Design Process FAQ's Price Guide
In this initial phase, we get to know you, your business, and your unique requirements. We engage in a comprehensive discussion, covering aspects such as the number of pages, editability, e-commerce capabilities, and any specific functionalities you desire. We also delve into your desired outcomes, whether it's increased enquiries, higher-quality leads, boosted sales, or enhanced website traffic. Based on this understanding, we produce a tailored proposal.
With a clear brief in hand, we start the design journey for your new website. We develop one to three design concepts, keeping you closely involved in the process to ensure we align with your vision. Your feedback is crucial as we strive to create a design that not only meets but exceeds your requirements. Once you're satisfied with the website's design, we establish a build timeline. Any final adjustments are addressed before we proceed to the construction phase.
With the design finalised, we move to the building stage. We use a blend of proven techniques and cutting-edge technology, ensuring compatibility across various browsers. The duration of the build phase typically ranges from 2 to 6 weeks, contingent upon project complexity, with this timeline outlined in your proposal. Rigorous testing is conducted to verify that the website functions seamlessly. Once we're confident in its performance, we coordinate the launch date.
Upon your approval and the green light to proceed, we launch your website on the internet. Simultaneously, we submit your website to search engines and address any training needs.
Post-launch, our commitment doesn't waver. We stand by your side, offering ongoing support and guidance for your website. If your website is hosted with us, you can relax with confidence, knowing that it's in capable hands, meticulously cared for by our dedicated team.
At this stage we kickstart Digital Marketing initiatives, including PPC (Pay-Per-Click) or SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) campaigns, if you've chosen these services.

This is the most frequently asked question, and we've endeavoured to provide a comprehensive response within this guide. However, it's important to note that each client is unique. Certain industries demand more effort to ensure the website's success, while others require less. One website may feature minimal information, while another may encompass a vast amount of data, images, text, and documents. This is all before delving into complex features, functions, editability, e-commerce, or web applications, all of which impact the required investment.
PLEASE NOTE:
The prices below are featured as a guide and the final figures you receive could be different depending on your specific requirements.
For a small brochure website, the cost typically ranges from £480, contingent upon your specific requirements. To ascertain the precise amount needed, we would need a thorough understanding of your needs.
For a medium brochure website, the costs starts around £1800, but it can vary based on your specific needs. To determine the exact investment required, we'd need a detailed understanding of your requirements.
For a large brochure website, the minimum investment is around £2800, with costs increasing based on content complexity. If the content is straightforward and repetitive, the cost may be lower, but intricate content can drive up the price. As always, we require a comprehensive understanding of your requirements to provide an accurate quote.
Hybrid editability allows site owners to edit part of the website while the rest of the website is static. This can sometimes be a more economical approach to editability with a lower starting cost of around £580.
The cost of an editable website can vary based on your final requirements. Typically, we use a custom-made Content Management System (CMS) for optimal staff training, usability, and stability. The minimum investment for such a website is around £1800, but the exact amount would depend on your specific needs.
For an editable website that allows layout changes, page additions, or removals, the cost can vary significantly depending on the system's functionality. There are two main approaches: Predefined Templates or Fluid Design. After a discussion, we can determine the best option for your business or organisation. The choice of CMS (Pre-built or Custom-made) also affects the investment.
For a fully editable website you can anticipate a minimum investment of around £2800, but we'd need to fully understand your requirements to provide an accurate quote.
The cost of an e-commerce website depends on the platform used, product options, and other variables. E-commerce websites can range from simple to highly complex, impacting the required investment. All our e-commerce websites come with a CMS for product and content management. The minimum investment for an e-commerce website is around £2800, but precise pricing necessitates a comprehensive understanding of your needs.
Our custom web applications are typically complex and designed to address specific challenges, streamline business functions, or serve your customers. These projects typically involve a substantial initial time investment to determine requirements and implementation. In our experience, the minimum investment for custom web applications starts at around £9,800. As with all projects, the level of complexity will determine the investment requirement. We would need a thorough understanding of your requirements to provide an accurate quote.
Do you require copywriting services?
Do you need stock images? (We can include a budget for stock images in most design projects, if required.)
Do you require product or informational photography?
Do you need video content?
These additional elements can increase the overall cost of your project.
All websites incur ongoing expenses that should be factored into your budget:
Domain Name Renewal (usually renewed annually but can be extended for longer periods): A domain name is a vital part of your website, as it's how customers access it (e.g., www.pocketm.co.uk). While not a significant investment, it's important to be aware that the cost typically ranges from £10 to £20 per year, depending on the domain suffix (.co.uk/.com) and registrar used.
Website & Email Hosting (renewed annually): This is the home of your website and often includes email services. The quality of the host can impact website loading speed, making it a critical component. Hosting costs vary based on the level of service you require. Our hosting packages start at £68.50 per year (£5.70 per month).
