Services · Website development · Appointment booking websites
Codeeo takes on appointment booking website development Manchester operators use to win clients across the city region: tattoo, hair and nail studios in the Northern Quarter and Ancoats, physio and dental practices from Didsbury to Altrincham, advisers in Spinningfields, and wellbeing and fitness venues in Salford and Trafford. We build a website that ranks where your clients search, explains what you offer honestly and sends people into your diary with the right service already selected.
Greater Manchester is ten boroughs, two big universities and a constant flow of visitors for gigs and football. A booking website here has to work for a regular client in Stockport and a first-timer in town for the weekend.

What the website includes
Manchester clients find businesses in different ways. Studio clients often discover an artist on social media and then check the website for portfolio, prices and the deposit policy. Patients compare clinics by borough and by how easy it is to get there on the Metrolink or a Bee Network bus. Professionals in the city centre want an adviser who can see them before work or over a video call. Students at the University of Manchester and Manchester Metropolitan University arrive every September and search for almost everything at once.
We build the website around those habits. Each part below exists to answer a question a client asks before booking, and each can be managed by your team after launch.
For tattoo, hair, brow and nail studios, every artist or stylist gets a page with their portfolio, styles and specialities, each linked to their own booking or consultation slot. Portfolios are refreshed from a phone without needing a designer.
Clients book the person whose work they came for.
Custom tattoos, implant treatments and complex physio cases often start with a consultation. The website explains what happens at that first meeting, captures a short brief and links to the consultation booking type rather than a full session.
Your time goes to clients who are ready to commit.
Pages for each site and the areas you serve, from Salford Quays and Chorlton to Bolton, Bury or Oldham, with real local detail: tram stops, bus routes, parking, accessibility and the services at that site. We avoid copying the same text across every town. Each page links to its own Google Business Profile.
Each site competes in its own corner of the city region.
Greater Manchester's buses are now franchised under the Bee Network alongside the Metrolink trams. Location pages give the nearest stops, the lines that serve them and parking for those who drive, so a first-time client knows exactly how to arrive.
Fewer late arrivals and fewer calls asking for directions.
Book buttons on every service, artist and site open your scheduling software already filtered. Where the software allows, upcoming availability appears on the page, which is especially useful when clients are deciding between two locations. Each click is tracked so you can see where visitors stop.
Visitors move from reading to booking in a couple of taps.
Studios and clinics that take deposits explain them clearly beside the price: how much is non-refundable, how to rearrange and what the Consumer Contracts Regulations mean for online bookings. Deposits are taken by your booking or payment provider, with Strong Customer Authentication handled there.
Clients agree to terms they have actually read.
Pages and offers you can switch on at the start of each academic year, with information that matters to students: walking routes from campus, opening times and whether a student rate exists. Content is scheduled in the CMS before term begins. The same tools work for exam season.
You meet the September surge with pages ready to go.
Banner notices you can turn on when Old Trafford, the Etihad or the big arenas host events, warning clients about traffic and suggesting alternative routes or times. These sit in the CMS and switch off automatically after the date.
Clients plan around busy days instead of missing appointments.
Price lists show the full cost including VAT and any compulsory fee from the start, as the drip pricing rules in the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act require. Hourly tattoo rates, day sessions and minimum charges are explained in plain language.
The figure on the page is the figure the client pays.
A consent banner that meets PECR, a UK GDPR privacy notice, careful handling of any health information in forms, and accessibility built to WCAG 2.2 so disabled clients can find information and book without help. Analytics tags stay off until a visitor consents.
A site that treats every visitor fairly and lawfully.
Who this is for
The appointment businesses that gain most from a stronger website in Manchester are the ones where clients compare carefully and the first booking is the hardest one to win. That covers creative studios, health practices, professional advisers and venues running classes or sessions. Each brings a different starting point, and the first release is shaped to match it rather than following a fixed package. Visitors who come for concerts and matches add another layer of first-time demand.
Tattoo, piercing, hair and nail studios depend on reputation and visual work. Their websites need artist pages, portfolio galleries, aftercare guidance, age and ID policies, and clear deposit terms. Many also host guest artists for short stays, so the CMS needs a quick way to add a temporary profile with its own booking link and remove it afterwards. Studio websites also carry licensing and hygiene information where your council registration requires it, written in a reassuring tone rather than legal language.
Guest artist pages go live and come down in minutes.
Physiotherapy, chiropractic, dental, optical and podiatry practices in Didsbury, Sale, Altrincham, Stockport and beyond need treatment pages, clinician profiles with professional registrations and clear routes for self-pay and insured patients. Regulated providers display their CQC details, and patient information is kept out of public forms and analytics tools entirely. Groups with practices in several boroughs get a location finder that matches a postcode to the nearest clinic offering the right treatment, which keeps patients from booking at a site too far away.
Clinical wording is approved by your clinicians.
Accountants, solicitors, mortgage brokers and consultants book first meetings online with busy professionals. Their websites need adviser profiles, practice area pages, intake questions and a choice of office or video appointments. Regulated firms need the right statements on every page that invites a consultation, especially where financial promotion rules apply. Early morning and lunchtime availability is highlighted on adviser pages because that is when city centre clients tend to book.
Intake answers go directly into your CRM.
Yoga studios, padel and climbing venues, massage therapists and wellbeing centres in Salford, Trafford and the city centre sell sessions, classes and treatments. The website needs a timetable view, clear session descriptions, beginner guidance and links into the booking software for each class type. Venues near MediaCityUK also attract corporate wellbeing enquiries. Beginners get a clear explanation of what to wear, what to bring and when to arrive.
Timetables sync from your booking software where possible.
How we work together
We have no office in Manchester. Codeeo's team of 80+ works from Dubai, Riyadh and Karachi, and we run Manchester projects remotely, with discovery, design reviews and CMS training held by video call. Single-site studios and practices usually start with a fixed-scope build. Growing groups often add a monthly retainer for new pages and local search, and larger operators sometimes take a dedicated team for a longer programme. All decisions are recorded in a shared project board.
A defined build with a deadline
We agree what the product has to do, write it down with a price and a date, and build exactly that. Changes are priced before they are made, not discovered on the invoice.
A product that keeps evolving
Named engineers who work your hours, join your standups and stay on the codebase. You direct the backlog; we own the quality of what ships.
Something live that needs looking after
A monthly block of hours for improvements, fixes and the small requests that otherwise wait months. Unused hours carry for a quarter.
Technology
We pick the stack to fit your booking software and your team. WordPress suits many single-site studios and clinics; a headless CMS with Next.js suits groups with several sites, large portfolios or demanding speed targets. Hosting sits in your own cloud account. Backups and uptime monitoring are configured before launch.

A great deal, along with pages, content and integrations.
Each additional site adds a location page, local content, a booking configuration and testing. Beyond that, cost depends on how many services, artists or clinicians need their own pages, whether content and photography are produced from scratch, how deep the booking and CRM integrations go and whether an old site needs migrating. We do not publish fixed prices; after discovery you receive a written scope with timing agreed stage by stage. Ongoing costs such as hosting and third-party licences are listed separately so nothing appears later.
