Website pricing and packages

Compare managed website packages with monthly or upfront build pricing, optional care and clear ownership.

Choose a monthly build term when you want to spread the website cost across the first year, or pay upfront for the build and decide separately whether you want ongoing care.

The monthly option combines the website build and care during the first 12 months. The upfront option pays for the website build immediately, then lets you choose whether to retain Developmental for hosting, maintenance and support.

Build cost and care cost are separate.

The website build is the cost of designing, developing and launching the completed site. Care is the ongoing hosting, maintenance and practical support that keeps the site looked after after launch.

Care is included during the first-year monthly build term. After an upfront build, care is optional.

Ownership and handover.

You own the completed website and your domain once the website build has been paid for. If the engagement ends, the website, domain and relevant accounts can be handed over or cancelled as appropriate.

If you cancel during the first 12 months.

If you cancel during the initial 12-month build term, payments already made are not refunded and the remaining unpaid website build balance becomes due. You will not be charged for future care or maintenance after the service ends.

If you decline care after an upfront build.

If you pay upfront and do not retain a care plan, the website and relevant accounts can be handed over and you become responsible for hosting, maintenance, updates and continuing support.

Need something extra?

Logo design, brand kits, business email setup, domain support, extra pages, booking forms, payment links, quote calculators, e-commerce and other custom features can be added if needed.

Need more than a website?

I also build custom web apps and business tools, including staff portals, secure user accounts, dashboards, digital paperwork systems, booking flows and admin tools. Custom features and web apps are scoped individually depending on what you need.

Questions.

What is the difference between monthly and upfront?

The monthly option combines the website build and care during the first 12 months. The upfront option pays for the website build immediately, then lets you choose whether to retain Developmental for hosting, maintenance and support.

What does the first-year monthly price include?

The first-year monthly price includes website design, website development, hosting, maintenance, practical support and the applicable care services for the package.

Do I own the website?

Yes. You own the completed website and your domain once the website build has been paid for.

Is care required after an upfront build?

No. Care is optional after an upfront build. If you do not retain a care plan, the website and relevant accounts can be handed over and you become responsible for hosting, maintenance, updates and continuing support.

What happens if I cancel during the first 12 months?

If you cancel during the initial 12-month build term, payments already made are not refunded and the remaining unpaid website build balance becomes due. You will not be charged for future care or maintenance after the service ends.

What happens after the first 12 months?

After the initial build term, you own the completed website and can continue with optional ongoing care at £39 per month for either Starter or Growth.

Can the website and domain be handed over?

Yes. Your domain belongs to you, and the completed website plus relevant accounts can be handed over when the build has been paid for and the engagement ends.

Are custom apps included in these packages?

No. Custom applications, portals, dashboards and complex functionality are quoted separately because the work depends on users, data, payments, admin features and ongoing support.
