Straightforward Web Design for Busy Small Business Owners Without The Cost
Since 2012, we've been helping small businesses transition from unfinished websites to automated growth engines.
Our Mission
Too many small business owners waste their weekends wrestling with DIY website builders, only to end up with a site that looks unprofessional and fails to generate leads. We believe your website should work as hard as you do.
Our mission is to democratize high-end web design and marketing automation. Through our Starter, Professional and Business plans, we provide enterprise-level digital infrastructure at a price point accessible to local businesses.
The Old Way
- High upfront costs (£2000+)
- You write your own copy
- Hidden maintenance fees
- Outdated within a year
- No lead generation strategy
The Forte Way
- Simple monthly pricing
- Professional copywriting included
- Fully managed hosting & updates
- Evolves with your business
- Built to convert visitors to leads
Hang On, What About You? Can You Fix My Problem?
What started as a side skill soon became a career, fuelled by his love of making things work smarter. After earning a degree in Applied Geography, Robert spent his early career in GIS roles for Welsh Water and Cardiff Council, before moving into digital marketing at the University of Glamorgan.
In 2012, he co-founded Forte Web Solutions with one goal: help small businesses get more leads and keep them. These days, Robert focuses on creating customer journeys and automated systems that feel personal, timely, and effortless for clients. He's happiest when the technology fades into the background and clients can simply get on with their day.
