Web Design by Matt: A Web Designer Based Near Bonsall, Serving Matlock Service Businesses
Quick Summary
Web Design by Matt is a one-person web design and digital marketing business. I run it from 32 Porteous Cl, Two Dales, Matlock DE4 2EN, near Bonsall. I build websites and the marketing around them for service businesses and tradespeople who need more enquiries and bookings, drawing on years spent growing my own service business online.
If you run a service business, you’ll know the feeling. The work is good, but the phone doesn’t ring as often as it should. Maybe your website is out of date. Maybe it looks fine but brings in very little. Maybe you don’t have one at all.
My name is Matt and I run Web Design by Matt. If you’ve been looking for a web designer in Bonsall, I’m based nearby at 32 Porteous Cl, Two Dales, Matlock DE4 2EN. Matlock is the market I focus on. I build conversion-focused, mobile-optimised websites for service business owners. Conversion-focused simply means the site is built to turn visitors into enquiries. Mobile-optimised means it works properly on a phone. The goal is more enquiries and less stress for you.
Web Design by Matt is me. It’s a one-person business, so you deal with me directly. You won’t be passed between departments or handed to someone you’ve never spoken to. I’ll be the one who learns how your business works and builds what you need.
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 first-hand what it takes to win work online. That's the background I bring to every project. I understand the pressure of needing the next job, because I've had to find customers for my own business.
Web design is my main job. Around it, I also work as a marketing agency, a copywriting service, a web hosting company and an internet marketing service. In plain English, that means I can build your site, write the words on it, host it and keep it updated. I can also help your business show up in local searches through local SEO and your Google Business Profile, and set up email marketing that follows up with people for you.
I call what I build online marketing systems. A website on its own is only the starting point. What makes it useful is everything connected to it. That includes lead capture, which is the forms and buttons that let visitors get in touch or book. It includes a CRM, a simple place to keep track of every enquiry. It includes automations that send follow-ups without you lifting a finger, and booking. Together, that's a complete client system built to help you generate predictable leads and consistent growth.
This is built for service business owners. Think plumbers, electricians, builders and roofers. Think therapists, physiotherapists and counsellors, or accountants, consultants and coaches. If people contact you for a quote or book an appointment, and your current website isn't helping you get those enquiries, you're who I had in mind when I set this business up.

How Matt Builds a Website: The Service Business Blueprint Process
- 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 is where it starts, and I can build a new one or redesign the one you have. Beyond that, I look after Managed Website Hosting, WordPress Hosting, WordPress Updates, Website Security Monitoring, Malware Removal and Website Backup Management. To help people find you, I offer Local SEO, Google Business Profile Optimisation and Management, Local SEO Audits, SEO Website Audits and Local SEO Campaign Management. I write SEO Copywriting and Conversion Focused Copywriting. I also set up and run email marketing, including Email Marketing Automation, Lead Nurture Email Sequences, Email Newsletter Management and Customer Retention Email Marketing. Behind it all sit Lead Generation Strategy, Conversion Rate Optimisation, Marketing Funnel Development and Digital Marketing Strategy. The aim is digital marketing without the stress, handled by one person you can call.I'd rather be clear about fit up front. I don't build simple brochure websites, ecommerce sites or app-based websites. I focus on service businesses that need enquiries and bookings, not online shops or product sales. Whether you're a plumber, a physio or an accountant, the question is the same: do you need more people getting in touch? 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.On guarantees, I'll be straight with you. I don't make promises about rankings or results that nobody can guarantee. What I do promise is that I'll be there when you need me: advising, advocating for your business, and supporting your digital marketing for the long term. If something isn't working, I'll tell you and put it right.I'm a member of Derbyshire Dales Trusted Trader, an independent scheme that vets local businesses for quality and reliability. I'm also a member of the East Midlands Chamber of Commerce. The business carries £2 million Public Liability and £1 million Professional Indemnity cover.
