Web Design Testimonials
We’ve received countless compliments about how professional and user friendly our website is. We’ve since been in contact with Liam who has created guides for us to be able to update the website ourselves as well as expand and develop the website as we grow as a company. It has been a very smooth and effortless collaboration with Soapbox and has given us a brilliant website which has increased our sales. We look forward to continuing to work with them in the future as we grow and expand.


Soapbox have been dealing with all my fliers, websites, and vehicles graphics for over ten years now. Great guys, great team to work with. The guys always lend a real personal experience and are happy to keep me up to date with the digital side of things and help me put together design ideas for my marketing.


The Soapbox team have paid for themselves many times over from the extra business that has come from enquiries.


I had the pleasure of working with Soapbox Digital Media to design a website for my restaurant, Pendulum. I was impressed with their professionalism, responsiveness, and attention to detail. The end result was a beautiful website that has received positive feedback from customers. I highly recommend Soapbox Digital Media for anyone looking for high-quality web design services, especially if you’re a restaurant owner like myself.


A MASSIVE thank you to all the Soapbox team for their ongoing support with our BakeBox Gifting website. From creation, to content, and all the further developments inbetween! Soapbox are an invaluable extension to any business and offer a wide skill set to help best reflect any website need. Thanks again for all your help in maximising opportunities for business success and growth.


I have worked with the guys at Soapbox for design and print through my other company, Colourfence, so when it came to launching Mangow there was only one place I was going for both my new website and print materials. Both the digital team and print team were excellent throughout the entire project and produced top quality products that I am absolutely delighted with. My business partner and I were kept involved during the whole process and any thoughts or ideas we had were taken on board, it was clear that they cared about the end product and how we felt. We highly recommend Soapbox, the finished product is outstanding and the customer service is fantastic. If you need a website or something designed and printed get in touch with them!

Your web presence is creating its first impression with Tranent customers currently!
A site visitor comes via Google, spends roughly three seconds deciding whether your company seems suitable, then either makes contact or leaves for another website.
If that three second judgement goes in your favour, brilliant.
Unsure? That instinct is probably the best one to follow.
Soapbox Digital Media is a Glasgow based, full service digital agency that has created websites for Scottish companies since 2012.
We produce tailored websites, WordPress sites and ecommerce stores for Tranent companies in hospitality, professional services, retail, trades, technology and all sectors in between.
What our team develop & construct in partnership with Tranent Enterprises
Tranent businesses come to us with very diverse website requirements.
This explains what we usually create for clients located in Tranent and the local area.
Custom website development
Bespoke web design commences with your company instead of a pre-set template.
We guide every design decision around your identity, customers and ambitions, delivering an impressive website that feels distinctly yours, instead of another company’s site with your logo merely placed.
While it takes longer than a template build, the result is worth the extra effort.
Whether you are developing a website from the ground up or fundamentally reworking your current website, the design process is where every significant decision is made.
WordPress-powered Platforms
For most projects, we use WordPress as our primary content management system.
It drives more than a third of the internet for compelling reasons: it is dependable, versatile, and lets you manage your own content without reaching out to a web designer whenever an update is needed.
We create WordPress websites that are fast, well organised, and easy to navigate from both the back end and front end.
When set up properly from the beginning, a WordPress website can serve a small business for many years without causing ongoing management difficulties.
Above all, editing and making changes is pleasantly straightforward. Once we have finished our work, your website remains entirely in your hands, giving you total control over its content.
Looking to share a company success, update your images or add a new service page? We give you all the tools you need to manage your website exactly as you wish.
Internet shopping websites
Whether your catalogue contains twenty products or two thousand, an well-designed ecommerce website must keep the purchasing process straightforward.
We build ecommerce stores that load fast on all devices, with layouts that help customers make a purchase and integrate properly with your stock management and payment systems.
Our ecommerce website builds prioritise conversion rate optimisation right from the start, rather than introducing it six months later when you ask why visitors are not buying!
Web redesigns and rebuilds
Much of the website design and development work we carry out involves redesigning websites for Tranent organisations whose current sites are not achieving the results they should.
Possibly it seems old-fashioned, takes a long time to load, or generates weak conversion results. You may be unable to amend it without speaking to someone.
We start by reviewing your current website, then provide an honest recommendation on whether redesigning or rebuilding best suits its specific needs.
An established keyword position can drop away overnight after a hurried redesign. We link each current URL with its new destination, apply correct redirects, and preserve your strongest content instead of starting over with everything from scratch.
This preserves the organic traffic you have earned to date while giving you a website that looks much better and performs far better.
Brand development and website design integrated
Some Tranent companies approach us requiring much more than a website alone.
They first require a considered brand identity, with a logo, colour palette and tone of voice consistent with how they want to appear.
We can shape your branding and website as a unified project, so that both are aligned right from the start rather than adjusted at a later stage. This gives your website, social channels and printed materials a cohesive appearance that visibly represents the same company.
For newer Tranent businesses without a defined visual identity, this is often the more advisable route. It prevents you from rebuilding the website in a year when the branding has become more established.
What a highly successful website accomplishes
An visually engaging website that remains undiscovered to search engines is, in practical terms, little more than a refined business card. Conversely, a website that appears prominently in search results yet proves difficult to navigate can lose possible customers before they get in touch.
Strong web design seamlessly unites both elements.
It looks at a site’s visual design and the way it works.
This covers how quickly visitors locate what they are looking for, how effectively the content communicates your offer, and whether the entire build is organised so Google can interpret it.
We focus on great user experiences to lift conversions, then build with SEO in mind to attract the traffic that gets everything started.
By working collaboratively from the outset, we build an high-performing website that ranks well and converts visitors into customers.
Discover what comes as standard with our Tranent website design services!
Formed on strong technical footings
An appealing website that is slow, vulnerable, or hard for search engines to understand will fail to perform well, regardless of its overall design.
Each Tranent undertaking is constructed on robust technical foundations right from the start, rather than being viewed as an afterthought.
Performance and Essential Web Vitals
Google examines your pages’ loading speed, their response time when users tap or click, and the extent to which the layout moves as content loads.
Known as Core Web Vitals, these influence your search rankings and the number of visitors who stay on your site.
For every website we develop, we improve its images, code and hosting, making sure it looks exceptional and performs flawlessly.
Security, Web Hosting and Adherence
Each site we launch is provided via HTTPS, hosted appropriately for WordPress or your ecommerce platform, and provided with the cookie consent and privacy notices required under UK data protection law.
We further schedule regular backups, ensuring hosting issues or a faulty plugin update never put months of content at risk.
Accessible for Any Guest
Accessibility is at the core of everything we develop.
This features a well-defined heading structure, accessible colour contrast, and forms designed to work with screen readers.
It represents solid practice while also allowing a wider range of customers to navigate your website.
Analytics and Monitoring Configured from Day One
Every website we build provides detailed analytics and goal tracking right from the start, not as something added afterwards when you question the site’s performance.
This ensures you can track precisely how many leads, calls, or sales your website generates from the moment it launches.
What can you expect from your website’s Website Design?
Each project pulls design, development and launch together as one whole package.
We create your layout from scratch for your business, ensuring it functions across all devices through responsive web design that works equally effectively on mobile and desktop.
We oversee the technical aspects for your convenience.
This covers speed optimisation, hosting setup, and content management system configuration, so that you to maintain your own pages after handover.
No specialist qualification is needed to amend a paragraph or include an image. You maintain total control of your business and website.
Created For Your Organisation Requirements
Each project is structured around your business’s particular needs.
Some clients require bespoke integrations, booking platforms, or CRM links. Some others require website design and branding created together. Some also require digital marketing services introduced at launch.
We identify the perfect package to support your business goals.
What The Staff’s Sustained Guidance Involves
There is nothing to worry about if you would prefer to prioritise your business over maintaining your webpages.
After your website is launched, ongoing support remains available for clients who prefer us to handle its upkeep, from security updates and content changes to resolving any technical issues that come up.
This generally covers plugin and theme updates, uptime checks, minor content edits, and a quick response when faults occur rather than leaving a support ticket unresolved for a week.
How our group Operate at Soapbox
Uncovering of the market
We commence with a detailed discussion about your business and what you want your website to achieve.
Do you have a project outline ready to hand? Great. If not, we will collect every answer needed to bring your vision to life.
The project scope, schedule, and expenses are agreed before any additional work begin.
Create a unique
We build your homepage and key pages, then present them before development starts.
You will assess the layout, visual style, and overall visual appeal before coding starts.
We develop it collaboratively until you are completely happy with the result.
Build and assessment
We build your website, evaluate it across browsers and devices, then compare it against the original brief before going live.
Identifying and resolving issues before the site goes live is much easier than addressing them afterwards.
We handle this stage with the care it requires.
Launch and Transition
Once the site goes live, we support you with its management and provide everything you need to take full ownership with confidence.
Continued support is available if you would prefer us to handle the technical side, while we ensure you have the understanding needed to feel comfortable maintaining your website.
Ultimately, it is yours.
