Pricing

What a website really costs.

Every project gets a fixed quote in writing before we start — the price you agree is the price you pay. These are the honest starting points, and exactly what they include.

01 The packages

Three starting points.

Landing page

from £149

Good for: one service · a launch · an offer · testing an idea

One focused page with a single clear goal — get people to call, book, or enquire. Designed around your business, written to convert, and built to perform.

  • Custom design & hand-built page
  • Contact form, phone & booking links
  • Looks right on every phone and screen
  • Search-friendly markup & meta tags
  • Connected to your own domain
  • Plain-English handover note

Portfolio & showcase

from £199

Good for: photographers · makers · creatives · small catalogues

A simple, elegant site that puts your work front and centre — fast to browse, beautiful on a phone, easy to keep fresh.

  • Everything in the landing page
  • Gallery or curated project showcase
  • About & contact pages
  • Image optimisation so it stays fast

Need more pages, an online shop, or something unusual? Those are quoted per project — tell me what you have in mind and you’ll get a straight answer.

Every package includes two rounds of changes; further rounds are £40 each.

04 Money questions

Fair questions, straight answers.

Why are your prices so much lower than an agency’s?

Because you’re only paying for the work. An agency quote covers project managers, account managers, office rent and margins on all of it. I’m one person doing the designing and building myself, so a comparable site costs a fraction of the £3,000+ an agency would charge.

Are there any hidden or ongoing costs?

No hidden ones. The build price is fixed before we start. Ongoing, you’ll pay for your own domain (roughly £10–15 a year) and hosting — which for most small sites is free or nearly free. Both sit in your accounts, so you see exactly what you pay.

How does payment work?

Half when we start, half when the site goes live. No payment until you’ve agreed a fixed quote in writing.

Does the price include writing the words and finding photos?

Light editing and shaping of your content is always included. If you need the copy written from scratch or stock imagery sourced, that’s a small add-on we agree up front — see the list above.

What if I need changes after launch?

Small tweaks in the first two weeks after launch are free. After that you can make simple edits yourself with the handover note, or send me one-off changes at £40 an hour — no monthly fee, no lock-in.
