Start here
Choose the path that matches the problem in front of you
Most projects begin with a simple need: a better website, stronger local visibility, a current site that needs fixing, or a workflow problem worth understanding before anything is built.
I need a website
A clean, mobile-friendly starter website that explains the business clearly and gives local customers a simple way to enquire.
Explore servicesI need help getting found locally
Stronger local foundations around services, location signals, service areas, and the trust details customers look for.
Explore servicesI need my current website improved
A practical refresh for dated, unclear, slow, or hard-to-use pages before committing to a bigger rebuild.
Explore servicesI need automation or a custom tool
Discovery for repeated admin, enquiry handling, follow-up, or internal workflows before any tool is scoped.

Start with the website foundation, then add the systems that make sense
Start with the website and local presence: a refresh, a starter website, or a local growth website. If the problem is operational, discovery comes first so automation or custom tool support can be scoped properly.

How it works
A clear path without pretending every project is identical
The detail changes by project, but the shape stays calm: review the enquiry, agree the scope, build a preview, handle feedback, then launch with checks.
01
Enquiry review
You send the practical details. Hannah helps organise the enquiry, then Ric reviews the likely fit, scope, and next step.
02
Quote and scope
If the project is suitable, you receive a written quote with scope, assumptions, payment terms, and what is needed from you.
03
Preview and feedback
Once approved, Ric builds the preview. Hannah can help turn feedback into a clear list of agreed changes.
04
Launch and handover
After approval and launch checks, the site goes live and handover notes or support options are shared where useful.
Founder-led
A practical studio led directly by Richard "Ric" Szymik
Szymik Digital is built for small businesses that want direct thinking, sharper online presentation, and practical digital work that actually helps day to day, whether they are local to Todmorden and West Yorkshire or supported remotely across the UK.
That can mean a new website, a sharper refresh, stronger local visibility foundations, or practical systems only when they solve a real workflow problem.
Built for long-term usefulness, not short-term polish alone
Every project is shaped around clarity, trust, and keeping the next stage easier rather than harder.
- No account-manager relay between strategy and delivery
- A direct view of what matters now and what can wait
- Design and systems choices made with the business in mind
FAQ
Common questions before a project starts
If the current site feels unclear, dated, or held together by workarounds, these are usually the first things people want to know.
What kind of businesses are the best fit?
Szymik Digital is best suited to small local businesses: trades, care/support providers, clinics, consultants, sole traders, and service-led teams that need a clearer website, stronger local visibility foundations, or practical systems once the basics are working.
Can you help if we already have a website?
Yes. Redesigns, content restructuring, tidy-ups, and wider digital presence cleanup are a big part of the work.
Do you only build websites?
Websites and local visibility are the first focus. When a business has outgrown the basics, support can also include practical systems, lightweight automation, and custom tools behind the scenes.
Who will we hear from during the project?
Szymik Digital stays small and direct. Ric handles the build and technical delivery, and Hannah may help coordinate client communication, feedback, and admin steps where useful.
Do you offer support after launch?
Yes. Ongoing support can cover updates, landing pages, refinements, technical tidy-ups, and sensible next-step improvements once the site is live.
Not sure yet?
Tell us what you need, and we will help shape the next step
Start with a practical conversation about what feels outdated, unclear, difficult to find locally, or harder than it should be. From there, Hannah can help gather the right details and Ric can review the scope before a quote or recommendation is suggested.
