Web design in Woking, without the agency invoice.
Woking businesses serve a much wider area than the town centre alone. I build fast, search-friendly websites that help customers across Horsell, Knaphill, Byfleet and beyond find you, trust you and get in touch. No agency overhead, and the site stays yours.

For growing businesses in and around Woking
I'm Federica, a one-person web design studio based in Surrey, just up the road from Woking. I work with established local businesses at a turning point: the salon that's outgrown its first premises, the clinic taking on more practitioners, the trade going from a van to a team. You've proven the model, and now you need a website that matches where you're headed, not where you started.
Woking is a busy commuter town, so a lot of your customers are searching on their phones between trains. That's exactly what I build for: fast, mobile-first sites that show up when someone nearby looks for what you do. Most of the work happens remotely, but these areas are all on my patch:
- Woking town centre
- Horsell
- Knaphill
- Byfleet
- West Byfleet
- Pyrford
- Old Woking
- Goldsworth Park
- Brookwood
- Send
- Mayford
- Sheerwater
Based a little further out? I cover the whole of Surrey.
Why this is better value than an agency
A big chunk of an agency bill goes on offices, project managers and account managers, the layer of people sitting between you and whoever builds the thing. None of that ends up in your website.
With me, you work directly with the person designing and coding it. The operations layer an agency hires people for, I run with my own automation, so my time goes into the parts that move the needle: building the site and understanding what your business needs. Same quality you'd get from a good agency, and you're not footing the bill for anyone's overheads.
Common questions
What does web design cost?
Price depends on what you need and the scope of the site. Every project gets a custom quote based on page count, features, and complexity. You'll see a firm figure before we start, not a hidden bill at the end. I work to project budgets, not generic pricing bands.
Do you work with Woking businesses in person?
I'm based in Surrey, so Woking is on my doorstep and I'm happy to meet for a coffee in the town centre or nearby. Most of the work then happens remotely, which keeps things quick and keeps your costs down. You get the local contact without paying for a city-centre office.
Should I hire a freelancer or an agency?
For a growing Woking business that needs a clean, fast site bringing in enquiries, a freelancer is usually better value and far less hassle. You deal directly with the person building your site, not a project manager passing messages along. Agencies earn their keep once you need a large team or a brand built from scratch.
I'm stuck on Wix or Squarespace. Can you move me off it?
Yes. I'll move you onto a faster, custom site and protect your content and search rankings on the way over. Afterwards you own the domain, the hosting, and the site itself, so you're never locked into monthly builder fees again.
How long does it take?
A brochure site is usually 2–4 weeks from deposit to launch, depending on how quickly you can get me your content. I'll give you a firm date before we start, not a vague window.
