Does your small business need a website?

Yes! Your customers are already online –  searching, comparing, and choosing. If you’re relying on social media alone, you’re losing work before they even get in touch.

A professional website helps you get found online, build trust with potential customers, clearly show your services, and turn visitors into real enquiries.

If your business doesn’t have a website yet, or your current one isn’t bringing in enquiries, you could be missing out on customers every day. Having a website for small business use helps you stand out from competitors and gives your business a more professional presence.

Based in Petworth, West Sussex we cover the local area including Haslemere, Midhurst, Pulborough, Storrington and Billingshurst offering affordable web design for local trades and services, check out some of our latest reviews!

I feel so lucky, and a little smug, to have found Hannah. From start to finish, the service was amazing. Being a bit of a technophobe, I was nervous about creating my own website. Hannah understood my vision perfectly and designed a professional website that feels completely me. I am over the moon by the finished product. It looks better than I could have hoped for. It is a clean and simple design and easy to navigate. It captures what I have to offer without being chaotic or clumsy. Hannah thought about everything, right down to choice of font, something that wouldn't have crossed my mind. The logo is an added bonus and looks beautiful. Hannah is absolute gem. She was hugely supportive and patient, answering my endless questions, and never pushing or nagging when life got in the way of my decision making. She went above and beyond her remit, gently guiding me through the whole process and sending clear instructions when I wanted to branch out a little further with Google Forms and a Google Business Profile. Not only do I have a fabulous website but I feel more confident and capable as a result. Hannah has the ability to make you feel special but I think she is like that with every client she works with. I would not hesitate to recommend Gift of the Gab Web Design to anyone looking for website design, or even just looking for a chat! Thank you so much Hannah, I am so grateful to you. It was the best money I ever spent.

Hannah designed such a beautiful bakery website for me! The whole process was so quick, easy and stress free. My website is now so easy for my customers to see exactly what I do and it’s so beautifully presented. Thanks you so much gift of the gab! X

When I realised recently that my business website was tired, outdated due to a branding change and REALLY not working for me my first thought was Gift of the Gab. Hannah and her team have done excellent work for several small businesses with whom I network so I was confident I was in VERY safe hands. GOTB don't TELL you what to put on your website, they delve deep to find the ethos, drive, personality and motivation behind the business. Hannah GOT me right off the bat, and we really had fun exchanging ideas, riffing off each other and elevating my new website into something that, while fun and funky, is also functional and professional. With a 20% increase in new enquiries after just one week. And more once we take the next step to SEO Optimisation! 👍🏼 Their care, attention to detail, imagination, professionalism and communication are top notch. I can't recommend highly enough. If YOU'RE an independent SME struggling to stand out you couldn't do better than engaging Gift of the Gab.

Hannah is absolutely amazing. She built our website from start to finish, and it has been one of the best things for our company. New customers are now able to access a very professional, easy‑to‑use site, and it’s made a real difference to our business. Whenever I ask Hannah for a new addition or update, she delivers it quickly and exactly how we need it. Her speed, skill, and attention to detail are outstanding. I would highly recommend Gift of the Gab to all of my contacts who are looking for a new website to increase their customer base.

If I could give 10 stars, I would! Working with Hannah and Maddie has been one of the best decisions I've made for my business. From the very beginning, they've been patient, knowledgeable, creative, and incredibly supportive. As a first-time author launching my website and online platform, I had a million questions and plenty of moments of panic, but they guided me through every step with kindness, professionalism, and endless patience. Nothing was ever too much trouble and they always took the time to explain things in a way I could understand (lots of screenshots!) The website they've created is stunning! It's beautiful, professional, and feels completely me. They've gone above and beyond to help bring my vision to life, often suggesting ideas and solutions I would never have thought of myself. What really sets them apart is how much they genuinely care about their clients and their projects. You never feel like just another customer. They celebrate your wins, help solve your problems, and make the whole process feel exciting rather than overwhelming. I honestly couldn't have launched my author brand without them, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for website design. Thank you both for everything you've done. You've been absolutely incredible. ❤️ Oh, and I fully intend to invent every website emergency imaginable just so I can book more SOS sessions with you both. 😂

The Gab Turns 9

How The Gab Started

Gift of the Gab Web Design began back in 2017, almost by accident.

At the time, I was running social media advertising for our family groundworks business and needed a website to support it. I built one myself and before long other local businesses started asking who had created it. Soon after that, they began asking if I could build one for them too.

What started as a simple solution for our own business quickly grew through word of mouth. Over the years we’ve created hundreds of websites for small businesses, both locally and across the UK. The focus has always been on creating practical, professional websites that genuinely help businesses grow online without unnecessary jargon or complications.

Jason has always been part of the business behind the scenes as my business partner and biggest support, although thankfully nowhere near the actual web design side of things. He’s far more useful for practical support, keeping me sane, lifting heavy things, and the occasional jokingly referred to “debt collection department” when invoices need chasing.

In 2021, Maddie joined the business after returning from university, bringing fresh creativity, ideas, and another pair of hands into what had already become a proper family business. Based in Wales together with her wife Lucy and their two furbabies, Maddie brings a huge amount of creativity into the Gab and has a real eye for design, branding, and the finer details that make a website feel personal to a client. Outside of work she’s passionate about art, reading, crafting, and exploring the Welsh countryside, and that creative mindset naturally filters into the work we produce together every day.

A Small Family Business

Gift of the Gab has always been built around real life.

Alongside running the business, I’m also the main carer for my autistic daughter, so flexibility has always been essential. Some days the office is a desk, some days it’s the school car park, and sometimes it’s the sofa with a coffee trying to answer emails before dinner burns.

Jason works very much behind the scenes but has been a huge support throughout the journey, helping keep everything running while Maddie and I focus on the creative side of the business.

Between us, the Gab has grown into something we’re incredibly proud of.

Here’s to the next chapter of the Gab.
