Web design in Cornwall
We are a Penzance software studio that designs websites and builds custom software for businesses the length of Cornwall, from the far west to the Tamar. Hand-coded, fast, and held to the same standard as the SaaS platforms we run ourselves.

Whealbit is a Cornwall-based web design and software company in Penzance. We hand-code websites and bespoke software for businesses across the county, from holiday lets in St Ives to professional firms in Truro and trades in Camborne. Every build scores 99 to 100 on Google PageSpeed, and you see your homepage live before you pay anything.
Built for how Cornwall actually works
Cornwall's economy runs on tourism and hospitality, food and drink, marine and fishing, construction and trades, agriculture, and a fast-growing tech and creative sector around Truro, Falmouth and Penryn. It is also seasonal, rural and spread thin: a business in Penzance is two hours from one in Bude. A website is often the first, and sometimes the only, way a customer two hours away, or two hundred miles away, meets your business.
Why a Cornwall business should not settle for a template
Most Cornish businesses are sold a template on WordPress or a page-builder, then left to fight it. We do the opposite. We write the code by hand so the site stays fast on a patchy 4G signal in a granite-walled village, ranks for the towns you actually want work from, and does exactly what your business needs. Because we run our own platforms across the UK, we build yours to the same bar.

Common questions about web design in Cornwall
Do you only work with businesses in Cornwall?
No. We are based in Penzance and love working with Cornish businesses, but we build for clients across the UK. Being in Cornwall just means we understand the seasonal, rural and tourism-led realities a lot of our local clients work with.
Can we meet in person?
If you are in Cornwall, yes, we are happy to come to you or meet somewhere central like Truro. For clients further afield we run everything over email, call and a shared private link, and it works just as well.
How much does a website cost in Cornwall?
Whealbit websites are pay monthly, from £60 a month with nothing up front. That covers the design and build, fast UK hosting, a domain registered in your name, professional email, a client portal and ongoing updates as your business grows. Larger and bespoke builds are quoted as one monthly figure, agreed before we start. Full detail is on our pricing page.
