Web Design in Somerset
Somerset is our home county. We're based in Bath, and the businesses we build for here are our neighbours: trades and construction firms, independents, food and creative businesses, professional services. What they need from a website is simple to say and hard to do well: be found, look credible, win the enquiry.
We're Mission Systems, an award-winning web design agency in Bath, building hand-coded websites for small businesses across Somerset, from the city on our doorstep to the towns around it.
Websites from £0 up front and £100 + VAT per month, with design, build, hosting, updates and support all included. Prefer to pay once and own the build outright? There's a one-off option too.
Somerset towns we serve
Every place below has its own page with genuinely local detail: who we build for there, how close we are, and answers to the questions those businesses actually ask. And the grid isn't the boundary; wherever your Somerset business is based, the package, the pricing and the support are identical.
The Four Fundamentals Every Small Business Website Needs
We don't add fancy features. We don't complicate things with unnecessary tech. We build small business websites that actually win customers, by focusing on the four things that determine whether visitors stay or leave.
Discoverable by Design
Sarah searches, Sarah finds you. We build SEO into your site's DNA, making sure you appear when customers need you most.
Lightning-Fast Speed
Emma doesn't wait - and neither do your customers. Your site will load instantly on any device, keeping visitors engaged from the first click.
Perfect on Every Device
Desktop at work, tablet on the couch, phone on the street. Your site automatically adapts, looking professional and working perfectly no matter how customers find you.
Designed to Convert
Marcus needs transparent pricing. David needs proof he can trust you. Priya needs clear navigation. We craft every element to answer questions, build confidence, and turn visitors into customers.
The Website Design Technology Behind Your Success
Those four fundamentals aren't just nice ideas - they're baked into our technology.
We developed our own website design platform because existing solutions couldn't deliver all four consistently for small businesses who need results, not complexity. WordPress sites average 35/100 on PageSpeed. Wix sites struggle with SEO. Squarespace limits customisation. Every one of them makes getting a site online easy, and that was never the hard part: being found, earning trust and winning the enquiry is the work that's left to you.
Our platform? Minimum performance scores of 95/100. Top 1% performance globally. Built-in SEO architecture. Perfect responsive behavior. Every time.
This isn’t about being tech nerds. It’s about giving your business an unfair advantage online through speed, clarity, and sustainable growth without paying agency-level prices.

Questions about Web Design in Somerset, answered
Our small business package is £0 up front and £100 + VAT per month, with a twelve-month minimum. Design, build, hosting, unlimited updates and support are all included, and there are no hidden fees. If you'd rather pay once, the same site is £2,500 + VAT. Custom projects are quoted individually.
A five-page website designed, written and built for you, then looked after: hosting, unlimited updates, 24/7 support, and the SEO essentials done properly. We also set up your Google Business Profile and configure it for you. Extra pages can be added as your business grows, and there's a full breakdown on the package page.
All of it, from a base in the county's north-east corner. Bath, Keynsham, Midsomer Norton and Frome are close enough that meeting in person is trivial; further afield, towards Taunton, Yeovil or the coast, projects run over calls and screen shares, which is how most of our builds run anyway wherever the client is.
Every site we build launches with the SEO essentials done properly: keyword research for your main search term, content written and optimised for it, and all the technical work handled. The package also includes setting up your Google Business Profile, configuring it properly, and showing you how to keep it working for you. And we'll be straight with you about what search can and can't do in your market - no agency can honestly promise you a position. If you want to push harder than the essentials, our SEO service takes it on month by month.
Most websites take 3 to 6 weeks. The timeline depends partly on how quickly we receive what we need from you, such as your logo, photos, and answers to our questionnaire.
Send them over by phone, email or text and we make them; unlimited updates are part of the monthly package. Our contract guarantees a response within one business day, and in practice most changes are turned around the same day.
