The websites

Not a template with your name on it.

We never start from a template, and we never resell one. Every PrimeStart website is drawn from scratch for one business. Four of them, side by side, the way most of your customers will see them — on a phone.

Where you workBramley Plumbing · plumber
What your work looks likeWrenfold Landscapes · landscaper
How to reach youFieldgate Electrical · electrician

Example websites, custom designed by PrimeStart to show the range — illustrations, not completed customer projects. Built on WordPress by us, generally up to five pages, designed for phones first.

Looked after for you

While you're on the job, we're on the website.

Hosting, your domain, SSL, security and backups. WordPress and plugin updates. Fixes when something breaks. Reasonable small changes — new hours, prices, photos — done by us, subject to fair use. Nothing for you to set up, renew or remember.

You run your business. We'll run your website.

Every PrimeStart website is built on WordPress by us and managed by us — you never need a WordPress login, and there is nothing technical to learn.

Your Client Platform

You always know where things are up to.

Every customer gets a dashboard. It is where the project lives and where the conversation happens: follow each stage, send your logo and photos, message us, review the website and request changes — before and after launch. Nothing to install, and no WordPress login.

Send information and files when it suits you — logo, photos, content, accreditations.

Approve the website before it goes live. Nothing is published until you have.

Choose your plan

Two plans. The difference is whether you want help being found.

Both are pay monthly, with £0 upfront website design fee. One gives you a complete managed website. The other adds ongoing SEO work to it, for one monthly figure.

SEO is the ongoing work of being the business they find. Here is how it plays out — and what the extra £270 a month pays for.

Website + SEO costs £270 a month more than Website alone. That pays for real work every month, listed in your report — not for promises. We can't guarantee a position on Google; nobody honest can.

Questions

The things people ask before they start.

Is there really no upfront website design fee?
There is no separate design or setup invoice. You pay your first monthly payment when you sign up, complete a short onboarding in your Client Platform, and once we have confirmed the project is Ready to Build the work begins.
Why is there a minimum term?
Because we absorb the cost of designing and building your website rather than charging for it up front, and recover it through the monthly service. Complete the term and the price drops automatically to £49.99 a month if you stay, or ownership becomes eligible for transfer and you can move it elsewhere.
How quickly will my website be ready?
We start once your project is Ready to Build, which is when we have what we need from you. You review the first draft, we make reasonable changes, and it goes live when you approve it.
What if I do not like the design?
You see the website before anyone else does. That is the Pre-Launch Design Promise: you review the first draft on your phone and your desktop, ask for reasonable changes, and nothing goes live until you have approved it.
What does Website include?
A professional website of generally up to five pages, your domain name, hosting, SSL, security, backups, updates, enquiry forms, the basic Google foundations, support, and reasonable small changes subject to fair use.
What is Website + SEO?
The same managed website, included, plus PrimeStart working every month on how easily local customers find your business on Google: three agreed searches, your Google Business Profile, your local listings, your website, and a clear monthly report. One monthly total, with the SEO work on a six-month minimum.
Do you build websites for my type of business?
Almost certainly. PrimeStart builds for trades, local services and small professional practices, and the structure, wording and enquiry route are designed around how your customers choose rather than dropped onto a generic template. If you would rather talk it through first, ask for a call.
