Your questions about working together

Website packages currently start at £140 for a one-page site, £210 for a three-page business site and £315 for five to seven pages, with Extended websites of ten or more pages starting at £450. Larger websites, online shops and custom systems are quoted individually. If a package does not fit what you need, tell me what you are after and I will price it properly rather than squeezing you into the wrong one.

I work independently, so the price does not need to cover a sales team or account management. These website packages also have a defined scope, which keeps the work manageable and the quote predictable.

Your agreed project price stays fixed even if my advertised rates change later. If you request additional work, I will quote it separately for you to approve before I begin.

A 50% deposit starts the project, with the remaining 50% due before launch. The build includes your first month of Website Care, then £19.99/month unless you upgrade or cancel before renewal. Local Visibility is £49/month with five SEO pages; Local Growth is £99/month with ten. Both include care, Google Business Profile support and monthly reporting.

Your quote lists the agreed work and any separate costs before you commit. Domain registration is paid to your registrar, and any licensed photography is agreed separately. I also flag hosting or third-party subscriptions where the project needs them.

Most straightforward business websites take around 5 to 7 working days once the necessary information is ready. The quote gives you a timeline for your project, including time for your feedback. Larger builds are scheduled separately.

Send your business name, services, contact details and any logo or photos you already have. Links to an existing website, social page or Google Business Profile help me understand the business before we plan the pages.

Your package includes two rounds of reasonable revisions before launch, covering wording, colours, layout adjustments and photo changes. New pages or a change to the agreed scope are priced separately before that work starts.

You can send notes rather than finished copy. I will organise the information and draft the pages for you to review, so the wording accurately reflects your services and the way you work.

Yes. Send whatever you have and I will work with it. If your photos need cropping, resizing or optimising for the web, I handle that. If you do not have a logo, I can advise on what would work or point you in the right direction.

I can suggest useful shots of your work, premises or team that you can take with a phone. Where those are not available, we can discuss licensed images or illustrations. These will never be presented as examples of work your business has completed.

I can rebuild the site on your existing domain. As part of the move, I review the current page addresses and set up appropriate redirects where they change, helping visitors and search engines find the replacement pages.

Yes. If you do not have one I will help you choose and register it. Domain registration is usually around £10 to £30 a year depending on the extension. You register it in your own name so you own it outright. I will just handle the technical setup.

Hosting setup is included and, for the small business sites I build, hosting costs are usually minimal or nil because of how the sites are built. I will be straight with you about any ongoing costs before you commit to anything.

Once the agreed balance is paid, the website belongs to you. Your domain is registered in your name, and you can move the site or work with another developer in future.

Yes. Every website includes the first month of Website Care, then £19.99/month for hosting, up to three small changes, monitoring, backups and minor fixes. You can upgrade to Local Visibility at £49/month or Local Growth at £99/month for ongoing SEO pages, Google Business Profile support and reports. Cancel before renewal; hosting can be handed over if you leave.

I also build shops, booking systems, customer portals and web applications. Practeese is one example, combining scheduling, reminders, intake forms and payments. These projects start with a discussion of the workflow and are quoted individually.

I use AI alongside other development tools for tasks such as drafting and debugging. I remain responsible for the design decisions, implementation, testing and delivery of your website.

I am based in Potters Bar and work with businesses across Hertfordshire and North London, as well as remotely across the UK. If you are local I am happy to meet in person. If you are not, everything works perfectly well over email, phone and WhatsApp.
