A website you can update yourself.
Change your own words, pictures and pages without waiting for a developer. We design, build, host and look after it, or just the parts you need.
What’s a content management system?
It’s the part of a website that lets you change words, pictures and pages yourself. You log in, edit a page much like a document, press publish, and the change is live.
You’ll often hear it called a CMS. Every site we build has one, set up around the things you actually change, like opening hours, news or your team.
One team for all of it.
We design, build, host and support your site, so you only ever have one team to talk to. Or pick just the parts you need.
Design
Clear, accessible design that suits the people who use it.
Or bring your own designs.
Build
Solid, well-tested code, written by us.
Host
Fast, secure hosting that we keep an eye on.
Or host it yourself.
Support
Fixes, updates and improvements from the people who understand it.
Ongoing, or just when you need us.
Why we like Umbraco.
For most new sites we use Umbraco, a well-established content management system that’s been around for over 20 years.
We don’t get anything for recommending it. We just think it’s the best fit for most sites.
Already on something else? We can work with other systems too, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s worth switching.
About our Umbraco work- No licence fee to pay.
- Simple for your team to edit day to day.
- Regular updates and a large community behind it.
- Grows with you, from a few pages to a large site.
Questions people ask.
Something else on your mind? Email hello@kilnsoftware.co.uk
Can you move my existing site?
Yes. We move your pages, pictures and content across, and set up redirects so links to your old pages still work and you keep your place in search results.
Who owns the site?
You do. The content, the design and the code are yours. If you ever want to move to someone else, we’ll help you do it.
How long does a new website take?
It depends on the size of the site. You’ll get a plan and an estimate before anything is built, so you know roughly how long it will take and what it will cost.
What happens if something breaks?
If we look after your site, you tell us and we fix it. If you’d rather look after it yourself, we can step in whenever you need us.
Will it work on phones?
Yes. Every site we build works on phones, tablets and computers, and is built to be usable by as many people as possible.
