How much does a website cost?

It depends on the size of the site and how much of it needs building from scratch. A small brochure site for a local business is a very different job to a multi service site with location pages. Tell me what you need and I will give you a fixed price up front, so there are no surprises later.

How long does a build take?

Most small business sites take a few weeks from first conversation to launch. The biggest factor is usually how quickly content and photos come back to me, not the build itself. If you have a deadline, say so early and I will tell you honestly whether it is realistic.

Do you work with businesses outside Warwickshire?

Yes. I am based near Rugby and work with plenty of businesses across Warwickshire and the Midlands, but the work is fully remote so location is not a barrier. I take on clients across the UK. Calls, email and shared previews cover everything a meeting would.

What happens after launch?

You are not left on your own. I offer care and updates covering hosting checks, content changes, and keeping things secure and fast. If you would rather look after it yourself, I will show you how and hand everything over cleanly.

Do you handle domains and email?

Yes. I can register a domain, point it at your site, and set up business email on your own domain so you stop sending quotes from a personal address. If you already have a domain elsewhere, I can work with that or move it across for you.

Do you write the copy?

I can. Most clients give me a rough idea of what they do and who they serve, and I turn that into clear, plain English copy for the site. If you would prefer to write it yourself, that is fine too, and I will tell you where it needs tightening.

What makes you different from a website builder?

Website builders give you a template and leave the hard parts to you: speed, structure, search visibility and making the thing actually bring in enquiries. I build custom, fast sites and handle the technical groundwork that templates skip. You also get a person to ring when something needs changing.

What clients say.

Straight from the people whose sites I built.

Ben completely transformed our online presence, rescuing us from a slow, outdated WordPress site that was doing our business no favours. He delivered a stunning, lightning-fast new website and made the entire upgrade effortless. Highly recommended!

Ben built the Rugby Snagging website from the ground up, and he absolutely knocked it out of the park for our launch. He delivered a fast, highly professional site that instantly built trust with our new clients and made booking surveys effortless.

Social content that actually travels.

Spencer is my Vizsla, and I run his accounts myself. Every video, caption and posting decision is mine, so the reach below is what I have learned to do with short form content rather than a theory I read somewhere. It is the same thinking I bring to client work. More on social media and content.

729.2K: Views in the last 30 days
447K: Accounts reached
+909: New followers
70.6%: Audience aged 18 to 34
