Services · Website build and Tune-Up
A website that gives the work somewhere to land
Service and town pages need a site to live on. Two options, both done for you: a new three-page site on your own domain, or a Tune-Up of the site you already have.
What we do, and what we will not
You do not need a new website to start the plan. If yours works and we can edit it, we write onto it. These two options are for sites that are missing, or that are not pulling their weight.
We do
- Build a landing page, an about page and a services page on your own domain
- Write them around the searches your scan or audit measured
- Add a contact form that emails you, and click-to-call on phones
- Or tune up to 10 of your existing pages: titles, headings, wording and internal links
- Fix the conversion basics: a clear next step on every page, a form that reaches you
- Walk you through every change in a recording
We will not
- Put your site on a platform you cannot leave
- Own your domain. You buy it, and it stays yours
- Build 40 near-identical town pages
- Promise that a new site will rank
- Count the Tune-Up against your plan. It is a separate one-off job
How it goes
-
First
Scan or audit
The pages are written around searches we have measured for your business.
-
Then
Your facts
Services, towns, licences, photos. You describe it once; that is the brief.
-
Then
Draft and revise
A first draft, then revision rounds. A round is everything you ask for in one go.
-
Live
On your domain
Published, logged in your dashboard, ready for service and town pages.
What you see in your dashboard
Every page built or tuned appears under Work done, with a link to the live page. Once the site is up, service-area pages have somewhere to go.
- Day 3Domain connected, in your name
- Day 10First draft: home, about, services
- Day 14Revision round one done
- Day 16Site live, contact form tested
The two options
Both are one-off jobs, bought after a scan or an audit, so they are built around your measured searches. Prices appear here when they are offered.

Questions about website build and tune-up
Do I need a new website to start the plan?
No. If your site works and we can edit it, we write the pages onto it. The build is for businesses with no site, or one that cannot be edited.
Who owns the domain and the site?
You do. You buy the domain in your own name, and the site is built on it, never on one we own.
What counts as a revision round?
Everything you ask for in one go after a draft is one round. A single small change on its own is not a round. What you tell us before the first draft is the brief, not a revision.
Is the Tune-Up credited to the plan?
No. The audit fee is credited to your first month if you start the plan. The Tune-Up is a separate one-off job and is not.
Will a new site make me rank?
A site on its own ranks nothing. It gives the profile a good page to link to and gives service and town pages somewhere to live. The weekly map shows what the whole plan does.
