Website design in Colchester.
Kilij is a web team based in Colchester. We design and build WordPress websites that load quickly on a phone, carry your search rankings across from the old site, and are ready for the search work that follows.
A fast site on the phone in your customer's hand.
Most people look up a local business on their phone, and a slow page loses them before it has finished loading. We build every site in code on WordPress, without a visual page builder, so each page ships only the styles and scripts it uses.
The result shows in the scores. All seven client sites we build and run reach 95 or more for performance on Google Lighthouse, on mobile and on desktop.
Colchester became a city in 2022, and its businesses run from the town centre out to Wivenhoe, Tiptree and West Mersea. We are in Stanway, so meeting at your premises to plan the site is easy to arrange.
What a Colchester website build includes.
- Design from your own material
- Pages laid out around your products, photographs and wording, with copy written in plain British English for the people who buy from you.
- WordPress, built in code
- A Bedrock and Sage build with no Elementor, Bricks or WPBakery. Pages and posts are still edited in WordPress as usual.
- Old addresses redirected
- Every URL on your current site mapped to its new page with a single 301, so the rankings and links it has earned carry across.
- Search set up at launch
- Titles, meta descriptions, structured data and a sitemap in place on day one, with Google Search Console connected.
- Cookie consent done properly
- Analytics and ad tags run under Google Consent Mode v2, so nothing tracks a visitor before they accept.
A slow site, rebuilt.
2EP Yapı is an epoxy and terrazzo flooring contractor in Ankara. Its old site took 6.3 seconds to load on mobile and weighed 4.7MB. The site we built, live in Turkish and English since October 2026, loads in 2.7 seconds at 0.8MB, and all 19 old addresses redirect to their new pages.
Questions, answered.
How long does a new website take? +
Most websites take weeks rather than months. The timing depends mainly on how many pages there are and how quickly the content comes together.
Can you redesign my site without losing its Google rankings? +
Yes. We list every address your current site has, map each one to its new page with a single 301 redirect, and check them on the live site after the switch.
Do you use page builders such as Elementor or Divi? +
No. We build in code on WordPress using Bedrock and Sage. Pages load faster and layouts hold still while they load, and you still edit your pages and posts in WordPress.
Can we meet in person? +
Yes. We are based in Stanway, Colchester, and can come to you anywhere in the city. A video call works too.
What happens after the site goes live? +
We run the sites we build. Most clients go on to search work with us: articles published on a schedule, technical fixes and reports from Google Search Console.
