# Proxima > Proxima is an independent London web design studio. Bespoke web design, SEO and copywriting for small UK businesses, held by one point of view. Proxima is an independent web design studio based in London, United Kingdom, run by Neda Yavari (Founder and Creative Director). It is one person, not an agency or a team. The studio designs, builds, writes and optimises websites for small and medium independent UK businesses, and works across the whole of the United Kingdom. Typical clients: professional services (solicitors, accountants, consultants, financial advisers, surveyors, architects), private healthcare practices (dentists, private GPs, clinics, therapists, opticians, physiotherapists), and home and trade services (builders, electricians, plumbers, decorators, roofers, landscapers). Not offered: ecommerce and Shopify builds, hospitality work, and enterprise or VC-backed engagements. ## Services - **Creative Direction & Consulting**: Your brand is the reason someone chooses you over everyone else. One point of view holds the positioning, the visual identity and every touchpoint together, so the choice feels obvious. - **End-to-End Website Creation**: From the first wireframe to the final deploy, we craft websites that are as performant as they are beautiful, built bespoke around your brand, not a template. - **Search Engine Optimisation (SEO)**: Visibility you can measure. We engineer the technical foundations and content strategy that earn rankings the search engines actually trust. - **Content Marketing & Copywriting**: Words that work as hard as your design. From web copy to long-form content, we craft the language that gives your brand a voice, and gives your audience a reason to listen. ## How the studio charges and how long work takes Every engagement is quoted bespoke on enquiry.
