About
ThatMattGuy is a web design & development studio in the Ribble Valley, building websites and digital tools that help North West businesses look sharp and work smarter.
ThatMattGuy exists because businesses shouldn't have to choose between big-agency prices and DIY website builders. There is a better way: properly engineered digital products, delivered by a local studio that's accountable for the results.
The studio is built on 7+ years of professional experience designing and developing websites, web applications and automation tools — work that has streamlined operations, improved performance and driven growth for established businesses. That same engineering discipline now goes into every client project, whatever the size.
Based in the Ribble Valley and serving the North West, we offer something the big agencies can't: direct access to the people doing the work, honest advice with no upselling, and a genuine stake in the success of the local business community.
How we work
We're always upfront about costs and timeframes, and we won't sell you things you don't need. Everything we build is designed to keep working for you long after launch — not just to look good on day one. Whether you need ongoing support or a one-off build, the standard is the same.
