Web design in Pretoria, for firms that get looked up first.
Seven Pretoria businesses have their site from us, and two of them are regulated practices, an accounting firm and a medical practice group. In that market a website has to survive being checked, not be clever.
What does a Pretoria website have to do?
Usually confirm a recommendation rather than create one. Professional work here still moves on referral, but the person who was referred looks you up before they phone. The website is the checkpoint, and a surprising number of firms lose people at it without ever knowing.
What's different about the Pretoria market?
It buys more slowly and checks more carefully than Johannesburg does. Practices, consultancies and suppliers to government make up a lot of the local economy, and all three sell to people who verify before they commit rather than click before they think.
Which parts of Pretoria do you cover?
The whole of Tshwane, Pretoria East, Centurion and the corridor, and the city and northern suburbs. We're in Boksburg, which is the same province and under an hour away, though almost everything runs remotely regardless.
Who have you built for in Pretoria?
Eight businesses, and every one of them is live right now, open them and judge for yourself rather than taking our word for it. Two regulated practices in Double M Accountants and Double M MedPrac Solutions; two online stores in Rubida and Kids Care; Toerbroers in travel and training; the Altitude Oasis retreat; and PTPC in outdoor advertising.
Which services suit a Pretoria business?
For a practice, the website and then the map listing, in that order. For the stores it is the other way round more often than not. Whichever way it runs, the prices below are the published ones and they don't change by city.
Questions from Pretoria businesses.
All our work comes from referral. Do we even need a website?
You need one precisely because the work comes from referral. Nobody acts on a recommendation without looking the name up first, so the site is not there to find you clients, it is there to stop you losing the ones you have already been given. That is a much easier job, and most firms are still failing it.
Can the site be in Afrikaans and English?
Yes, and in Pretoria it is worth considering. We build the structure so both versions have their own pages and both get indexed properly, rather than a translate widget that search engines ignore. The wording itself comes from you in both languages, we do not write website copy, which is why it costs what it costs.
Our profession has rules about what we may advertise. How does that work?
The rules are yours to know and we will not pretend otherwise. What we do is build to what you sign off: nothing goes live that you have not read, we do not invent claims, testimonials or statistics to fill space, and if a page needs a disclaimer you tell us and it goes on. Three of the Pretoria sites we built are regulated practices, so this is a normal conversation for us.
Will you come out to Pretoria for a meeting?
If it genuinely helps, yes, we are in Boksburg, same province, under an hour away. In practice almost nobody asks. Everything runs on calls and staging links, and a meeting mostly costs you the morning without changing what gets built.
Do you only do professional firms, or online stores as well?
Both, and in Pretoria the split is roughly even. Alongside the accountants and medical practice group there are two online stores, a travel agency and college, a retreat and an outdoor advertising business. All eight are listed above with links, so you can see the range rather than read about it.
What does a website cost in Pretoria?
From R3 000 once-off, or R549 a month if you would rather spread it, and from R7 000 for a store. Those are the same figures every other client pays, published in full so you can check them before anyone phones you back. The pricing page has the tiers, and the instant quote tool will do the sums for your own project.
