Web Design in Matlock, Derbyshire
A Matlock website has two jobs. Locals are checking when you’re open, and visitors coming into the Dales have never heard of you and are deciding where to go. I build sites that win both, whether you’ve got a shop on Crown Square or a trade covering the Peak District, and I’m just down the road in Belper.

Who does web design in Matlock for businesses that rely on visitors?
North Bear Media, Norton Hunt’s web and marketing studio in Belper, down the A6, builds websites for Matlock and Derbyshire Dales businesses that serve locals and Peak District visitors, so they load quickly on a phone and make booking easy. Each site is a project, priced after a quick chat, and the usual first step is the £295 Marketing MOT.
Web design for Matlock & the Derbyshire Dales
Matlock businesses serve two lots of people at once: the locals, and the visitors heading into the Dales and the Peak District.
Your website has to work for both, and that’s harder than it sounds. Somebody checking your opening times on their phone halfway up a hill needs it to load fast and tell them straight. Somebody browsing from a hotel two counties away needs a reason to book you over the place next door.
So I build Matlock sites to work on a phone first, with the search side sorted underneath, so you come up whether they’re searching from Crown Square or planning the trip from home. Visitors are the most likely to ask ChatGPT where to go, so your site says what you do in plain words it can read. That gives you the best chance of being the one it suggests.
I’m just down the road in Belper, so I come up and see the place before I start.

Photos of the actual shop, rather than stock ones.
Ginger Butchers are a farm shop and butchers with a shop in Matlock. I’ve photographed their food and the work that goes on behind the counter, so it’s their own place people see when they find them online.
What a Matlock website costs, and keeping it current.
A booking site for visitors is a very different job to a couple of pages that need to come up locally, so the build’s priced after a quick chat.
Want me to keep the whole thing going? That’s Found & Filmed, at £995 a month. I come and film at yours once a quarter, so you get proper footage of the place in summer and in winter, and alongside that I work on how you come up on Google and in AI search. The posting and replies are handled too. It’s rolling, with 30 days’ notice either way, and it costs far less than taking someone on, with no training and no kit to buy.
Want to start smaller? The MOT’s £295 and it’s back within 48 hours. You can stop there if you want.

How a Matlock website gets built
Here’s the order I do it in for a business with two lots of customers.
- 01 //
The locals’ bit
Opening times and directions, the things people check on their phone, go where they’re easy to find straight away.
- 02 //
The visitors’ bit
Then it’s photos of the actual place and why you, for people deciding from further away.
- 03 //
Booking or enquiry
Whichever you take, it’s one tap from anywhere on the site, so somebody who’s browsing doesn’t wander off.
- 04 //
Changed with the seasons
Once it’s live I keep the times and the offers up to date as the year goes round.
Client view
“I’m really delighted with the outcome and having a website that I am proud of means I have a great platform from which to share my work with new clients.”

Common questions about web design in Matlock.
Is there a web developer in Matlock?
I’m Norton Hunt at North Bear Media, and I do the web design and development for Matlock businesses myself, from Belper, just down the A6. I come up to Matlock to meet you and see the place before I build anything.
How much does website design in Matlock cost?
That comes down to what the site has to do, because one that takes bookings from visitors is a different job to one that mainly needs to come up locally. Each website is a project, priced after a quick chat. Found & Filmed is £995 a month if you want me to keep it all going, and the Marketing MOT is £295.
How long does it take to build a website?
That’s set by the size of the site and whether it takes bookings, because a booking setup needs more testing than a few pages that mainly need to come up locally. I give you a timeline when I scope it, and if there’s a season you rely on, I plan it around that.
Do you use templates?
I pick the platform to suit the business, not the other way round. A booking site for visitors may need building from scratch, and a simpler one may sit better on a website platform. I’ll tell you which I recommend and why before anything is built.
Will my website work on mobile?
Yes, the phone version gets designed first. That’s how most visitors find you in Matlock, checking opening times or directions while they’re out in the Dales.
Do you offer ongoing support?
Yes. I host it and keep it up to date, which matters in a town where opening times and offers change through the year. It’s part of Found & Filmed too, if you go on that.

If somebody planning a day in Matlock searched for what you do, would they find your website?
The MOT is the quickest way to find out. I search for your trade on Google and in ChatGPT the way a visitor would, and you get a score out of 100 back within 48 hours.
