A website that brings in work

It depends on what the site has to do, so we quote after a free call. The biggest cost drivers are the number of pages, whether you sell online, and how many systems your forms or orders need to connect to.

A simple information site costs less than a store that takes payments and sends orders into your accounts or stock system. Ask any builder for a quote that lists the build, hosting, domain and ongoing care as separate lines. Cheap sites often skip what brings in work: fast phone loading, clear enquiry forms and basic search settings.

You do. We set up the domain, hosting and accounts in your business name, and you give us access to work on them. You keep your website, accounts and content.

Ask for this in writing before you sign. Check who is listed as the domain's registrant, not just who pays the bill. We show you where each login lives at handover, so you can take your domain and content with you if you ever move.

Hosting is the rented space where your website lives on the internet. Most business sites need it every month or year, so it should appear as its own line in any quote. We agree the hosting plan and who pays for it during planning.

Think of your domain name as your address and hosting as the building. If hosting lapses, customers cannot reach your site. Keep your own login even if someone else manages day-to-day care.

It depends on what you sell, how many products you have and whether you already use WordPress. Shopify is quick to start and handles many store jobs for you. WooCommerce gives more control, and suits businesses already on WordPress.

We recommend a platform after a free call, based on your products, your team's skills and the systems you need to connect. Switching later costs time, so the choice is worth getting right early.

The most common cause is a surprise at the last step, such as extra shipping or fees, or being forced to create an account. Most online shoppers leave a cart without buying, with an average abandonment rate of 70.22% across 50 studies (Baymard Institute, 2026). An empty cart is normal, but the checkout path is something you can fix.

We review each step of your checkout on phones and computers with you. We then agree the changes that remove the biggest barriers first.

Nobody can promise a place in Google or AI answers. We focus on what you control: service pages that name what you do and where, consistent business details, and pages that load well on phones. Most phone sites now respond well to taps, with 77% of mobile websites rated good for responsiveness in the HTTP Archive sample (HTTP Archive Web Almanac, 2025).

AI tools draw on more than your website, including reviews and business listings. We check these with you so your information matches everywhere it appears.

It can help, but your Google Business Profile is a separate listing. Your website and profile need the same business name, address, phone number and services. If they do not match, customers and search engines get mixed signals.

We check both and make the details match. We do not control how Google ranks your listing.
