One page websites

We offer one page websites as a service. It’s a service we love, because it allows us to do one page really well. We design a unique, usable, beautiful one page site, exclusively for your business. It’s our alternative to the template based offerings that seem to be popular these days.

One page sites are some of my favourite projects and clients always love them, even though they’re hesitant at first. “Well these other guys said they’d give me up to six pages, so surely you can do better than one?” When you explain the benefits of one good page, vs four weak ones, and when they realise they now need less content, they realise it makes sense.

If you’re not trading online, visitors want one of two things. They want your contact details, or information about your product/service. A one page website prioritises accordingly.

“About Us” pages become paragraphs, sometimes even sentences. It forces you to explain clearly what your message is. (Still a problem these days). “Contact Us” is reduced to your email, phone number and address.

Products and services are pushed to the front. After all, they’re what your business is about. Sitemaps disappear. The search box is replaced with Ctrl + F. You don’t have to worry about visitors getting lost in your site. They’re already on the only page that matters.

If your company needs a respectable web presence, but nothing more, build a one page site. You can always add to it later if you need to, but I’m betting you won’t.
