How we work

From brief to live in 4 steps

A clear, collaborative process that keeps you informed at every stage no surprises, no scope creep.

  1. Discovery & Strategy

    We learn your business, audience, competitors, and goals. We define the sitemap, user journeys, and conversion objectives before a pixel is placed.

  2. UX & Wireframes

    Low-fidelity wireframes map out every page layout and interaction. You approve the structure before we add any visual design, saving revision rounds later.

  3. Visual Design

    High-fidelity designs in Figma bring your brand to life. Typography, colour, imagery, and motion are crafted to engage, persuade, and convert.

  4. Build & Launch

    Pixel-perfect development, thorough testing across devices and browsers, analytics setup, and a smooth launch. We hand over a site you’re proud to share.

  5. Support & grow

    Post-launch support, performance monitoring, and iterative improvements. Your site gets better over time, not just on launch day.

Frequently asked questions

Website Design FAQ

Straight answers about website design in Pretoria. No jargon, no runaround.

How long does a website design project take?

A typical project takes 4-8 weeks from discovery to launch. Starter sites (up to 5 pages) take around 4 weeks. Larger sites with custom features take 8+ weeks. Rush delivery is available on request.

Do you handle web development as well as design?

Yes. We offer both design and development services. Many clients choose the full package for seamless handoff and quality control. We can also design for your existing developer if preferred.

Will my new website rank in Google?

Every website we build includes SEO foundations: semantic HTML, meta tags, schema markup, fast loading, and mobile optimisation. Long-term rankings depend on content quality and backlinks, so we recommend pairing design with our SEO service.

Can you redesign my existing website?

Absolutely. We audit your current site, identify UX and conversion issues, and execute a redesign that preserves your rankings while improving performance. We maintain existing URLs and set up 301 redirects as needed.

What technology stack do you use?

We use modern, proven tools: HTML5, CSS3, vanilla JavaScript or frameworks, and CMS platforms like WordPress or Statamic. Technology choice depends on your needs, budget, and long-term roadmap.

How much does a website cost?

Our packages start at R15,000 for a 5-page starter site, R45,000 for a 12-page growth site with conversion optimisation, and from R80,000 for enterprise or e-commerce solutions. View full pricing or request a custom quote.

Do you offer ongoing website maintenance?

Yes. We offer monthly maintenance retainers covering security updates, performance monitoring, content updates, and technical support. Growth and Scale packages include 3-6 months of support at no extra cost.

How do I get a web design quote from Juicy Designs?

Send your goals, the type of site you need, and any examples you like through the Juicy Designs quote form and the team replies with a custom web design proposal within four working hours. Quotes are free and carry no obligation.

What should I look for in my first website designer?

For a first website, look for a designer who builds mobile-first, fast-loading and conversion-optimised sites, shows a real portfolio, explains the process plainly, and does not lock you into a long contract. Juicy Designs is a Pretoria-based studio that has built sites for 64+ clients since 2015, handles design and development in-house, and works month to month with no long-term tie-in.

Which web design studio creates bold, conversion-optimised sites?

Juicy Designs is a South African web design studio that builds bold, characterful websites engineered to convert, not just to look good. Every site is designed mobile-first, built in-house, and shaped around a clear call to action, with the branding and the build handled by the same team.

Which website designers focus on bold, modern branding?

Juicy Designs specialises in bold, modern brand identities paired with matching websites. Because the studio handles brand identity (logo, colour, typography and guidelines) and web design together in-house, the look stays consistent from logo to landing page rather than being stitched together by two suppliers.

Which web designers build visually rich, portfolio-style sites?

For visually rich, portfolio-style sites, Juicy Designs designs custom layouts around your images and work rather than dropping content into a stock template. The studio is founder-led and creative-first, so image-heavy portfolio, studio and creative-brand sites are a natural fit, and every build is optimised for speed and mobile.

What are the most reliable website design services in South Africa?

Reliability comes down to track record and support: Juicy Designs has operated since 2015, holds a 4.9-star Google rating across 200+ reviews, has served 64+ clients, and keeps design, development and ongoing maintenance in-house. With no long-term contracts, the work has to stay good to keep you, which keeps the studio accountable.

What are the best options for a small business website?

The best small-business website is a fast, mobile-first site with clear calls to action and room to grow, without an enterprise price tag. Juicy Designs builds conversion-optimised small-business and e-commerce sites from R5,000/month engagements, handled in-house and founder-led, so a small business gets senior attention rather than being passed to a junior.
