What you get

A website that's built properly, not thrown together.

This is the lean version: a well-built site with the SEO basics done right. If you also want your Google Business Profile, directory listings, and an automated review system, see Online Presence instead — this page is for people who just need a proper website first.

01

A custom-designed, mobile-first website

Up to 5 pages (Home, About, Services, Work/Gallery, Contact), designed around your business rather than dropped into a generic template. Fast-loading, and built to look right on a phone first.

02

Basic on-page SEO, done properly

Meta titles and descriptions on every page, a submitted sitemap, sensible heading structure, image compression and alt text, and page-speed tuning. The technical foundations Google needs — not full local SEO or content writing.

03

A year of hosting, included

Fast, secure hosting with SSL, for 12 months from launch — no separate hosting bill to sort out. After year one it renews at a low flat annual fee; cancel any time and take your site elsewhere.

04

Your domain, in your name

I'll register a new domain in your name or connect one you already own. Either way, the domain is yours — I never hold it hostage.

How it works

One week. Three steps.

A smaller scope than a full online-presence build, so it moves faster.

Day 1

20-minute kickoff call

What you do, who it's for, any existing branding or photos, and your domain situation.

Day 2–5

Design + build

I design and build all 5 pages, wire up the SEO basics, and set up hosting. You review on day 5 with comments.

Day 6–7

Revisions + launch

One round of edits, then the site goes live on your domain with every login handed over.

A straight answer first

Is this the right starting point for you?

This page covers website + hosting only. If you want help actually ranking on Google and generating leads, that's a different (bigger) job — see the second column.

Web Design & Hosting is for you if
  • You don't have a website yet, or the one you have looks unprofessional
  • You mainly need somewhere to send people who already know about you
  • You want the technical SEO basics done right, without a full marketing package
  • You'd rather start lean at £500 and add more later if it's working
Go with Online Presence instead if
  • You want to actually rank on Google for people searching for what you do
  • You need your Google Business Profile claimed and optimised
  • You want an automated review-collection system built in
  • You want ongoing monthly SEO content, not just the technical basics
Common questions

Things I get asked before signing.

Do I own the website and domain?

Yes. Day one. The domain is registered in your name, you get the hosting login, and every file is yours. Leave any time.

What happens to hosting after the first year?

It renews at a low flat annual fee — I'll confirm the exact figure in your quote. No surprise price hikes, and you're free to move hosting elsewhere at any point.

Can I upgrade to Online Presence later?

Yes — this is designed as a starting point. If you later want the Google Business Profile, directory listings, and review automation, I'll credit what you've already paid against the Online Presence package.

What if I need more than 5 pages?

Extra pages can be added for a small fixed fee per page, agreed upfront in your quote — no surprise costs.

Do you write the content for me?

I'll shape and tidy up whatever text you give me, and can draft copy with AI tools for you to review — but you know your business better than I do, so the starting words are best coming from you.
