Website design for accountants, bookkeepers and tax advisers, by an independent studio in East London. Accountant website design at Proxima means a page for each service and each type of client your practice acts for, the firm details the rules require, enquiry forms that ask the right first questions, and accountant SEO so the practice is found for the searches its clients make.

What an accountancy website has to do

Most people find an accountant through a Recommendation, then look the practice up before they call. The website has to confirm what they were told: who the practice acts for, what it does, what it costs, who is qualified, and how to get in touch. Every page on the site is planned to answer those questions First.

[Note] When HMRC surveyed tax agents outside the professional bodies in 2020, 83% said their clients came by recommendation and 6% said by an internet search. A recommended practice still gets looked up, which is the job the website does.

What a practice website from Proxima includes

Websites for accountants and bookkeepers, Built together

Design, copy, the firm details the rules require, enquiry forms and accountant SEO are planned together by one person, so the finished website says what the practice does and is found for it.

Website page layouts being designed on screen
  1. A website designed for your practice

    Designed and built for your firm, its tone and the clients it acts for, rather than adapted from an accountancy theme. The homepage says who the practice is for and what it does in its first screen, because that is what a comparing client reads first.

    • Designed for your firm
    • Mobile first

The pages an accountancy website needs

Accounting firm website design, planned Page by page

A practice website is a set of pages, each with one job. These are the pages most practices need, each written for the client who is looking for it and for the search that brings them there.

  1. Self assessment
  2. Limited company accounts
  3. Bookkeeping
  4. VAT returns
  5. Payroll
  6. Accountants for contractors
  7. Accountants for landlords
  8. Homepage
  9. Accountants for limited companies
  10. Accountants for sole traders
  11. Corporation tax
  12. Making Tax Digital
  13. Key dates
  14. Fees
  15. Contact

Which pages a practice needs depends on its services and its clients, and is settled in the audit at the start of the project. Guides, a team page and a page for each office are added where they earn their place.

The practices these websites are built for

Accountancy websites for every kind of Practice

By ONS count there were 40,615 accountancy businesses in the UK in March 2026 and nine in ten of them employ fewer than ten people. These pages are built for those practices: the sole practitioner, the high street firm and the specialist, not the national network.

  • Sole practitioners

    One accountant, often working from home or a small office, acting for sole traders, landlords and small companies. The website has to make the practice look established and easy to contact, and say clearly who it is for.

    • Sole practitioner
    • Self assessment
    • Small companies
  • High street firms

    A practice with an office on a high street or in a business park, drawing clients from its own town and the villages around it. Local search matters most: the town belongs in the page titles, and the office needs a Google Business Profile.

    • Local SEO
    • Google Business Profile
    • Town pages
  • Chartered and certified firms

    Firms of ICAEW, ACCA or ICAS members with partners, staff and a wider range of work. The website carries the description and the logo the body permits, profiles for the people clients will deal with, and a page for each service.

    • ICAEW
    • ACCA
    • Partner profiles
  • Bookkeeping practices

    Bookkeepers and AAT licensed members offering bookkeeping, VAT and payroll to small businesses. Websites for bookkeepers explain what is done each month and how the client sends their records, and link to the software the practice uses.

    • Bookkeeping
    • VAT and payroll
    • AAT licensed
  • Tax specialists

    Practices built around one kind of work, such as contractor accounts, landlord tax or company formation. The website goes deep on that work, with the questions those clients ask answered on the page.

    • Contractor accounts
    • Landlord tax
    • Specialist pages
  • Online practices

    Practices that act for clients anywhere and meet them by video. The website carries the whole first conversation: what the service includes, how records are shared, and how to start, with an enquiry form and a booking link.

    • Video meetings
    • Onboarding
    • Booking link

What every practice website carries

Accountancy web design that shows what the rules Require

The firm details the rules require

A company must show its registered name, its registered number, where it is registered and its registered office on its website, and every service provider has to make its legal status, contact details, VAT number, professional body where it has one, and insurance details available. They are set out where a client and a regulator expect to find them.

Companies Act 2006, s.82
Registered name on every company website
Trading Disclosures Regulations 2015
Number, place of registration and registered office
Provision of Services Regulations 2009
Legal status, VAT number, professional body, insurance
E-Commerce Regulations 2002
Name, address, email and register details

The dates your clients search for

31 JanOnline self assessment return and payment deadline

Clients search for deadlines more than for accountants. A page for each date, kept current, brings them to the practice that answers the question.

  • 31 Jan: Online self assessment return and payment deadline
  • 5 April: The tax year ends; the next one begins on 6 April
  • 6 Apr 2026: Making Tax Digital for Income Tax begins, for income over £50,000
  • 31 Oct: Paper self assessment return deadline
  • 9 months: After the year end, accounts are due at Companies House

Accountant website design questions

Website design for accountants: your Questions answered

  • Every practice website at Proxima is quoted on enquiry, so the figure matches the site your practice needs. A sole practitioner who needs a sharp professional site usually suits the Presence package. Most high street and specialist practices choose Authority, which adds SEO optimised service and client type pages, blog integration, Core Web Vitals work and Google Search Console setup. Firms with several offices or partners sit on Dominance. Book a free discovery call and you will have a written quote within a few days.

  • It depends on the package and on how many services and client types the site covers. A Presence build is the quickest, Authority takes longer and Dominance longer again. You get a firm timeline on the proposal. Content is the usual cause of delay on a practice website, so the service page copy is planned at the start rather than left to the end.

  • A homepage that says who the practice acts for and what it does, a page for each service, a page for each kind of client, a fees page or a clear route to a quote, the firm details the rules require, profiles of the people clients will deal with, and an enquiry form with click to call. Practices that serve one town add a page for the town; practices with several offices add a page for each office.

  • A limited company or LLP must show its registered name, its registered number, the part of the UK it is registered in and its registered office address on its website, under the Companies Act 2006 and the Trading Disclosures Regulations 2015. Every service provider has to make its legal status, contact details, VAT number where registered, professional body and title where it belongs to one, terms and any professional indemnity insurance details available under the Provision of Services Regulations 2009, and a website is one of the places the regulations allow. Every Proxima build sets these out and links the complaints procedure and the privacy notice from the enquiry form.

  • Yes. By law anyone can call themselves an accountant, but 'chartered accountant', 'chartered certified accountant' and the letters after a member's name are controlled by the professional bodies, and each body has rules on who may use its logo and how a firm may describe itself. The website carries the description and the logo your body permits for your firm, and names your anti-money-laundering supervisor.

  • A template gives every practice that uses it the same site, and most accountancy websites are built on one, which is why they look alike and rank alike. A Proxima website is designed for your practice and written for the searches your clients make, and it is built on a visual editor, so you keep the ease of editing a builder gives without the sameness.

  • That is what the local SEO in the build is for. Your Google Business Profile is set up for the office's exact address, the pages name the town or borough as well as the service, and schema markup states where the practice is and what it does. Rankings in the map results also depend on reviews arriving steadily, which the build sets up for and the SEO Growth Plan keeps working on after launch.

  • Yes. The site links to the booking, client portal and onboarding tools the practice already uses, so a new client can book a first call, send records and sign an engagement letter from the page they landed on. The tools stay yours; the website is built around them.

  • Yes. Copywriting is part of every build. Each service page is written for the client who needs that service and for the search they make, and the facts on it, such as the self assessment deadline of 31 January or the start of Making Tax Digital for Income Tax on 6 April 2026, are checked against gov.uk before the page goes live. You review every page before launch.

  • Yes. Websites for bookkeepers, AAT licensed members, tax advisers and payroll bureaus follow the same process as a build for a chartered firm: the audit, the page plan, the firm details and the launch checks, with the services and the search plan adapted to the practice.

  • Yes. The website, the domain and the content belong to the practice. You can take full ownership whenever you choose, and ongoing management through a Website Care Plan is optional.
