What we do
Be found. Stand out. Keep working.
A small studio in East Yorkshire, building for the long run.
Most websites look fine and do nothing. We build ones that get found on Google and in AI answers, make people stop, and keep working for years after launch.
Be found
SEO & AI visibility
Being good isn’t enough if nobody can find you. We put your business where customers look now: at the top of Google, and in the answers ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google’s AI Overviews give.
- Technical SEO
- Local SEO
- Content
- AI visibility
Stand out
Websites
Most sites look fine and are forgotten in seconds. We design and build websites that stand out, load fast and turn a glance into an enquiry, on Webflow, Astro and modern frameworks.

Software
Software should outlast the brief it was written for. We engineer booking systems, customer portals and internal tools, scoped and quoted upfront, and built so your team can keep building on them.

Selected work
Work that wins work.
The studio
Why Valhalla?
- Our studio is a house called Valhalla, just outside Beverley.
- East Yorkshire sits in what was once Jórvík, the Viking kingdom centred on York.
- So: Vikn. The name was too good not to use.
A small studio, by design. You work directly with the person building your project, from the first call to long after launch.

FAQs
Everything you need to know.
What kind of projects do you take on?
We build high-performing websites and bespoke software for ambitious businesses. That includes Webflow websites, custom websites using modern frameworks like Astro and Sanity, Shopify stores, and bespoke web applications, from internal business tools to customer-facing SaaS platforms. If you’re not sure which approach is right, we’ll recommend the solution that best fits your business, not just our preferred technology.
How are projects priced?
All of our website and custom software projects are scoped and quoted upfront. You’ll have a quote before any work takes place.
Do you offer ongoing support after launch?
Yes. Monthly retainer packages are available for both website updates and software maintenance. Every project also includes a post-launch support window so we’re on hand immediately after go-live.
