Services
Everything a small business site needs. Nothing it doesn’t.
Three parts, one monthly relationship. Here’s exactly what each one covers and what it costs.
The package
Build, host, edit.
You pay once to have it made, then a small monthly amount to have it hosted, secured and kept current.
Build
A custom site designed around your business — not a template with your logo dropped in.
- Discovery call to understand your trade, customers and goals
- Custom design, built mobile-first from the ground up
- Copywriting help so the words actually sell your service
- Contact forms, maps, opening hours, galleries — whatever you need
- Two rounds of revisions included before launch
Host
Fast, secure hosting handled entirely by me. You never touch a control panel.
- Global CDN hosting — pages load in under a second
- SSL certificate, renewed automatically, forever
- Domain setup and management (or bring your own)
- Daily backups and uptime monitoring
- Security patches applied without you lifting a finger
Edit
Prices changed? New photos? Email me and it's live — usually the same day.
- Unlimited small content edits included in your monthly fee
- Text, images, prices, opening hours, staff changes
- New pages and larger changes quoted upfront, no surprises
- Direct line to me — no ticket queue, no account manager
- Typical turnaround: same working day
Included as standard
On every site, at every price.
These aren’t upsells. They’re the baseline for a site that actually works for a local business.
Mobile-first design
Over half your customers will find you on a phone. Every site is designed for that screen first, then scaled up.
Local SEO foundations
Proper page titles, descriptions, structured data and a Google Business Profile setup so you show up in local searches.
Secure and maintained
SSL, daily backups and monitoring included. If something breaks, I fix it — usually before you notice.
Straightforward pricing
One build fee. One small monthly.
No hourly rates, no hidden extras, no contract. Here’s what it costs — the same figures you’d get on a call.

How it works
Three steps from call to live.
No lengthy onboarding, no 40-page proposal. Most sites go from first conversation to live in two to three weeks.
- 01
A 15-minute call
You tell me what your business does, who you want to reach and what’s not working now. I tell you honestly whether I can help and what it would cost.
- 02
Design and build
I put together a design based on that conversation, you review it, and we adjust. Two rounds of revisions are included. Typical build time is two to three weeks.
- 03
Launch and look after
I handle the domain, hosting, SSL and Google setup. Once you’re live, the monthly fee covers everything — including sending me edits whenever you need them.
