Web Design
One-Time Build or Website Partner: which is right for me?
We offer two ways to get a website. Both get you a professionally designed site. The difference is how you pay, and who looks after it after launch.
In short: with the One-Time Build, we build it and you run it. With Website Partner, we build it, host it and look after it.
| One-Time Build | Website Partner | |
|---|---|---|
| How you pay | Once, up front | Monthly |
| Who looks after the site | You or your team | We do |
| Hosting | Free for the first year | Included as long as you’re a Partner |
| Minimum term | None | 12 months, then month to month |
| Best for | Teams with someone who can look after a website | Businesses that want low upfront cost and ongoing help |
Both plans include
- Up to 5 custom pages
- A design that works on phones, tablets and computers
- Google-ready SEO, so search engines can understand your site
- Free SSL, contact forms, newsletter sign-up forms and links to your social media
- Fast, secure hosting with daily offsite backups
- 24/7 email support, and real people on WhatsApp
Need more pages, a blog or an online store? We’ll quote those separately.
One-Time Build
You pay once, with no monthly fee. We build your site, launch it and hand it over. After that, updates and changes are up to you. Hosting is free for the first year, then it continues at our standard hosting rates.
Website Partner
No big upfront cost. We handle updates and security, and you send us small edits each month and we make them. It’s like having a website team on call, without hiring one. You never touch the code.
There’s a 12-month minimum, billed monthly. After that, it runs month to month. Wondering what happens if you leave? Read Who owns my website on Website Partner?
