Web Design & WordPress Development in Axminster, East Devon

Blunt Notion designs and develops bespoke WordPress websites for businesses in Axminster, East Devon, and across the South West. We don’t rely on themes or page builders — every site is crafted from the ground up for performance, SEO, and scalability. Whether you’re a local trade, professional service, or creative business, we’ll help you build a fast, reliable website that genuinely works for your customers and your goals.

We’re Blunt Notion.

We’re a Somerset-based web design and WordPress development studio working with businesses in Axminster, East Devon, and across the Dorset border. You’ll get a website that’s actually built — not assembled — so it loads quickly, performs well in Google, and’s easy for you to manage.

Axminster’s home to everything from engineering firms and trades to hospitality and creative businesses. We build websites that fit each one — not just a template that looks the same everywhere else. Whether you’re upgrading from Wix or Webflow, rebuilding something slow and outdated, or starting fresh, we’ll handle the full process — planning, design, development, hosting, and long-term support.

We work with clients across the UK, but we’re close enough to meet face-to-face, review your site together, and stay involved as your digital partner — not just another agency that disappears after launch.

Bespoke Website Design in Axminster — Built for Performance, SEO, and Growth.

Your business doesn’t need another off the shelf solution. It needs a platform designed around your services, customers, and goals.

We build custom WordPress websites — not drag-and-drop themes — so your site only loads the code it actually needs. That means faster load times, better performance scores, and a cleaner foundation for SEO.

Every website we deliver is:

  • Designed to convert – clear messaging, service-driven pages, and well-placed calls to action.
  • Mobile-first and responsive – tested across real devices, not just resized in a browser.
  • SEO-optimised – semantic markup, structured data, and strong local signals for Axminster and East Devon.
  • Build brand awareness in Axminster and beyond.
  • Easy to update – flexible Gutenberg blocks and patterns that keep layouts consistent without needing a developer every time.

If you’re based in or near Axminster and want a website that genuinely performs — not just looks good for a year — we’ll help you build something sustainable, optimised, and ready to grow.

Our Web Design Process — From Concept to Launch, Done Properly.

Every website project we take on follows a clear, transparent process that keeps things simple and delivers results.

  1. Discovery & Strategy: We start by understanding your business — your goals, audience, and what makes you stand out. This is where we define structure, content needs, and the functionality that matters.
  2. Design & Prototyping: We turn ideas into visuals that represent your brand honestly. Clean, accessible design that works across devices and focuses on what users actually need to do, not on trends that fade in six months.
  3. Development: Your website is built from the ground up using modern WordPress standards, lightweight code, and SEO-friendly structure. No bloated themes or unnecessary plugins — just efficient, maintainable code that performs.
  4. Testing & Launch: Before launch, we test everything — from performance and browser compatibility to accessibility and SEO checks. When it goes live, it’s ready to work hard for your business from day one.
  5. Ongoing Support & Growth: Once your site is live, we’re still here. Hosting, maintenance, SEO improvements, and ongoing refinements to keep you moving forward as your business evolves.
