A CLEAR PATH FROM IDEA TO LIVE WEBSITE
How it works.
Your website should feel straightforward from the first choice to the first enquiry. Here’s the full picture, in plain English.
From a starting point to your own site.
We begin with a style you like, then make the words, images and details fit your business. When the site is ready, you register your domain and set up hosting in your own accounts. We guide you through connecting them.
- Choose a stylePick a direction; the details can change.
- Make it yoursWe use your services, area, photos and contact details.
- Get onlineYour domain points to your website; customers contact you directly.
Choose a domain you’ll be happy to say out loud.
A domain is your website address, such as yourbusiness.co.uk. Buy it directly through a registrar in your own name. A short, easy-to-spell name is usually the best starting point.
Compare the first-year price with the renewal price before paying. You’ll keep renewing the domain for as long as you want to use it.
Give the website somewhere to live.
Hosting stores and serves the site when someone visits. For a straightforward small business site, a free plan may be enough. We’ll help you choose a suitable option and set up an account in your name.
Hosting and your domain are separate things. You can register a domain with one company and host your site with another.
One address. One destination.
Your domain settings tell the internet where to find your website. We’ll give you the details to enter and a simple guide for connecting them. You won’t need to send us your password.
It can take a little time for a new connection to work everywhere. We’ll check the site and its secure connection when it goes live.
Visitors reach you, directly.
People can call, open WhatsApp or use the contact form. Their enquiry goes to you. If you want an address such as hello@yourbusiness.co.uk, some registrars can forward incoming email to your existing inbox.
Email forwarding is for receiving messages; sending from that address may need a separate email service. We’ll keep those choices clear.
Keep control of the important bits.
- The domain is registered in your name.
- The hosting account belongs to you.
- You receive the website files.
- There’s no monthly website fee from us.
- We never ask you to share your passwords.
Domain renewals and any paid services you choose are billed directly by their providers.
