Websites built to bring in work.
Mapletree Studio is a UK web design and development studio building clear, fast, conversion-focused websites: landing pages, full business websites, redesigns, performance and technical SEO, content systems, ongoing support, and custom web tools.
Websites, and everything
that makes them work.
No abstract disciplines. Pick the website work you need, from a single landing page to a full build, a redesign, and the performance, search, and support that keep it bringing in enquiries.
- 01 Landing Pages A single, fast page built to convert. For campaigns, new offers, paid traffic, and local lead generation.
- 02 Full Websites Multi-page custom websites for businesses that need a credible, search-ready base. Hand-coded on Astro, no templates.
- 03 Website Redesigns Restructure and rebuild a site that feels dated, slow, or unclear into something fast, focused, and easy to grow.
- 04 Ongoing Website Support Hosting, updates, content changes, monitoring, and steady improvement. The site stays fast, secure, and current.
- 05 Performance & Search Foundations Speed, Core Web Vitals, technical SEO, structure, and schema, so the right people find you and the site loads in under a second.
- 06 Content & Blog Systems Useful content planning and publishing around your business, with optional AI-assisted drafting kept human-approved.
- 07 Custom Web Tools Forms, calculators, portals, dashboards, and quote tools that do a real job on top of the website.
- 08 Practical Automation & AI Behind-the-scenes automation and AI-assisted workflows that make the website easier to run. A supporting capability, not the headline.

How a website gets made.
A four-step build. Diagnose, design, build, launch. Same shape on a landing page, a full site, or a redesign.
- 01
Diagnose
We map your goals, audience, and competitors, and define exactly what each page has to do.
- 02
Design
We shape the messaging and visual system around how your buyers actually decide.
- 03
Build
Hand-coded on Astro in tight loops, pressure-tested for speed, search, and clarity.
- 04
Launch
We ship, measure, and stay on for content, updates, and steady improvement.
Mapletree Studio website process
A four-step website build: diagnose goals and audience, design the messaging and layout, build it hand-coded on Astro, and launch with ongoing content and support.
Website clarity audit.
Not sure where the site is losing you enquiries? We run a fixed-price website clarity audit, covering messaging, structure, speed, and search, and hand back a prioritised list of what to fix. If a rebuild makes sense, we scope it. If it does not, we say so.
- Typical scope
- About a week. Your current site reviewed end to end.
- Outcome
- A prioritised, plain-English list of what to fix.

Where automation helps.
AI and automation sit behind the website, never in front of it. We use them only where they make delivery faster or the site easier to run, and always with a person approving the output.
- 01
Content drafting support
Faster first drafts for blog posts, page copy, and updates. Every word is edited and approved by a person before it goes anywhere near the live site.
BUILT AROUND:blog and page drafts, repurposing, outlines, brand-voice editing, human approval gates.
- 02
Reporting summaries
Plain-English summaries of what the site is doing. Traffic, search, and conversion, readable at a glance, without building a deck.
BUILT AROUND:traffic summaries, conversion snapshots, monthly recaps, leadership-ready reporting.
- 03
Search & content research
Quicker keyword, topic, and competitor research that feeds the content plan, so posts are aimed at terms people actually search.
BUILT AROUND:keyword research, topic maps, competitor scans, content briefs, search-intent mapping.
- 04
Internal workflow helpers
Small behind-the-scenes tools that route enquiries, prep proposals, and cut admin, so the work around the website runs with less friction.
BUILT AROUND:enquiry routing, proposal prep, internal admin reduction, lightweight helpers.
- 05
Form & enquiry triage
Smarter intake on the site. Forms and guided flows that sort and route enquiries before they reach a human, so the right ones get attention first.
BUILT AROUND:intake flows, guided questionnaires, enquiry triage, routing, scoping support.
- 06
Always human-approved
Nothing goes live without a person checking it. Automation and AI assist the work; they never make the call on what your business says or ships.
BUILT AROUND:human-in-the-loop review, approval gates, no autonomous publishing, accountable output.
