Web design · Singapore, UAE & India
Web Design & Development for websites that bring in enquiries, not just compliments.
“Our website looks fine, but it doesn’t bring in any enquiries.”
I’m Manivasagam. I design and build fast, SEO-ready websites, with a small team of developers I trust on bigger builds. You deal only with me, from the first call to launch.

How I build
What makes a website bring in work.
Five things every site I build gets right, in the order visitors notice them.
-
Loads before they give up
Under two seconds on a phone, 90+ on Lighthouse. Slow sites lose visitors before the headline even appears.
-
Says what you do, instantly
A headline a stranger understands in three seconds: what you do, where, and why you.
-
One clear next step
A single main action, plus WhatsApp and call buttons that work properly on mobile.
-
Proof before they scroll
Reviews and recognisable clients near the top, where hesitant visitors decide.
-
Found on Google from day one
Titles, descriptions, schema and clean structure built in, not bolted on after launch.
Home repairs in Singapore, done the same day.
Plumbing, electrical and carpentry by vetted local pros.
What I build
From a five-page site to a custom web app.
I pick the platform that fits your goals and budget, not the one I happen to prefer.
-
Business websites
Multi-page sites for companies: services, team, case studies and contact, built to turn visitors into enquiries.
-
Personal brand sites
Portfolio and authority sites for consultants, coaches and freelancers who want to stand out.
-
E-commerce
Online stores on WooCommerce or Shopify, from product catalogue to payment gateway and checkout.
-
Custom development
React, Next.js or Astro when WordPress isn’t enough: faster, more flexible, built to scale.
-
Web applications
Booking systems, dashboards, portals, calculators and internal tools, scoped to your process.
-
Care after launch
Updates, backups, speed checks and small changes, so the site stays fast and secure.

Getting started
From first call to launch.
A typical business website takes three to five weeks. Here’s how it runs.
- Week 1
Discovery & plan
A free 30-minute call, then a sitemap and content list, so we agree what the site needs before any design.
- Week 2
Design in Figma
Wireframes first, then a full visual design for your approval before a single line of code is written.
- Weeks 3–4
Build & test
Clean code, mobile testing, speed optimisation and SEO foundations set up.
- Week 5
Launch & handoff
Hosting, domain and analytics set up, plus a walkthrough so you can update content yourself.
Honest fit check
Is a new website what you need?
Sometimes the answer is no. Better to hear it before you spend.
A good fit if…
- You need a website that brings in enquiries, not just one that looks good.
- You want to update text and images yourself after launch.
- You care about speed and Google from day one.
- Your budget fits the scope. Business sites typically start from SGD 2,000–5,000 or AED 3,000–8,000.
Probably not a fit if…
- You want the cheapest template site possible.
- Your site already works and you just need more visitors. SEO may be the better spend. See SEO →
- You need leads while the new site is being built. Google Ads can bridge the gap. See Google Ads →
Questions
What people ask before starting.
How much does a professional website cost?
It depends on scope. A business or personal brand site typically starts from SGD 2,000–5,000 (or AED 3,000–8,000). E-commerce and web apps are priced on features. You get a detailed proposal after a free discovery call, with no hidden costs.
WordPress or custom development?
WordPress suits most business sites: cost-effective, easy to update, with plugins for SEO, e-commerce and forms. Custom development (React, Next.js, Astro) is right when you need specific functionality, a web app, or a site that must scale. I’ll recommend what fits your goals and budget.
How long does it take to build a website?
A business website typically takes three to five weeks from kickoff to launch. E-commerce takes four to eight weeks depending on products and integrations. Web apps are scoped individually, always with milestone-based delivery.
Will my website be optimised for SEO?
Yes. Every site includes SEO foundations: title tags and descriptions, semantic HTML, schema markup, fast loading, Core Web Vitals, mobile layouts and clean URLs. Ongoing SEO is a separate service I also offer.
Do you build e-commerce websites?
Yes, on WooCommerce, Shopify or a custom platform: product catalogue, payment gateway, cart and checkout, inventory and conversion-focused product pages, for clients across Singapore, the UAE and India.
Who actually builds the site?
I design it and manage it end to end, and you deal only with me. On bigger builds, a small team of developers I trust helps with the heavy lifting.
You’ll deal with me, from first call to launch.
Send me your current site, or just your idea, and I’ll tell you honestly what I’d change first. It’s free.
