About Webartifice:
Web Expertise Aligned with Your Goals
Running a small business is no small feat – and navigating the online world shouldn’t add to the stress. At Webartifice, we make the digital side of your business simpler, smarter, and more effective.
For over 25 years, we’ve been helping businesses across Bournemouth, Dorset, and beyond turn their online presence into a powerful tool for growth. Whether you’re after a strategic plan, a high-performing website, or advice on how to make your digital efforts work harder, we’re here to help.

It’s About Strategy, Not Just Pretty Websites
Sure, we know how to design websites that look great – but that’s just the start. A successful online presence is about getting your website, content, and digital tools working together to move your business forward.
At Webartifice, we focus on the bigger picture:
- What do you need your website to achieve?
- How can your online presence free up your time or bring in more leads?
- What’s next for your business, and how can your digital tools keep up?
From crafting a smart SEO strategy to simplifying your workflows, we make sure your digital setup delivers real results – not just a pat on the back.
Meet Steve Tunnicliffe
I’m Steve, the founder of Webartifice. I started this consultancy in Bournemouth with one goal in mind: to help businesses take control of their online presence without the headache.
Back in the day, websites were seen as “nice to have.” I saw the potential for more – a chance to create websites and digital strategies that aren’t just functional, but essential to a thriving business.
Today, I still lead every project personally. When we work together, you’ll always know who’s on the other end of the call, and you’ll get clear, straightforward advice without the waffle.
How We Work
We’re big believers in collaboration. That starts with listening. We take the time to understand your goals, challenges, and what makes your business tick. From there, we create a digital strategy that fits – no generic templates, no overcomplicated systems.
Our team is small but mighty. With decades of combined experience in design, development, content, and SEO, we’ve got the skills to make your digital presence work for you. And because we keep things tight-knit, you’ll always feel like a priority, not a project number.
Who We Help
We work with small business owners and decision-makers who know their website isn’t just there to “exist.” It’s there to do something – bring in leads, connect with customers, and make running the business a little bit easier.
If you’ve outgrown your current setup or are fed up with websites that look nice but don’t deliver, we’re here to change that.
We highly recommend the services of Steve Tunnicliffe, owner of Webartifice. Steve has worked alongside us at WPS since day one, our website being key to the development of our procurement business in Africa.
Steve immerses himself in projects, researching key points in depth with no time wasted, having the ability to quickly understand how your business operates, working alongside his client as a “team” member.
The results have been excellent to the point that we have reduced our marketing efforts having found our niches.
More Than Websites: A Smarter Approach to Digital
Your business is unique, and your digital strategy should reflect that. Here’s how we can help:
- Website Design & Development: User-friendly, professional sites that work as hard as you do.
- SEO & Content Strategy: Clear, compelling content that gets your business noticed.
- Digital Consultancy: Tailored advice to help you get the most from your digital tools.
- Brand Support: Consistent branding that makes you memorable for the right reasons.
We’re not here to sell you services you don’t need. Every project is designed around what matters most to your business.
Why Work with Webartifice
We’re not a big agency, and that’s by design. With us, you get a dedicated partner who prioritises start-ups, micro-businesses, and SMEs – the real powerhouses of our economy. You’ll always know who’s in your corner, ensuring that your strategy isn’t just good on paper but gets results in practice.
Building Your Future on a Strong Foundation
There are no shortcuts to real online success – it’s about strategy, dedication, and smart execution. At Webartifice, I lead with an industry-recognised framework that blends strategic thinking with best practices.
