Digital sustainability.

Our team specialises in creating high-performing, eco-friendly websites. Our sustainable web development approach includes clean energy hosting, efficient coding, lightweight pages, and best practices for optimal content delivery.

Why a website's carbon footprint matters.

Websites account for 2% of global carbon emissions each year; a seemingly small figure, but a significant one when you consider how much can be done to reduce their impact. The Eco-Friendly Web Alliance recommends a carbon load of 1g per page, yet many pages exceed this. Imagine a page that produces 3g of carbon per view and receives 100,000 daily visits. By optimising it, the potential carbon savings are enormous.

We understand the challenge. A website needs to stand out, but we believe it’s possible to balance aesthetics, user experience and sustainability without compromising on impact.

Sustainable at scale

While smaller websites have a minimal impact, an organisation’s digital footprint can grow exponentially as it scales. We audit your website’s efficiency and identify areas for improvement, helping you reduce your footprint as your business grows.

Aligning with branding

Many brands are increasingly focusing on sustainability as a core part of their identity. Updating your website to align with these goals not only promotes consistency but also provides fresh marketing content that reflects your commitment to the environment.

Offsetting carbon

We can utilise tools in the sustainability sector as well as creating new methods to help create simple, effective solutions for measuring and offsetting your carbon footprint.

Sustainable hosting.

We believe in powering the web with renewable and clean energy. Our hosting services are sourced from providers who use 100% clean energy, reducing the environmental impact of your website. In choosing sustainable hosting, our clients benefit from reductions in emissions while also gaining reliable, high-speed website performance.

As consumers and clients increasingly prioritise sustainability, eco-friendly hosting helps your business stand out. For companies committed to reducing their environmental impact, sustainable hosting strengthens brand reputation while maintaining top-tier performance. At We Create Digital, we support UK businesses in building a greener digital presence.

Making a conscious choice.

We support clients who are committed to implementing sustainable web practices, whether as part of their core mission and values or to meet industry-specific requirements. By adopting these practices, we help businesses not only align with environmental goals but also enhance their digital presence with websites that are fast, efficient, and eco-friendly. As sustainability becomes an increasingly important consideration for both consumers and businesses, more organisations are choosing to incorporate it into their brand identity. We are keen to assist these forward-thinking companies, offering our expertise to ensure their web solutions not only perform well but also make a positive contribution.

Efficient code.

Our development team writes efficient scripts and employs best practices that minimise server load and reduce energy consumption. Through a rigorous optimisation process, we create websites that load faster, use less bandwidth, and contribute to a more sustainable digital ecosystem. By focusing on writing cleaner, more efficient code, we not only lower emissions but also improve the overall user experience. Better code means faster, more responsive websites that perform at their best without having a negative impact on the environment.

Lightweight pages and content delivery.

A large part of sustainable development involves creating lightweight websites that load faster and consume fewer resources. By optimising the delivery of images and other assets, we reduce page sizes and enhance performance. This approach not only improves the user experience with faster loading times but also lowers energy consumption, making your website both more sustainable and environmentally friendly. Through thoughtful optimisation, we ensure that every aspect of your site works efficiently, minimising the carbon load.

Our team follows best practices to ensure your content is delivered quickly and efficiently. We leverage data-driven strategies to implement a best-in-class approach, using content delivery networks (CDNs), lazy loading techniques, and file compression. These methods work together to minimise data transfer, reduce loading times, and significantly cut down on energy consumption, helping your website perform optimally while being more sustainable.

The shifting landscape of Google Search and AI Content Generation

2024 has been an interesting year for the world so far. Perhaps the biggest changes, however, have not been quite as devastating as a giant hurricane, nor as dramatic as an election. No – the largest shifts have, in many ways, happened in a world not visible without the use of a device: the online world.
