Is the £14.99 paying off the setup fee?
No. The setup fee is paid once, up front, and covers designing and building the site. The £14.99 is the genuine ongoing cost of hosting, your domain renewal, backups, security and any changes you want made. If you stop paying the monthly the site comes offline. It isn't a finance agreement.
Are there really no other charges?
For a standard fishery website, no. The only things that cost extra are the add-ons: booking systems, members portals, photography, drone work and advertising, and you'd have to specifically ask for those. If something you want falls outside the standard build, I'll tell you the price before I start it, not after.
What if I want ten pages instead of six?
That's fine, and for most fisheries it's still £250. I price on the fishery, not the page count. If you've got four lakes that each need their own page, a tackle shop, holiday lodges and a match calendar going out two seasons, that's just what your site needs.
Do you charge for updates?
Never for content. Prices, match dates, results, new photos, opening hours, a new set of rules. Send it over and it's done, included in the monthly. Rebuilding whole new sections or adding a booking system is different, and I'd quote that separately.
Can I pay the setup fee in instalments?
Yes. If the setup fee in one go is awkward at the wrong end of a season, say so and we'll split it. I'd rather you had the website working for you in March than wait until August.
What happens if I want to leave?
You give me a month's notice and that's it. The domain is registered in your name, so it's yours to take wherever you like. I'll hand over your content and images and help transfer the domain to your new provider. No hostage-taking.
Do you work outside the UK?
My focus is UK fisheries and fishing lakes, because that's where I know the market, the search terms and the way anglers behave. If you're outside the UK, get in touch anyway and I'll be straight with you about whether I'm the right fit.
