Every British Web Design website includes the build, the hosting, its own admin panel and changes on request for one monthly price per website, with no setup fee. A brochure site with only a contact form costs the same as a site that takes bookings and payments. This article lists what is included, what costs extra and what is not offered.
The price
A British Web Design website costs €11.99/month. The price is per website, so an owner with two websites pays for two. There is no setup fee, no contract and no hourly rate for changes.
What is included
| Included | What it means |
|---|---|
| Pages and copy | Written for the business from its brief, with the pages chosen to suit it. Reviews are only quoted word for word from the business's own listings, credited, never invented. |
| Photographs | The owner's own first, then pictures from an existing website, then credited stock photographs from Unsplash and Pixabay. |
| A logo | The owner's own, or rounds of six logo designs to choose from on the dashboard. |
| Contact form | Messages go to the owner's inbox and are also kept in the admin panel. Spam protection included. |
| Online booking | Services, staff, opening hours and a booking calendar, with deposits if wanted. See Online booking and deposits. |
| Card payments and a shop | Card, Apple Pay and Google Pay into the owner's own Stripe account, and a small shop. See Card payments and online shops. |
| A blog | Its first four posts written for the business, unless a blog makes no sense for it. |
| Menus | Header and footer menus the owner can change, with dropdowns and mega menus. |
| PDF menus and price lists | Turned into pages item by item, with the PDF offered as a download. |
| Videos and galleries | Videos of up to 500 MB uploaded from the admin panel, and galleries that enlarge when tapped. |

| Hosting, https and backups | UK servers in London and Manchester, certificates issued and renewed automatically, and backups of the live database. See Hosting, security and backups. |
| A staging copy | A private copy of the site where every change is tried first. |
| Its own admin panel | Laravel Nova, for the words, pictures, opening hours, bookings, products and enquiries. |
| Changes and support | Ordinary changes asked for in plain English, and email and live chat answered by a person in Yorkshire. |
| Domain connection | A domain the owner already has, connected, with the records shown and checked. |
What costs extra
| Costs extra | How it is charged |
|---|---|
| Registering a new domain name | The cost price of the name plus a handling charge, paid once a year and shown in pounds before buying. See Domain names. |
| Stripe's card fees | Stripe takes its standard fees from each card payment. British Web Design adds no booking or payment fee of its own. |
| Another website | Each website is billed separately at €11.99/month. |
| Very large pieces of work | British Web Design talks to the owner first about anything genuinely large. Ordinary changes stay included. |
What is not offered
- A large online shop. The shop suits a small business selling a few dozen products with options, not thousands of products kept in step with a stock system.
- Recurring payments. Memberships, subscriptions and class passes cannot be sold through a British Web Design site.
- A drag-and-drop editor or plugins. British Web Design sites are Laravel applications, edited through forms in their admin panel, not WordPress or a page builder.
- The owner's own domain during the trial. During the free trial the site stays on its staging address.
