Intelligent websites for local businesses - found first, answering in seconds. Built in Lancashire, winning work across the North West.
Most websites are brochures.
Yours should be intelligent.
Found first. Answering in seconds. Winning the job.
How it works
Three steps. No mystery.

Go further
Tired of explaining your business to AI?
I organise your whole business - services, prices, tone, the way you do things - so the AI you already use answers like it has worked for you for years. I call it your Business Brain, and INKON runs on one.
Meet Violet
The fastest reply wins the job.
Most enquiries go to whoever answers first, and most businesses take hours. A website I build replies to every enquiry in seconds, day or night, qualifies the job and tees up your call for the morning.
This one's a mock-up - Violet, the real thing, is answering on the contact page right now.
Hi, do you do garden fencing? Need about 20 metres replacing in Cleveleys. How much roughly?
Evening! Yes we do - Cleveleys is right on our patch. Quick one so we can price it properly: are the posts staying, or is it the full run? If you can snap a photo of the fence line, Dave will ring you before 9 tomorrow with an exact price.
Proof
You've got seconds to wow them.
Meet Violet
An interactive ink blob in violet and magenta - tap it and ink ripples across the surface. A taste of the design firepower that goes into every build.
Your next customer makes their mind up in seconds, and the design does most of the deciding. A site that stops the scroll, an offer they cannot miss, and the get-in-touch exactly where their thumb expects it. Peter taught me that in 1998: make it look beautiful, make the offer visible, and it turns into new business.
It cuts both ways. A brilliant business with a poor website loses customers without ever knowing. Five-star reviews, then a site that lets the place down, and the booking goes elsewhere. People read your website as the truth about your business, so it had better be telling the right story.
Underneath, every site is tuned for speed, because a beautiful page nobody waits for is no use to anyone. Design, motion and speed, no trade-offs.
In their words
Don't just take my word for it.
“Absolutely perfect work. This company went above and beyond to incorporate all my requests. Nothing was too much trouble and the finished product is 5*.”
“John's work is consistently outstanding. High-quality results at a fraction of the cost of traditional agencies. His deep marketing expertise helps my products and websites stand out in highly competitive niches. I couldn't recommend him more highly.”
The experience behind the studio - and the person you'd be working with - is over on the about page.
What makes us different
Show people the real you.
Before anyone gets in touch, they've checked you out on their phone. I build websites that show them who they're dealing with, so they've half picked you before you've said a word.

From the blog
Straight answers, no jargon.
Plain-English reads on websites, local search and getting found - written for owners, not marketers.
Interview an AI about your own business. It is uncomfortable and it is free.
Six questions to put to ChatGPT, Gemini and the rest about your own business. Free, uncomfortable, and you finish knowing exactly what to write next.
Nobody gets post any more, which is exactly why it works
Email is oversubscribed and the doormat is nearly empty, which has quietly made a printed letter more effective than it was. A biased printer's take on why the letterbox is winning back the moment it lost to the inbox.
You are not building an audience any more. You are leaving evidence.
Social media used to be about building a following. There is a new reader now, and it is not human. What you post is becoming the evidence an AI reads about your business, which quietly changes what is worth posting and where.
