“WebAnts built our Shopify store exactly the way we imagined, then made it better. The subscription mechanic alone paid for the project in month one.”

For most UK small businesses, a custom WordPress website costs between £2,500 and £8,000 depending on scope. Shopify e-commerce stores typically run £4,000–£12,000. Custom Next.js builds for SaaS or complex web apps start at £8,000 and scale up. WebAnts gives you a flat written quote after a free 30-minute discovery call, no estimates, no surprises.
A focused marketing or landing site takes 2–4 weeks at WebAnts. A full WordPress build runs 4–6 weeks. Shopify e-commerce projects run 3–5 weeks. Custom web applications take 6–12 weeks. Our average delivery is 1.8× faster than the UK industry average, which is somewhere between 8 and 16 weeks for the same scope.
No. WebAnts does not require a deposit. You pay against agreed milestones, design approval, development handover, launch, so you only ever pay for work you can see. This puts the risk on us, where it should be when we're the experts.
No. WebAnts is based in London but we work with clients across the UK and 14 countries internationally. Our discovery process happens over video, our delivery is async, and we've never had a project blocked by location.
Yes. Every redesign project at WebAnts starts with an SEO audit of your current site so we can preserve every URL, redirect, and ranking signal that's currently earning traffic. We also bake AIEO into every redesign, so your site gets cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews going forward.
SEO ranks you in traditional search engines like Google. AIEO (AI Engine Optimisation) gets you cited inside answers from ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google's AI Overviews. By 2026, ~30% of UK B2B research happens inside AI assistants before users ever click a search result. WebAnts optimises for both.
