What you get

Bespoke website design

Designed around your business, not a template. Clear pages, easy to use.

Mobile-first build

Hand-built to load fast and look sharp on every phone, so visitors stay long enough to get in touch.

Booking and contact forms

Enquiries and booking requests land straight in your inbox, ready to answer.

SEO foundations

Set up so people in your area can find you on Google: clear pages, local details and the technical bits done properly.

AI search optimisation

More people now ask AI instead of searching. I structure your site so AI tools can read it and are more likely to mention you. Included in every build.

  • ChatGPT
  • Google AI Overviews
  • Perplexity

Two-year care plan

Hosting, security updates and small changes for two years, so your site keeps flying long after launch.

Kind words

What clients say.

Matt was incredibly helpful and easy to work with - i tried to build my own website and wasted a lot of time not really knowing what I was doing - in came Matt and sorted it all out. He also designed my logo and was very receptive to ideas and also to me changing my mind - he quickly understood the brief. He worked quickly, was very easy to communicate with and i would highly recommend his services to anyone. Thanks Matt!

Absolutely love my website! The whole process was so easy and stress-free, and they really brought my vision for MASG Therapy to life. Super friendly, helpful and professional throughout. Couldn’t be happier with the final result. Would definitely recommend!

How it works

Four steps, no surprises.

Most sites launch 3 to 5 weeks after the first call. You deal with me throughout, and nothing is outsourced.

  1. Free call

    A 30-minute chat about your business. No charge, no pressure. Book a time

  2. Design

    I send a design within days, not weeks. We tweak it until it's right.

  3. Build and launch

    Hand-built, speed-tested and checked for accessibility. The £50 a month starts at launch.

  4. Two years of care

    Updates, fixes, security and small changes are covered. Just message me.

Questions

Before you ask.

When do I pay the £300?

Only after our free call, once we've agreed what your site includes. It starts the design and build.

What does the £50 a month cover?

Hosting, security updates, small changes to words and images, new pages within reason, and direct access to me. It runs for two years from launch, with no auto-renewal.

How long does it take?

Most sites go from first call to launch in 3 to 5 weeks, depending on how quickly content and feedback come in.

Do I own my site and domain?

Yes. The site, the domain and your data are yours.

Do you only build for health practices?

No. Most of my clients are practitioners, but the same care suits any small business: tradespeople, accountants, coaches and consultants.

What happens after two years?

Carry on at the same rate, switch to help as and when you need it, or take the site on yourself. Your call, no lock-in.
