Web design
Fast websites you own, with 12 months of SEO, hosting and support included.
Live 6 to 8 weeks after you accept your free PoPIt Preview. From £1,750, with a fixed quote before you commit. We cover 24 towns from our studio in Retford.
What it involves
A website earns its keep when somebody who was already looking for you ends up ringing you. That only happens if Google shows it to them and it loads before they lose patience, so we plan for speed and search from the first sketch. Your quote comes with a free PoPIt Preview, and the site goes live six to eight weeks after you accept it. When it is finished, the design, the code and the domain are yours.
What you get
See your home page first
Your quote comes with the PoPIt Preview: a first look at your home page, the pages we would build and a quick look at three local competitors. You see it all before you commit to anything.
Fast on a phone
Plain static pages with no page builder underneath, designed for a phone on a patchy signal first. They are built to open in under a second on normal 4G.
Words written with you
We write the copy with you, about your business, the way you would explain it to a customer over the counter.
SEO that keeps going after launch
Page titles, structured data, a sitemap and your Google listing are set up before launch. Then we keep working on it for a year, with a plain-English report each month and no separate bill.
Yours to keep
The design, the code, the words and the domain are yours. After the first year, move the site to your own hosting whenever you like and we will help.
Hosted and looked after for a year
Standard hosting on Amazon Web Services (AWS) is included for the first year. If anything goes wrong with the site in that time, we fix it at no extra cost.
When we build your website
The PoPIt Preview, free with your quote
Before you commit to anything, you see a first look at your home page, the pages we would build and a quick look at three local competitors. It costs you nothing.
Live 6 to 8 weeks after you say yes
The launch date goes in writing the day you accept your Preview, with design sign-off counted in. It holds as long as your words and feedback reach us on the dates we agree.
One price covers your first year
The build, then 12 months of SEO, support and standard hosting on Amazon Web Services (AWS), with no separate bills. If anything goes wrong in that year, we fix it. Shopify shops are hosted by Shopify.
You only pay when you're happy
The Preview is free. After that, every payment follows a yes from you, and the last one is only due when you're happy with the finished site and it goes live.
The price, up front
Our prices are on this site and the calculator gives you a figure now. There is no quote for a quote.
No lock-in
The site is yours. After the first year, we help you move it into an AWS account in your name, or keep looking after it.
Web design: your questions
How much does a website cost?
A simple site for a small business starts at £1,750, including 12 months of SEO, hosting and support. A larger site with more pages is usually £3,250 to £5,500, and a site for an established firm, 16 pages or more, starts at £5,500. An online shop starts around £4,750, and if it runs on Shopify, Shopify hosts it. The calculator on our pricing page gives you a rough figure in about thirty seconds, and it does not ask for your email.
How long does it take?
The site goes live six to eight weeks after you accept the PoPIt Preview that comes with your quote, as long as your words and feedback reach us when we need them. Very large sites can take longer. Either way, the launch date is in writing.
Do I own the website?
Yes. The design, the code, the content and the domain are yours. For the first 12 months the site runs on our AWS hosting; after that we help you move it into an AWS account in your name, or keep looking after it if you prefer. There is no lock-in.
What if I already have a website?
We will look at it for free and tell you whether it needs rebuilding or just fixing. If it only needs fixing, we fix what is slowing it down or keeping it off Google, without starting again.
Do you charge for changes after launch?
If anything goes wrong with the site in the first 12 months, we fix it at no extra cost. Small updates, such as new opening hours or a price change, are included in that first year too. New pages or features are quoted up front, so there are no surprise invoices.
What happens after the first 12 months?
You choose. We can help you open an Amazon Web Services (AWS) account in your business name and move the site into it, after which AWS bills you directly for the hosting. Or we keep managing the hosting and support for you from £45 a month. SEO can carry on month to month from £350 a month if you want it. We ask which you would like before the 12 months are up, and nothing ties you in.
