About us

Norfolk Web Design Studio That Builds Websites That Work

Arcscribe Ltd is a web design studio based in Norwich, Norfolk. We make fast, accessible, SEO-optimized websites for local businesses who want something better than a template but don't need a big agency. Professional web design at honest prices.

Why we're different from the lazy agencies

We're young and we're hungry. We don't have fancy offices or bloated overheads. That means we can charge less and deliver faster than the established agencies who got comfortable years ago.

Every website is custom-built from scratch, not dragged together from templates or WordPress plugins. We write clean, fast code because we actually care about the quality of our work.

We work twice as hard because we have something to prove. While other agencies make you wait weeks for a response, we get back to you same day. While they're outsourcing to freelancers, we're building your site ourselves.

Fixed prices, no BS. You know exactly what you're paying upfront. No hourly rates that mysteriously balloon, no "scope creep" fees, no subscription traps.

How we work

1

Discovery call

We chat about your business, what you need the site to do, and what success looks like. This is free and takes about 30 minutes.

2

Quote & timeline

If we're a good fit, you get a fixed quote and a realistic timeline. No hidden costs, no scope creep.

3

Design & build

We design in the browser and share progress as we go. You can request changes before anything's set in stone.

4

Launch & support

We handle domain setup, hosting, and everything technical. Once live, we're available for updates and improvements.

Why choose local underdogs over fancy London agencies?

We're in Norwich. Not London, not outsourcing to India. You can meet us face-to-face, grab a coffee, or just know that your money is staying in Norfolk and supporting a local business.

We understand Norfolk businesses because we are one. We know the market, we know what works here, and we're not going to pitch you expensive solutions you don't need.

We work with businesses across Norfolk and beyond, but there's something valuable about being local. Quicker responses, easier communication, and a shared understanding of what works here.

Plus, we can recommend trusted local suppliers when you need photography, copywriting, or other services we don't offer ourselves.

Our approach

Fast by default

We write lean code and optimize everything. No page builders, no bloated frameworks. Your site loads in under a second, even on slow connections.

Built to last

We use proven, stable technology. Your site won't break when a plugin updates, and you won't be locked into proprietary platforms.

Accessible to everyone

We follow WCAG guidelines and test with screen readers. Your customers can use your site regardless of how they browse the web.

Mobile first

Most traffic is mobile. We design for phones first, then scale up to tablets and desktops. Everything works everywhere.

Search friendly

Semantic HTML, fast loading, proper meta tags, sitemaps. We build sites that search engines can understand and rank.

Honest pricing

Fixed quotes, no hourly rates, no retainer lock-in. You know exactly what you're paying before we start.
