University Website Design in York
University websites for York institutions, where the real problem is not design but governance. Hundreds of editors across departments, research centres and services publish into one estate, and the course information among it carries consumer law obligations that a page left unrevised for two years quietly breaches.
Why this comes up
The problem
Every department maintains its own pages, course details contradict the prospectus, and nobody can say who owns any given URL.
What you get
What we deliver
- Course information held once and published everywhere it appears
- Material changes to courses handled through a defined process, as consumer law expects
- Editorial ownership assigned per section, with review dates that are enforced
- Public sector accessibility duties met, including a compliant accessibility statement
- International applicant journeys built properly rather than as a translated afterthought
- The estate audited for orphaned and outdated pages, which accumulate at scale here

Working in York
Yorkshire & the Humber
York's economy leans heavily on heritage tourism, and the practical constraint here is often that a visitor-facing system has to handle enormous seasonal swings on a small operator's budget.

University Website Design in York — common questions
- Why does course information carry legal weight?
- Because applicants are consumers making a substantial financial commitment on the strength of what you publish. Guidance for higher education providers is explicit that material information must be accurate and timely, and that changes after an offer are constrained — the website is the primary record of what was promised.
- How is devolved publishing controlled?
- Not by taking editing away, which fails, but by separating structured data from free text. Where fees, durations, entry requirements and modules come from a single system, departments can write about their subject without being able to contradict the facts.
- What do the accessibility rules require?
- Public sector bodies must meet the accessibility standard and publish a statement describing compliance, what is not accessible and why, in the prescribed form. Universities are large enough that this needs an ongoing process rather than a one-off remediation project.
- What should be done about old pages?
- Find them and decide deliberately. A university estate accumulates conference microsites, retired course pages and staff profiles for people who left a decade ago, all of which still rank and still get read — so an inventory with an owner and a review date for each is the only durable answer.
- Do you work with businesses across North Yorkshire?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Yorkshire & the Humber, including York and the surrounding North Yorkshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of York businesses do you usually work with?
- Visitor-facing booking and ticketing systems that handle extreme seasonality on a small operator's budget. Beyond that we work across Tourism & Heritage, Rail Engineering, Bioscience, Retail and Higher Education.
- Do you cover the areas around York?
- Yes — we work throughout Yorkshire & the Humber, including Leeds, Newcastle, Sheffield. York is an urban area of roughly 210,000+, and we take on work across the wider North Yorkshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
