Why It Matters

Your Website Is Your Shop Window

There are more tools than ever that let you build a website yourself, and technically almost anyone can. But there is a real difference between having a website and having one that represents your business properly.

Your website is usually the first proper look a customer gets at your business, your experience and the quality of what you provide. If it looks dated, homemade or awkward to use, that shapes their opinion before you have even spoken to them.

You have spent years building your skills and your reputation. It would be a shame to undersell them with a website that does not reflect the standard of what you actually do.

And building it is only the beginning. Someone still has to host it, update it, keep it secure and make sure it carries on working.

You are already the accountant, the salesperson, the marketer, the social media manager and the administrator. Do you really need to be the web designer as well?

Every hour spent working out how to fix or update your website is an hour you are not spending looking after customers and growing your business.

That is where Solo comes in. We build your website, get it live and carry on looking after it. You concentrate on your business.

The Process

How It Works

Four stages, and we do the work in three of them.

01

Tell us what you need

A quick conversation about your business, your customers, and what your website actually has to do.

02

We build it

We create the design, the content structure and the pages, and we set up the hosting behind it. Most sites are ready to review within 10 days of receiving your content.

03

You approve it

You review the site, we make the agreed changes, and we prepare everything for launch.

04

We look after it

Hosting, maintenance, updates and technical support are handled for you from then on.

Pricing

Simple, Straightforward Pricing

We like to keep things simple. No complicated packages, no endless options, and no paying for things you do not need.

Website Build

From£495one-off

For most small business websites, £495 is what you will pay. If you need significant additional functionality, bespoke development or a particularly complex website, we will discuss it with you first and give you a clear price before any work begins.

Website Care

From£40per month

We host, maintain and look after your website, including routine updates, security, technical maintenance and ongoing support. For most businesses, our standard Website Care is all you need. If your website needs more regular updates or a higher level of management, we will tailor it around what you actually use.

No unnecessary extras. No complicated packages. Just a professional website, built and looked after for you.

Need more from your website?

Once your website is established and working properly, we can help you do more with it.
