WEBSITES FOR LOCAL BUSINESSES
A website that wins you work, built by a cyber security company.
I design and build websites for local businesses, set up properly and secure from day one. You see a working preview of your new site before you pay anything.
- Free preview before you pay
- Fixed price, agreed up front
- Security set up properly
A real preview, built before anything was agreed. Open it in its own tab to use it properly.
The website you are reading is mine as well. I designed and built every page of it, and a studio quoting that scope would be somewhere around £35,000. Your site costs a fraction of that because it is a fraction of the work, and because there is nobody in the middle.
HOW IT WORKS
See it first. Pay when you are happy.
01, free
Preview
I study your business, your reviews and your competitors, then build a working preview of your new site.
02
Refine
We go through it together. Your photos, your prices, your words, until it feels like yours.
03
Launch
I connect your domain, set up secure hosting and email protection, and put the site live.
04
Hand over
Your site, domain and hosting are set up in your name, with a short guide. It is yours, with no monthly fees to me.
SECURE FROM DAY ONE
Most small business sites are left wide open. Yours will not be.
I build security software for a living, and every site I make is set up to the same standard. That protects your customers, and it protects your name.
- Locked down before it goes liveHTTPS on every page, renewed automatically, and the security headers most small sites never set.
- Nothing bolted on that can be broken intoNo page builder plugins, which is how most small business sites get hacked. Less to go wrong, and nothing quietly going out of date behind your back.
- Forms that do not fill with spamEnquiries reach you, junk does not, and nothing is stored that does not need to be.
- No trackers you did not ask forNo advertising scripts following your customers around unless you choose them.
Worried about somebody sending fake invoices in your name? That is protecting your domain's email rather than your website, so I quote it separately. The check below tells you where you stand, free, before you decide anything.

Changes after launch are £75 each, quoted before I start. Bigger changes are quoted as a fixed price. No contract, and no monthly fee.
Need a logo as well? A new logo, colours and fonts alongside any site is £500. Two designs to choose from and one round of changes, so it does not turn into a project of its own.
Want it looked after? £35 a month covers updates, backups, an eye on whether the site is up, and one small change a month. Start it or stop it whenever you like. Nothing here needs it.
Founding clients: my first three clients get 20% off in return for a short testimonial. Already have a website? I can rebuild it too.
QUESTIONS
What people ask first.
Is the preview really free?
Yes. I build a working preview of your site before you pay anything. If it is not right for you, you walk away and owe nothing.
How long does it take?
A preview usually takes a few days. Once you are happy with it and I have your photos and details, most sites go live within a week or two.
Do I own my website?
Yes. The domain and hosting are set up in your name, and the site and its content are yours from the day it goes live.
Are there any monthly fees?
None that you have to pay. Your domain costs around £10 a year, and the hosting I set up is usually free for a site like this. If you want changes later, I quote them one at a time. There is an optional looking-after plan at £35 a month if you would rather not think about it, and you can stop it whenever you like.
I do not have a domain name. Is that a problem?
Not at all. I will help you choose one and register it in your name. A .co.uk address typically costs around £10 a year.
Why does a cyber security company build websites?
Because I already build secure software for a living, and most small business sites are set up badly. You get a good-looking site that is also properly protected, which is rarer than it should be.
Where are you based?
County Durham. I work with businesses across the North East and North Yorkshire, and further afield by video call.
