Is it safe to pay for a sprint upfront? Payment is by bank transfer or Stripe invoice, in full, before the sprint starts. The refund guarantee is the safety mechanism: not live on the agreed day, 100% back within 48 hours. No deposits, no milestone gating, no small print.
What does "from £1,000" mean? £1,000 is one sprint, which covers a bespoke site of up to about seven pages. If your site needs more, it needs more than a week, and I quote it as a fixed number of sprints on the discovery call. You always know the total before you pay.
Are there any monthly fees on a website? None to me. On a custom build hosting is free on the plan I set you up on. On a Webflow build you pay Webflow for the site plan directly, from $15 a month billed yearly, in US dollars plus tax. The domain is yours, paid to your registrar, about £10 to £15 a year. If you want changes made each month after launch, that is £99 a month, and it is optional.
What does "from £500 a month" mean for SEO and GEO? £500 covers the full programme for a small site in an ordinary market: the content pages, a modest link budget, the technical upkeep, the AI-visibility layer and the report. A bigger site or a crowded market needs more pages and more links each month, so the month costs more. I scope it on the call and write the figure down before it starts.
Can I stop the SEO and GEO work? Yes, at the end of any month, by email. It is billed monthly in advance and there is no minimum term.
What does the £500 AI set-up include? Your source of truth written with you, your LLM of choice configured with it, the skills and prompts for the jobs you repeat, the automations that fit, a one-page way of working and a handover call. One flat fee, paid before we start. Anything bigger built afterwards, a lead-handling system or a CRM wired in, is scoped as sprints with the number in writing first.
Do you charge VAT? Not currently. I am a UK sole trader below the VAT threshold, so the prices on this page are the prices you pay.
