Website setup

A lot of small businesses either have no website, or one that was built years ago and nobody can touch anymore because the person who built it has moved on. Both situations cost you the same thing: customers who look you up, find nothing useful, and move on to the next result.

We build a straightforward, working website using a platform you can maintain yourself once we've handed it over. No developer needed for a text change or a new photo. Built once, properly, then yours to run.

What's included

We start with what the website actually needs to do. For most small businesses, that's simple: say clearly what you do, make it easy to contact you, and look credible enough that a stranger trusts you. It doesn't need to be complicated to do its job well.

We build it on a platform suited to how much you'll want to touch it yourself afterwards, matching your comfort level with technology rather than defaulting to whatever's trendiest. Then we make sure the basics are actually done properly: clear navigation, working contact forms, mobile friendly, and reasonably fast to load, since a slow site loses visitors before they've read a word.

Before handover, we walk you through how to make basic updates yourself, so you're not stuck waiting on anyone for a simple change.

What you walk away with

• A complete, working website live under your own domain
• Clear instructions on how to make basic updates yourself
• Mobile friendly, reasonably fast, and set up for the essentials: what you do, how to contact you, why to trust you

Questions

Do I need to already have a domain name?

No. We can help you choose and buy one if you don't have one yet.

Will I be able to update it myself after?

Yes, that's the point. We build it on a platform suited to your comfort level and walk you through the basics before handover.

Do you manage the website ongoing?

No. We build it properly and hand it over. If you want a bigger update later, that's a separate project, not an ongoing retainer.
