Web design studio in Margate, Kent
Websites for small businesses that want to be found.
We design and build fast, good-looking websites for local businesses, then host them, keep them updated and make sure Google can find them. One simple monthly subscription, no agency runaround.
Featured work
Real sites, for real local businesses
A few of the sites we’ve designed, built and look after.

What we do
Everything your website needs, in one place
Design, build, hosting and search, looked after by the same people who built it.
Design & build
A bespoke website designed around your business, not a template with your logo dropped in. Fast, mobile-first and built on modern tech that stays quick as it grows.
Hosting, updates & support
We host it, secure it, connect your domain and keep it running. You get a simple editor to change words and pictures yourself, and we’re a message away when you need a hand.
Found on Google
Every site ships with the technical groundwork search engines expect, plus a Google Business Profile set up properly, so local customers actually find you.
How it works
A simple process, from first chat to live site
No long briefs, no six-week timelines. We keep things moving and keep you in the loop.
01
Chat
A quick call or email about what you do, who your customers are and what you need the site to do.
02
Preview
We build a real, working preview of your site. You see it in your browser, not a mock-up.
03
Refine
Tell us what to change. Copy, photos, colours, pages. We tweak until it feels like yours.
04
Go live
Domain connected, Google set up, and you’re live within days of saying yes.
Small businesses deserve websites as good as the big ones.
We started Palm Bay Digital because too many great local businesses were stuck with slow, dated sites or none at all. Good design, quick loading and being findable on Google shouldn’t be reserved for companies with a marketing department.
Every site we build is designed for the phone first, then the desktop, so it looks right wherever your customers find you.
Clients
Who we work with
From sole traders to funded start-ups, mostly across Kent and the UK.
Trades & services
Builders, plumbers, landscapers, movers and cleaners who need quote requests, not vanity metrics.
Hospitality & food
Restaurants, pizzerias, bars, campers for hire and wine makers who want bookings and a site that looks the part.
Independent professionals
Therapists, doulas, photographers and consultants whose website is the first impression.
