Web Design in Kirkcaldy and Central Fife
Written, built, hosted and maintained for one monthly figure from £74, so the website is somebody else's job to keep running rather than yours.
- Designed, written and built for you
- Hosting, security and updates included
- Talk to a real person, not a ticket system
- Rolling monthly, leave whenever you like
These are the businesses we work with
Real websites we've built and still look after, for trades, professionals and independent businesses across the UK.
Kirkcaldy web design for the towns along the Fife coast
Kirkcaldy is the biggest town in Fife and serves a string of coastal places along with it, from Kinghorn and Burntisland on one side to Leven and the East Neuk villages further round. Plenty of local businesses work along that whole stretch rather than in one town.
The high street here has had a hard decade, which has pushed more trade online than used to be the case. For an independent that cuts both ways: the shop window matters less than it did, and the website matters a great deal more, because that is now where people decide whether you are still going and still worth the trip.
We are based in Cardiff and work with Fife clients by phone, email and video call, with a preview link so nothing goes live until you have seen it.
You can compare the three plans on our pricing page. If you just need something simple online quickly, see our quick, low cost option.
Central Fife businesses we build websites for
Independent shops and services
High street businesses that need to show they are open, current and worth travelling to.
Trades along the coast
Joiners, electricians, plumbers and roofers covering Kirkcaldy, Glenrothes, Leven, Burntisland and Kinghorn.
Hospitality and food businesses
Cafes, takeaways and small hotels needing menus, hours and booking links that are never out of date.
Local professional services
Accountants, advisers and clinics serving central Fife who need to look established before anyone rings.
Four problems we built the plans around
Small firms kept telling us the same things about their last website. These are the ones that came up again and again.
Too much money on day one
Rather than £2,000 or more before you start, you pay one fixed monthly amount covering the build and the upkeep.
Nobody picks up the phone
No call centre, no chatbot gate. Ring 029 2167 1825 or send the form and a person replies within one working day.
Months of silence mid build
A clear process and a realistic date, with most sites going live inside a fortnight of us having your words and photos.
Tied in for a year or more
Plans run month to month with no fixed term and no exit fee, so we have to keep earning it.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about web design in Kirkcaldy.
Can a website really help a high street business in Kirkcaldy?+
It tends to be the thing that decides whether someone makes the trip. People check opening hours, look at recent photos and read a couple of reviews before they set off. A site that looks abandoned does more damage than no site at all.
What does a Kirkcaldy website cost?+
Starter is £74 a month, Professional £249 and Business £649. There is no build invoice, and your domain, hosting, SSL, security and support sit inside the monthly price.
What happens to my site if I stop paying?+
We give you the website files and transfer the domain to you. What stops is the service around it: the hosting, the patching and the support.
How long does the build take?+
Most sites go live inside a fortnight once we have what we need from you. A simple one page site can be quicker.
Do you cover Glenrothes, Leven and Burntisland?+
Yes. We work with businesses in Kirkcaldy, Glenrothes, Leven, Burntisland, Kinghorn, Buckhaven and across central Fife.
Can I stop if it is not working?+
Yes. Every plan runs month to month with no fixed term, so if it stops being worth it there is nothing extra to pay.
You are in Cardiff. Does that matter?+
Not in practice. We work with clients right across Scotland by phone, email and video call, and you get a reply within one working day either way.
