Your website should do more than look good
A strong website sharpens your positioning, builds trust, supports sales and turns traffic into enquiries. It gives prospects a clearer reason to understand your business, believe in your offer and take the next step.
Is your website helping your business grow?
Urban Brand Creative builds award-winning websites and eCommerce systems for businesses that need a stronger digital presence and a clearer path to growth.
“We were very, very lucky to find Keith when we did. He helped us bring the website and the brand to life — and gave us so much confidence to share our story with others.”

FAQs
-
UBC is a founder-led strategic growth partner with 10 years of experience delivering websites and wider digital projects for startups, scale-ups and enterprise-level organisations.
Since 2016, we’ve delivered 100+ projects, earned 100+ five-star online reviews and produced award-winning work.
Whether you need a focused website or a much larger, more complex build, we bring the same strategic thinking, commercial focus and senior oversight to every project.
-
Without a clear strategy, even well-designed websites can struggle to perform. The strongest websites are built around clear positioning, audience understanding, search intent, conversion goals and long-term growth priorities before design and development begin.
As strategic growth partners, UBC helps businesses think beyond individual pages and focus on how the website supports the wider commercial ecosystem around it.
-
Focused website projects generally start from €5,000, with eCommerce and more complex builds typically requiring a larger investment from €7,500 onwards.
The final cost depends on factors such as scale, functionality, content, integrations, catalogue complexity and the level of strategy required.
For larger projects involving several connected workstreams, a UBC Growth Sprint™ may be the better route.
-
t depends on the size and complexity of the project.
A focused brochure website can move relatively quickly, while larger eCommerce, enterprise or institutional websites require more strategy, content, testing and stakeholder input.
We agree a clear scope, delivery plan and timeline before the project begins.
-
Yes.
We work extensively with both platforms because they solve different problems well.
Squarespace is particularly strong for brochure, service, institutional and content-led websites. Shopify is our preferred platform for serious eCommerce, particularly where product catalogues, variants, merchandising and integrations become more complex.
We recommend the platform that best fits the project rather than forcing every client onto the same technology.
-
Start with what the website needs to do.
If your priority is communicating your business, generating enquiries, publishing information or serving multiple audiences, Squarespace may be the better fit.
If online selling is central to the business — particularly with a larger catalogue, significant product variations or more complex eCommerce requirements — Shopify will usually make more sense.
We’ll help you choose based on the brief, not platform preference.
-
For some organisations, WordPress can make sense. But for many SMEs, it introduces unnecessary maintenance, plugin management, security overhead and long-term complexity. UBC focuses on platforms that allow clients to move faster and manage their websites more confidently.
-
Yes. UBC has worked on large-scale public-facing platforms including healthcare, institutional and not-for-profit websites with complex navigation, multiple audiences and accessibility requirements.
-
Absolutely. Every website is designed mobile-first, with responsive layouts, accessible navigation and optimised performance across devices.
-
Not always.
If you already have a clear brief, objectives, budget and scope, we may be able to move directly into the project.
If there are still questions around platform choice, structure, customer journeys, integrations, functionality or the wider commercial brief, Discovery helps define what actually needs to be built before committing budget to execution.
-
Yes — provided the budget and ambition are realistic for each other.
We can work backwards from an agreed budget and determine the strongest scope we can deliver within it.
We would rather define or phase the project properly at the outset than promise too much and compromise the quality of the finished website.
-
Yes.
Search, accessibility and mobile usability are considered as part of the website from the beginning rather than treated as extras at the end.
Depending on scope, this can include site architecture, content hierarchy, metadata, redirects, accessibility requirements, responsive design, analytics and making the site easier to discover through both traditional search engines and emerging AI-led search
