Are there any hidden costs?

No. Your quote is itemised and covers everything agreed in scope — design, development, SEO setup, testing, launch, and post-launch training. Any out-of-scope requests that come up during the project are discussed and priced before we proceed, never added quietly to an invoice. The only ongoing costs are hosting (from around £3.99–£8.99/month) and domain registration (around £10–£15/year).

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes. We offer phased payment plans — typically a deposit at project start, a second payment at design approval, and a final payment on launch. We'll discuss payment terms openly during your consultation and agree something that works for your business. There's no obligation to commit until you're happy with both the quote and the plan.

What's included in every website package?

Regardless of which level you choose, every project includes mobile-responsive design tested across real devices, WordPress CMS so you can manage the site yourself, basic on-page SEO setup, Google Analytics and Search Console integration, a contact form with spam protection, and 30 days of post-launch support. These are standard — not extras charged on top.

What affects the final cost of my project?

The main factors are number of pages, complexity of functionality, whether you provide your own content, and timeline. A 5-page brochure site is straightforward; a site with a booking system, WooCommerce store, or membership functionality takes significantly more development time. If you provide your own copy and images, that keeps costs down — if you need copywriting, we can quote for that separately. We discuss all of this openly before giving you a price.

Can I start with a smaller site and add to it later?

Yes. Many clients start with a Level 1 or Level 2 site and add e-commerce, booking systems, or additional pages as their business grows. WordPress and WooCommerce are both highly scalable — we can build on your existing site at any point without starting from scratch. This is often the most sensible approach for businesses that want to get online quickly but know their needs will expand.

What does website management cost after launch?

We offer monthly WordPress management packages covering core and plugin updates, daily backups, security monitoring, uptime monitoring, and content changes. Pricing is based on your site's size and requirements — get in touch for a personalised quote. Many clients combine a new build with a management plan so their site is looked after long-term without them having to think about it.

How long does a website take to build?

Level 1 sites typically take 2–4 weeks from receiving your content and sign-off. Level 2 and Level 3 projects typically take 4–8 weeks depending on complexity. Expedited timelines can sometimes be accommodated depending on availability. We agree a confirmed timeline at the start of every project and communicate clearly throughout — we won't go quiet mid-project.

Why Our Pricing Represents Real Value

What Affects the Final Cost of Your Website?

The packages above are starting points. Your final project cost depends on several factors, which we’ll always discuss openly before quoting:

Number of pages - More pages mean more design and development time. We agree a page count before work begins and price any additional pages clearly.
Complexity of functionality - Standard contact forms and galleries are straightforward. Booking systems, WooCommerce stores, membership areas, and custom integrations require additional development time.
Content - If you provide your own text and images, this keeps costs down. If you need copywriting or professional photography sourcing, we offer these as optional add-ons.
SEO scope - Basic on-page SEO is included in all packages. A full SEO setup including keyword research, schema implementation, and content strategy is available as an additional service.
Timeline - Standard delivery is 2–4 weeks for Level 1 and 4–8 weeks for Level 2 and 3. Expedited timelines may incur a premium depending on availability.

Additional Service Pricing

SEO Services – From £199/month (Starter Local SEO) to £599/month (Growth SEO), with Enterprise packages available on request. All packages include a free initial SEO audit.

Website Management – Monthly management packages available, covering WordPress core and plugin updates, daily backups, security monitoring, uptime monitoring, and content changes. Get in touch for a personalised quote.

Website Hosting – SiteGround managed WordPress hosting from approximately £3.99–£8.99/month depending on plan. Combined hosting and management packages available.
