We design your key pages and send you a preview. Change what you like before we build.
We build it
The real site, with your words and photos, forms, email alerts and Google basics.
Go live
On your domain, in your account. We show you how to edit it, and we're here after.
What we need from you
Less than you think
You know your business. We'll do the rest.
- Your logo, if you have one (we can tidy it up)
- Photos of your work, your team or your premises
- A few notes on your services and the areas you cover
- Your contact details and opening hours
- Twenty minutes to set up your own Amazon account (we guide you)
What you get at the end
Everything, in your name
No hidden strings, nothing held back.
- Your website, live on your own domain
- Your own hosting account and server
- Enquiry forms that email you
- Secure HTTPS (the padlock) and nightly backups
- Training, so you can edit it yourself
Why your own account?
Because it's your business
Your website is one of your business's most important assets. It shouldn't depend on one web company staying in business, or on you staying with them.
So we set your site up in your own Amazon Web Services account. You pay Amazon directly, usually about £12–15 a month. We look after it if you'd like us to, and if you ever want to move on, it stays exactly where it is.
Questions
Things people usually ask
Do I really own the website?
Yes. Your site runs in your own Amazon Web Services account, on your own server, with your own domain. You pay Amazon directly (usually about £12–15 a month). If you ever stop working with us, everything stays with you.
Can I change the words and photos myself?
Yes. Your site is built on Concrete CMS, a point-and-click editor: click on a heading or photo, change it, publish. We show you how in a training session, and you can always ask us instead.
How long does it take?
Most sites go live two to three weeks after we have your words and photos. You see the design before we build anything, so there are no surprises.
What do I need to give you?
Your logo (if you have one), photos of your work, and a few notes about your services and the areas you cover. Don't worry about writing it perfectly: we turn your notes into clear, friendly pages.
What will it cost to run each month?
Two things: Amazon's hosting bill (usually about £12–15 a month, paid by you directly) and, if you want us to look after it, a care plan from £49 a month. Your domain name renews yearly, usually £10–20.
Do I have to take a care plan?
No. Care plans are optional and you can cancel with a month's notice. Without one, you look after updates yourself or ask us for help as and when you need it.
Will my website show up on Google?
Every site is built to be fast, mobile-friendly and easy for Google to read, with page titles and descriptions set up properly. We can also set up your Google Business Profile, which is often the quickest way to appear in local searches.
