Web design · Chester, Cheshire

Website design in Chester without the £3,000 invoice

Most Chester businesses get quoted thousands up front for a website. We flipped it: we build first, you approve, then it is £50 a month with design, hosting, domain and unlimited changes all included.

Your options for web design in Chester

Every Chester 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.

DIY website builder
£240–£360 a year

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.

Local freelancer
£800–£3,000 up front

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.

Design agency
£2,500–£10,000 up front

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.

Digital Market Stall
£50 a month, all in

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.

What you get for £50 a month

Genuinely bespoke, never a template

No themes, no page builders. Your site is designed around what your Chester customers need to see before they call, and it will not look like anyone else's.

Finished in 7 days, unlimited revisions

Your brief takes ten minutes. Seven days later you review a finished website, then ask for as many changes as you like. We keep going until you are happy, at no extra cost, ever.

No contract, and a £600 exit door

We have to earn your £50 every single month, because you can leave whenever you like. And if you ever want full ownership, £600 buys the site, the domain and the code outright.

Everything included, no surprise invoices

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.

Built to convert, mobile first

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.

You pay nothing until you sign off

We carry the risk, not you. No deposit, no setup fee. The £50 a month starts only when you have approved the finished site, and if you do not love it you simply walk away.

Web design in Chester: honest answers

How much does web design cost in Chester?

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.

How fast can my Chester business get a website?

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.

Why is it so much cheaper than Chester agencies?

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.

Can I not just build it myself on Wix or Squarespace?

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.

Do you actually work with businesses in Chester?

Yes. We are a UK service and we design, build and manage websites for independent businesses in Chester and right across the country. Everything happens by email and phone around your working day, which most owners prefer to meetings anyway.

Is it really bespoke, or a template with my logo?

Bespoke, from a blank page. No themes and no page builders. The structure, the words and the design are built around your business, which is why no two of our sites look alike.

The next step takes ten minutes

No setup fee, no contract, no risk: you only start paying when the finished site is exactly right. It takes ten minutes to claim a spot.
