Thrive Digital is a design agency specialising in web and digital marketing which is run by Andy Lang, based in Ampfield between Winchester and Romsey in Hampshire.
We’ve almost 20 years experience, and have over 50 customers, most of whom are local businesses, operating across a wide variety of sectors. The internet has utterly changed the landscape of business, particularly in terms of customer acquisition and retention, but our depth of knowledge and practical experience, gives us a deep understanding and reliable approach to achieving results.
Our philosophy is simple; by taking the time to really understand our customers’ businesses and goals, in turn we will only give the best advice and solutions.
We built 4 product-focused microsites for AlphaLabs to help build awareness through very focused SEO for some of their important and emerging products. Each of the four sites, whilst delivering unique sets of content, share a common visual DNA.
Heat Hampshire required a friendly, but eye-catching website that provided potential clients with multiple channels to maximise enquiries. The site also needed to rank extremely well for organic SEO.

We consult, design, build and deploy responsive and mobile-friendly websites for small and medium-sized companies that are serious about customer acquisition & retention and generating revenue online.
If you’re starting from scratch, or re-developing an existing website, we can offer all of the associated services, including domains, email and robust business-class hosting packages.
Good SEO strategy begins with a solid website foundation, and we can enhance this with ad hoc or fixed price solutions for ongoing advice, content marketing, email marketing and online ad campaigns.
Whether you need to control your content regularly or want to sell to a global audience online, we will help you choose the right technology framework to support your business goals.
We believe that every client should own their website, regardless of the agency. For that reason we only build on open source frameworks that are free, transferrable and can be worked on by any developer.
Server monitoring is standard across all of our hosted solutions. Additionally we can offer ad hoc or fixed price packages for ongoing support and consultancy, so your website’s always healthy and up to date.

Absolutely.
We’ve designed packages that have everything you need including:
It’s difficult to answer this until we’ve discussed your business requirements. Much like buying a car it depends on the quality and the specification you need.
However, for most small businesses our fixed-price packages that include absolutely everything you need are ideal. Prices for these start at £1995 for a 5 page site. Additional pages are charged at £150/page. Our recommended WordPress+ package represents great value for a 10 page site, with a saving of £250 versus the basic package.
Our pricing is completely transparent and there are no hidden costs.
You’ll find that unlike most agencies, we are completely up front about our prices. The reason for this is that we believe in the quality of our service and that the prices offer excellent value for money.
Honestly no.
No one can promise this, well not without throwing an enormous amount of money and time at it.
We can however work for or with you on a sensible budget to establish the core elements for a good SEO strategy, namely:
We’ve delivered some outstanding SEO results across a variety of sectors. If you’d like to view some examples of the SEO work and the ranks we’ve achieved for our clients take a look at the SEO projects from our portfolio.
You could do it yourself, and there are plenty of website builder solutions out there that promise you a cheap and easy way to build your own website. Squarespace and Wix are examples.
Whilst on face value these companies do a great job of making it look really easy, the reality is that they just don’t measure up in the long run. The visual part of the website you actually see is just a small part of the technical detail necessary to create a website that will work and deliver results.
Here’s a few important reasons why you’d be far better off getting your site built professionally:
The bottom line is that if you’re considering building your own site to save money, in the long run it’ll cost you more in time wasted and missed opportunities. You’ll be far better off if you cost a well-built website into your business plan.
If you’re in any doubt ask yourself this: Would you expect an amateur to be able do your job as well as you?
The chances are the answer’s no. If you’re in business because you’re excellent at what you do, you’ll earn far more by focusing on that, and letting us do an excellent job on your website.
In most cases we build our websites using one of the world’s most popular website platforms called WordPress. Occasionally we will build sites using static html files or in Magento if enterprise level e-commerce is needed.
Well, this website is running on WordPress. It’s our most popular website framework, and now the internet’s leading open source content management system, which powers over 25% of all websites online today.
Essential business class hosting on a fast and scalable infrastructure, with no limits on data storage, databases or bandwidth.
Technical support is provided via phone and email at our ad hoc support rate of £60 / hour.
Our recommended hosting solution; your site is installed on one of our high-performance Virtual Private Servers (VPS), and in addition, we will monitor and backup your website and maintain the site’s software on a regular basis. This will guard against hackers & viruses, and ensure that your site is optimised, runs fast and stays healthy.
In the unlikely event your site is compromised, then rest assured we’ve got it covered.
We will proactively help you to optimise your site’s ranking on search engines like Google through SEO. We will monitor your position and update your website’s content and images to establish, maintain and improve your rank on an ongoing basis.
This is our recommended and most popular SEO package, which offers great value and a big saving versus our ad hoc support rates.
This is as per our SEO support, except that we will perform a detailed monthly review of your SEO. Frequent checks and a hands-on proactive strategy can provide not only fast results but sustained growth over long periods.
This is a popular support package for businesses who are growing, and one that offers great value and a big saving versus our ad hoc support rates. You should choose this package if you want to run online advertising like Google Adwords.
No two websites are quite the same, and this applies to support too. If our normal support packages fall short, we will design a complete SLA (service level agreement), to help you achieve your business goals by assisting you to update your website’s content and images, and work on your SEO and digital marketing for a pre-agreed amount of hours or days per month.
A retained support contract offers exceptional value and a very significant saving versus our ad hoc support rate.
