Web design in Ayrshire, from a designer based in Ayr
GreenOrb Web Design builds websites for small and medium-sized businesses across Ayrshire. We’re based in Ayr, and we’ve been making websites since 2008.
We work with businesses in Ayr, Prestwick, Troon, Kilmarnock, Irvine, Girvan and the towns in between, and with clients elsewhere in the UK.
What we build
Websites for local businesses
Most businesses need a site that explains what they do, shows their work and makes it easy to get in touch. We build on WordPress with the Divi theme. Once the site is live, we show you how to change the text and photos yourself.
Online shops
We build shops with WooCommerce: product pages, a secure checkout and payments. Swim Spas Scotland sells its chemicals, filters and accessories online through a site we built.
Redesigns
If your site looks dated or is hard to update, we can rebuild it. We take a full backup of the old site before anything changes.
Search engine set-up
Every site gets page titles and descriptions, clear headings, image descriptions and an XML sitemap submitted to Google. The details are on our Online SEO Strategy page.
Looking after it afterwards
For the first 30 days after launch, we deal with any problems that come up. After that, you can choose a monthly plan: hosting only, Care with updates and fixes, or Care + Changes with small content changes each month. See the prices below.
“I would like to say thank you very much for your attention and excellent service throughout the process, I will highly recommend you to anyone I meet who requires help and advice or web design in the future.”
Steve, Ductbrite Ventilation Services
Prices
Fixed prices, agreed before any work starts. There is no VAT to add.
| Website | Price |
|---|---|
| One-page site | from £450 |
| Small business site, up to 5 pages | from £950 |
| Larger site, up to 12 pages | from £1,750 |
| Online shop (WooCommerce) | from £2,500 |
Every site includes:
- the contact form set up and tested, so messages arrive in your inbox
- a privacy policy
- page titles and descriptions for Google
- your Google Business Profile linked to the site
How it works:
- You own it. The domain is registered in your name, you get your own login, and if you ever move to another designer, we hand everything over.
- Pay in two halves or in instalments. Pay 50% to start and 50% at launch, or spread the cost over three to six monthly payments with no interest.
- Delivery depends on the size of the site. We’ll give you a date with your quote, counted from when we have your words and photos.
After launch, you choose how much help you want:
| Plan | Price | What’s included |
|---|---|---|
| Hosting | £15 a month | Hosting, SSL and backups |
| Care | £50 a month | Hosting, plus WordPress, plugin and Divi updates, and any fault fixed however long it takes |
| Care + Changes | £70 a month | Everything in Care, plus up to three small changes a month, such as new text, photos or prices |
Pay for a year up front and you get 12 months for the price of 10. New pages, new features and redesigns are quoted separately.

Why choose a web designer in Ayrshire?
You can meet us. The first meeting can be face to face or on a video call, whichever suits you. After that you deal directly with Phillip, who builds the site, by phone or email, Monday to Friday, 10am to 5pm.
How a project runs
Every project follows the same six steps, and you’re involved at each one.
- Discovery and requirements: a first meeting and a questionnaire about your business, customers and goals.
- Design and planning: a sitemap, wireframes and mock-ups for you to review before building starts.
- Online SEO strategy: keyword research and the on-page set-up.
- Development: building the site on WordPress so it works on phones, tablets and desktops.
- Testing and quality assurance: forms, links, speed and screen sizes checked before launch.
- Deployment and launch: a backup of any old site, the move to the live server, then training on how to update your new one.
Recent work

A one-page site starts at £450, a site of up to five pages at £950, and an online shop at £2,500. The final price depends on how many pages you need and what the site has to do. You get a fixed price at the start, before any work begins, and there is no VAT to add.

Do you only work with Ayrshire businesses?
No. We’re based in Ayr and work with businesses across the UK.
