Website packages for small businesses and start-ups, from £499

A professionally built small business website normally costs somewhere between a few hundred pounds and several thousand, depending on how many pages you need, whether it has to take bookings or payments, and whether the content is written for you. Our packages are fixed price so there are no surprises: £499 for a seven page website, £699 for twelve pages, £899 for twenty pages with a stronger SEO focus, and £1,249 for up to twenty five pages with online booking or a shop. Each price is a one-off build fee agreed before we start.

You will see a first draft within ten days of your onboarding call. From there, the full build takes between three and twelve weeks depending on how complex your needs are: a seven page brochure site sits at the shorter end, while a website with online booking, a shop or a lot of content takes longer. Whatever the size, you are involved in every aspect of the build and kept updated throughout, so you always know where the project is and what happens next.

When a website looks fine but produces nothing, the cause is usually one of four things: it is slow or awkward on a phone, it does not say clearly what you do and where you do it, there is no obvious next step such as a call button or enquiry form, or the pages are not written around the words your customers actually type into Google. Every website we build is designed to fix all four, with fast mobile friendly pages, service and location focused content, clear calls to action on every page and technical SEO set up from day one.

DIY builders are a reasonable way to get something online quickly, but many owners find the site never appears in search results and does not bring in work. Two of the businesses on this page came to us from GoDaddy and Wix websites for exactly that reason. If your current site is not producing enquiries, a properly structured WordPress website that you own outright, written and set up for search, is usually a better investment than paying a builder subscription for a site that does nothing.

Every website we build is set up so Google can find, read and index it properly: fast loading pages, optimised headings, clean URLs, mobile responsiveness, and on the £499 and £699 packages Google Search Console and GA4 connected through the monthly plan so you can see how it is performing. Being indexed is the foundation. Ranking on the first page for competitive search terms in your area takes ongoing SEO work over time, which we offer as a separate service and can discuss on your call.

No. We write your website text for you on every package. Well written pages help with conversion, local SEO and the flow of the site, and it removes the one job that stalls most website projects. It is always worth sending us your own photos, such as before and afters or your team on site, but if you do not have any we will source stock images.

You own it outright. We build on WordPress, the most widely used platform in the world, so nothing is tied to a proprietary system. Payment is a 50 percent deposit to start and the balance before go-live, at which point the website is yours. The £29.99 monthly plan on the £499 and £699 packages runs for a minimum of twelve months and then rolls monthly.

You get 30 days of free support after launch for any issues or minor changes such as image placement. On the £499 and £699 packages the £29.99 monthly plan then keeps your site hosted, backed up weekly, monitored for security and performance and covered by an SSL certificate. For the larger packages we offer ongoing maintenance, which you can ask about on your call.

Website hosting with weekly backups, security and performance monitoring and an SSL certificate, one written and published blog article per month, basic ongoing SEO and improvements, and the set up of Google Search Console and GA4 so you can track how your website is performing. It applies to the £499 and £699 packages, starts at go-live and runs for a minimum of twelve months.

Yes. The £1,249 Go Big package is built for businesses that need online booking or a shop from day one, with payment set up and the checkout tested before launch. If you start on a smaller package and need a shop or booking system later, it can be added, because WordPress grows with your business.

Yes. We can buy or transfer your domain name, set up your business email and host the website for you, so you deal with one company rather than three. Domain names are not included in the package prices but we handle the whole process for you.

One of our team will call you for a no obligation chat about your business and what you need from the website. There is no pushy sales call, just a conversation, and if a package fits we will explain the next steps and get your onboarding call booked in.
