Autoeight is a Halifax web studio working with small businesses across the Wakefield district, from the city centre out to Ossett and Horbury. We build custom sites with CRM sync, sales dashboards, automated emails and AI included from the start. You own the site outright, and we're near enough to sit down with you while it gets built.
Whether you trade from the city centre or one of the district towns, the starting point is the same: a site that gets found, backed by systems that do the chasing for you.
A custom site set up to rank for Wakefield district searches and turn the visit into an enquiry, with the technical groundwork underneath done right.
AI-drafted enquiry replies, reminders and review requests that fire on their own, keeping every Wakefield lead warm without extra hands.
Website, calendar, inbox and CRM joined up, so quotes, bookings and payments all land in the same place and nothing slips through.
Custom LMS platforms for trainers, schools and firms that want staff learning tracked in one branded system they own.
Confirmation emails the moment someone books, review requests timed right, and sequences that chase the leads you would otherwise forget. AI can take the routine support questions too.
One place showing sales and jobs side by side, with reports that put themselves together, so you know which customers and services are worth your time.
Wakefield's trade doesn't stop at the cathedral: Ossett, Horbury, Sandal, Outwood and Normanton each bring their own searches, and the footfall around Trinity Walk, Westgate and the Hepworth shapes what the centre looks for. We build your pages around the parts of the district that actually feed your order book.
Template builders get you online, and that's about it. The pages carry code you never asked for, so they load slowly on the phones most of your customers are using. Winning a search like "plumber Ossett" or "accountant Wakefield" needs proper on-page structure, location pages and schema markup, and the builders make all three awkward. Want a booking system or CRM connection? That's another app, another monthly fee, another login.
And the meter never stops running. You pay every month whether trade is good or quiet, and if you ever leave the platform you take nothing with you. For a Wakefield firm planning to be around in ten years, buying a site you own beats renting one you don't.
We're based in Halifax, which puts Wakefield about forty minutes away. That's the difference between hiring a faceless agency and working with someone who'll drive over, walk your premises, and understand what you're selling before a single page gets designed. Kickoff in person, a mid-build review at your place, and a proper handover where we show your team how to run everything.
If you'd rather do the whole thing remotely, that works too. But the option to sit across a table is there, and most Wakefield clients take it.
Custom builds from £2,000 for a focused setup. 3 to 12 weeks from kickoff to your site going live. Fixed quote per project, no per-seat licences, no monthly platform fees, no surprise hourly billing. The free call gives you a rough budget.
Yes. We're based in Halifax, about forty minutes from Wakefield down the M62. Close enough that kickoff can happen at your premises or over a coffee in the city centre, and close enough to come back for the mid-build review too. Remote works fine if you'd rather keep it on Zoom.
That's exactly how we work. AI-drafted enquiry replies, booking confirmations, review requests and CRM updates are wired in during the build, so the site is already doing the admin on the day it goes live. Nothing extra to buy, nothing new to learn.
CRM sync with HubSpot or Pipedrive, Stripe payments, sales dashboards, booking systems, automated confirmation and review request emails, AI-drafted enquiry replies, customer portals and stock tools. If it touches a form, a payment or a customer record, we can connect it.
Because you'd be renting, not owning. A template platform charges every month forever, loads slower than it should, and makes ranking for Wakefield searches harder because the page structure is generic. We build you a site you own outright, with the integrations running properly server-side.
