Our story

Zak Single, founder of Zed Studio

Founded in frustration. Built on conviction.

Zak has been building websites for almost 20 years. He built his first WordPress site at 18, worked in agencies and in-house marketing teams big and small, and freelanced under his own name for years, before setting up Zed Studio Ltd in 2022.

The pattern was always the same. A client would ask for a new website, and the agency would build a new website. Nobody stepped back to ask whether that was what they actually needed. A few months later the call would come: “The new website hasn’t done anything.” It usually wasn’t a website problem. It was a traffic problem, a positioning problem, or a strategy problem nobody had looked at.

Zed exists to do that differently. We start with the business behind the brief, get to know you before we recommend anything, and we’re honest when what you think you need isn’t what you actually need. That’s why every project starts with a Digital Roadmap Session, before we build and run the engine that delivers it.

The name is a small story too: Zed is the initial Zak shares with his eldest daughter, Zarley.

Our clients include manufacturers, installers, recycling firms, suppliers and product brands across the UK. We keep our client list deliberately small, so new-client slots are limited. And they’ve rated us 5.0 on Google: read what they say.

What we believe

Strategy. Craft. Partnership.

Three principles behind every project, from a new website to a long-term Enquiry Engine.

  1. 01

    Strategy

    We start with the business behind the brief, not the brief itself. We won’t quote for what you think you need until we understand what you actually need.

  2. 02

    Craft

    Custom design and development on the right platform for your project. No templates and no shortcuts, and the people who plan your project are the people who build it.

  3. 03

    Partnership

    We’re in it for the long run, because your success is our success. We’re still here after launch, looking after your website and growing your enquiries. Some of our clients have been with us since 2016, and just one ongoing client has left us in the last four years.

What our clients say

Google rating 5 out of 5Rated 5.0 on Google

“He really listened to what we needed as a family run business, had great communication throughout, and delivered exactly what we envisioned. He also optimised our SEO which has improved our website traffic dramatically.”

Jordan DunleavyGoogle review

“…he is still happy to help, even though the customer doesn’t have a maintenance package. Which is very rare, as most website design companies, once the website has gone live, ghost you.”

TJ Marketing ServicesGoogle review

“Zak achieved really outstanding SEO results for us in a short amount of time. He is reliable, easy to get ahold of; I highly recommend.”

Common questions

About us. If yours isn’t here, just ask.

Where are you based?

We’re Cambridge-based and work with businesses in Huntingdon, Cambridge, St Neots, Peterborough and Bedford, and right across the UK.

Who will I work with?

A small senior team. Zak leads the strategy, and you talk directly to the people doing the work.

How many clients do you take on?

We keep our client list deliberately small, so new-client slots are limited.

What kind of businesses do you work with?

Manufacturers, installers, recycling firms, suppliers and product brands, and plenty more besides. If you’re not sure we’re a fit, just ask.

How long have you been doing this?

Zak has been building websites for almost 20 years. He built his first WordPress site at 18, freelanced under his own name for years, and set up Zed Studio Ltd in 2022.

Can we start with just one thing?

Yes. Plenty of clients start with one thing, like a new website, SEO or a Digital Roadmap Session, then add more once they see it working. We’ll suggest the best first step for you.

We’re with another agency. Is it hard to move?

Not at all. We handle the move for you, from your website and hosting to your Google accounts, so nothing breaks and nothing gets lost along the way.

Do you use AI?

Yes, where it genuinely helps. AI lets us work faster and spot opportunities sooner, but real people plan, write and check everything we do.
