What we do

Professionally crafted websites built around you

At Castlegate IT, our experienced designers, developers and project managers produce high-quality, reliable, secure and effective websites that do exactly what you want them to do – whether that’s generate enquiries, attract new customers, sell products, provide information or promote a cause.

Every one of our websites is hand-coded by our developers to meet high standards of accessibility, usability and security. Each website is unique and all our sites use responsive web design so they work beautifully on smartphones, tablets and desktop computers.

Whether you are a small business or a major organisation, we support you at every stage of the development process, from design and content entry to search engine optimisation and social media integration. We can even create bespoke web-based applications to fulfil specific functions for your business. And we get results: our sites consistently rank highly in Google and other search engines.
