A website development service with a commercial brief
A business website has specific jobs. It must explain the offer, earn trust, answer buying questions and make contact easy. It also needs page routes and technical markup that search engines can crawl without guesswork. Klarai starts with the services you sell and the actions a visitor should take, then builds the design and code around that brief.
Problem
When a custom website is the right choice
Custom development is useful when a template limits page structure, speed, integrations or content control. It also suits a business planning a redesign where current URLs, rankings and analytics need to be preserved.
You may need a new build if the current site has no clear service pages, performs poorly on mobile, depends on a developer for simple edits or sends every campaign to the same generic page. The website review will show whether a rebuild is required or whether focused changes can solve the problem.
Included
What is included in our web design and development service
01
Discovery and project scope
We document the audience, services, required pages, content responsibilities, integrations and launch constraints. The proposal lists deliverables, exclusions and approval stages.
02
Sitemap and user journeys
We plan the page hierarchy and the routes visitors use to reach a service, case study, tool or contact action. Existing URLs are reviewed before a redesign so valuable pages are not lost.
03
Interface design
Klarai designs the page templates and reusable sections required by the sitemap. Desktop and mobile states are reviewed before full development.
04
Front end development
Pages are built as reusable components with responsive behaviour, accessible controls and consistent spacing. Next.js is used where it fits the project requirements.
05
Content management and admin tools
Where the brief requires it, the project can include editable services, case studies, articles and basic admin workflows.
06
SEO setup and migration
We implement titles, descriptions, canonical tags, sitemap rules, robots controls, redirects, structured data and internal links. Existing URLs are mapped before launch to reduce ranking loss during a redesign.
07
Forms, analytics and integrations
Contact forms, analytics and agreed third party services are tested before release. Events can be added for form submissions, calls, bookings or other actions supported by the site.
08
Quality checks and handover
The site is checked across common screen sizes and current browsers. Handover includes repository access, deployment details and guidance for the editable parts of the site.
Fit
Web development and SEO in one build
SEO decisions affect the sitemap, templates, rendering and content model. Adding them after launch can require new routes and repeated development. Klarai maps search demand before the build, keeps useful existing URLs and creates dedicated pages for important services. Technical SEO is included in the launch checklist. Ongoing ranking work is available as a separate monthly service.

Process
How a website project runs
01
Review
We review the existing site, business goals and technical requirements. You receive an initial recommendation on whether to rebuild or improve the current website.
02
Scope
The proposal confirms pages, features, content responsibilities, schedule, fee and approval stages. Work begins after the scope is accepted.
03
Design
The main page templates are designed and reviewed. Decisions about hierarchy, copy length and mobile behaviour are resolved before full development.
04
Build
Klarai develops the approved components, pages and integrations. Progress is shared at agreed review points.
05
Test and launch
We test forms, links, redirects, metadata, responsive layouts and analytics. The approved site is released after the launch checklist is complete.
06
Handover
Your team receives the agreed access and editing guidance. Ongoing maintenance, SEO and feature work can be scoped separately.
Engagement
Website project pricing
Each build is priced as a fixed project after discovery. The main cost factors are the number of templates, content work, custom interactions, integrations, admin features and migration requirements. The proposal lists what is included, what your team must provide and how additional requests are handled. Hosting, paid software and third party service fees are identified separately.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a custom website cost?+
The cost depends on page templates, content, integrations and admin requirements. Klarai reviews the brief before giving a fixed project estimate. The estimate separates the website build from optional SEO, maintenance and third party costs.
How long does website development take?+
The schedule depends on the number of templates, feedback speed and content readiness. A delivery schedule is included in the proposal after discovery. Approval delays and missing content are recorded because they affect the launch date.
Will I own the website?+
Yes. Handover includes the agreed source, deployment and account access. Any paid third party licences or services are listed in the proposal with their ownership terms.
Can you redesign a site without losing SEO traffic?+
Klarai reviews indexed URLs, metadata, internal links and existing performance before development. Redirects and crawl checks are part of the launch work. A migration can reduce avoidable losses, though rankings can still move after a major change.
Can my team update the website?+
Yes, when editable content is included in the scope. We define the content types and admin controls before development so the editing experience fits the team.
Do you build web applications?+
Klarai can scope focused web applications and website features. Requirements such as accounts, data storage, payments, dashboards and permissions need a technical review before pricing.
Do you provide support after launch?+
Post launch fixes covered by the project are defined in the proposal. Ongoing maintenance, SEO and new feature work can continue under a separate monthly agreement.
