A look at what we’ve built — with more case studies landing as each project goes live.
Why work with an independent studio
A big agency or a template builder can get you a website. Here’s what a small, local studio gets you instead.
Direct access to the person building it
No account managers or ticket queues — you talk to the designer and developer working on your site.
Faster turnaround
A small studio means fewer layers between a decision and it being built. Most sites launch in weeks, not months.
Pietermaritzburg-based
Local, reachable, and familiar with the small businesses and customers you're building for.
Real custom work, not a template
Every site is designed around your business, not stretched over a one-size-fits-all theme.
Meet the founder
Asanda Richard Radebe
Founder & Designer
I started Aggrandize because too many small businesses were stuck choosing between a generic template and an agency invoice that didn't match the size of the job. I design and build every site myself — no hand-offs, no account managers, just one person who cares how it turns out.
Common questions
Yes. The E-Commerce Site package includes a full product catalogue, cart, and secure checkout, built on top of everything in the Business Site package. It's currently offered at an introductory rate for our first 1–2 store clients.
That's what the maintenance plans are for. Basic covers hosting, security, and uptime monitoring; Standard and Premium add a set number of small content edits each month, plus a priority turnaround on Premium. You can also request one-off changes any time — just get in touch.
Projects start with a deposit to secure your spot and begin work, with the balance due at launch. Maintenance plans are billed monthly, with a discount if you prepay annually. Full details are confirmed in your proposal before anything is booked.
That's the point of working with a small studio — you deal directly with the person building your site, in plain language, from the first message to launch and beyond. No jargon, no ticket queues.
