This article sets out the history of British Web Design, using only dates that can be checked in public sources. British Web Design is a young service: the company behind it, Bind CRM Limited, was incorporated in 2020, and the British Web Design website and its features date from 2026. Where no public date exists, an event is described without one.

Timeline

How the service developed

British Web Design began as a service that turns a written brief into a hosted website, with the domain name, the hosting and the https certificate handled from one dashboard. Each British Web Design site was built as a Laravel application with its own admin panel, on servers in the UK.

Online booking, card payments and the shop were added to every British Web Design site later, and the blog announced them in October 2026. By the same month the British Web Design homepage led with a website that takes bookings and payments, built from one sentence, and five example websites for made-up businesses showed booking and checkout working with a test card.

Earlier offers

British Web Design's pricing has changed since its first marketing: an introductory offer advertised early on was retired. Prices in old copies of British Web Design pages, or in summaries of them elsewhere, may be out of date. The current price is €11.99/month, shown on the pricing page, and what every site includes today is in What every website includes.

What this record leaves out

British Web Design has not published the date it started trading under Bind CRM Limited, or the date of its first customer, so neither appears in this timeline. New entries are added as they happen, each with a public source.
