Three homepages, built to put your photography first

These are full homepage designs, not sketches — scroll each one right through. Same two people, three completely different businesses. Your photographs are what make the difference, and we will help you get them.

Invented businesses, stand-in pictures. Everything here is a mock-up — the images are standing in to show you how much of the work a big picture does. Yours would go in their place, and we will help you get them. Scroll each design right to the bottom. The counters, the reviews and the scrolling strips all run live.

Nobody hires a trade they can't look up first.

That's the whole argument for having one.
  • They check you before they ringSomeone passes on your number. The first thing they do is search your name. If nothing sensible comes up, a lot of them carry on searching.
  • It answers what you're sick of answeringPrices, hours, the areas you cover, whether you do that one awkward job. Written down once, instead of said on the phone forty times.
  • A Facebook page isn't the same thingIt won't come up when someone types "plumber Ipswich", it's full of other people's posts, and you don't own it.

Straight answer, though. A website won't create work that isn't there. It converts people who are already looking you up, and makes a one-van outfit look worth £3,000 of someone's money. That's it — but that's most of the job.

Why we build it before you pay

Most people we speak to have either been burnt before or have never had a website and can't picture what they'd be buying. Asking someone for £500 on the strength of a phone call is a lot, so we don't. If we're any good you'll want it. If we're not, you've lost twenty minutes.

A quick chat on the phone

Twenty minutes. We ask what you do, who your customers are, and what you'd want people to see first.

We build the first draft

The real website, not a sketch. About a week. Still nothing to pay at this point.

You look, and tell us what to change

Have a proper click round it on your phone. Anything you don't like, say so and we'll change it.

Pay only if you like it

If it's right, you pay once and we put it live. If it isn't, you walk away and it hasn't cost you a penny.

What we can actually build

Not a list of buzzwords — everything below is running live on this page. Drag it, tap it, move the sliders, hover the cards. If you can do it here, we can put it on your site.

The same thing, for a real job

Every trade has a before. A garden, a bathroom, a boiler cupboard, a haircut. Put the two photos side by side with a handle in the middle and people will drag it back and forth for longer than they'd read any paragraph you wrote. Drag this one.

This is the mechanism we'd put on your site with your own photos. Phone snaps are fine — it's the contrast that does the work.

BEFORE AFTER

Your work, always on the move

A strip of jobs drifting past — one row left, one row right. It stops when someone hovers so they can look properly. Placeholder tiles for now; your photos go in here.

Opening hours that know the time

Instead of a table people have to read, the site just tells them whether you're open right now. It changes by itself.

LIVE, RIGHT NOW
Checking…

Numbers that count up

Years on the job, reviews, jobs finished. They roll up when someone scrolls to them, which makes people stop and read.

A gallery people click through

Your work, big and easy to browse. Tap a thumbnail and the main picture changes without the page reloading.

Reviews that rotate

Your best Google reviews cycling on the front page, so the first thing anyone reads is somebody else vouching for you.

CHANGES EVERY FIVE SECONDS

"Boiler packed in on the coldest night of the year. Out within the hour and had it going before bedtime."

Sarah W. — Woodbridge

"Quoted £3,600 for the bathroom and that's exactly what we paid. Took all the rubbish away too."

Mr & Mrs Patel — Stowmarket

"Third plumber we rang and the only one who turned up when he said he would."

Ian B. — Ipswich

A price they work out themselves

People want a number before they ring. Let them move a slider and get a ballpark, and you get enquiries from people who already know roughly what it costs.

Things that arrive as you scroll

Sections fading and sliding into place as someone moves down the page. Subtle, but it's the difference between a site that feels new and one that feels like a leaflet.

We're two college students, and we'd rather tell you ourselves

Otto and Max. We're at college in Suffolk and we've spent the past couple of years learning to build websites properly: how they're designed, how they're put together, and why so many small-business ones fall short of what the business deserves.

You're going to wonder whether that matters. Here's the honest version. It means we cost a fraction of what an agency charges. It means you get the two people doing the work instead of an account manager. And it means we care an unreasonable amount about the first sites we put our names to. You shouldn't take our word for any of that, so don't. Judge the work instead.

Websites are the whole business at the moment. Plumbers, barbers, landscapers, cafes, cleaners, sparkies, groomers, anyone running something small and local. Most have either never had a website or have one they're quietly embarrassed by. You can ring either one of us and get an answer. There is nobody else to be passed to.

Otto

Does the building. The site itself, the domain, the hosting, and getting you turning up on Google when somebody searches your trade and your town. Usually the one who answers if you ring during the day.

Max

Does the look of it. The layout, the colours, and making the photos off your phone good enough to put on a website. He is building our social media service for later this year, and he answers the phone just as often.

What we actually do

Build you a website

From nothing. Send us your logo, some photos and your prices, and we do the rest.

Fix the one you've got

If it's dated, slow or unreadable on a phone, we rebuild it properly and keep whatever still works.

Keep it up to date

Prices change, you take on staff, you add a service. Send us the details and we’ll update the site. That is what the £15 a month is for, so you are not paying us again each time. One set of changes a month is plenty for a business like yours, so that is what it covers.

Get you found locally

Google Business Profile, maps, opening hours and reviews set up so you turn up when someone searches your trade and your town.

Two prices, then fifteen a month to keep it running

One payment when the site goes live, then £15 a month to keep it there. That covers the hosting, your domain and its renewals, the security certificate, backups, and one set of changes a month, which is more than most businesses ever use. The first six months are committed, and after that you can stop any time with a month’s notice. If you do stop, the website and the domain are handed over to you and they are yours to keep.

six months minimum, then a month’s notice

Separate pages, online booking and your reviews on the site. Right if you've got a team, a shop, or jobs worth showing off.

  • Everything in Starter, plus:
  • Changes until you're happy. No limit while we are building it, until you say it's right.
  • As many pages as the business needs, usually five to seven
  • A page for each service you offer
  • Online booking or quote form, with dates and photo upload
  • Your Google reviews pulled onto the site
  • Google Business Profile set up and verified
  • Logo tidied up, or one made if you haven't got one

Leaving. The first six months are committed. After that, tell us and we will stop it a month later. When it stops you get the domain put into your name and the website files, at no charge. If you then want something changed that you cannot do yourself, we still do it, usually £20 to £50 depending on the size of the job, and we tell you the price before we start. Need something bigger — an online shop, customer logins, several locations? Tell us what you're after and we'll quote it properly. Ask about a custom build.

Still not sure which one fits?

Tell us what you do and we'll say which we'd build, even if that's the cheaper one.

Social media management, coming later this year

Right now we do one thing: build and look after websites. Max is putting together a service that would run your Facebook and Instagram for you — posts written and designed, your job photos tidied up, comments answered.

It isn't ready and we aren't taking money for it yet. If you'd like a nudge when it starts, tick the box on the enquiry form and we'll let you know. No list, no newsletter, just the one message.

In the works
  • Posts written and designed for you
  • Your phone photos made to look good
  • Comments and messages answered
  • A one-page report each month

Pricing not set yet.

Tell us what you need

A few details about the business and we'll get started. If you don't actually need a website, we'll say so.

Or just ring us

Messages and emails get answered the same day. There are only two of us and we are at college, so calls are best from 5pm to 8pm on weekdays and between 12pm and 5pm at weekends. If we cannot pick up, send a message and you will hear back.
