All of our work comprises entirely custom web design - we never try to shoehorn client requirements into someone else's pre-built template or theme. What's more, we have extensive experience in the development of bespoke functionality across data visualisation, e-commerce, online membership management, and event booking systems, meaning we’re never constrained by existing plug-ins or modules. So, if you like the look of our designs for Drupal, Laravel, & WordPress and want to know more about our digital agency, have a look below at the full range of website development services we offer from our studio in Edinburgh, Scotland.

Story

Story

2005: First Website

Launched first website. Looking back on it now, Starbit’s first website had some freaky design, but it spawned everything from then on in.

2007: Moved to Edinburgh

Relocated from Aberdeen to Edinburgh. The capital brought some exciting new opportunities for Starbit and really springboarded the business.

2010: Employed First Staff

The amount of work steadily increased to the point where helpers were needed. The skills of others helped bolster and broaden Starbit’s service offering.

2011: Registered Limited Company

Starbit took the leap and became all official. Lots of scary new things to learn. Took on some of the clients who are still with the company to this day.  

2012: First Proper Office

Starbit moved from the cosy attic to a proper office in Midlothian. Squirrels, birds and trees were lovely neighbours but it wasn’t quite right in the end.

2013: The Brand Evolves

Starbit's branding evolved to reflect an increasing focus on digital. At this point, a strategic decision to cover both Drupal & WordPress was also taken. 

2014: Moved to Leith

Starbit found a new home slap bang in the middle of the capital’s vibrant creative heartland and made lots of new friends. Didn’t look back.

2015: The Team Expanded

Carine, Starbit’s Technical Director, joined the team in this pivotal year and helped kick-start some transformational new development processes.

2016: Birthday Party & Exhibition

Starbit hosted an evening bday bash to kick off a month long exhibition of work in the gallery space at the Creative Exchange.

2017: Another Great Addition

Peter, our UX/UI design specialist and king of prototypes, joined the team, helping to further refine our user-centric approach to design and development. 

2018: Moved to Larger Premises

Having taken the top floor of Leith's former nautical college, Starbit secured enough space to realise its longer term growth ambitions.

2019: Our New Website Launches

Three years in the making, all of our hard work on our brand and digital presence comes together. A secret is included for the curious to uncover...

2020: Geared Up for the Future

Starbit continues to focus its core specialisms - innovating and pushing boundaries in the digital space to help our clients go further.
