NE1 Web Design & SEO

19/06/2026

Lately we’ve had a real influx of business owners coming to us after being burnt by “AI web designers” and “coders.” The websites they’ve been left with are, honestly, a bit scary. Slow, generic, badly written, and nowhere to be seen on Google.

At NE1 Web Design & SEO, we do it the proper way. Every site is designed and built from scratch, by hand, working closely with you and your business from the first idea through to launch.

No templates. No AI shortcuts. Just a website built around your goals, your customers, and the way you actually want to be found online.

20 years in, 225+ websites built and over 100 five-star Google reviews behind us.

If you’ve been let down by a cheap AI build, or you just want it done right first time, drop us a message. We’d be happy to take a look and show you what’s possible

New service alert: AI & Generative SEO

Search is changing fast.

Your customers aren't just typing into Google any more, they're asking AI tools like ChatGPT for recommendations, reading Google AI Overviews before they ever click a link, and using voice assistants to find local businesses.

If your business isn't optimised for the way AI tools read and quote the web, you're invisible to a growing chunk of your market.

We've just launched our AI & Generative SEO service to fix exactly that — built around schema, conversational content, entity authority and Google AI Overview optimisation.

Take a look:

Optimise for ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity and voice search. The next era of SEO, done properly.

We’ve recently completed a full website redesign for Golf Club Screens.

The goal was to modernise the look, improve performance, and make it easier for visitors to understand the range of digital display solutions available for golf clubs across the UK.

The new site is faster, cleaner, and built with a strong focus on user experience and conversions, helping turn visitors into enquiries.

If you’re a golf club looking to improve communication with members, promote sponsors, or enhance your clubhouse environment, it’s well worth a look.

View the new website here: https://golfclubscreens.co.uk/

If your own website is starting to feel dated or isn’t generating the enquiries it should, we can help with that.

Most SEO fails for one simple reason. It is treated as an afterthought.

This recent project shows what happens when generative SEO is built in from the very start.

We created a brand new client website using AI to accelerate the build and refine the page structure from day one, whilst still maintaining stability and security.

But the real difference is not just the content.

From the outset, the site was engineered around the client’s highest value keywords and local search intent. Alongside that, we implemented our full SEO ecosystem that actually drives rankings.

That includes:

• Building high quality backlinks to increase authority

• Creating and optimising local citations to strengthen map visibility

• Analysing competitors to identify gaps and ranking opportunities

• Structuring pages based on real search behaviour

The image attached shows the result. Each marker represents visibility across different local areas, with multiple positions sitting at number one for key search terms. This is how we scale local rankings beyond a single location and dominate across a region.

No shortcuts. No spam tactics. Just the right strategy executed properly from the start. This is what generative SEO actually means.

It is not just AI generated content. It is using AI to move faster, while still applying the fundamentals that most websites are missing.

Most businesses launch a website, then think about SEO later.

We build websites to rank from as early as day one.

If your current website is not generating enquiries, or you are planning a new build and want stronger visibility in Google, this is exactly the approach we use for businesses across the North East.

Send me a message if you want to see how this could work for your business.

Custom web design isn't just about looking good—it's about standing out in the local market and turning visitors into loyal customers. Templates might be quick, but they rarely capture your unique business story or work well for local searches like a bespoke site can.

A tailored website means better user experience, stronger brand trust, and more leads knocking on your door. Ready to see how a custom design can change your local business? What's the one thing you'd want your website to do better?
