The DK difference

Not your average agency.

Most agencies are marketers who've never built an audience. We're creators who've built our own into the hundreds of millions — and worked with some of the biggest brands on earth. Here's what that means for you.

// Typical agency

  • Marketers who've never grown an audience themselves
  • Does one thing, outsources the rest to freelancers
  • Reports likes and impressions you can't bank
  • Templated, slow websites that all look the same
  • Big invoices, junior staff, long lock-in contracts

// DK Media

  • Founded by creators with 100M+ views of their own
  • Web, social, video, ads & strategy — all under one roof
  • Measured on leads & revenue, not vanity metrics
  • Fast, custom sites built to convert, not to fill space
  • Direct access to the team, clear scope, no jargon

What we do

Websites first. Everything else when you need it.

Most clients start with a website and add content or ads later, once the phone is already ringing. We'll only recommend what actually moves the needle — and say so if the answer is nothing yet.

// 01

Web Design & Development

The main event. Designed around your actual services and photographed work — never a template with your logo dropped in — then built to load in under a second on a phone with one bar of signal. Structured so Google can read it, easy to update yourself, and tested on real devices before it goes live.

// 02

Local SEO & Google Business Profile

The half most web designers skip. A page for every service, a page for every town you cover, proper location markup, and a Google Business Profile set up and verified so you show up in the map pack when someone searches at 7am with a burst pipe.

// 03

Social Media Management

Consistent, on-brand posting and community management that grows real engagement — plus a clear plan for what to post and why, profile optimisation, full social rebrands (ad creative, profile pictures, headers, link-in-bio) and monthly reporting on the growth.

// 04

Videography & Photography

Full-service shooting and editing — from a set of proper photographs of your finished work for the website, right through to scroll-stopping short-form and premium brand video, from a team behind 100M+ views.

// 05

Paid Advertising

Meta, Google & TikTok campaigns managed end to end — creative, targeting and budget tuned for the lowest cost per lead. Worth doing once the site converts, not before.

// 06

Lead Generation

Complete funnels — landing page, offer, follow-up — that turn ad spend and content into a predictable flow of qualified enquiries.

Speed & search

Most local business websites are slow. That costs you jobs.

Someone searching for a tradesperson on their phone, in the rain, with one bar of signal, will not wait five seconds for your site to load — they'll press back and ring the next name on the list. Every site we build is engineered to load almost instantly and to give Google exactly what it needs to rank you. These are this site's own scores, measured on mobile. Don't take our word for it — run the test yourself.

How it works

First call to live site, from four weeks.

No mystery and no radio silence. You'll always know what's happening, what we need from you, and roughly when it lands — including after launch, which is where most agencies go quiet.

Step 01

Discovery

A 45-minute call about your trade, the jobs you actually want more of, and what's wrong with what you've got now. You get an honest audit whether or not you hire us.

Day 1

You give us: your current site, and the three competitors who outrank you

Step 02

Design

You see a real design of your own homepage — your services, your photos, your words. Not a template with your logo dropped in. We refine it until you're happy, before anything gets built.

Week 1

You give us: your logo, photos of finished work, and your service list

Step 03

Build

We build it properly: fast, mobile-first, accessible, and structured so Google can read every service and every area you cover. Tested on real phones, not just a laptop.

Weeks 2–3

You give us: nothing — this part is on us

Step 04

Launch

We connect your domain, set up and verify your Google Business Profile, submit the site to Google, and check every form and click-to-call actually works on a real phone before it goes live.

Week 4

You give us: your domain login, and half an hour for the handover

Step 05

Support

You never have to touch it. New service to add, price change, photos from last week's job — send a message and it's done, usually same day. Hosting, security and backups handled in the background. No dashboards, no tickets, no hourly billing.

Ongoing

You give us: nothing — just tell us what you need changing

Pricing

Honest prices, published up front.

No vanity metrics. Every site, video and campaign is designed to generate leads and revenue.

No jargon, no lock-in

FAQs

Good questions, straight answers.

Do you work with small businesses and tradespeople? +

Yes — it's who we're built for. Electricians, plumbers, builders, roofers, landscapers and local service businesses. Whether you're starting from scratch or have an old site that's letting you down, we scale the work to where you are.

Do I own the website? +

Yes, completely. The site is yours from the day it goes live. If you ever stop the care plan we'll hand over the files and help you move it somewhere else — we don't hold anyone's website hostage.

What happens if I cancel the care plan? +

Thirty days' notice and it stops, no exit fee. We hand over the finished site, ready to host anywhere you like. Being straight with you: it's a hand-built site rather than a drag-and-drop builder, so changes after that need someone technical. That's the trade-off for it being fast and properly built — and it's why most people stay.

Can you just build a website, or do I need everything? +

Just a website is completely fine, and it's how most clients start. Video, content and ads are worth adding once the site is already converting — we'll tell you when that is rather than selling it to you on day one.

How quickly can you get started? +

Usually within a week of our first call, with most sites live in about four weeks. You'll get a written scope and timeline up front so you always know what's happening and when.

Who updates the site once it's live? +

We do — that's what the care plan is for. New service, price change, photos from last week's job: send a message and it's done, usually the same day. There's no dashboard to learn and no login to lose, which is deliberate. You're running a business, not a website.

Ready when you are

Let's get your phone
ringing properly.

Contact us

Tell us about your business.

A quick line about your trade, the area you cover and what you're trying to fix is all we need. We'll come back with how we'd approach it and what it would cost — no pressure, no jargon, no call required.

We usually reply within one working day.
