Before you buy anywhere
Five things to check
- 1.Is the domain registered in your name, or the designer's?
- 2.Is business email included, or an extra monthly cost?
- 3.Is there a per-page charge or a setup fee on top?
- 4.Is there a minimum contract before you can leave?
- 5.Can you see real websites they have built for businesses like yours?
A brand-new business has no reviews, no portfolio and no traffic. That changes what the first website should be: not a showcase, but something credible enough for a stranger to ring.
£350 all in covers the lot — including the domain and a business email address on it, which is usually the first thing a new business is missing — then £19.99 a month.
Month one
What a new business genuinely needs.
A domain in your business name
Registered to you, not to a designer or a builder. Get this right on day one and you never have to think about it again.
A business email address
you@yourbusiness.co.uk instead of a Gmail. It changes how quotes are read, and it is included.
One clear promise
What you do, who for, and where. New businesses usually try to say five things; the site works better saying one properly.
Something to ring or fill in
Tap-to-call, WhatsApp and a contact form that lands straight in your inbox. Nothing clever, just working.
What can wait
Do not spend money on these yet.
A shop, unless you are selling online now
Adding products later is easy. Building a shop you do not need first is a common way to lose a budget.
Ongoing SEO
The foundations come with the build. Paying monthly for SEO before you have a settled offer is premature; it starts at £119 a month whenever you are ready.
A full brand exercise
If you need a logo now, the £679 package does website, logo and print together. If you have a workable logo, keep it and spend the money on customers.
Booking, until you have bookings
When appointments start taking over your phone, booking can go into the site for £479 all in.
