Got an email from leicestercodelab.co.uk?
That was me. Leicester Code Lab is the address we send from when we're reaching out to Leicester businesses directly. Same business, same person, no separate company knocking on your door. It's Midlands Code Lab Ltd, registered in England and Wales, run out of Quorn, which is LE12, so we're already in your postcode family. One studio, one phone number. The main site is midlandscodelab.co.uk.
What does a website cost in Leicester?
From £79 a month on the pay-monthly plans, with nothing to pay up front, or from £595 if you'd rather buy it outright. Hosting, updates and a rebuild every couple of years are part of the monthly price. The full table, with what each plan includes, is on the web design page.
Local SEO for Leicester is a £495 one-off: your Google Business Profile sorted, the pages written for the searches people here actually make, and the technical bits Google checks. Details on the local SEO page.
Who have we built for near Leicester?
An EcoVadis-accredited compliance consultancy in Enderby, on Leicester's edge. We built the site and we host it, live since September 2026. Their name isn't ours to publish here until they say so, but the build is real.
What we'd build for your kind of business
Leicester made this country's socks, jumpers and shoes for the better part of two centuries, and it still makes clothes. Next's head office is in Enderby, on the city's south-west edge. Belgrave Road, the Golden Mile, is a long run of independent restaurants, sweet shops and jewellers. The Cultural Quarter, around LCB Depot and Phoenix, has turned old industrial buildings into studios and a cinema, and the covered market has been trading in the city centre for centuries. Each one needs something different from a website.

Questions Leicester businesses ask us
You're in Quorn, not Leicester.
LE12, about ten miles up the A6. Same county, and we don't charge travel. Come and have a coffee in Quorn if you'd rather see where the work happens.
Do you work with Golden Mile businesses?
Yes, and we'd like to do more of it. Independent retail and hospitality is most of what we build.
Can you build the site in more than one language?
Yes, and it's worth doing properly rather than bolting a translate widget on the side. Tell us which languages on the call and we'll price it in.
We're a manufacturer, not a shop.
Then the site has a different job. Trade buyers want spec, lead times, minimum orders and someone to call. That's a different page structure and we've built for it.
Do I own the website?
Yes. The code, the domain and the hosting login are all in your name. If we part ways, you keep the lot.
How will I know it's working?
Every site we build counts its enquiries and taps to call, and you get a short report on the 1st of each month. Search Console tells you what people searched to find you.
Leicester business? Let's have a coffee.
Ten miles away, or a video call if that's easier. Free intro call, no deck, no hard sell.
