Simple Business Websites was an idea from a member of our team. 

Our "Web Devs" are hugely experienced and are busy building large websites for national companies and international brands. 

Through 'word of mouth' recommendation and being found on the internet, we get lots of enquiries from 'start-up businesses' and local trades that want a simple and low-cost (cheap) website.

These projects would be too small for our 'web devs' or if they did the project, too expensive for the customer.

A member of our team asked "how can we help these local businesses, start-up's and trades get a website from a company they can trust?"

Simple Business Websites was born.

It wasn't many years ago that our company was a start-up company looking to get as much exposure as possible for as small a cost as possible. We understand the problem you have.

Or, perhaps your are a Tradesperson who has plenty of work, however you realise that a website reassures customers that you are a professional business. Also, you could always do with a few more enquiries that a website can provide.

We want to help.

We use a templated format so we can quickly build you a professional looking website. As our "Web Devs" can build them quickly (typically 7 to 10 days from when we get your information) we can offer these websites for a low-cost that is affordable.

We also take the headache out of getting a domain name (website address) and hosting of your website. The first year of both are included in the cost of the website build.
