Sole traders · self-employed

Website design for sole traders, built by one too.

A site that makes a one-person business look as capable as it is, without pretending to be a company.

Sole traders get pushed into two bad choices: a site that pretends to be a twenty-person firm, or no site at all because the quotes were absurd.

There is a third option. £350 all in for a proper site that says exactly what you do and who you are, then £19.99 a month. I run a one-person business too, so the schedule fits around actual work.

What works for one person

Say it straight, and win the job.

Be the person, not the 'we'

Customers choosing a sole trader are choosing you. Your name, your face and your years of experience do more work than corporate wording.

Your own photos

Pictures of your own jobs beat stock images by a mile, and cost nothing but a phone camera.

One number, answered

Tap-to-call and WhatsApp up front, so a customer can reach you between jobs instead of filling in a form.

Honest availability

Saying what your hours are and how quickly you reply stops the wrong calls and reassures the right ones.

Practical bits

The things sole traders actually ask about.

Fixed price, no retainer

£350 all in, then £19.99 a month. No agency retainer and no minimum term.

Half up front

50% deposit to start, balance on completion, so the money follows the work.

Changes without an invoice

Price changes, a new service, different photos — part of the monthly support.

Evenings and weekends

The studio answers 08:00–20:00 every day on 07999 090582, which is when self-employed people are free.

Common questions

Straight answers.

Is a website worth it for a sole trader?
It is if customers check you before they call, which most now do. A site you own also means you are not dependent on a directory or a Facebook page you do not control.
How much does a sole trader website cost?
£350 all in, including your domain, a business email address, SSL and the first three months of hosting, then £19.99 a month for hosting, maintenance and support.
Can I keep using my mobile number?
Yes, and you should. The site uses your real number with tap-to-call, and WhatsApp if you use it for work.
What if I do not want my face on it?
Then it does not go on. Your work and your reviews can carry the site instead.
