Web Design by Matt: Website Design and Digital Marketing for Service Businesses
Quick Summary
Web Design by Matt is a one-person web design and digital marketing business for service businesses and tradespeople, based near Matlock. I build complete online marketing systems that bring together web design, local SEO, hosting and ongoing support. Every project follows my five-step Service Business Blueprint.
Maybe your website looks dated. Maybe it sits there and never brings in an enquiry. Or maybe you don’t have one at all and you know you should. If any of that sounds familiar, you’re the kind of service business owner I work with.
I’m Matt, and Web Design by Matt is my business. If you’ve been looking for a web designer near High Tor Recreation Ground in Matlock, it helps to know exactly where I am. My base is in Two Dales, near Matlock. I work with service businesses and tradespeople who need a website that earns its keep, and I’m the person you deal with from the first chat onwards.
I didn’t start out in marketing. I have 7 years’ experience marketing a service-based business. Before I launched Web Design by Matt, I spent years growing my own service business through web design, SEO and digital marketing. I learned what works first hand, by trying to fill my own diary with paying work.
So what do I do? I build complete online marketing systems. A website is one part of that. Alongside the design, I handle local SEO, which simply means helping your business show up when people nearby look for the service you offer. I also look after hosting, keeping your site online, secure and running properly, and I give ongoing support once it's live.
The aim is predictable leads. I mean a steady flow of enquiries you can plan around, instead of feast and famine. I won't promise you rankings or results that nobody can guarantee. What I can do is put the right pieces in place and keep working on them with you.
Every project follows the same five-step process, which I call the Service Business Blueprint. It takes you from a first conversation about your business through to launch and the support that comes after. I'll walk through each step in the next section, so you can see exactly what working with me involves.
I'm not a big agency, and I don't run things like one. You won't be handed between account managers or left wondering who's looking after your site. You get me. I combine hands-on experience of running a service business with the web design and marketing skills to help yours grow. I'm here for the long term: someone you can call, who knows your business and keeps your website working for you. That's what I mean by digital marketing without the stress.

The Service Business Blueprint: How the Website Gets Built, and Who It Suits
- Phase 1, Understanding: I start with a discovery call to learn about your business, your customers and your goals.
- Phase 2, Strategising: I map out your site structure, keywords and local SEO plan. Keywords are simply the words people type when they're looking for a service like yours.
- Phase 3, Building: I design and build your WordPress site around your services and customers.
- Phase 4, Perfecting: I test, optimise and fine-tune for speed, mobile and search, so the site is mobile-optimised and SEO-ready before anyone sees it.
- Phase 5, Launch and Support: I handle the launch, then keep your site hosted, secure and improving.
- The website sits at the centre, but I build complete systems around it. That can mean lead capture, a CRM to keep track of your enquiries, automations and booking. Put plainly, the aim is a complete client system that helps turn a visitor into an enquiry and an enquiry into a booked job.On the website side, I offer website design, small business website design, WordPress website design, service business website design, website redesign, lead generation website design, conversion-focused website design and website maintenance. Conversion-focused just means the site is built to get people to pick up the phone or fill in a form.To help people find you, I offer local SEO, Google Business Profile optimisation, Google Business Profile management, local SEO audits, SEO website audits and local SEO campaign management. I also write the words on the page, with SEO copywriting and conversion-focused copywriting.For the technical side you'd rather not think about, I provide managed website hosting, WordPress hosting, WordPress updates, website security monitoring, malware removal and website backup management.Then there's the marketing that keeps work coming in. This covers email marketing setup, email marketing campaign management, email marketing automation, email newsletter management, lead nurture email sequences and customer retention email marketing. Alongside that I offer lead generation strategy, conversion rate optimisation, digital marketing strategy and marketing funnel development. The goal is online marketing systems that work towards predictable leads and consistent growth, and digital marketing without the stress for you.I also work best with people who want a long-term partner to handle their website and marketing, rather than a one-off job they'll manage themselves. If you'd rather build and run everything yourself, I'm probably not the right fit, and I'll say so. I'd rather tell you that at the start than take on work that doesn't suit either of us.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about working with a web designer near High Tor Recreation Ground.
Where is Web Design by Matt based?
I’m based in Two Dales, near Matlock, not in Matlock itself. If you’ve searched for a web designer near High Tor Recreation Ground, that gives you an honest idea of where I work from. I’m a one-person business, so I’m the person you’ll speak to from the first call right through to launch and beyond.
What kind of websites do you build for clients?
I build WordPress websites for service businesses and tradespeople, designed to bring in enquiries rather than just look good. Every site is built around your services and customers, tested for speed and mobile use, and set up to be SEO-ready before it goes live. I don’t build simple brochure sites with no strategy behind them.
Do you only build websites, or is there more to it?
Websites are the core of what I do, but I also handle local SEO, hosting, security and ongoing support once your site is live. I look after things like Google Business Profile management and email marketing too, so the website sits inside a wider system rather than standing alone with nobody looking after it.
