The cost of fragile infrastructure
When your website is a liability, everything downstream suffers.
Legacy platforms create compounding costs: in security, in velocity, in credibility. Every one of them shows up in a sales cycle, a security review, or a launch that slips.
Performance that costs revenue
Every 100ms of load time reduces conversions. Slow sites signal unreliability to prospects evaluating your business.
Developer bottlenecks
Marketing waits on IT for every content update. Velocity drops. Opportunities slip.
Security exposure
Plugin vulnerabilities, outdated CMS versions, weak hosting: these aren't IT problems. They're business risks.
Forced rebuilds
Platforms that age poorly and need replacing every 2-3 years. Each rebuild costs time, money, and momentum.
What we deliver

We measure success by business impact, not timesheets, revisions, or billable hours.

FAQ
Questions we get asked
What does Layer One Digital do? +
We build high-performance marketing platforms and replatform legacy websites for B2B companies where the website is business-critical. We work static-first on Astro and Payload CMS, producing fast, secure sites with 95+ Lighthouse scores, no plugins to patch, and near-zero maintenance, the opposite of a fragile WordPress build.
How much does a B2B website cost with Layer One? +
Our premium marketing platforms start from £12,000 and replatforming engagements run to around £25,000, all fixed-scope with no hourly billing. Faster, fixed-scope launch services under Layer One Launch start from £1,500. We publish pricing openly so you can plan a budget before you ever speak to us.
Why static-first instead of WordPress? +
A static-first site is pre-rendered and served from the edge, so there is no PHP or database in the request path, no plugins to patch, and effectively no attack surface, which makes it faster, more secure, and cheaper to run than WordPress. For a B2B company where the website sits in the sales cycle, that's a direct reduction in cost and risk.
Do you work with companies outside Scotland? +
Yes. We're based in Edinburgh and understand the Scottish market well, but we work with B2B companies across the UK and beyond. Our engagements are structured to work equally well in person or remotely.
What happens when I request a fit check? +
A fit check is a short, no-pressure conversation to understand your goals and determine whether we're the right partner. We take on a small number of projects each quarter and would rather tell you honestly if there isn't a fit than sell you work that won't help.
