Taking on new businesses this month

Your customersare Googling you.Are you there?

I build websites for local businesses around Wideopen, Gosforth and Killingworth — from £99 a month, with no big bill upfront. You send me your details once, and I look after the rest.

Who I build for

Independent businesses that are good at what they do, and invisible the moment somebody searches for them.

  • The interior of a barbershop, with leather chairs facing mirrors under warm pendant lights.

  • A bright hair salon with a round mirror, styling chair and shelves of products.
    Hair & beauty salons
  • A busy commercial kitchen with steam rising from a pan and pots stacked along the counter.
    Takeaways
  • A café counter with an espresso machine and a chalkboard menu, looking out on to a street.

The problem

If they can'tfind you, theyfind someone else.

Someone asks a mate where to go. The mate says your name. And then — every single time now — they get their phone out and search for you before they walk in.

If there’s nothing to find, they don’t ring to check. They scroll down and pick whoever turned up first, with the photos and the opening hours and the reviews. That’s a customer you earned and lost in about four seconds, and you’ll never know it happened.

A Facebook page helps, but it doesn’t show up on Google Maps, and you don’t own it. A website is the bit that catches everyone your reputation sends you.

“We don’t really need one — we’re busy enough.”

Maybe not. But the businesses ranking above you in that search weren’t busier than you — they just turned up. I’d rather you were the one they find.

What you get

Websites. That's it —and done properly.

I don’t run your social media or sell you ad campaigns. I build the website, get it found, and keep it working.

01

The website itself

A clean, fast site that works properly on a phone — which is where nearly all of your customers will see it.

  • Designed for phones first
  • Loads in under two seconds
  • Your phone number always one tap away
  • Opening hours, address and directions
02

Getting found on Google

Your site set up so Google understands who you are, where you are and what you do.

  • Built so Google can read it properly
  • Your town and trade in the right places
  • New site linked on your Google listing
  • Listed correctly on Google Maps
03

Domain and hosting

The boring, essential bits — handled, and included in the price.

  • Domain registered for you
  • Hosting and SSL included
  • Backups and security updates
  • No separate bills to think about
04

Changes, whenever

Prices gone up? New photos? Message me and it's done — no invoice, no waiting.

  • Text or email the change, I do it
  • No charge per edit on Growth and Pro
  • Usually same day, always within two
  • New photos, prices, hours, staff, services

How it works

Five steps, andfour of them are mine.

  1. 01

    A five-minute chat

    In person, on the phone, or over a message — whatever suits. I'll ask what you do and show you what's missing when someone Googles you. No charge, no pressure.

  2. 02

    You send me the basics

    Your opening hours, services and prices, a few photos, your logo if you have one. Ten minutes of your time, once. If you don't have photos, I'll sort that.

  3. 03

    I build it

    You get a link to look at before anything goes public. Tell me what you want changed. There is no limit on that — it goes live when you're happy with it.

  4. 04

    It goes live

    Domain pointed, site published, and your new website added to your Google listing so people searching for you actually land on it.

  5. 05

    I look after it

    That's what the monthly fee is for. Updates, changes, hosting, keeping it secure. You get on with running your business.

Fair questions

The thingspeople actuallyask me.

You might well do. But when someone new asks their mates for a recommendation, the next thing they do is Google you — and if there's nothing there, they scroll to whoever is. A website doesn't replace word of mouth, it catches the people word of mouth sends who then want to check you're real.

It's about the price of two haircuts a month, and on Growth and Pro there's nothing to pay upfront at all. If it brings you one extra customer a week it has paid for itself several times over. If money's tight, Starter is £99 and does the essential job.

That is exactly the point of paying someone. I need about ten minutes of your time at the start for your details and photos, and then a look at the draft before it goes live. After that you do nothing — you carry on working and I keep the site running.

Facebook is genuinely useful and I'm not going to tell you to drop it. But you don't own it, it can change the rules whenever it likes, and it doesn't put you on Google Maps. A website works alongside your page and catches the people who will never find you on Facebook.

Usually because nobody touched it after it went live. Prices went out of date, the hours were wrong, and Google stopped bothering with it. The monthly fee here exists specifically so that doesn't happen — the site stays current because keeping it current is my job.

On Growth and Pro, yes — the build costs you nothing if you stay on the plan for twelve months. If you leave early, the waived build fee becomes payable, which is the only thing that makes the offer possible. On Starter there's usually a small one-off fee instead, and a bigger-than-usual build may carry one too. You'll always be told the number before you agree.

Where I work

Local enough towalk through your door.

Not on the list? Everything here works just as well over the phone and email — I work with businesses across the UK, you just get video calls instead of visits.

Let's see what yourswould look like.

Tell me what you do and I’ll show you what I’d build — free, no obligation, and I won’t chase you afterwards.
