Feedback from businesses we’ve worked with across Manchester and the UK.
“Our new website has completely changed how customers see our business. It feels premium, loads quickly and we’ve had a steady increase in enquiries since it launched.”
“We originally contacted them for a website refresh, but their ideas were so good that we ended up updating the whole brand. Very pleased with the outcome.”
“Such an easy company to work with. They understood our requirements quickly and delivered a website that feels perfectly suited to our customers.”
“We are now showing at number one on Google for one of our important local searches. That has brought a noticeable increase in calls and website leads.”
“Our old site was doing absolutely nothing for us. The new one is bringing in enquiries every week and looks a hundred times better.”

“Traffic to our website has grown considerably since the changes were made. We’re also seeing visitors stay on the site longer and contact us more often.”
“Excellent attention to detail. Even the small things we hadn’t considered were picked up and improved before launch.”

“We’ve had several new customers tell us they found us through Google and then contacted us through the new website. Great result.”

Everything you need to know about working with Hivebyte Technology, from websites and SEO to hosting, support and ongoing growth.
How long does it take to build a website?
Every project is different. A straightforward website will usually take around 6–8 weeks, while larger, bespoke or technically advanced projects may take longer. We agree the timeline with you before development begins.
Will my website be mobile-friendly?
Yes. Every website we build is responsive and designed to work properly across mobiles, tablets, laptops and desktop screens.
How much does a website cost?
Pricing depends on the size, functionality and requirements of the project. We provide a tailored quotation based on what your business actually needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.
Do you provide hosting and domain services?
Yes. We can provide website hosting and help manage your domain, giving you a simpler setup with everything handled in one place.
Can you help improve my Google visibility?
Yes. We provide SEO services designed to improve your website's search visibility, attract more relevant visitors and create more opportunities for enquiries and sales.
Do you manage Google, Facebook and Instagram advertising?
Yes. We can plan, manage and optimise paid advertising campaigns across major platforms including Google, Facebook and Instagram.
How do we communicate during the project?
We keep communication straightforward. Your team can stay in touch with us through a dedicated WhatsApp group and by phone, with regular updates throughout the design and development process.
Will I be able to update the website myself?
Yes. We build WordPress websites using user-friendly content management tools, allowing you to update text, images and other content without needing to understand code.
What is WordPress?
WordPress is a content management system that allows websites to be created, managed and updated through an easy-to-use administration area.
Do you offer ongoing support and maintenance?
Yes. We can continue to support, maintain, update and protect your website after launch so your digital presence stays secure and performing properly.
How long do I receive support?
Our standard support period is 12 months, with the option to extend your support and maintenance afterwards.
How do I get started?
Tell us about your business, your goals and what you want to achieve. We will talk through the project with you and recommend the best way forward.
