Web design for Leicester businesses. Live in a week.
Leicester had the slowest business websites of the three cities we checked on a phone. That matters more than it sounds, because a page that takes too long to appear loses the visitor before they have seen a single thing you sell.

Not one of them scored an A. Most of what we found is quick to fix once someone points it out.

typical Google speed score on a phone
Checked in September 2026. The sample is trades and hospitality businesses in Leicester that have a website and publish an email address, so it is not every business in the city. Speed is the median Google PageSpeed score on a phone across the 55 sites that gave a consistent result. Company number applies to limited companies, which all of these were. No business is named here.
What a Leicester business gets
Built for a phone first
Most people find a local business on a phone. That is the screen the site is designed on, not an afterthought once the desktop version is done.
Found when people search
Set up so you turn up when someone searches your trade and your area, with your Google Business listing wired in and tidied up.
The legal pages done properly
Privacy policy, cookie policy and company details that match what the site actually does, so the page a customer checks does not undermine the rest.
Looked after afterwards
Hosting, updates and changes when you need them. You send a message and it gets done. No ticket system.
