The whole process

What happens, day by day

No meetings to sit through and nothing technical to learn. Here's exactly who does what, and how long it takes you.

  1. Day 1

    Build your free preview and pick a plan

    Pick your trade, type your business name and choose a style. Your website appears on a laptop and a phone straight away. If you like it, pick a plan. Your first payment starts the build, and there's no setup fee.

    YouAbout 5 minutes

  2. Day 2

    Answer a few quick questions

    I get in touch within one working day. I'll ask about your services, the areas you cover and any photos you'd like to use. If anything will take longer than a week, like moving a domain from another company, I'll tell you now.

    YouAbout 10 minutes

  3. Day 3

    I build, write and polish

    I turn your preview into the real thing: the pages, the words, your contact form, hosting and SSL. Then I check it on phones, tablets and laptops, and fix anything that looks off.

    CharlieNone of yours

  4. Day 4

    Live within 1 working day

    I send you a private link. Have a click around, then send me anything you'd like changed by email or WhatsApp. I make the changes before anything goes live.

What I'll need from you

Send them by email or WhatsApp, whenever suits. No rush: I can start with what's in your preview.

  • Your logoIf you don't have one, I'll set your business name in a clean typeface to start with.
  • A few photosYour work, your team or your premises. Photos from your phone are fine.
  • Your services and pricesA rough list is plenty. I'll write it up properly.
  • The areas you coverTowns, villages or postcodes, so local customers can find you.
  • Your opening hoursPlus any emergency, evening or weekend cover.
  • Any wording you loveA tagline, a review from a happy customer, the way you describe what you do.

No photos? No problem.

I'll use your preview's artwork until you have some. Send your own whenever you're ready, even months after launch, and I'll swap them in.

After you go live

Your plan keeps working in the background every month. When you need something changed, you message me like you would a friend who happens to build websites.

  • Hosting and SSL, kept running

    Fast hosting and the padlock, renewed for you. You'll never see a hosting bill.

    Every plan

  • Security updates

    I keep everything up to date so your site stays safe and quick.

    Every plan

  • Changes by email or WhatsApp

    New prices, holiday hours, a new photo. Send it over and I sort it.

    Starter: 1 a monthGrowth and Pro: unlimited

  • Priority edits

    Pro changes are done within 48 hours.

    Pro

  • A monthly performance report

    How many people visited, and how they found you.

    Pro

  • A real person to talk to

    You'll deal with me. I reply within one working day.

If plans change, here's what happens

Life gets in the way sometimes. None of this is a problem.

I want to leave

Cancel any month. There's no contract and no exit fee. You keep your domain, your text and your photos.

I need changes

WhatsApp or email me what you need. Changes are included in every plan, and Pro gets priority edits within 48 hours.

I don't like the design

You see your preview before you pay, and you review the whole site before it goes live, so there is time to change anything you are not keen on.

I already have a domain

Keep it. I'll point it at your new website for you, and it stays registered in your name. If you don't have one, a standard domain is included.

Questions about the process

Message CharlieI reply within one working dayAsk me a question
How long does it really take?

Most websites go live within 1 days of me getting your details. I'll tell you on day 2 if anything will take longer, for example if your domain needs moving from another company.

What if I don't have photos or a logo?

That's fine. I'll use your preview's artwork and a clean version of your business name to start with, and swap in your own whenever you send them.

Do I need to write the words?

No. Tell me what you do and where, on a call or in an email, and I'll write it up properly. You check everything before it goes live.

Can I see the site before it goes live?

Yes. On day 6 I send you a private link to click through, and I make your changes before launch.

Is there anything technical I need to do?

Nothing, unless you already have a domain name. Then I'll send you simple instructions to point it at your new website, or we can do it together on a quick call.

How do I ask for changes after launch?

Email or WhatsApp me. Starter includes 1 a month, and Growth and Pro include unlimited small edits. I'll let you know when it's done.

Is the preview really free?

Yes. No card and no account. You only pay if you pick a plan. Your first monthly payment starts your build.

What happens if I cancel?

Your plan stops at the end of the month you cancel in. You keep your domain name, your text and your photos. The design and hosting are part of the plan, but you can buy the site outright if you'd like to keep it.

Your 1 days start with a free preview.

Pick your trade, add your business name and see it on a laptop and a phone. If you like it, plans start at £49 a month with no contract.

Free. No card. About 60 seconds.
