Bespoke websites for accountants who want a site that books a call, not one that lists every service.

Most accountancy sites read like a Companies House filing — dense, dutiful, and nobody reads past the homepage.

1 Week Sites builds bespoke Next.js websites for UK ACCA, ACA, CIMA, and AAT-registered accountancy practices — £1,000 flat, paid upfront, live in seven days, with a full refund within 48 hours if I miss day seven. Most practices I meet are paying £40–£120 a month to Practice Web, MyFirmsApp, or similar sector-specific platforms for a templated site that looks like every other firm on the same platform. A bespoke build gives you a properly-branded, fast-loading site that books discovery calls, ranks for your chosen service-plus-town combinations (e.g. 'bookkeeping Liverpool'), and stays entirely on infrastructure you own. Over five years the total sits around £1,300 — £1,000 build plus roughly £60 a year for domain and email. You own the code, the hosting, and the client-facing brand. Seven days from brief to live, one revision round, no retainer.

What an accountancy-site visitor actually wants

The visitor is usually either a limited company director with a filing deadline pressing, a sole trader considering incorporation, or a business owner unhappy with their current accountant. They want to know three things: whether you handle their exact set-up (self-assessment, Ltd, VAT, payroll, R&D), what the monthly fee looks like for a practice of their size, and how quickly you can onboard. They do not want a services menu with thirty line items, a stock image of a handshake, or a six-paragraph history of the firm. They want pricing bands ('from £75/mo for a Ltd under £100k turnover'), a named partner with a photo, a clear 'book an intro call' button, and evidence you use modern tools (Xero Certified Advisor, QuickBooks ProAdvisor, FreeAgent Practice Partner).

What most accountancy sites get wrong

  • Thirty-item services menu instead of three packages with indicative pricing.
  • No named partner or senior accountant on the homepage — trust evaporates.
  • Stock 'accountant with calculator' photography — every firm has the same image.
  • Xero / QuickBooks / FreeAgent partner status buried in the footer.
  • Contact form as the only CTA, routed to a practice management system no one checks.
  • Sector-specific platform lock-in (Practice Web, MyFirmsApp) — you never own it.

What a good accountancy brief includes

Four things locked on Monday ship the week. One, three packages or price bands — monthly fee, what is included, who it suits ('sole trader', 'Ltd under £250k', 'VAT + payroll'). Two, a named partner bio with recent photo and qualification letters. Three, the cloud platforms you are a partner for (Xero, QuickBooks, FreeAgent, Dext) — these are ranking and trust signals. Four, how you want intros to land: phone, email, Calendly, or a short questionnaire. The brief template on the resources page handles the rest.

The seven-day week

Same week, same shape, whoever you are. Brief Monday, design Tuesday, build Wednesday to Friday, revisions Saturday, launch Sunday. One site a week, one client at a time.

  • Monday — sixty-minute video-call brief, scope and copy locked.
  • Tuesday — design in Figma, one route shown to sign-off.
  • Wednesday–Friday — build in Next.js, Tailwind, TypeScript.
  • Saturday — one round of revisions, real copy and imagery.
  • Sunday — launch to your Vercel, DNS on your registrar, full handover.

Accountants-specific questions

Can you publish fixed-fee packages without underselling?

Yes — and it usually wins more discovery calls than hiding fees. Copy matters: 'from £125/mo for a Ltd under £250k turnover, annual accounts and corporation tax included' filters out wrong-fit enquiries and pulls serious ones in. I handle the framing.

Will the site integrate with practice-management tools?

Simple forms yes — Karbon, Senta, Canopy intake forms can be embedded or replaced with a lightweight custom form that webhooks into your existing workflow. The site stays fast; the tool stays.

Can I show Xero / QuickBooks / FreeAgent partner status?

Yes, prominently. Badge images are hosted on your own domain (not hotlinked) so Core Web Vitals do not suffer, with a small trust row above the fold. Partner status is a real ranking signal — it belongs high on the homepage.

Common questions

Is £1,000 really all-in, or do I pay extra later?

£1,000 is all-in for a five-to-seven-page bespoke marketing site: brief, design, build, one revision round, launch. No monthly fee, no retainer, no kill fee. You pay for your own domain (≈£12/year) and email hosting (≈£4/month). Nothing goes through me.

What happens if you miss day seven?

Full refund within 48 hours, no arguments. I take the loss — that's what keeps the deadline real. It has not happened yet and the guarantee is what stops it happening.

Who owns the finished site?

You do, fully. The code lives in a GitHub repo transferred to your account. The Vercel hosting project is on your Vercel account. The domain is on your registrar. You can hire any Next.js developer to take it forward — nothing is locked to me.
