Own-brand project

Steelhone: a website for my own separate business

An independently developed website for my own consultancy business, Steelhone. The project involved developing a professional online presence, structuring complex service offerings and creating a clear journey for prospective business customers.

Steelhone is my own separate business, not a client. It's in this portfolio to show website design and development. Denny Digital only builds websites, and doesn't offer Steelhone's consultancy services.

// Business context

A very different customer from a local trade

Steelhone sells a technical, fixed-price service to finance and IT leads at UK businesses. Those visitors read carefully, compare suppliers and need to understand exactly what they'd be paying for before they book a call.

So the website couldn't look like a trade site, and it couldn't look like this one. It needed its own identity, and a structure that makes a complicated offer easy to follow.

// Objectives

What the website needed to do

  • Present a credible, independent business to a B2B audience.
  • Explain a complex offer clearly, with a fixed starting point and a price.
  • Let visitors try before they talk, with something useful they can do on the site.
  • Turn interest into a booked call, with an obvious next step on every page.

// Design approach

Quiet, type-led and specific

The design uses a serif headline face, a calm dark palette and plenty of space, so it reads like a considered professional service rather than a sales page. The first screen says exactly what the business does and what it costs to start.

Instead of a list of claims, the homepage shows a sample of the actual deliverable: an interactive preview of the report, clearly marked as sample figures. Visitors see what they'd get before they're asked to do anything.

// Key features

What I designed and built

Brand and structure

  • Its own brand: name, logo, colours and type made to fit the audience
  • Information architecture that takes a complex offer one step at a time
  • Service page structure with scope and price stated plainly

Interactive features

  • An interactive sample report on the homepage
  • A free self-assessment that scores a setup in 10 questions, entirely in the browser
  • Results saved as a PDF, laid out like a page from the paid report

Lead generation and search

  • A clear journey from first visit to self-assessment to booked call
  • Its own domain, with the .co.uk redirecting to the .com
  • Search-ready: sitemap, share images and structured data from day one

// Purpose

What it shows

Steelhone shows the other end of what I build: a business website for a professional, B2B audience, with its own brand, a carefully structured offer and interactive features that do real work. The same approach suits any business with a more involved service to explain.
