Most Grange-Over-Sands 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.
Every Grange-Over-Sands 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.
Often great value if you find a good one with availability. Budget separately for hosting, the domain, and £60 to £120 an hour for changes after launch, which is where the quiet costs live.
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.
Most of your Grange-Over-Sands customers will find you on a phone. Every site is designed on a phone screen first: fast loading, readable without zooming, and a phone number a thumb can actually hit.
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.
Hosting, domain, SSL, backups, security and every content change are in the price. Compare that with £60 to £120 an hour for changes after a traditional build.
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.
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.
Grange-Over-Sands is exactly the kind of place we built this service for: proper businesses that deserve better than a template but should not have to fund an agency's office to get it.
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.
Only after you have reviewed the finished website, asked for any changes you want, and signed it off. No deposit, no setup fee, nothing up front. If you do not approve it, you pay nothing at all.
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.
There is no contract, so you can cancel in any month and keep your logo, content and photos. If you want the website itself, a one-off £600 buyout transfers the site, the domain and the code to you completely.
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.
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.
