What we work out before anything is designed

We plan the site structure around how your customers search: one page per service line and a hub for people comparing options. On a full design-and-build project, this is what we settle with you first.

    • Blog Guides linking to each service
The live site structure, with the main call to action on each page. Read the case study
  1. Discovery call

    Your goals, your customers, the features you need, the sites you like and dislike, the platform and the timeline, all written up.

  2. Competitor audit

    Three to five competitor sites reviewed for design, navigation, features, content, calls to action and SEO, plus what to borrow and where to do better.

  3. Sitemap and navigation

    Every page with its next step named, no more than six or seven items in the main menu, and the key paths mapped, such as home to service to contact.

  4. Content plan

    What each page needs, who writes it, and by when.

  5. Signed off in writing

    You sign off the sitemap before any design starts.

From wireframe to signed-off design

On a full design-and-build project, we wireframe your key pages, mobile layouts included, then design the home page and two or three inner pages in Figma at desktop, tablet and mobile sizes. We walk you through the decisions, with up to two rounds of revisions, and nothing gets built until you approve the design in writing.

GetATaxi's home page: a headline naming the Auckland taxi and airport transfer service, the fixed airport fare in the opening paragraph, and a fare quote form beside it
A site we designed and built for an airport transfer company.
  1. The headline names the service and the city, so people know straight away they are in the right place.

  2. The page leads with the real offer, fixed fare included. We design with your actual content, so the layout fits what you need to say.

  3. A short quote form sits beside the headline, with a label above every field.

  4. The phone number sits in the header, where people look for it.

Redesigning without losing the traffic you already have

A new design shouldn't cost you the search traffic your old site earned. On a redesign, this is how we protect it.

  1. Every page audited

    We crawl your current site and tag every page keep, update, remove or merge.

  2. Your baseline saved

    We export your current Search Console and Google Analytics figures, so the new site is measured against them.

  3. A redirect map

    Every URL that changes gets a destination in the redirect map.

  4. Redirects checked after launch

    The 301 redirects go live at launch, and Search Console is checked for crawl errors in the days after.

A WordPress site we replaced. Around 50 permanent redirects send every old URL to its new page. Read the case study

Tracking and search set up before launch, not after

Your site goes live already recording the enquiries sent through its forms, with everything search engines read in place from the start.

  1. 01

    Form sent

    Someone sends one of your enquiry forms.

  2. 02

    Google Tag Manager

    Your tags are managed in one place and tested in Tag Manager preview before launch.

  3. 03

    GA4 conversion

    Your enquiry forms are set up as conversions in Google Analytics 4.

  4. 04

    Your ad platforms

    If you run Google or Meta ads, their conversion tags go in with the site.

Search setup we build in

What goes into the site before it launches.

  • Titles, canonicals and sitemap

    A title and description for every page, canonical URLs, an XML sitemap and robots.txt.

  • Schema for your business

    Schema markup for your business and its pages, such as LocalBusiness, BreadcrumbList and FAQ.

  • llms.txt

    A plain-text summary of your business written for AI tools.

  • Submitted on launch day

    Your sitemap goes to Google and Bing, and indexing is requested for your key pages.

What we check before you see the staging site

Your site is built on a private staging site first. Before it comes to you for approval, it goes through our checklist.

The same site on desktop and phone. Read the case study
  1. Five screen widths

    Built mobile first and tested at 375, 768, 1024, 1440 and 1920 pixels wide, with no sideways scrolling and text that is easy to read.

  2. Every common browser

    Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Edge on desktop, Safari on iPhone, Chrome on Android, and tablet.

  3. Forms, links and content

    Every form submitted and its notification received, phone and email links checked on mobile, and a 404 page in place for broken or mistyped links. No placeholder text, contact details checked, privacy policy and terms live.

  4. Search and sharing

    One H1 per page, schema validated, no stray noindex, and social sharing tags set.

  5. Security and accessibility

    SSL with no mixed content and backups on. Alt text, colour contrast, keyboard navigation and form labels checked on the pages we build.

  6. Speed, without a promised score

    We tune speed and check Core Web Vitals before launch. We don't promise a PageSpeed score, because the score moves with every image and plugin you add later.

What happens at launch, and after it

Launch day is planned in advance, and our part doesn't stop when the site goes live.

  1. 01

    Before the switch

    Your written approval on the staging site, backups of the staging site and your old site, and a launch time agreed with you.

  2. 02

    Go-live

    Your domain switched over, https and www redirects working, staging blocks removed, forms re-tested on the live site, and tracking confirmed firing.

  3. 03

    First checks

    We watch the site on launch day, then send you a launch confirmation. In the days after, we check Search Console for crawl errors and confirm the redirects.

  4. 04

    Training

    Soon after launch, a recorded session on editing pages, posting to the blog and managing forms. The recording is yours to keep.

  5. 05

    Support

    For 30 days after launch: weekly check-ins, bug fixes, and up to two rounds of minor content edits as set out in your agreement.

  6. 06

    Review

    A look at your first Google Analytics and Search Console data, with the source and date range for every number. Then you choose: Sitecare, an SEO retainer, or a clean handover.

Built on the platform that suits the job

We choose the platform to fit how your business runs. Whichever one you're on, a recorded training session shows you how to run it.

  1. WordPress and WooCommerce

    When your team needs to manage products and content itself.

    Windsor Industries' WooCommerce home page
  2. Astro

    Fast sites for service businesses.

    Tiger Tint & Wrap's home page, built on Astro
  3. Hand-coded

    No theme or page builder, when the site itself has to prove the brand.

    Paragon's hand-coded home page
  4. Next.js with WooCommerce

    A fast storefront, with WooCommerce kept behind it for managing the store.

We’ve been working with Jason from Lucid Media and couldn’t recommend him more. He’s been a fast communicator, proactive, and always willing to help. Jason goes above and beyond with providing recommendations and support.

The websites he’s built and implemented for us have been excellent. He has captured our business perfectly and ensured that it is user friendly on both desktop/mobile. Fantastic service!

Google review
Terry Bradley Director, Precision Building Inspectors

Jason and his team have been fantastic to work with from the initial website design and with the ongoing maintenance. They built us a really professional and well-designed site that represents our business well and it has been great having their continued support.

It is nice to know someone reliable can manage our website and make sure it stays ranking on Google. They are always responsive when we need updates or changes made, and their technical expertise gives us peace of mind.

I have been working with Jason for a year now and he is absolutely brilliant, honest and reliable. His client first approach has meant his work is always on time and to a high standard.

Most of all he actually gets the results he says he will.

Communication with him is always smooth and effortless. The website he created for me exceeded my expectations in every way. I’m genuinely impressed with both the design and the overall structure.

I’m looking forward to seeing what else the website can bring to me. If you’re thinking about building a website, Jason is definitely the person to go to.

Samir Khanna Director, Professional Financial

Working with Jason @ Lucid Media on our website was a great experience from start to finish. Jason brought our vision to life with creativity and professionalism; he understood what we were after, and this could be seen in the result.

The design is clean and modern, and the functionality is exactly what we needed. Communication was smooth throughout the entire process, and deadlines were always met. Highly recommend to anyone looking for top-tier web design and development.

Google review
Alex Mayo Owner, Playceholdr

I had Lucid Media do some SEO work for us and I'm super impressed with the results. Jason also took the time to educate me deeply on the topic so I didn't feel like everything was smoke and mirrors like I have had with previous agencies.

Google review
Britta Friedrich Manager, MagicGerman

Working with Lucid Media was an excellent experience from start to finish. They took the time to thoroughly analyse our previous website, understand our product, and align with our company goals before creating a new, professional layout and copy.

They truly went above and beyond, exceeding expectations at every step. I genuinely enjoyed the collaboration and look forward to working with them again in the future.

Melitta Adam Founder, Melitta Skin

I had a call with Jason and was so impressed by how in-depth it was. He really listened, understood where I’m at, and gave me a clear action plan that I can actually use.

It was practical, straightforward, and made me feel confident moving forward with my ads. I couldn’t recommend working with him enough.

“We wanted to bring our idea for an app to life. He turned our ideas into reality.”

Andrew Harvey Director, AES Comp

Lucid Media provides great service, quickly establishing and refining our website. They are always available to us when we need changes made.

Expert in SEO which is critical, our company now ranks at the top of Google searches, alongside our international suppliers but ahead of other agents around the world. We totally recommend Lucid as a highly competent and committed website developer and manager.

Ratu Tau Trekway Shuttle

We had previously used another digital company for our website and digital marketing… things went downhill quickly, and our business suffered badly.

Within 30 minutes, we were on a Teams meeting discussing the problems we were facing. By 2am, Jason had sent us a detailed report… By 4pm, our Google Ads were back up and running.

Everything was turned around in less than 24 hours… seeing results that quickly was honestly incredible.

Jason and the team at Lucid Media have helped get our business back on solid ground… Young, full of energy, passionate, and genuinely driven to help businesses succeed.

Alex Fladgate Owner, JunkBoss

Jason created our JunkBoss company website from start to finish. He always responded immediately, shared great ideas, and the final site looks spectacular!!

Highly recommend to anyone looking to get their website done.

“They took the time to understand our vision and business needs, translating them into a stunning, user-friendly website.”

Isaac Smith Managing Director, PSI

Communication was insanely good, the work Jason provided me with was on a new level and blew me away. If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond for you then he is your man.

Google review
Tyler Newman Tillen Finance

From the start, Jason has taken the time to understand my business properly rather than just pushing a generic marketing setup. We’ve built out a new website, landing pages, CRM integration, Google Ads and Meta campaigns, and the attention to detail across everything has been excellent.

What stands out most is his responsiveness and willingness to adapt quickly. Any time we’ve needed changes or seen something in the data, he’s on it straight away and is always looking for ways to improve performance rather than just letting campaigns run.

The key difference is that he genuinely feels invested in the success of the business, not just running ads in the background.

Brianna Hoy, Managing Director, PplPeople
“He was really acting in our best interests and went beyond what we were expecting him to achieve.”
Brianna Hoy Managing Director, PplPeople
Fiona Ashford Manager, Fee Funders

When the finance company I manage, Fee Funders, changed ownership, Lucid Media took over all aspects of our IT and technology, and the impact has been outstanding. Jason quickly learned our legacy systems, implemented critical changes during the transition, and then led the development of our new software platform and reporting systems.

Jason is exceptional across all areas of technology, both front-end and back-end. He’s practical, solutions-focused, and genuinely understands business needs as well as the technical side.

Lynnae Sands Manager, Windsor Industries

Jason has been awesome to work with over the last few months. Whenever we've had any sort of issue with our website, he is extremely prompt in resolving it. Very professional and helpful, I highly recommend.

The team at Lucid Media have provided excellent service while recently coming in to help position J-Tip It to where they need to be!

We are absolutely blown away with their quick responses, smooth customer service and their initiative to stay 10-steps ahead at all times. Results are immediate and the cost is undeniably justified.

If you want to be in safe hands, choose Lucid!
