Questions about a website for your Naunton business
Naunton is small. Do I really need a website?

My customers come from Bourton-on-the-Water and Stow-on-the-Wold as well. Can I say so?
Yes. A service area page can name Bourton-on-the-Water, Stow-on-the-Wold, Northleach and any other place you work in; just send us the list by email.
Who keeps the website up to date?
Email us the change (new prices, photos or services) and the team updates the site. Content changes are part of the monthly fee.
What about my domain name?
If you already own one, we connect it to the new website and your email. If not, tell us in the sign-up and we will help you pick one, by email.
Does the plan include business email?
Unlimited accounts on your domain, within 5 GB of total storage, plus webmail and spam filtering, all in the £69 plan.

Will the website work on phones?
