Website Lease for Businesses in Abingdon and Beyond.
Low Cost Website Lease for Business in Abingdon
Buying a website is an excellent option for many businesses in Abingdon and elsewhere. It's how we've built our own business. However, affordability is one of the biggest problems small and medium-sized B2B companies face when they want to build a new website or develop their exsiting site.
Having their own website creator build or redesign their site is something that not many businesses can afford. When businesses see how much it costs to build or rebuild a website, they usually just put it off.
This is where our monthly website Lease comes in. It's aimed at small to mid-sized businesses who don't have the need or the budget for a full-time web developer.
How Much Will a Website Lease Deal Cost?
Of course, the answer is, it depends! We've tried to make it simple although it's not always a simple answer as it depends on hosting, whether you sell products through it, and blogs writing.
So we've tried to come up with a simple guide to give you a good idea of the cost. Use the cost per-page as a multiplier.
Per-Page Cost (brochure type-website)
Per-month (ex-vat)- Deposit is equal to 3 month's lease (min £300+vat charge)
- Includes WordPress database updates
- Theme updates
- Plugin updates
- SSL certificate included
- Basic hosting included including monthly back-ups
- Optional: Weekly backups + £10pm +vat p/m*
- Optional: Daily backups +£20+pm +vat p/m*
- Real time backups +£30pm +vat p/m*
- Website size up to 1GB space + £0
- Each additional GB = £30 +vat p/m
Per-Page Cost (e-commerce type-website)
Per-month (ex-vat)- Deposit is equal to 3 month's lease (min £300+vat charge)
- Includes WordPress database updates
- Theme updates
- Plugin updates
- SSL certificate included
- Basic hosting included including monthly back-ups
- Optional: Weekly backups + £20pm +vat p/m*
- Optional: Daily backups +£30+pm +vat p/m*
- Real time backups +£40pm +vat p/m*
- Website size up to 1GB space + £0
- Each additional GB = £30 +vat p/m
Example 1: If your basic brochure website is 10 pages, you pay a £300+vat deposit. Once the site is live, you pay £100 +vat per-month for a minimum of 2 years.
Example 2: You run an e-commerce site with 5 pages and sell 30 products. The 5 pages (ie Home, About, Contact etc) would be £50+vat p/m and the 30 products would be £60. So the monthly cost would be £110+vat per-month. If you wanted real-time backups (£40+vat per-month), would be in total £150+vat per-month.
FAQs
What's included?
The offer is for a website lease deal built on WordPress.
How is it paid for?
It's paid via direct debit which we will send you the link for once you've read the terms and conditions. The first payment will come out once the site has been built and you're happy with it. The site will go live once the first payment has been paid for.
The website development starts once the deposit is made.
Is there a contract?
Yes. Because of the low price, and to make this offer work for both parties, the contract is for 2 years from when the first payment is made.
Do I own the website after 2 years?
You don't. You're in effect leasing a website from us. It's the same as if you were leasing a car or renting a house. That's how we're able to keep the cost so low. However, after 2 years, you can have a revamp of the site look and style if you so wished. If that's what you wish to do, you start another 2 year lease. If you're happy with the site, then after 2 years you're simply on a month to month contract (via the same direct debit so you don't need to do anything). If at any point you don't need the website anymore, you just need to give us a month's notice and we'll wrap everything up, no questions asked.
What happens if I already have a website?
As you've already paid for a website, we can still work on the site in the same way but you're simply on a rolling month-to-month contract as opposed to a 2-year contract via the same direct debit.
What about getting found on Google?
Within the website build, all pages will have proper SEO-friendly page titles, meta descriptions, and header 1 tags (an H1 tag tells Google what that page is all about). Just tell us what you wish to be found for. Remember SEO, is an ongoing task. See our SEO page if you want to know more.
Do you give any ranking guarantees for Google ranking?
No and Google even says you cannot say that to any client. If someone says they can, they're either lying, getting you ranked for a search term no one uses (called a vanity ranking - but it'll never result in any enquiries for you), or they're trying to scam the ranking system. Once Google realises you're trying to scam it, it will derank your site or even backlist it.
Can I change the wording on the site and images if I wanted to?
Yes. You'll be given access to your site to enable you to do just that.
Will my site work on mobile and tablet?
Absolutely. The site will be built on the same plaform we use.
Do I need to provide you with photos and wording?
It would help but if you just don't have anything, we can do it on your behalf as part of the build at no extra charge.
What if I wanted more pages?
No problem. Each additional page is £100+vat as a one-off charge and the monthly payments are adjusted accordingly.
NOTE: You can design and add your own pages to avoid the one-off design charge, and we just adjust the monthly direct debit payment.
Can I have an e-commerce shop site to sell products on?
Yes. The integration of the payment system and the inital shop set up would cost an extra £150 set-up fee. We'll also include a 'how-to' video to show how you add your items.
Can I have a reservation system for a restaurant?
Yes. But we would integrate it with a third-party booking system that you would pay separately for directly to them. There would be a £150 one-off set up fee.
What about hosting of the site and the secure padlock?
That's all part of the monthly charge. Your site will be on our dedicated UK-based server.
Will the cost increase?
Not at all. As long as you're a continous customer the prices will remain the same. It's only if you have a break then come back later and if the prices have increased. But the prices won't increase at all if you have leased a site without a payment break.
Apart from the monthly fee, are there any other costs?
None whatsoever. We've tried to make it as transparent as possible. Bear in mind that all costs are subject to VAT.
