How it works

1
A quick chat

Fifteen minutes in person or on the phone. What you do, what you want people to know and what photos you already have.

2
Built within the week

You see a draft, tell us what to change in plain English and it goes live once you are happy.

3
Verified and connected

Google sometimes posts a code to your premises or asks for a short video, so this step is done together. Takes minutes.

4
Looked after

Send changes over whenever you like and they are handled on the monthly plan. Reviews are watched so you do not have to.

Where we work

Based in Canterbury. We build websites and Google Business profiles for cafés, pubs, salons, trades, tutors, coaches and shops in Whitstable, Herne Bay, Faversham, Margate, Ramsgate, Broadstairs, Deal, Dover, Folkestone, Ashford and Maidstone, and online for businesses anywhere in the UK.

Straight answers

Why is this so much cheaper than a web designer?

Because you do not need what a big agency sells. A local business needs one fast page that says what you do, where you are and when you are open. Building that efficiently is the whole point, and you are not paying for an office or an account manager.

Why is the launch price £245?

We are new and we want the first ten businesses on the street to be a range of trades across Kent. So the first ten pay £245 to get set up instead of £445. Same build, same Google profile, same email, same care afterwards. Once ten are live the price goes back to £445 and nobody already on the street is affected.

Who owns the website and the email?

You do. The domain is registered in your name and the accounts are yours with us as the person managing them. If you ever want to move on, everything is handed over cleanly.

What counts as an update?

Changing your hours, swapping photos, updating a menu or price list, adding an announcement. Two of these are included every month. Bigger jobs are quoted separately so there are never surprises.

Do I have to sign a contract?

No. The monthly plan rolls month to month and you can stop whenever you like. The setup fee is the only fixed cost.

I already have a Facebook page. Is that not enough?

Facebook is useful but plenty of your customers are not on it, and Google is where people look first. A website plus a proper Google profile means you show up when someone nearby searches for what you do.

How fast can I be live?

Usually within a week of our first chat, sometimes faster if you already have photos and your details ready.

Do you work outside Kent?

Yes. Everything is done online, so we work with businesses across the UK. Being in Canterbury means we can turn up in person anywhere in east Kent, from Whitstable, Herne Bay and Faversham round to Margate, Ramsgate, Deal, Dover and Folkestone, and Ashford and Maidstone are an easy drive.

What is calm mode?

A switch at the top of every site we build. It turns off animation and glow, raises contrast and makes the page quieter. Some people need it, everyone is welcome to use it.
