Data-driven design and build services that get results

Design is about more than how things look. It is also about how they are used. A good website or digital product needs to look great and provide a positive user experience. It must also be intuitive and meet the visitor’s needs.
 
We are a data-driven design and build agency. We create beautiful, high-performance websites and digital products that get brilliant results. Our intelligent automation software, Apollo Insights, uses artificial intelligence and gives our designers powerful insights. We learn what’s working on your existing site and identify new opportunities. This means we can ensure we make decisions based on evidence rather than guesswork.

Our latest web design and build projects

I have been working with the team at Vertical Leap for the past year. We have created and launched a new website which, in just a matter of weeks started delivering excellent results. The team are professional, extremely knowledgeable and fun to work with.

Vertical leap are a great company - very easy to deal with and provide good customer support by making the complex task of building a web-site pain free. They do understand that not everybody (like me) understands IT and have a good way of guiding the customer through this process. Now up and running we have seen a large increase in traffic to our site with increase bookings compared to this period last year. so far so good. Great post launch support too and are always on-hand if I have a question. If you are thinking of building a new site I would recommend talking to Vertical leap
Flying Fish

Help for Heroes
We were overwhelmed by the success of the campaign, the communication from the team at Vertical Leap was excellent. They really know their stuff and reached more people than we ever thought possible. We saw a massive spike in ticket sales after the campaign went live, we were tracking way ahead of last year’s sales throughout the campaign, so massive thank you for your work, we are VERY happy.

Mitchells and Butlers engaged with the Vertical Leap SEO team to grow search visibility for 350+ restaurants. They've achieved the goals we set and we’ve since expanded the services they provide to include many more of our brands.

Guests are at the centre of what we do, so creating a website which is easily discoverable in search engines is a high priority for us. Vertical Leap partnered with us to overcome the scale of our website and provide a better online guest experience for the thousands of guests that holiday with us every year. Vertical Leap is a valued partner, and we are proud of our ongoing relationship.

Better visibility means better performance

Better visibility means better performance

User behaviour and preferences evolve; so should your website. We use Apollo Insights, to monitor the performance of your website. We track the entire user journey to identify things like:

  • Which pages are getting found in search results
  • Which areas of the website lose the most visitors
  • Which conversion paths are the most effective
  • Which pages have the highest bounce rate or engagement

This insight allows us to tweak the design to ensure that your website’s performance is continually improving.

 

User experience drives good design

Our design and build teams understand user requirements, organising options in a logical way and planning user journeys. Before we even think about how your digital product will look, we examine:

  • How it needs to work
  • Who are you targeting – user profiles, what you want them to do onsite
  • What are you trying to achieve (selling products, educating your audience, shop window)
  • How it will scale to size
  • How it will work across devices
  • How it will be shared
  • How it will suit the different media used by your customers
  • How will it be found

Gone are the days of designing different websites for different screen sizes. When our  design and build team builds your website they will do it once and it will work across desktop PCs, tablets and mobiles. We’ll build an SEO friendly, responsive website that will work across all devices.

Frequently asked questions

We don’t offer a set price on our design and build services. Every project is different and it depends on the scale of the project. If you’d like a bespoke price for your design and build project, contact us on 02392 830281 or [email protected].

Graphic design involves creating visual content to deliver a specific message or experience. For example, web design is a subcategory of graphic design. It also includes several other categories, such as icon design, typography and layout design.

UX stands for “user experience”. It describes the quality of the experience provided to users on digital platforms. UX design helps you create experiences to achieve specific goals. These include increasing website conversions or social media engagement.

Evidence-led design uses data to inform key design choices. It is based on real user actions instead of assumptions. We use big data to take the guesswork out of design with our software, Apollo Insights. We analyse the behaviour of users on your website and compare it against session data from other platforms. This allows us to identify the design opportunities that make the strongest positive impact.

Our design services cover everything you need to deliver your message:

  • Web design
  • Landing page design
  • UX design
  • Conversational UI
  • Social media ads
  • Brand design

However, design is so embedded into modern marketing that the services listed above don’t tell the full story. There are UX ranking factors in SEO, design improvements in conversion rate optimisation (CRO), the graphics of social media content and a key role for design in almost every marketing action.
