UK Web Design & Hosting

Let's Build a Website
You're Genuinely Proud Of

Most people come to us having been let down once already, or having put it off for years because it all sounded complicated. We build websites for small businesses across the UK, and every one starts from a blank page. Your domain, your hosting and your security certificate come with it, for one price agreed before we start. You see the whole site on a private address first, and it only goes live when you tell us you are happy.

How It Works

See Your Site Before It Goes Live

Buying a website usually means paying up front and hoping for the best, and most people arrive here having done exactly that once before. We work the other way round. A deposit of half books your place in the diary, and then the whole site is built on a private address for you to walk through in your own time, on your own phone, with nobody watching over your shoulder. The balance falls due once you have seen it and told us it is right, which for most projects is two to three weeks after we begin.

1
Submit Your Brief
Tell us what you do, who you sell to and what you want the site to do for you, and take as much space as you need to say it. The form takes a few minutes, anything you are unsure about we can talk through on the phone, and nothing is charged until you have decided to go ahead.
2
We Build Your Preview Site
We build the whole site on a private address that only you have, laid out around your business rather than dropped into a template that fifty other firms are already using. What you end up with belongs to you, and to nobody else in your trade.
3
You Review and Approve
Look through it on your own phone and your own laptop, show it to whoever you trust, and take as long as you need over it. Ask for changes to the wording, the photographs, the colours or the whole shape of a page, and we make them. Once you are happy, we register your domain in your name.
4
We Go Live
We move the site onto your own domain, set the hosting up on our UK servers and issue the certificate that puts the padlock in the browser bar, then check every page and every form on the real address before we tell you it is done. After that we are still here, for the small changes and the awkward questions alike.
What's Included

Everything in One Fixed Price

A website usually arrives as three separate bills from three separate companies, and the morning something breaks they each point politely at the other two while your site stays down. Everything listed below comes from us, in the price of the site, with one number to ring when you need it.

Custom Website Design
Your site is drawn up around your trade, your colours and the way people go about buying from you, starting from a blank page rather than a layout borrowed from somebody else. If you have a logo we work to it, and if you have never had one, we can help you sort that out too.
Preview Before You Go Live
The whole site is built on a private address first, so you see exactly what you are buying rather than a sketch of it, ask for the changes you want, and pay the balance only when it is right. Nothing at all goes public until you say the word.
Free SSL Certificate
The padlock your customers look for before they trust a contact form or type a card number into it. Every site we build has one from the day it goes live, and it renews itself quietly in the background, so it is never a bill or a reminder that lands on you.
Mobile Responsive
Most of your customers will meet your business on a phone, often standing in the street or sitting on a bus with one hand free. Every page is built for that first and then checked on tablets and desktop machines, so the words stay readable and the buttons stay easy to hit wherever it is opened.
UK Web Hosting
Your site lives on UK servers that are checked every day and backed up every night, with the copies kept somewhere other than the machine itself. The updates and the security patches are ours to worry about, which in practice means you never log into a server or think about one.
Domain and DNS Setup
We buy the domain in your name and set every record up properly, including the ones your email depends on, so nothing goes quiet during the changeover. The domain belongs to you rather than to us, and if you ever decide to move on, it goes with you.

Why trymysite.co.uk

Straightforward From Start to Finish

For a small business a website is real money, and most of the worry that comes with it is not about the design at all, it is about not knowing what you will end up with or what the final bill will say. Everything here is arranged to answer both of those before you commit to anything.

Preview Before You Go Live
You see the finished site before a single customer does, and the balance falls due once you are happy with it. If it misses the mark, putting it right is our problem rather than something you have already paid for.
All In One Service
Design, build, hosting, domain and security all arrive on one invoice from one place. You never have to explain a problem twice, once to a hosting company that blames the designer and again to a designer who blames the host.
£
Fixed Price
The price is agreed in writing before we start and it covers the whole build, from the first sketch to the day it goes live. If you decide you want something extra along the way we quote for it separately and you choose, so the final invoice holds nothing you have not already seen.
UK Based
We are based in the UK, the servers are in the UK, and the person you speak to is the person building your site. Questions get answered the same day by somebody who already knows your project, rather than by whoever happens to pick up a queue.
Our Work

Recent Projects

A few of the sites we have built lately, and every one of them followed the same route, built quietly on a private address, checked over by the owner until it was right, then launched on their own domain with the hosting and the certificate already in place.

AuroraCast Live Site
auroracast.co.uk
AuroraCast
A live aurora tracker for the UK, pulling in space weather data and telling you when there is a real chance of seeing the lights from where you are standing. It has an interactive sky map, alerts you can set for your own area, and a community feed where people report what they are seeing tonight.

Resin Love Creations Live Site
resinlovecreations.co.uk
Resin Love Creations
A handcrafted resin art shop and gallery, selling jewellery, home decor and gifts. Every piece is made and photographed by hand, so the site is built around the photography rather than a stock catalogue layout.

SquawkUK Live Site
squawkuk.trymysite.co.uk
SquawkUK
A live tracker for UK military aircraft, built as a free alternative to the paid services. It reads a public feed unfiltered for military traffic and watches the places worth watching, from the Mach Loop to the RAF bases and the airshow circuit.
