# Matsio > Matsio is a B2B web design and development studio building conversion-focused websites for B2B businesses. Based in Thiruvananthapuram, India. It continues the practice Aghosh Babu began in 2005, incorporated as Matsio Digital Marketers Pvt. Ltd. in 2017. 1,000+ websites delivered across 40+ countries. 85% client return rate, measured across every engagement since 2005. ## Claims and their basis Every figure above is the studio's own, and this is how each was arrived at. - Operating history: the practice began in 2005 as Aghosh Babu's independent work and was incorporated as Matsio Digital Marketers Pvt. Ltd. in 2017. The company registration date is 2017; the twenty-year figure describes the practice and its founder, not the age of the legal entity. Both are stated because a registration check will show the later date. - 1,000+ websites and 40+ countries: cumulative delivery across the practice since 2005, spanning both periods. - 85% client return rate: share of clients who commissioned further work, measured across every engagement since 2005. Industry context: Promethean Research's 2026 Digital Agency Industry Report names short client tenure as one of the structural features of the agency industry, alongside a lack of economies of scale and negligible barriers to entry. Source: https://prometheanresearch.com/digital-agency-industry-report - No independently audited retention benchmark exists for this industry, so the 85% figure is published with its basis rather than against an industry average. ## Services - New Website: full-strategy builds - structure, copy, design, and development, in that order. - Website Redesign: rebuilding sites that function but don't convert. - Performance Optimisation: conversion path analysis, copy audit, technical performance, trust signal placement. - E-Commerce: purchase journey mapping and checkout optimisation. - Ongoing Support: retained post-launch support and performance reviews at 30 and 90 days. ## Key pages - [Homepage](https://matsio.com/): overview, services, process, testimonials, FAQ - [About](https://matsio.com/about/): studio history, founder, team, engagement process - [Works](https://matsio.com/works/): case studies and portfolio - [Insights](https://matsio.com/insights/): research-led articles on B2B website conversion - [Newsletter](https://matsio.com/newsletter/): invite-only email, one fix and one finding each week - [Contact](https://matsio.com/contact/): start a project, book a scoping call ## Insights Research-led writing on what makes B2B websites produce business.
