A website that works,built properly.
I build simple, effective websites for small businesses and tradespeople — no agency circus, no upsells, just a site that does its job. Done by me, in 3–5 days.
Flat build cost
£100one-off, no extras- Home page, contact form & thank-you page
- Privacy & cookie policy included
- Copy written by me, from a chat about your business
- Hosting from £10/month, or £100/year
Straightforward, and that's it
One flat price to build, one honest monthly cost to host. No packages, no tiers, no "premium add-ons" — just a site that works.
The build
A flat £100, one-off. No hourly billing, no surprise invoices halfway through.
- Home page, contact form & thank-you page as standard
- Privacy policy & cookie policy included
- Extra pages available, priced individually
The hosting
£10 a month, or £100 a year. Hand-built HTML, so it loads fast and there's nothing to keep patching.
- No WordPress, no page-builder overhead
- Domain name registered for you if needed
- One point of contact if anything needs changing
The timeline
3–5 business days from our chat to a live site. Long enough to get it right, short enough that you're not left waiting.
- I write the copy, based on a conversation with you
- No images used unless you supply your own
- No ecommerce or directory-style sites — simple business sites, done well
A few examples
Every site is built from scratch around the business it's for — here's a look at a few.
Finance & payments
Well Good Payments
A sharper, more corporate example — built to feel credible and trustworthy for a business in payments and finance.
Trades & local services
CW Home Cleaning
Reliable residential cleaning by Chelsey Wells — regular cleans, deep cleans and end of tenancy cleans, booked straight from the site.

JW Business Websites
You're looking at it. Proof that a flat-fee, one-person build can still look sharp and load fast.
Just me — Jake
"I got tired of watching small businesses get quoted thousands for a website they didn't need — so I built a simpler way to do it."
I'm Jake, and I build every site myself — no team, no account managers, no handoffs. When you get in touch, you're talking directly to the person who'll actually build your site.
Most of my clients are tradespeople and small local businesses who know they need a website but don't have the time, budget, or patience for an agency. I write the copy, build the pages, and hand over something that just works — done properly, without the agency circus.
No agency circus
01
One flat price
£100 to build, £10 a month to host. No packages, no tiers, no add-ons to upsell you on later.
02
Fast turnaround
3–5 business days from our first chat to a live site. Quick enough that your momentum doesn't fade.
03
You talk to me
No ticket queues, no account managers. Every message and every build goes through me directly.
04
Hand-built, not bloated
Real HTML, not a page-builder with a hundred scripts you don't need. It's why the sites load fast.
Good to know
Still deciding?
Here are the questions I get asked most. If yours isn't here, just ask directly — I'll get back to you the same day, usually.
Want a straight answer about your specific business?
No — I don't build ecommerce or listing/directory-style sites. I stick to simple, effective business sites, and I'd rather be honest about that than stretch into something I don't do well.
That's no problem — extra pages are available, priced individually, on top of the flat £100 for a standard build. Just tell me what you need when we chat.
No. We'll talk through your business and what you offer, and I'll write it from there. You don't need to be a writer, and you don't need to be technical either.
I don't add generic stock photography by default. If you've got your own photos, I'll use them — if not, we'll talk about what makes sense for your site.
£10 a month, or £100 a year. Sites are hand-built HTML rather than WordPress, so I host them myself — that's part of why they're fast and simple, not a limitation.
