Choosing a Website Plan, Without the Jargon
Not sure what hosting, SSL or SEO actually mean? You're not alone. This page explains everything in my plans in plain English, and which plan suits which kind of business. Choosing comes down to three simple steps.
Pick the Size of Site You Need
Starter, Growth or Pro. The main differences are how many pages you get and extras like online booking and a blog.
Pick How You Want to Pay
A monthly plan with hosting and updates included, or a one-time payment for the build.
Leave the Technical Side to Me
I design, build and launch your site, and explain every step in normal language along the way.
What Everything in My Plans Means
Every feature in the price list, explained in normal language, with which plans include it.
Pages
A page is one screen of your website, like Home, About, Services or Contact. Starter includes up to 5, Growth up to 10 and Pro up to 20. Growth can add up to 2 extra pages (£120 each) and Pro up to 5 (£80 each).
Custom Design
Your site is designed from scratch around your business, your brand and your customers, not dropped into a template hundreds of other businesses use. Included on every plan.
Rounds of Revisions
A round of revisions is when you look over the design, send me a list of changes and I make them all. Starter includes 2 rounds, Growth 3 and Pro 4.
Hosting, SSL & Security
Hosting is where your website lives so people can visit it. SSL is the padlock in the browser bar that tells visitors your site is safe. Included on monthly plans, or £20 a month on a one-time build.
Content Updates
New opening hours, prices or photos? Send me the change and I'll make it for you, so you never have to log in to anything. Included on monthly plans, or £40 a month on a one-time build.
On-Page SEO
SEO helps your site show up on Google. Basic SEO (Starter and Growth) sets up your page titles, descriptions and headings properly. Strategic SEO (Pro) goes further and plans your pages around what your customers actually search for.
Contact Form
A simple form visitors fill in to get in touch with you. Their message goes straight to your email inbox. Included on every plan.
Blog
A news or tips section on your site where new posts can be added. It gives customers a reason to come back and gives Google more reasons to show your site. Included on Growth and Pro.
Booking & Scheduling
Lets customers book an appointment straight from your website at any time of day, without phone tag or back-and-forth emails. Included on Growth and Pro.
Ongoing Design Changes
As your business changes, your site changes with it: new sections, new layouts and a fresh look for existing pages, not just text swaps. Included on the Pro monthly plan.
Quarterly Performance Review
Every three months I look at how many people visit your site, where they come from and what they do, then tell you in plain English what to improve next. Included on the Pro monthly plan.
Support & Redesign
Starter monthly plans get email support, and Growth and Pro get priority support, so your requests go to the front of the queue. Monthly plans can have a full redesign after 36 months. One-time builds include 30 days of support after launch.
Which Plan Suits Your Business?
Every business is different, but most fit one of these three. If you're stuck between two, get in touch and I'll give you an honest recommendation. I'd rather you start on the right plan than the biggest one.
Starter: Getting Online
£150 a month or £3,500 one-time
See the Starter plan
Best for sole traders, tradespeople, consultants and new businesses. If customers mainly need to find you, see what you do and call or message you, Starter covers it with a clear, professional site of up to 5 pages.Growth: Taking Bookings
£275 a month or £6,000 one-time
See the Growth plan
Best for appointment-based businesses like salons, clinics, personal trainers, dog groomers and cafés. Online booking lets customers book any time, and a blog helps you get found on Google. Up to 10 pages. This is the plan I recommend most.Pro: Staying Ahead
£400 a month or £8,000 one-time
See the Pro plan
Best for established businesses with lots of services or more than one location, often in busy markets like dental, legal or estate agency. Up to 20 pages, strategic SEO and, on the monthly plan, ongoing design changes and a quarterly performance review.
Monthly or One-Time: What's the Difference?
Both options get you the same custom-built website. The difference is how you pay for it and who looks after it once it's live.
Monthly: Low Upfront Cost
No setup fee. You pay your first month when you sign. The first 12 months are the minimum term, then it rolls on month to month and you can cancel with 30 days' notice.
Read the monthly termsMonthly: Everything Looked After
Hosting, security, content updates and support are all included, so you never have to think about the technical side. Your domain, content and data stay yours, and you can buy the site outright later if you want to.
How hosting and care workOne-Time: Own It Outright
Pay 50% when you sign and the rest when your site is finished. Once it's paid for, the code and designs are yours. Every build includes 30 days of support after launch.
Read the one-time termsOne-Time: Add Care When You Need It
Add hosting, SSL and security for £20 a month and content updates for £40 a month. A good fit if you'd rather pay once and keep your running costs low.

Choose Your Plan and How You Pay
