Web Design Stratford-upon-Avon Businesses Can Count On
Stratford-upon-Avon runs on its visitors. As the home of Shakespeare and one of the most visited towns in the country, it is full of hotels, guest houses, restaurants, independent shops and attractions that live or die by how easily people can find and book them online. We work with businesses like these right across the town, from the shops and cafes around Henley Street, Bridge Street and Sheep Street to the holiday lets, clinics, trades and professional firms serving Stratford and the villages around it.
What they all share is a need for a website that brings in the right enquiries and bookings while making the day easier rather than harder. So that is what we build. Every site is built in WordPress and Elementor, so you can make your own edits later without calling a developer for every small change. And because we are close by, meeting in person is easy when it helps.
Improve Before You Rebuild
Plenty of agencies will push a full rebuild because it is the bigger invoice. We do not work that way. Most websites do not need tearing down, they need the right improvements to start performing.
If your current site has good bones, a focused website tune up will often get you better results for a fraction of the cost and disruption of a rebuild. When a brand new website genuinely is the right call, we will tell you that too, and explain why. You get our recommendation based on what will move the needle for your business, not on what pads our bottom line.
Built for How Stratford Customers Find You
A great-looking website is only half the job. People searching in Stratford-upon-Avon need to find you in the first place, and most of them start on Google.
That is why every site we build is search-ready from day one. We handle the technical groundwork that search engines reward, from fast loading pages and a clean structure to proper meta titles, descriptions and schema. You launch on solid foundations, ready to be found.
Want More Stratford Customers? Add Local SEO
If you want to be the business Stratford people find first, local SEO is how you get there. It puts you in the Google map pack and the local near me searches, right when someone nearby is ready to buy or book.
Our local SEO service goes beyond the basics built into your site. We optimise your Google Business Profile, build local citations, target Stratford-upon-Avon and Warwickshire search terms, and earn you the reviews that win trust. The result is a steady stream of qualified enquiries from people right on your doorstep.
Work With Someone Just Up the Road
When you work with Melt, you are not handed off to a faceless account manager. You deal directly with the people building your site.
Matt Eldridge founded Melt Design in 2015 and still leads delivery on client projects today. That means the person planning your website is the same person who understands your goals, your customers and your local market. You also get clear pricing, monthly payment options if you would rather spread the cost, and a partner who is still here long after your site goes live.

Web Design in Stratford-upon-Avon: Common Questions
How much does a new website cost?
Every website is quoted on what you actually need, so you only pay for what moves the needle. We give you a clear, fixed price up front, with monthly payment options if you would like to spread the cost. The quickest way to a firm number is a short conversation about your goals.
Do you work with businesses outside Stratford-upon-Avon?
Yes. We are based in Warwick and work with businesses right across Warwickshire and the wider UK, including Stratford-upon-Avon, Wellesbourne, Henley-in-Arden, Warwick and beyond. Being close by simply means we can meet in person when it helps.
Can you improve my existing website instead of rebuilding it?
Often, yes, and we will always tell you honestly if that is the better option. For many Stratford businesses a website tune up fixes what is holding the current site back for far less than a full rebuild. Book a free audit and we will show you where the quick wins are.
Will my website work on mobile?
Always. Every site we build is optimised and tested across phones and tablets as standard, because most of your visitors will arrive on a mobile.
How long does a new website take?
It depends on the size of the site and how quickly the content comes together, but most projects run to a few weeks rather than months. We will give you a realistic timeline before we start.
