Website Development in Pretoria - Built for Your Trade, Phones First, Live in Two Weeks
Business websites from R5,000, online shops and web applications - designed by Topaz Website Creations, hosted and secured by Code Masters, so one company answers for all of it.
What a website has to do in 2026
Every website has a shelf life. Design moves on, phones change, Google changes what it rewards - and a site that was right three years ago quietly starts sending your customers to the next result. Most business websites in Pretoria fail at four things: they are slow on a phone, they say nothing a customer in Menlyn or Centurion cares about, they have no click-to-call or WhatsApp button, and Google cannot read them.
We build the opposite: your services, your area, click-to-call and WhatsApp on every page, server-rendered so Google reads every word, fast enough to pass Core Web Vitals, and wired into a Google Business Profile so the map listing and the website work together. This site is built the same way; it is our own case study.

Two brands, one company
Topaz Website Creations is Code Masters' design brand - "we don't build websites, we create art" - and it is part of the same company at the same Centurion office. Topaz designs and builds; Code Masters hosts, secures, backs up and integrates the site with your email and business systems. You get a designer's website with an IT company behind it, and one number to phone when anything needs changing.
