Web design and development Birmingham
Professional Web Design in Birmingham for Growing Businesses
1. Discovery & Consultation
Every successful website starts with understanding your business. We begin with an initial consultation, either at your premises, via Zoom or at our Derby office, to discuss your objectives, target audience and requirements. We take the time to understand what makes your business unique and identify how your website can help generate more enquiries, sales or leads.
2. Website Design
Once we have a clear understanding of your requirements, we move on to the design stage. Depending on your budget and objectives, this may involve a fully bespoke design created by our in-house graphic designers or a customised design built using professional design components. In both cases, the final design is tailored to your brand and business goals.
3. Website Development
After the design has been approved, our developers bring the website to life using WordPress and the latest web technologies. Every website is built to be fast, secure and fully responsive, ensuring it works perfectly across desktops, tablets and mobile devices. During development we also implement any required functionality, integrations and search engine optimisation best practices.
4. Testing & Launch
Before going live, we carry out comprehensive testing to ensure every aspect of the website functions correctly. We check performance, responsiveness, forms, integrations and compatibility across multiple devices and browsers. Once approved, we launch your website and ensure everything is operating smoothly.
5. Ongoing Support & Growth
Launching a website is just the beginning. We provide ongoing support, website hosting, maintenance and updates to keep your website secure and performing at its best. As your business grows, we can continue to develop your website with additional functionality, content and marketing support to help maximise your online success.
Local Business Case Studies
National Conference Centre – WordPress Website Design & Development Case Study
The National Conference Centre is located at the National Motorcycle Museum on Junction of the A45 and M42, right next to the NEC. They required a modern, conversion-focused website that would make it easier for users to explore their venue and enquire about bookings. A key objective was to improve the quality and volume of enquiries by simplifying the user journey and presenting venue information in a clear, structured way. The project was designed and developed entirely in-house using WordPress, ensuring full flexibility and long-term scalability.
A major feature of the build was a bespoke room finder, allowing users to quickly browse available spaces based on their event requirements. This functionality was developed to reduce friction in the decision-making process and help users find suitable rooms without needing to manually search through multiple pages. Alongside this, the site structure and content were carefully designed to guide visitors towards making an enquiry, improving overall usability and engagement.
The new website places a strong emphasis on conversions, with clear calls to action, streamlined navigation and a user-focused layout throughout. Since launch, the improved structure and functionality have made it easier for visitors to understand the venue’s offering and take the next step. By combining bespoke WordPress development with a conversion-led design approach, the National Conference Centre now has a website that supports both user experience and business growth.
Birmingham Philharmonic Orchestra (BPO) – Website & Digital Marketing Case Study
The Birmingham Philharmonic Orchestra required a digital presence that would allow it to compete more effectively for ticket sales in a market dominated by professional UK orchestras. The primary objective was to increase online conversions while reducing reliance on advertising spend, ensuring that more revenue could be generated directly through organic traffic and improved user engagement.
Devmac designed and developed a new WordPress website focused on clarity, usability and conversion optimisation. The site was structured to make it easy for visitors to browse upcoming performances, understand the orchestra’s offering and purchase tickets with minimal friction. Alongside the website build, a key focus was placed on improving content presentation and strengthening calls to action throughout the user journey.
Ongoing support has played a significant role in the project’s success, with weekly content updates helping to keep performances, news and announcements fresh and relevant. In addition, Devmac manages Meta (Facebook) advertising campaigns to support ticket sales and audience growth. This combined approach has led to a measurable increase in conversions while reducing overall ad spend, helping the orchestra reach wider audiences more efficiently and sustainably.
The Heath Bookshop – WordPress Ecommerce & Events Integration Case Study
The Heath Bookshop, an award-winning independent bookshop and winner of Independent Bookshop of the Year 2025, required a unified digital platform that could bring together multiple online systems into one seamless experience. The primary challenge was to integrate online book sales, audiobook links, and ticketed events into a single, easy-to-manage website that would support both commercial growth and community engagement.
Devmac designed and developed a bespoke WordPress solution using Bricks Builder, WooCommerce and EventPrime to consolidate the shop’s key digital functions. The new platform allows customers to purchase physical books online, access links to Libro.fm audiobooks, and book tickets for a busy calendar of weekly events including author talks, book signings and literary discussions with major international writers. This integration removed the need for multiple disconnected systems, creating a smoother experience for both customers and staff.
The result is a fully unified digital ecosystem that reflects the energy and reputation of the bookshop itself. With all core functions managed through a single WordPress installation, the team can now update products, events and content efficiently in one place. The improved user experience has made it easier for customers to discover events, support the bookshop and engage with its growing programme, strengthening both online sales and in-person attendance.
Moor Hall Hotel – Website Development Case Study
Moor Hall Hotel, a well-established hotel and leisure destination based in Sutton Coldfield, required a modern and flexible website to better showcase its accommodation, dining, weddings and events offering. The objective was to improve the overall user experience while making it easier for visitors to explore services and make enquiries across multiple departments.
Devmac worked closely with the client to design and develop a new website using the SilverStripe CMS, chosen for its flexibility and strong content management capabilities. The platform was structured to allow the hotel team to easily manage and update a wide range of content, from room details and restaurant menus to events and wedding packages. Careful attention was given to site structure and navigation to ensure users could quickly find relevant information and move smoothly through the booking and enquiry journey.
The result is a clean, user-friendly website that better reflects the quality of the hotel and its facilities. By improving content organisation and streamlining the user journey, the new site makes it easier for visitors to engage with key services and submit enquiries. The flexible CMS also provides the Moor Hall team with full control over their content, ensuring the website can evolve alongside the business and continue to support future growth.
