Is your website slowing your business down?

Our website takes ages to load on a phone.

People don't wait. They tap back and choose someone else.

We paid a lot for our website and it still doesn't bring in enquiries.

A good-looking website that's slow and confusing won't sell.

Every small change costs us time and money.

Plugins, updates and things breaking shouldn't be your problem.

Speed matters

Which one would you take to a race?

How it works

How we build fast websites

Most websites are built from templates and plugins. They're quick to put together, but every extra piece makes the website heavier and slower. It's like turning up to a race in a family car with luggage on the roof.

Fast websites are what we do, day in, day out. We know what makes a website fly, and we know what quietly slows one down. You don't need to understand any of it. That's our job.

The result is a website that loads almost instantly, even on a phone. Google notices, and so do your customers.

Our own website scores 99 out of 100 on Google's speed test. We build yours to the same standard.

Farzana and Uzair Kharawala, co-founders of SF Digital Studios
What makes your websites so fast?

We hand-build every page with clean, simple code. There are no heavy templates, page builders or plugins. Images are shrunk and videos only load when someone clicks play.

How does the Speed Challenge work?

Enter your website address on the Speed Challenge page. No email is needed. Google PageSpeed Insights tests your website against ours, and you see the result in under a minute. If your like-for-like business website in the UK, the US and Europe scores higher than ours, you win £50.

Will my website be accessible to disabled people?

Yes. We build every website so it can be read with strong contrast, used with a screen reader and used without a mouse, and we test each page with Google's accessibility checks before it goes live. UK businesses have a duty under the Equality Act 2010 to make reasonable adjustments for disabled people, and that includes websites.

Do you build on WordPress?

No. WordPress websites rely on themes and plugins, and that's what slows them down. We hand-build ours for speed.

Can I update the website myself?

You don't need to. Changes are part of our updates and maintenance, so you just tell us what you need and we do it.

Do you host the website?

Yes. We host it on fast, secure servers and look after the technical side for you.

Will I lose my Google rankings when I move?

We redirect your old pages to the new ones, so you keep the rankings you've earned.

How long does a new website take?

It depends on the size of the website. Before we start, we give you a clear timeline with dates.

Do I have to sign a long contract?

No. Hosting and updates are monthly, with no long contract.

Why should you listen to us?

We're proud to have presented for some of the biggest brands and at some of the biggest marketing events.

Why the Fastest Website Wins

Picture two cars on a start line. One is a family car with luggage on the roof. The other is a racing car. Both will get you there. Only one will win. Your website is in that race every time someone searches on Google and your competitors are on the start line right next to you. So why does the fastest website win?

When a page takes ages to load on a phone, people don't wait, they tap back and choose someone else. So, the first thing speed gives you is more enquiries. When your pages load in a blink, more visitors stay, read and get in touch. The second thing is Google. Google prefers fast websites, so speed helps you rank higher.

The third one surprises people. If you run Google Ads, a faster page can help lower what you pay for each click, so your budget goes further. Fast websites are what we do day in and day out. We know what makes a website fly and what quietly slows down one. And we practise what we preach. Our own website scores 99 out of 100 for speed on Google's test.

It also scores 100 out of 100 for accessibility. That means everyone can use it, including people who use a screen reader. We build yours to the same standards and we test every page for speed before it goes live. Then we look after it for you. Hosting, updates, and changes are all taken care of. Think your website is already fast?

Take our speed challenge and put it on the start line next to ours. And if you'd like a website that wins the race, click book a call button around this video. It's a free 30-minute call on Google Meet. We'll talk about your business and what your website needs to do. Thank you for your time and I look forward to seeing you on the call.
