3–5 pages

Home, About, Services, Gallery, Contact — or whatever structure suits your business.

Hairdressers & barbers
B&Bs & self-catering
Farm shops
Gardeners & landscapers
Dog walkers & pet services

Questions

Can I update the site myself after it's built?

If you want to edit content yourself, I can add a CMS. That's the Business Site tier. The Simple Site is fixed-content: I build it, you approve it, and it stays as-is unless you ask for changes.

How long does it take?

Typically 1-2 weeks from the first conversation to going live, depending how quickly the design is agreed.

Do I need to pay for hosting separately?

Yes. Hosting and the domain name are separate from the build cost. I'll help you buy a domain, usually about £10/year, and set up hosting, usually about £5-£15/month depending on the site.

What if I want more pages later?

Easy. I can add pages or upgrade to the Business Site tier whenever you're ready.
