Websites for service businesses that turn browsers into bookings.

There are no published package prices, because every service business needs a slightly different mix. It starts with a free audit so you see where you stand at no cost. If you want the full picture, the £300 deep-dive gives you a consultation, a written audit and a fixed quote, and the £300 is credited against your build. The build itself is quoted to your brief, then website management runs from £49 a month, quoted to your business, and services may vary. One bill, no lock-in, cancel any time.

A contact form asks someone to type out their request, then wait for a reply, and the moment they were ready to commit passes. A booking button lets them pick a service and a slot there and then, while the intent is still hot. Forms have their place for open-ended questions, but for anything you would put in a diary, a booking that confirms itself beats an enquiry that sits in your inbox. We keep a form for genuine enquiries and put booking front and centre for everything else.

Yes. This page is deliberately for the wider service world: consultants, studios, clinics, coaches, bookkeepers, therapists, trainers and appointment-led firms of every kind. If you sell your time in slots, the same booking-first approach applies, whether the slot is a fifteen-minute call or a half-day engagement. If you are specifically a barbershop, the barbers page goes deeper on that trade, and salons, gyms and studios have the beauty and fitness page. The build itself is written around your business either way, with the service pages, the booking rules and the deposits set to how you actually work.

You can run both, but the difference matters. On a marketplace, the booking is on their terms, they take a fee on the clients they send you, and they own the client details, so they can market a rival firm to the people you serve. On your own site, the booking, the deposit and the client list are entirely yours. Many service businesses keep a marketplace for discovery and push repeat clients to their own site, where there is no cut and no rival marketing.

The website itself does not. What cuts no-shows is a card-on-file deposit or a clear same-day cancellation rule, and a reminder before every appointment. Those are built into the booking on your own site from day one. A deposit is the single biggest lever there is, because a slot someone has paid to hold is a slot they turn up for. You set the deposit and the cancellation window to whatever suits your service.

Yes. The booking lands in your calendar and inbox the same second it is made, and syncs to the device you actually look at, so you are not re-keying appointments or risking a double-booking. Blocked-out time you add yourself shows as unavailable to bookers, so a slot cannot be taken while you are already busy. The whole point is that you carry on using one diary, and the site keeps it filled, rather than adding another app to check between clients.

Google ranks local results on relevance, distance and prominence, and we work all three: your Google Business Profile fully completed with the right primary category, consistent name, address and phone everywhere, steady reviews you reply to, and a fast mobile site with a real location page. For most service businesses, the free Business Profile sends as many enquiries as the site itself, so the two are set up to work together.

Yes. You decide the rule per service. A lot of firms protect their longer or higher-value appointments with a deposit and leave shorter, lower-risk ones open with no hold. The booking form enforces whatever you set, so the policy is clear at the point of booking and there is no awkward dispute later.

It does not replace the phone, it takes the pressure off it. The people who are happy to book online do it themselves at 9pm without ringing you, which is most of them, and the phone is left free for the clients who genuinely want to talk. Your number stays on every page, so nobody is forced through a screen who would rather not be. You end up with fewer missed calls and fewer messages to return, not a call centre feel.

No, that is your call and it depends on your service. Some firms show a clear price per service because it filters out the wrong enquiries and speeds up the decision. Others price on the brief and use the booking for a paid consultation or a discovery call instead, with the fee taken as the deposit. We write the service pages and set the booking up around whichever suits how you actually sell, so the page does the qualifying for you either way.

Most sites are live within a week or two of the brief being agreed. Builds with bookings, deposits and reminder automation take a little longer to wire up, but you will see a private preview early and it goes live the moment you are happy with it. You do not wait months.

Cancel any time, one click. There is no lock-in. The running plan ends at the end of the month you have already paid for. You own your code and your domain is registered in your name, so you walk away with everything, including your client list.
