About SAE Web Design

Over 20 years of building websites that move with the web

SAE Web Design has been building websites for businesses for more than two decades, from early hand-coded sites to mobile-ready websites and the custom booking systems many businesses now need.

OUR STORY

Practical websites, long before 'mobile-first' became a buzzword

We started building websites when the web was a very different place. As mobile phones became the way people searched, browsed and made enquiries, we were one of the early web design businesses focusing on truly mobile-ready websites rather than desktop sites squeezed onto smaller screens.

That practical mindset still shapes the work today. A website should look good, but it also needs to be easy to read, easy to use and built around what customers actually need to do.

Built on reputation

Most of our work comes from word of mouth

We have never relied on heavy advertising. Clients recommend us because the work is personal, practical and focused on what helps their business day to day.

Personal service

You are not passed between departments. You can expect a prompt, personal reply from someone who understands the project.

Long-term clients

Many projects come from existing clients, referrals and businesses who need their website to grow as their services change.

No bloated process

We are not a large agency. That keeps communication direct, decisions quicker and the whole process easier to manage.

Why booking systems?

Our focus shifted because clients needed more than brochure websites

As more businesses needed customers to book online, pay deposits, complete forms, receive reminders and manage details, we developed a stronger speciality in custom booking systems.

How we work

Small team, careful thinking and websites built around real use

1
We listen first

Before suggesting pages or features, we look at what your customers need, what your team needs to manage and where the current process causes friction.

2
We keep things clear

The aim is not to overcomplicate the website. It should explain the business well, guide visitors naturally and make the next step obvious.

3
We stay practical

Whether it is a simple website or a full booking system, the finished build should be something your business can actually use day to day.
