Frequently asked questions
Are these prices fixed, or could the final quote be different?
Every price on this page is a starting point. Before any work begins, I agree the final scope and figure with you in writing — so there's no surprise invoice later.
How does payment work?
Typically 50% up front and 50% on delivery. For monthly retainers, it's a simple recurring monthly payment instead.
Do I have to sign up to ongoing support?
No. Continuous Website Intelligence is optional and exists for ongoing monitoring and care, from £150/month depending on scope. Most clients start with a one-off project — an assessment, a build, an SEO fix — and only add ongoing support later if they want someone keeping an eye on things month to month.
What happens if my project needs more time than quoted?
Additional work beyond the agreed scope is quoted up front, before it's carried out — never billed as a surprise. On retainers, unused hours don't roll over, and extra hours are quoted separately.
Can I combine services — for example, a security audit and an SEO fix?
Yes, and most clients do. A common path is to start with an audit (security or SEO) to see exactly where you stand, then move into hardening, a build, or ongoing optimisation from there.
I'm not sure which service I need — what should I do?
Tell me about your business and what's not working — a slow site, poor rankings, a security worry, or just general uncertainty — and I'll recommend the right starting point. No obligation.
