Web Development That Solves Real Business Problems
A website shouldn’t just look good. It needs to load quickly, work reliably, be easy to find and turn the right visitors into customers.
We build digital products around those requirements from the beginning.
Whether you’re replacing an outdated website, generating more leads, developing a web application or connecting systems that don’t currently work together, we’ll help you plan, build and improve the right solution.
Custom Development
When an existing platform or plugin can’t do what you need, we’ll build something that can. From internal tools and dashboards to complex functionality and bespoke business systems.
Technical SEO
SEO considerations are built into our development process rather than added as an afterthought. We focus on crawlable architecture, performance, internal linking, technical implementation and the foundations search engines need to discover and understand your website.
Web Design & Development
Fast, responsive websites designed around your users and business goals. We combine considered UX and clean design with robust, maintainable development.
App Design & Development
Custom web and cross-platform applications, from early wireframes and prototypes through to development, integrations, testing and launch.
Schema & Structured Data
We implement accurate structured data that helps search engines understand the entities and information on your website and can support eligibility for relevant search features.
Lead Generation Websites
Websites engineered around qualified enquiries. We bring together UX, performance, development and clear conversion journeys to help turn more of your existing and future traffic into leads.
Conversion Optimisation
We identify friction in your customer journey and make evidence-led improvements to pages, forms, calls to action and user experience.
The objective is simple: get more commercial value from the traffic you already have.
AI Development & Automation
Practical AI solutions designed around genuine business requirements, including workflow automation, intelligent data processing, AI integrations and custom internal tools.
Digital Platforms Built to Handle the Pressure
Performance matters when your business depends on your website.
We engineer platforms for speed, stability and maintainability, whether you’re handling increased traffic, integrating multiple systems, expanding into new markets or managing complex data.
That means thinking beyond launch day.
Architecture, hosting, security, integrations, performance and future development requirements are considered as part of the build, giving you a platform that can evolve instead of becoming the next problem you need to replace.
Development That Doesn't Stop at Launch
Launching your website or application is only the beginning.
Kraken Dev Co provides ongoing development and technical support for businesses that want a long-term development partner rather than a one-off supplier.
We can help with:
- Ongoing development and new functionality
- Performance and technical improvements
- Maintenance and platform updates
- Integrations and automation
- Technical SEO implementation
- Conversion improvements
- Infrastructure and hosting
- Longer-term development roadmaps
As your requirements change, we stay involved and help your platform change with them.
Direct Access to the People Building Your Project
No unnecessary layers. No disappearing behind account managers.
You work directly with the people responsible for planning, developing and delivering your project.
We can operate as your development team or work alongside your existing marketing, design and technical teams. Either way, responsibilities stay clear, communication stays straightforward and technical decisions can be made quickly.
It means fewer handovers, less information lost in translation and a development partner that understands both the code and the commercial reason behind it.
