Ascent Digital UK is a small, founder-led web design business near Ashby de la Zouch. I’m Scott, and I build every website myself, for businesses close to home and anywhere in the UK. You see a free working example before you pay anything.
I started Ascent Digital UK because too many good local businesses were losing work to a weak website, or no website at all. I run the business myself and I build every site personally. There are no account managers and no hand-offs. The person you speak to on day one is the person who builds your site and looks after it afterwards.
I like to keep things simple. I reply when I say I will, I do what I said I would, and if something is not worth your money, I will tell you.
Before this I worked in a few different jobs, and today I also co-own a Chartered accountancy practice. I’m used to working alongside other businesses, and I know a website has to earn its keep. So I talk about enquiries, not page counts.
I’m based near Ashby de la Zouch and work from Ashby some days each week, so if you’re in Ashby, Coalville, Long Eaton or nearby, we can meet in person. Most of the work happens by phone, email and video call, though, so I build websites for businesses anywhere in the UK.
Every site starts with your customers, not a template. Here is what happens, in order.
I look at what local customers actually type into Google for your trade and the towns you cover.
I build a working example of your site from your own reviews, photos, services and towns.
Wording, photos, layout, colours. You tell me what to change until you are happy with it.
Once you approve it, your site is normally live within a week, on a domain in your name.
No small print to decode. This is what you get, and what it costs.
I would rather show you real numbers than tell you how good I am. Here is one local example, measured in Google Search Console.
An accountancy firm near Ashby. After its website was rebuilt, its clicks from Google rose to about 5.5 times what they were before. The full write-up, with sources, is on the case studies page.

Tell me about your business and I will build a free working example of your new website. If you like it, I put it live. If not, there is nothing to pay.
