the text being worded to attract the attention of website visitors who are just browsing or who are visiting your site looking for something more specific. Therefore, good and logical navigation forms a key element of the web design process and is integrated into the page to help your visitors find the information they need.
Your Website Content Should Explain The Benefits Of Your Cheltenham-based Business
People visit websites to get the information or goods they want. Only the best businesses prosper. By designing your website with a content management system such as WordPress, the content will be well managed, will be fully responsive and mobile-friendly. Each sentence on every page will be optimised to give the visitor authoritative information about your products and services.
Content writing is not easy to get right. If you need help in writing the content for your website, we can help you do it. Alternatively, if you provide the copy, we will help optimise it for you. Good web design in Cheltenham will take content optimisation into account.
SEO Should Be Built Into Your Cheltenham Website As Standard

We have always advocated that a website without SEO is as good as a car without an engine - useless! Many Cheltenham web design agencies demand that their customers pay for search engine optimisation on top of the web design and build. We think this approach is wrong and harmful to clients. Therefore, Cotswold Websites ensures that for every new website in Cheltenham we create for our clients in Cheltenham, goes through our search engine optimisation process to give your website the best SEO from the outset.
Good SEO practice is crucial to the design of every website from the earliest stages of web development. Researching and finding potent keywords is a major part of the web design process, so much so that the chosen keywords may affect the design of the website itself. Getting the search engine optimisation as an integral part of the website design must be a priority. This search engine optimisation integration with the design of your website is something Cotswold Websites provides you as standard and is included with every new website we create for Cheltenham businesses.
Mobile Friendly Web Design In Cheltenham

Mobile-friendliness is absolutely vital to your professional new website. Approximately 70% of all Internet browsing is now done from a mobile device. In late 2016 Google announced that it would be ranking websites in their search engine results pages (SERPs) for mobile-first. In other words, if your web design is not mobile-friendly, your website will suffer in the search results. Being a diligent web design agency in Cheltenham, you can be certain that we only design 100% mobile-friendly websites.
To add to the mobile-friendliness of our websites, we optimise the layout of different elements of each web page so that they flow best for mobile website users. This is aimed to help convert visitors into customers by providing them with the information and incentives to click through to your offerings. Good mobile-optimised web design will further help your website to be ranked better by Google, who, as we have seen, place high importance on mobile-friendly websites.

It is a great question, but one which can only be answered accurately with a good idea of what you want from your website. The pricing of all the professional websites that Cotswold Websites create is dependent upon the specifications of the web design work you want. We will take into account:
- The size of the website (number of pages and/or products for an eCommerce website)
- Any advanced features you want to take advantage of
- How much text we will need to provide
- Whether you provide images optimised for web design, or not
- If you need logos and other branding designed

Once the full specification of the Cheltenham web design project has been agreed, we will quote you the price for your new website. Our prices are fixed with no hidden fees, so long as there are no changes to the specification once work has started. Changes to the web design specification will usually mean new pricing needs to be agreed, as the changes may mean significant knock-on effects to the planned web design.

Frequently Asked Questions About Web Design
About Cheltenham

Royal Crescent, Cheltenham
Cheltenham is a delightful town situated close to the Cotswold Hills in northern Gloucestershire. Cheltenham was predominantly built during the Georgian and Regency periods, after the cleansing spa waters were first discovered in 1716.
As Cheltenham's reputation as a spa town grew, so too did the town itself. It was especially during the Regency period that the grand architecture we see today was erected. It still remains the most complete Regency town in the United Kingdom.
Cheltenham is well-known for its promotion of the arts through the many festivals held in the town each year. Most famous of these are the Cheltenham Literary Festival, the Cheltenham Music Festival, the Cheltenham Jazz Festival and the Cheltenham Science Festival. The Montpellier district of Cheltenham is an affluent area whose bars, restaurants and boutique shops are thriving and are the hub of Cheltenham's bustling social life.

GCHQ Cheltenham
The western approach to Cheltenham is dominated by the town's largest employer - HM Government's GCHQ. Its iconic "doughnut" building is unmissable as one drives past it on the way into the town. Cheltenham's economy is otherwise diverse, being made up of light industry, financial services, retail, and all of the services to support its tourism - bars, restaurants and hotels. Each March the town is inundated with visitors from across the globe, who all come to watch the Cheltenham Gold Cup and other races during the week-long pinnacle of National Hunt horse-racing.
With Cheltenham having such a wide-ranging local economy, Cotswold Websites aims to help provide web design excellence and Internet marketing expertise to businesses and organisations of all sectors and sizes throughout Cheltenham and the northern Cotswolds.
