There's more to web design than building websites.

Gorilla Web Design is run by people who understand business from the inside — not just the web design side of it.

About Gorilla Web Design

Gorilla Web Design is a small web design agency based in West Sussex. We specialise exclusively in Squarespace — building websites for local businesses, tradespeople and growing companies, and looking after them on an ongoing basis.

The business is built on a simple belief: that small businesses deserve the same quality of web design and digital thinking as larger companies, without the agency markup, the account managers, or the jargon.

When you work with us, you deal directly with the person doing the work — from the first conversation through to launch and beyond.

A different kind of web designer

Before focusing on web design, we spent many years in senior business roles — which shapes how we approach every client project.

We know what it's like to need a website that actually generates enquiries. We know what it's like to work with suppliers who overpromise and underdeliver. And we know that most small business owners don't have time for lengthy processes, complicated proposals, or technical explanations that go nowhere.

That business experience — combined with over fifteen years of hands-on work building websites across multiple platforms — is why we work the way we do. Straightforward, honest, and focused on what actually matters to your business.

We now build exclusively on Squarespace — not because it's the easiest option, but because after years of working across different platforms, we're confident it's the right choice for most small businesses. It's secure, fast, easy to manage, and built to last.

Squarespace Platinum Partner

We hold Platinum Partner status within Squarespace Circle — the highest tier available globally. This reflects the volume and quality of work we've delivered on the platform, and gives us early access to new features and a deeper technical understanding of how Squarespace works under the bonnet.

It's one of the reasons we're confident recommending Squarespace to our clients — and one of the reasons our clients trust us to get the most out of it.

How we work

Honest advice, always.

We'll tell you what your business actually needs — even if that means recommending a simpler solution than you expected. We'd rather give you the right answer than the most expensive one.
Direct access to the people doing the work.

There are no account managers here. When you get in touch, you speak to the person who designed and built your site — someone who knows it inside out.
In it for the long term.

Most of our clients come to us through word of mouth and stay with us for years. That's the kind of relationship we aim to build with everyone we work with.
