Semi-Custom Recruitment Websites
£499 + VAT PCM for UK clients
Get a homepage that’s designed uniquely for your agency, then build unlimited internal pages using Design Studio. It’s the hybrid option for recruiters who want more than a theme, without the cost and timelines of a fully bespoke design.
Recruitment Website Design
With Semi-Custom, we design a completely custom homepage tailored to your niche, brand, and conversion goals.
For internal pages (like Sectors, Clients, Locations, Salary Guides and About), you use Design Studio to create layouts from a library of components, so you still get a highly individual website.
If your homepage includes custom elements that need to carry through (buttons, cards, styling, section layouts), we mirror those into your internal page components so everything feels consistent.
What’s included:
- A fully custom homepage (unique layout, messaging, visuals, conversion flow).
- Brand styling: colours, typography, icon style, imagery direction.
- Design Studio for internal pages (so you can build unlimited pages and layouts).
- Mirrored design elements from the homepage into internal pages (so the site feels cohesive).
- Mobile-first layout + SEO-friendly structure.
Semi-Custom is ideal if you:
- Want a homepage that looks distinctly yours.
- Want flexibility to build new pages quickly without designer bottlenecks.
- Don’t need every internal page to be individually designed from scratch.
- Want a balance of uniqueness, speed, and cost control.

- Clean page structures.
- SEO-friendly URLs.

This means your website isn’t just live, it’s ready to be found.
We build pages according to the following checklist:
- Can someone answer “what is this?” in 10 seconds from the first screen?
- Is there a single paragraph that could be quoted as the answer?
- Do headings look like the questions people ask?
- Are there proof points (examples, numbers, process, constraints)?
- Is this page clearly the best page on your site for this question?
- Clear, quotable answer near the top.
- Strong structure (headings, bullets, short paragraphs).
- Evidence and specificity (numbers, examples, process).
- Visible trust signals (who, when, why you’re credible).
- One page “owns” one intent (hub + supporting pages).
- Crawlable, accessible content (not hidden behind scripts).
- Honest, matching structured data (schema).
