Who It Suits

Built For Small Business Owners

Local Trades

Builders, plumbers, electricians, and other tradespeople — sole traders and SMEs alike — who need a custom-designed website that generates local enquiries and lead generation without a large upfront cost.

Service Businesses

Cleaners, childminders, consultants, and service providers that want a professional online presence with enquiry forms, call-to-action buttons, and a contact page designed to convert visitors into customers.

Startups

New businesses and start-ups that need a hassle-free website ready quickly — usually in as little as 7 days after design approval — without committing to a large fee before seeing any results.

Sole Traders

Self-employed professionals who want to look credible online without the overheads of an expensive bespoke website build.

Shops & Local Businesses

Physical shops and local businesses that want to be found online with local SEO, a Google Business Profile, and a landing page or portfolio that gives customers a clear place to learn more, view your work, and improve your conversion rate.

Growing Small Companies

SMEs already trading that want a better website to support growth — with Google Analytics, website maintenance, and conversion-focused design — without tying up capital in a large upfront agency bill.

The Problem We Solve

A Simple Website Solution For Small Businesses

Many small businesses delay getting a website because of the same reasons. High upfront costs that need to be paid before seeing any work. Confusing technical decisions about hosting, domain names, and platforms. Long contracts that lock them in for a year or more. DIY website builders and self-build platforms promise an easy route online, but they take time to learn, often look generic, and rarely deliver the responsive design and custom design quality that helps a small business stand out and attract customers.

Pay Monthly Websites makes getting online straightforward and hassle-free. We design a custom, conversion-focused website first at no charge — complete with a home page, service pages, contact page, enquiry forms, and call-to-action buttons — so you can see exactly what your business will look like before agreeing to anything. If you are happy with the design, you choose a simple monthly plan and the website goes live. If you are not happy, you walk away without paying a penny.

Every small business website is built with on-page SEO, technical SEO, and local SEO, aligned with your Google Business Profile to improve local search visibility. It is served over HTTPS with a GDPR-compliant cookie banner, accessibility baked in, and site speed optimised for Core Web Vitals. Google Analytics can be set up from day one so you can track lead generation, conversion rate, and the ROI your website delivers. Website maintenance is included, and there is no CMS for you to manage — we handle it all as part of the all-in-one service.
