A proper website. Someone to keep it that way.
We build websites for local businesses, from trades and salons to cafés and shops, then keep them up to date with ongoing monthly care. Two people you can speak to, from the first chat to the next change.
A small team, close to home.
Sites Proper is the two of us: one builds your website, the other talks you through it. We work with businesses in our own area, so you'll know who you're dealing with, and who to come back to.
How it works.
Four steps, start to finish. No jargon in between.
Get in touch
Tell us about your business, by call or message. No pressure, no jargon.
Agree the details
We confirm exactly what's included and the price, before anything starts.
Built in 48 hours
Weekends included. You'll know exactly when to expect it.
Ongoing care
Pick a plan that fits, or none at all. Either way, you're not on your own.
48 hours means 48 hours. Weekends included.
The clock starts once your deposit is paid and you've sent your content, or told us to use your existing public business information. We'll agree what's included before we start, so you know exactly what's coming.
What lands in 48 hours is ready for your review, a real, working site, not a locked-off final version. You get a round of changes after that to get it right.
Your website shouldn't become another job.
A new price list. Different opening hours. A service you've just added. Your business changes, and your website needs to keep up.
Our monthly care plans cover hosting, your domain and an allowance for updates, with extra local search support on selected plans. When something needs changing, you've got someone to ask. We'll help you choose a plan that fits what you actually need.
"We're opening Saturdays from next month. Can you update our hours?"
That's exactly what your care plan is for. Send us the details and we'll update your site within your plan's allowance.
Simple pricing, no surprises.
Pick your build and a care plan, see exactly what it comes to. No form, no waiting on a callback.
Not sure which? Most single-service businesses, like a salon or a cafe, only need one page. Multiple services, locations or a menu usually want multi-page.
A few things people ask.
What if I don't have photos or written content?
We'll build using your existing public business information, like your Google or Facebook listing, if you don't have anything ready to send. You can always add your own content and photos afterwards.
What exactly will be ready within 48 hours?
A working version of your site, ready for you to look at and ask for changes. Not a final, locked-off version, that comes after your round of revisions.
Can I keep my existing domain?
Yes. We can point an existing domain at your new site, or help you register one if you don't have one yet.
What happens if I cancel my care plan?
Your site stays live for 14 days after a missed payment, giving you time to sort things out. After that, we can provide a static export of your site for a small one-off fee if you want to move it elsewhere.
Let's get your website sorted.
Starting from scratch or replacing something that's seen better days? Tell us about your business. We'll explain what we'd suggest, what it costs and how we'll look after it.
