Web design for Rossendale businesses.
From our studio in nearby Ramsbottom, we design and build websites for businesses across the Rossendale Valley. No themes and no page builders: a site made around your customers, and built to be found on Google and by AI assistants.
Local studio
Next door, not a long way off.
May & Co. is based in Ramsbottom, in the Irwell Valley between Bury and Rossendale, so you work with people who know the area and the customers in it.
We can photograph your premises, your team or your products too, so your new site launches with real images of your business instead of stock. Our web design service is the same wherever you are. What changes here is that we know the valley.
What you get
Built to be found locally.
Every site from our studio is custom-coded and made to measure. Here is what that means for a business in Rossendale.
Made around your customers
Designed from a blank page for the people who actually buy from you, whether that’s walk-ins in Rawtenstall or enquiries from the next valley.
Phone first
Many local searches happen on a phone, often on the move, so every page is designed and tested on real handsets first.
Found locally
Titles, headings and structured data that name the towns you serve, so Google understands where you work as well as what you do.
Fast on a phone signal
Light pages and properly sized images, so your site loads quickly on mobile data and not just on office Wi-Fi.
Accessible
Built to WCAG 2.2 AA, so every customer can read it and use it, with a keyboard or a screen reader if they need to.
Yours to keep
You own the design, the code and the domain. No theme to update, no builder subscription, no lock-in.

And next door in Ramsbottom, Bury and Tottington. If you’re a tradesperson, café, shop, clinic or small firm and your customers search for you by town, this is the kind of site we build. Want to be found in the map results too? See our Local SEO service.
