Websites built properly, by one person
I’m Oliver. I design, build, host and look after WordPress websites for small businesses across the UK. You deal with me from the first call to launch day, and after.
Concept sites, built in front of you. Tap or click the preview to look around that site.
See what I build
Four made-up businesses, four completely different sites. Open one to look around.
Most small-business websites are
- Slow on phones
- Hard to update
- Looking dated
- Built, then abandoned
- Here’s who fixes it

Revilo is Oliver, backwards.
One person designs, builds, hosts and looks after your site. No project managers and no hand-offs: you talk to me from the first call to launch day, and every client gets the same time and effort.

How a site gets built
1 / 4
Design
We talk over video about your business and the sites you like. I design how yours will look, from colours and type to every page, and show you before anything is built.
- A look that fits your brand
- Real words and photos planned in
- You sign off the design first

Build
A new site, or a rebuild of the one you have. It loads fast on phones, and you can change words and photos yourself without breaking the design. Built in WordPress.
- Made for your business, not a template
- Quick to load on any phone
- Easy for you to edit

Launch
Before it goes live, I check every page on phones, tablets and big screens, make sure it’s quick and easy for everyone to use, and fix anything that isn’t right. Then it’s yours.
- Tested at four screen sizes
- Checked for speed and ease of use
- Forms tested end to end

✓ every page, every width
$ check --speed --a11y
✓ fast and accessible
$ go-live
✓ your site is live4 / 4
Look after
I host your site on fast managed servers, keep it updated and backed up, and fix things when they need fixing. One person to call, for as long as you want.
- Managed hosting
- Updates and backups
- Changes when you need them
every week:
updates ✓ done
backup ✓ done
security ✓ checked
you ✓ one call awayEvery site is built to these
Not promises about results: the standards every page has to meet before it goes live.

About the night
A low ceiling, a proper sound system and a crowd that comes to dance.
No VIP area and no dress code. Lights stay low, phones stay in pockets, and the music runs from warm-up to close with no gaps. Tickets are released in two tiers, and when they’re gone, they’re gone.

Want a site like this for your night?
Lowlight isn’t real. It’s a concept site by Built By Revilo, showing the kind of site I’d build for a promoter, DJ or events company: dates up front, tickets one tap away.
Hartley & Rowe Builders
Extensions, lofts and renovations, built properly
A family-run building firm across Merseyside. One team from first visit to final clean, and a fixed written quote before any work starts.
One team, start to finish
The people who quote your job are the people who build it.
We handle the drawings, planning and building regs, then run the build with one site manager and a weekly update. The site is tidied every evening, and we don’t call it finished until you’re happy.
Extensions
Single and two-storey, side returns and wrap-arounds.
Loft conversions
Dormer and Velux lofts that add a bedroom and bathroom.
Renovations
Knock-throughs, kitchens and full refurbishments.
Roofing
New roofs, re-roofs and repairs, done by our own team.
Big jobs and small ones
Homeowners
From a new kitchen to a full extension, we plan the work around your family so you can stay living at home.
