Codeguys

Based in Chester, this agency works with growing businesses across Liverpool, Manchester and the wider North West, covering sectors that range from local tourism and charities to SME contracting and payroll services. The team is small, and the portfolio material points to direct, hands-on relationships with clients rather than large-scale account management, with work spanning local service businesses, charitable organisations and SMEs needing operational tools. The service range covers web design, SEO, AI development, IT managed services and mobile app development, with described projects illustrating how these are applied in practice. SEO work includes local optimisation, technical fixes, content optimisation and internal linking strategy, with one case citing a rise in monthly organic clicks over a six-month period. Web design work includes bespoke, accessible builds with attention to site structure and bilingual functionality, as shown in a charity website built with an English-Thai language toggle. On the software side, the agency has built a custom CRM system with API integration to synchronise contractor data with a payroll platform, handling tasks such as onboarding automation, tax and banking data mapping, and postcode normalisation to reduce manual data entry. Additional listed services include iOS app development, hosting and ongoing technical support, positioning the agency to handle both the initial build and continued maintenance of client websites and systems.
