What We Do
Everything a great website needs, nothing it doesn't.
From the first conversation to launch day, we cover everything — design, development, SEO, mobile, and beyond. No juggling multiple agencies or freelancers.
Great Design
Every site is designed from scratch for your brand — not from a template. Distinctive, refined, and built to make an impression.
Mobile Responsive
Flawless on every screen. We design and test across phones, tablets, and desktops so your site always looks its best.
Easy to Use
Your customers shouldn't need a manual. We design for intuitive, frictionless experiences that guide visitors to take action.
Considerate
We take the time to understand your business, your customers, and your goals before writing a single line of code.
SEO Optimised
Built to be found. SEO best practices are woven into the fabric of every site we build — from metadata to site speed.
Hosting Guidance
As an IONOS official partner, we'll guide you to the right hosting solution for your budget and needs, with no confusion.
Introducing — Launchpad
A custom website. Zero build fee.
We design and build your single-page website with no build fee — a genuine custom design, not a template. You pay just £20/month for fully managed hosting, with no setup charge and no surprise invoices. We tell you exactly what you'll pay before a single pixel is touched.
The 12-month minimum is what makes the free build possible — it lets us invest the time properly without charging you upfront.
01
£0 to get started
No design fee, no build fee. The 12-month hosting plan at £20/month is what makes it possible — we invest the time, you get the site.
02
Custom design, not a template
Every Launchpad site is built from scratch. Your brand, your content, your look — designed properly from day one.
03
A real starting point, not a ceiling
One page and a contact form is all most new businesses need to look credible and start getting enquiries. When you're ready for more, upgrading is simple.

About David
Crafted by an expert, built for you.
I'm David Boland, founder of mk1studios. Based in East Yorkshire, I've been designing and building websites for over 20 years — long enough to know what actually works.
I work directly with every client. There are no account managers or handoffs here — just an experienced developer who genuinely cares about your business and is invested in your success.
Whether you're a new business needing your first website, or an established company ready for a refresh, I'll bring the same level of care and craft to your project.
