About us.

We’re Sokada, a family-run web design and marketing agency based in Heathfield, East Sussex. Julian has been building websites for 30 years, going back to when most businesses didn’t even have one. Jude has been doing marketing long enough to know what actually works and what just wastes your money. Between us we run a small team of designers, developers and content people who genuinely care whether your website brings you enquiries.

Most of the businesses we talk to have been through the same frustrating loop. They paid someone local a few hundred quid for a website. Then they handed the marketing to a different agency who never looked at the site itself. Nothing was joined up, nothing was planned around results, and the enquiries never came. Nobody could tell them why.

We work differently. We build bespoke WordPress sites with proper on-page SEO, clean structure and schema set up for how Google and AI search engines actually read a page now. Then we run the marketing on top of it. Because a great website with no marketing sits there doing nothing, and great marketing pointed at a broken website just wastes your money faster.

If something we’re doing isn’t going to help you, we’ll tell you. If your current site only needs a tidy-up rather than a rebuild, we’ll say that too. No waffle, no ticking boxes, no over-promising. Honest work from a team that actually wants your phone to start ringing.

Don’t just take our word for it; hear some of the fantastic things our clients have to say about working with us.

  • Great experience with Sokada

    Great experience with Sokada. Julian has been nothing but helpful often going above and beyond what is expected of him. Our new website is a big hit internally and I’m sure will be a useful and powerful tool for us going forwards. Highly recommended.

    Lewis Semmens IT Manager at Aurem Care
  • I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jude and the rest of the digital marketing team at Sokada. We’ve seen a significant increase in traffic both to our website and social media channels since we’ve started using their services. Jude and the team are extremely experienced and knowledgeable but offer a very personal service and are always available to deal with any last-minute requests we may have. I really appreciate all of their hard work and look forward to continuing to work with them over the coming months.
