About Us

Semi-Skimmed was created because we found that conventional web design just wasn’t meeting the needs of many small businesses and charities.

Its a common problem:  “I need a website to promote my organisation, but have only a small budget and limited technical know how.”

Traditionally you’re faced with two choices:

  1. A very basic, template website that’s as cheap as chips but looks and feels as appealing as a battered sausage.
  2. Go to a web design agency to custom-build your site, who then smirk when you tell them your budget.

Semi-skimmed have cut the fat out of the web design process to give you the best of both worlds.  As kick-ass website that you didn’t think you could afford.

The way we achieve this is simple:

  • We have standard pricing - It’s cheaper to give you everything you want, than spend ages writing proposals and negotiating a custom package.
  • We use existing technology - It takes years to build a theatre but minutes to change the set on stage.  We use a standard framework (from Wordpress or Magento) and customise the scenes.
  • We are a web based agency - We don’t have a swanky London office, and do everything by phone and email.  We all know that nothing gets done in meetings, so we find it best to not bother.

We are committed to a better environment - read more abour our excellent environmental standards.
