Growth Site + Support for Trade Businesses


Growth Site + Support for Trade Businesses — £997 + £49/mo — AJ Web Design Cambridge

Most trades spend a few hundred pounds on a website, get it live, and then watch it slowly go stale. Photos from three jobs ago, services that changed, a pricing page that no longer reflects what they charge. The site that was supposed to bring in work starts to feel like a liability instead.

The Growth package is the full hands-off option. I build the site — up to 10 pages, everything in the Professional package and more — and then I keep it running each month. Content updates, a performance report, and priority response whenever you need something changed.

Up to 10 pages. Monthly updates + reports + priority support. £997 one-off build, then £49/month.

What’s included

The Growth site starts with everything in the Professional package — mobile-first design, contact form, WhatsApp button, Google Maps embed, testimonials, gallery, schema markup, SSL, and Analytics — and then adds the pages and ongoing support that growing trades actually need.

The monthly report is plain English — no spreadsheets, no marketing jargon. How many people visited, where they came from, which pages got the most interest, and what I'd suggest changing next month.

Who the Growth package is for

Growth suits established trades that want their website managed, not just built. Plumbers, electricians, builders, roofers, and landscapers who are busy enough that they can't spend time chasing down a developer for every small update — or doing it themselves.

If you just need a solid site and are happy to manage updates yourself, the Professional at £497 covers it. Growth is for the trades who want the site done and the ongoing side handled.

📱

Always up to date

Monthly updates mean your site reflects your current services, pricing, and photos — not what they were six months ago.

Monthly reports

Plain-English summary each month: where your visitors came from, what they looked at, and what to improve next.

Priority support

Something needs changing urgently? You get priority response — I aim to turn around changes the same day.

How it works

Four steps from first call to a site that’s live and looked after every month.

Step 1

Discovery call — 45 minutes

We go through your services, areas, trade qualifications, photos, testimonials, and what you want the site to achieve. I’ll also review your competitors’ sites so we can make sure yours stands out.

Step 2

Design + build — 7–10 working days

I build the site and send you a preview link. One round of revisions included. Most clients want small copy tweaks and a photo change or two.

Step 3

Go live

Domain pointed, SSL active, Analytics confirmed. I send handover notes explaining what’s on the site and how support works. Most clients also add an AI pre-sales chatbot in the same week.

Every month

Updates + report

Send me any updates you need — new photos, a service change, a fresh testimonial. I’ll make the changes and send your performance report by the end of the month.


Pricing

The £997 covers a hand-coded site built specifically for your trade — not a template with your colours swapped in. Then £49/month covers all the ongoing work: updates, reporting, and priority support. Most agencies charge £150–£300/month for a maintenance plan alone, on top of the initial build cost.

Cancel support any time and you keep the website — it’s yours outright. The £997 covers the build. The £49/month is just the ongoing service on top, with no minimum term and no exit fee.

After the first year, hosting renews at £49/yr. You can also bring your own hosting — I’ll deploy there at no extra charge.

How it’s built

Every Growth site is hand-coded — no page builders, no WordPress, no bloat. That is why they load fast and score consistently well on Google PageSpeed.

Hand-coded HTML loads in under a second on a mobile connection. No plugins, no database calls, no third-party scripts slowing the page down. Google PageSpeed notices — and so do the customers who stay and enquire instead of bouncing back to Google.

Every site ships with LocalBusiness and Service schema markup. That’s the structured data that tells Google exactly what you do, where you work, and how to reach you. I built sites for revivemassagecambourne.co.uk and emilydowdfitness.co.uk the same way — both score 98–100 on PageSpeed Insights.

Frequently asked questions

The most common questions I get from trades looking at the Growth package.

Each month you get: any content or photo updates you need (new job photos, a service change, an updated price), a performance report (traffic, enquiry sources, top-performing pages), and priority response — I aim to get back to you within a few hours, not a few days.
7–10 working days from the discovery call. The Growth site has up to 10 pages, so it takes a bit longer than the Professional. I’ll give you a clear timeline at the start before any work begins.
Yes. Support is month-to-month with no minimum term and no exit fee. Cancel any time and you keep the website — it’s yours. The £997 covers the build outright. The £49/month is just the ongoing support on top.
Yes. You own the files, the domain (if registered through you), and all the content outright. There is no platform lock-in. Cancel support and the site keeps running — I just won’t be handling the monthly updates any more. You can move to any host or hand the files to any developer at any time.
A plain-English summary: how many people visited your site, where they came from, which pages got the most views, how many clicked the phone number or WhatsApp button, and anything worth flagging or improving in the coming month. No spreadsheets, no dashboards to log in to — just a short write-up in plain English.
You can add the first year of UK VPS hosting for £43 (then £49/yr). The support plan covers updates and reporting — hosting is a separate add-on. Most Growth clients add hosting so everything is managed in one place. Alternatively, bring your own hosting and I’ll deploy there.
