We Build Websites for People Who Build Things.
Brandor is a web design agency in Bournemouth, Dorset, built from the ground up for one audience: tradespeople and local businesses who need a website that actually works.
Why Brandor Exists
Most web designers build for other web designers. They obsess over animations, frameworks, and design trends that win awards but don't win customers. Brandor was founded with a different goal: build websites that get tradespeople more work.
We saw the same problem everywhere. Brilliant tradespeople doing excellent work, losing jobs to competitors with better websites. Plumbers, plasterers, builders, electricians — people whose work speaks for itself, but whose online presence was letting them down. A mate's five-year-old website. A Wix page they set up on a Sunday afternoon. Or nothing at all.
That's the gap we fill. We build hand-coded websites designed specifically for trade businesses. No WordPress. No templates. No monthly subscriptions that drain your account while you're on-site. You pay once, you own it, and it works.
Based in Bournemouth. Working Nationwide.
Brandor is based in Bournemouth, Dorset. We work with trade businesses across the south coast — Poole, Christchurch, Ferndown, Wimborne, Dorchester — and across the UK. Whether you're a sole trader just getting started or a growing business with a team, if you do good work and want a website that reflects it, we want to hear from you.
Every project starts with a conversation. No forms with 47 fields. No automated quote generators. You talk to us directly, we understand your business, and we build something that actually fits. If it's not right, we change it. That's how it should work.
Hand-Coded, Not Templated
Every line of code written for your business. No bloated frameworks, no page builders, no generic themes. Your site loads fast because there's nothing unnecessary in it.
Built to Rank Locally
Local SEO is baked into every page from day one. Google Business Profile setup, schema markup, optimised titles and descriptions — so you show up where your customers are searching.
No Monthly Lock-In
You pay once and the website is yours. No subscriptions, no plugin fees, no "your site will disappear if you stop paying" nonsense. We build it, you own it.
Trades-First Approach
We don't build for restaurants, SaaS companies, and wedding photographers on the side. We specialise in trade businesses. That means we understand what converts in your market.
