Pricing
Search "website design UK cost" and you get a hundred articles that end with "it depends" and a form. Here it does not depend. These are the three packages, what is in each, and what the extras cost. The number on the page is the number on the invoice.

Add-ons
Care plans
Monthly, no contract, cancel any time. Every plan starts after launch.
Monthly add-ons
Monthly, no contract, cancel any time. Your ad spend goes to Google directly; these prices are for the work.
What it brings back
The price is one side of the sum. The other is what the site brings in once Google has learned it, and that builds week on week. Two real clients' numbers, then the same sum against the three packages.
Bookings a week from the site
The site goes live inside two weeks, the sitemap is submitted and your Google listing matches it exactly. The first calls usually come from the listing before the site ranks for anything.
Google learns the pages and each service starts showing for its own searches. The first bookings arrive from people typing your service and your town. HairBiba took ten perm bookings in a single month.
Reviews stack up, the "near me" searches land on you and the diary fills from the site rather than your phone. Nida Thai Massage went from no online booking at all to ten plus a week.
Every page, post and review adds to the last one. Most clients have paid for the site by here, and it keeps going whether or not we are still involved, because nothing we build depends on us to stay up.
A salon · Starter, £395
£1,000a month from the site. Ten perm bookings a month at £100, what HairBiba saw in one month.
2 weeksand the site has paid for itself. Everything after is profit, and the same clients keep coming back.
A clinic · Business, £995
£1,000a month from the site. Four treatments a month at £250, one a week.
5 weeksand the site has paid for itself. Everything after is profit, and the same clients keep coming back.
A trade · Full Launch, £1,495
£2,400a month from the site. Two small jobs a month at £1,200.
3 weeksand the site has paid for itself. Everything after is profit, and the same clients keep coming back.
Nobody can promise a ranking, and we do not. What we promise is the work, done properly, a snapshot before and after, and the search numbers in plain English. The full picture is on the what-you-get page.
Money questions
Your Wix plan (roughly £10 to £20 a month depending on features) and a domain (about £10 a year) are paid by you directly to Wix, so the site is in your name. Fresha is free for the business. That is the whole list.
Because two of the things people buy anyway are already in it. The full brand kit is £295 as an add-on and the first month of Run search work is £299, so that is £594 of the price covered before you count the extra pages, the six months of blog posts or the ninety days of changes. Most people work that out and take it.
Yes. Half to start, half at launch. Full Launch can be split into three.
Then you do not pay for what you do not need. If you have a logo you like, the Business price drops by the £75 refresh. Good photos are the single biggest thing you can bring; we will tell you honestly if they are not good enough.
No. The site is built to be handed over, and we show you how to change prices and post to the blog yourself. Care plans are for people who would rather not think about it, which is most of our clients, but it is a choice, not a lock-in.
The long answer, with what other options cost: how much a small business website costs in the UK.
