“I was beyond delighted with my new website it was so much better than I’d dared to imagine. Phil was a complete joy to work with too. Speedy, creative, professional and very tolerant of me flip flapping with my core messaging.”

Hannah U. Google review

“I have just used GreyPhox to help me design, develop and create the website for my business. Being a niche business it was important for me that all the content was presented in a way which identified with my clientele and from the first conversation I had with Phil, he understood that perfectly.

To say the results have completely exceeded my expectation is an understatement! From just the logo, some written content and images, Phil was able to create exactly what I had in mind, and his vast experience in maximising the design is evident in the results! I am very glad that I trusted Greyphox with such a critical part of my business with this website. If you are looking for bespoke, high quality website design with meticulous attention to detail, I could not recommend Greyphox any higher!”

Home turf for us

Bishop Auckland is home turf for us. We work from Bishop Auckland and Darlington, so when a business on Newgate Street or out in Shildon, Crook or West Auckland asks for a website, we can usually sit down with them in person, often the same week.

A town on the up

More visitors are looking you up online

With Auckland Castle and the Auckland Project drawing people into the town, and Kynren bringing crowds every summer, more people are searching for places to eat, stay and shop in Bishop Auckland than ever. Most of them are on a phone, and most of them decide within a few seconds whether your site looks worth the visit.

We build websites that load fast on a phone signal, show up in local searches and make the next step obvious, whether that’s booking a table, calling you or buying online.

What we do

Everything your website needs, from one local team

  • Bespoke websites designed around your business, not a template, and easy for you to update yourself.
  • Local SEO so you show up for “near me” searches and in the Google map results around Bishop Auckland, with your Google Business Profile set up properly.
  • Online shops for local makers and retailers who want to sell beyond the town, with payments, delivery and stock handled.
  • Hosting, email and care so your site stays fast, secure and backed up, with a real person to call when you need something changed.

We also look after web design, online shops, SEO, hosting and email, social media and paid search, so you don’t have to juggle three different suppliers.

Around the area

Covering Bishop Auckland and the surrounding villages

As well as the town itself, we work with businesses in Shildon, West Auckland, Spennymoor, Crook, Willington, Coundon and Newton Aycliffe, and across the rest of County Durham.

Questions

Web design in Bishop Auckland: common questions

Do you meet clients in person in Bishop Auckland?

Yes. We’re based locally, so we’re happy to meet at your premises or somewhere in town to talk through your project, as well as by phone or video call.

How long does a new website take?

Most small business websites take a few weeks from the first conversation to going live, depending on how much content you already have. We’ll give you a clear timeline before we start.

Can you help us show up on Google Maps?

Yes. We set up and tidy your Google Business Profile, make sure your details match across the web and build your site so Google understands where you are and what you do.

Will I be able to update the website myself?

Yes. We build sites that you can edit without any technical knowledge, and we’ll show you how. If you’d rather we handled updates, our care plans cover that too.
