Websites that look grown up and behave themselves
You get a site that looks professional, is easy to navigate, and sits on top of a clean domain, email, and security setup. No bloated themes, no mystery plugins, no agency hand offs.
Cloudflare and monitoring are added where they make sense. If your risk is low, we keep it simple. If you attract attention, we plan for that too.
Real monitoring on real sites
This is not a theoretical security package. I already monitor and document traffic on live projects, including unwelcome curiosity from organisations that should know better.
Example in public
On The Reasonable Adjustment I published a write up of a traffic spike from a professional body, showing what they looked at, when they did it, and how I knew.
Why that matters for you
If we decide monitoring is appropriate for your site, I reuse the same pattern:
- simple tripwires for sensitive pages
- alerts when someone prods or scans
- plain English notes so you can explain it to others
You keep control of your data. I help you decide what to log and how long to keep it.
What you actually get from a build
A site that does the basics well
Clear structure, readable copy, mobile friendly layouts, and routes that make sense for your users. Built lean so it loads quickly and does not break every time you update content.
Your branding or the Ki-Ki / TRA style, depending on what you prefer.
Sorted domain and email
Domain ownership checked, DNS cleaned up, and email accounts set up on your own domain. Staff are not forced to use personal addresses when talking to customers or funders.
Protection that matches your risk
For many small sites this is a sensible set of basics. For higher risk or more visible work we add Cloudflare, tailored rules, and monitoring so you can see what is happening at the edge.
Good fit
- SMEs that want to look credible when people search for them
- Charities and projects that need to show care to trustees or funders
- Campaign sites that attract attention or quiet monitoring
- Solo operators who want written evidence if there is a dispute later
If you just want a £50 theme dropped online with no thought for email, backups, or security, this is not the right service.
Guideline packages
These are ballpark figures so you have a sense of scale. Final costs depend on page count, content writing, risk level, and whether you want ongoing care or a one off handover. Everything is agreed in writing first.
Starter presence
For small sites, pilots, and first serious web presence.
- Up to 5 pages
- Clean layout and copy polish
- Domain and email aligned
- Basic privacy and cookie guidance
Around £350 build
ongoing care optional
Web plus protection
For SMEs that want the site and the foundations looked after.
- Up to 10 pages
- Full domain and email tidy
- Cloudflare introduced or improved where helpful
- Sensible firewall rules and checks
- Optional simple alerts for odd traffic
Around £600 build
plus from around £80 to £120 per month for care and monitoring
Higher attention projects
For organisations that expect scrutiny, scraping, or repeated visits from particular sectors.
- Larger sites or multiple sections
- Documented risk and response notes
- Custom edge rules and tripwires
- Log shipping options for your own storage
- Priority tweaks as patterns change
From around £1,000 build
plus from around £150 per month
Food banks and community organisations can ask for a reduced rate or a scaled down version that fits their budget.
How a build runs from start to finish
Business site, charity site, campaign page, or something more sensitive. We keep the language normal and focus on what it needs to do.
Domain, email, current site, hosting, and any security tools. You get a short written summary of where things stand before we touch anything.
I build the site, connect the domain and email, and, if we are using Cloudflare, tune it to match your risk. You review pages before launch.
Either I hand everything over neatly, or we agree a simple monthly arrangement where I keep an eye on things, make tweaks, and send short updates.
Common questions
-
Do you only build static sites
No. Static sites are fast and low maintenance, but if you need WordPress or another platform we can use it and still keep things as simple and secure as possible.
-
Do you host the site
I can arrange hosting or help you pick a provider. I prefer simple hosting with clear billing rather than complex bundled packages.
-
Do I have to use Cloudflare
No. It is a useful tool, not a religion. If it suits your size and risk we use it. If it does not, we focus on getting the basics right first.
-
Can we get a non profit rate
Yes. Tell me what you can realistically afford. I will tell you what we can sensibly deliver without cutting corners.
Start the conversation
Tell me what you have now, what you want your site to do, and anything you are worried about. I will tell you what is realistic, what needs fixing first, and whether ongoing protection is worth it.
