A designer builds your site from a blank page, not a template. Hosting, your domain, SSL, daily backups and every future change are all in the £50. You see the finished website before you pay a penny.
Every Bude business wanting a website has four realistic routes. We are one of them, so read the other three carefully; if one suits you better, take it.
Wix, Squarespace and friends. Cheap and instant, but you are the designer, the copywriter and the IT department. Most owners lose several weekends and end up with a site that looks like a template, because it is one.
A good freelancer can do lovely work. You pay up front, hosting and updates are usually extra, and when they get busy or move on, so does your support. Changes after launch typically bill by the hour.
Agencies do beautiful work with proper process, and they price accordingly. For a five page small business site you are usually funding their office and account managers as much as your website.
One flat price that covers the design, the build, the hosting, the domain and every change you ever ask for. Cancel any month. Want to own it outright later? A one-off £600 buys the whole thing.
A designer starts from a blank page and structures the site around your business, your customers and what makes them pick up the phone. Put two of our sites side by side and they look nothing alike.
The build costs you nothing. If the finished site is not right and we cannot fix it, you owe us nothing and off you go. That is why we have to be good.
You see the first full version within a week of your brief, and revisions are unlimited and free, before launch and forever after it.
Cancel in any month, no questions, and your logo, photos and content stay yours. Want to own the whole site, domain and code? A one-off £600 buyout and it all transfers to you.
UK hosting, your domain name registered and renewed, SSL, daily backups, security patches and malware scans, all inside the £50. Updating your prices or photos never costs extra.
Fast load times, clean layouts and tap targets that work on a phone in a van, because that is where your customers are. Pretty is nice; converting visitors into calls is the job.
We build for trades, salons, cafés and restaurants, independent shops, consultants, coaches and every other kind of independent business in Bude and across Cornwall. If your customers search for what you do in Bude, your website should be the one that convinces them.
A fair benchmark for a small business site: DIY builders cost £240 to £360 a year plus your own time, freelancers typically charge £800 to £3,000 up front, and agencies £2,500 to £10,000, with hosting and changes billed on top. We charge £50 a month with no setup fee, and design, hosting, domain, SSL, backups and unlimited changes are all included.
The design and build, the copywriting, UK hosting, your domain name registered and renewed, SSL, daily backups, security patches, malware scans, and every content change you ever ask for. There are no extras to buy and no hourly rates.
We build every site with clean, fast code, proper page titles and descriptions, and the local signals search engines look for. No one can honestly guarantee rankings, but we make sure nothing about your site holds it back, and being quick and mobile-friendly is half the battle.
Seven days from brief to finished site. Your brief takes about ten minutes, a designer builds the site from scratch, and a week later you are reviewing the real thing, not a mock-up.
You can, and for some businesses that is the right call. Be honest about the cost though: the plans that remove their branding cost £240 to £360 a year, and the design, writing and upkeep are all evenings you will not get back. If the result does not convert visitors into calls, it is not cheap, it is just inexpensive.
It is not cheaper work, it is a different model. No office, no account managers, no sales team, and a hard cap of 250 clients so quality never slips. You get the same bespoke design; you just pay for the website rather than the overheads.
