Website Consulting & Advice.
Website audits and consulting for businesses that need an honest assessment of their site and a clear plan for improvements.
An Honest Look at Your Website
Sometimes you need someone to look at your website with fresh eyes and tell you what's working, what isn't, and what to fix first. We audit websites and provide a clear list of improvements, prioritised by impact. Most of the time, clients hire us to make the fixes. But for some, we work purely as consultants, providing the audit and recommendations for their own team or another provider to act on. Either way, you get the same honest assessment.

Why Choose
Brink?
We Tell You What Actually Matters
A typical website audit could list 200 things to fix. Most of them won't make a meaningful difference. We prioritise by impact. If your site loads in 8 seconds, that's a bigger problem than a missing alt tag on your team photo. We separate the quick wins from the bigger projects and give you a clear order to tackle things in.
No Pressure to Use Us for the Fix
We'd like to do the work, obviously. But if you have an in-house team or another provider, the audit and recommendations are just as useful. We've worked with businesses where our role is purely advisory, reviewing their website quarterly and flagging what needs attention. The advice is the same regardless of who implements it.
We Audit From a Business Perspective
We don't just check technical boxes. We look at your website as a customer would. Can they find what they need? Is it clear what you do and why they should choose you? Does the site work on their phone? Are there obvious trust signals? Technical performance matters, but so does whether the site actually convinces people to get in touch.
What's Included
Key features and benefits of our website consulting & advice service.
Website Audits
A thorough review of your current site covering speed, SEO, usability, content, security, and conversion. You get a prioritised list of what to fix and why.
Technology Advice
Honest recommendations on platforms and tools. If WordPress is the right fit, we'll say so. If you'd be better on Shopify or a custom build, we'll say that instead.
Improvement Roadmap
A clear plan with priorities and timelines. What to do first, what can wait, and what each improvement is likely to cost and achieve.
Second Opinions
If you've had a proposal from another agency and you're not sure about it, we'll review it honestly. We'll tell you if the scope makes sense, if the price is fair, and if anything important is missing.
Our Process
A proven workflow that delivers predictable results.
Website Audit
We review your site across technical performance, SEO, user experience, content quality, mobile usability, and security. We use the same tools and checks we apply to our own builds.
Findings Report
You get a clear report with every issue documented, prioritised by impact, and grouped into quick wins, medium-term fixes, and larger projects. No jargon. Screenshots and explanations for everything.
Recommendations Call
We walk you through the findings and answer questions. If you want us to fix things, we'll quote the work. If you want to handle it yourself, we'll make sure you understand what needs doing.
Ongoing Reviews (Optional)
For clients who want regular oversight, we offer quarterly website reviews. We check performance, flag new issues, and keep you updated on what's changed since the last review.
