I work with companies in Yarm, Stokesley, Northallerton, Richmond, Thirsk and beyond , delivering websites that are both visually appealing and results-driven.

Every website I create includes:

Responsive design – ensuring your site looks great on all devices.
SEO built for local search – helping North Yorkshire businesses appear in search results.
Custom layouts – focused on generating leads, building credibility, and boosting online sales.
Ongoing support – via email, phone, or one-to-one meetings.

More about me

As a freelance web designer and developer based in Yarm, I help businesses across North Yorkshire create professional, affordable websites that deliver real results.

I began my career in web design back when websites were hand-coded from scratch, long before modern design software made things easier. That hands-on experience taught me the importance of clean, efficient code—a practice I still enjoy today.

I earned a master’s degree from Teesside University, where I also worked as a web designer from 2006–2008. Since moving into the business sector, I’ve designed websites for a wide range of businesses in North Yorkshire, Teesside and the North East, from local shops and cafés to professional services, tradespeople and charities. My work has consistently been recognised for quality and reliability.

Serving North Yorkshire, Teesside & the North East

Why choose me?

What makes your approach to web design different?

I focus on creating websites that deliver real results, not just look good. With over 20 years of experience in web design, I combine clean coding, user-friendly design, and local SEO to help your North Yorkshire business attract customers online.

What services do you offer as a web designer?

I provide bespoke website design, WordPress development, eCommerce sites, on-page SEO, mobile-responsive design, and ongoing support to help your business grow online.

How does your local knowledge benefit my business?

Being based in Yarm and working across North Yorkshire and Teesside, I understand local markets, customer behaviour and search trends—ensuring your website reaches the right audience.

Can you help if I’m not tech-savvy?

Absolutely. I speak in plain everyday English (without industry jargon) and provide personalised support, including email, phone and one-to-one guidance, so you feel confident managing your site.

Can you tell us a bit about yourself outside of web design?

Sure. As well as being a web designer, I'm also a qualified historian. I live near Yarm with my wife Lorna, who is a silversmith and jeweller. We live with 2 cats, 5 chickens and a bee hive (and yes, I do get stung - from time to time!)

**Don’t just take my word for it..**

My customers consistently give me 5 Star Google reviews
and regularly describe me as helpful, responsive, professional and affordable.
I’m proud to have earned consistent 5-star reviews across Google and independent platforms.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  After two bad experiences with web designers promising a standard and service they fell well short of delivering, Owen and the team at Yarm Webcraft made an outstanding job of my website.

Owen didn’t just listen to my wants and needs, he embellished upon them to a level that displayed understanding, empathy and ability at an exceptional level.

We’ve been working in partnership for two years now and Owen is always available and happy to provide support far beyond his main role of web host.

The value Yarm Webcraft have added to my business is immeasurable, and I couldn’t recommend them any higher than I do.

He listened to our ideas and offered expert advice. Communication has been superb and we are hugely pleased with the results. Owen is a genuine guy and has provided a faultless service. Absolutely no hesitations in recommending him, in fact we were so impressed that we've asked him to create us a website for another business. Excellent! Big thanks from Yarm Studio.
