Questions
Frequently asked questions
Why are HTML websites cheap to run?
They are just files — no platform to rent and no plugins to update. The only expected yearly bill is the domain, typically around £5.
Do I need to share my passwords?
No. If I put the site live, we sit together or share a screen while you log in. You own every account, and I never take your card details.
Is this a one-off cost, or are there monthly fees?
One-off: £125 for the website and guide, or £150 if I also put it live. After that you only pay me for changes (£20 minor, £30 for images, or a quote for larger work), plus about £5 a year for your domain.
Can you make a website for a plumber, a hairdresser or a dog groomer?
Yes — that is exactly who this is for. Have a look at the example designs and say if one is the right starting point.
Is this a cheap website for tradesmen, with no monthly fee?
Yes. Typical UK prices, Nov 2026: this model is about £130 in year one and £140 over three years, and you own the files. A typical website builder subscription is about £110–£175 a year, or £330–£520 over three years.
How do I get the site online once I have the HTML?
The Getting your site live guide takes about 30 to 60 minutes, or choose the £150 package and I do the upload with you.
How much does a website cost?
£125 for the website and go-live guide, or £150 if I also put it live. No monthly fee.
Which areas do you cover?
Matlock is the base, plus Matlock Bath, Cromford, Wirksworth, Darley Dale, Bakewell, Belper, Ashbourne, Chesterfield and the Peak District.
