40.5% of the people in Llanwern are aged 20 to 34, a younger mix than Wales as a whole (18.4%). That says a lot about what a website for a Llanwern business should show first. Our £69 plan covers the website or online shop, your domain, email and hosting, ready within 3 working days on a temporary link.
No setup fee: you only pay the £69 monthly fee once you have approved your website.
Who lives and works in Llanwern
The Newport local authority area grew by 4.8% between mid-2021 and mid-2024, to 167,405 people. New residents have no favourite plumber, café or hairdresser yet, so they search; a clear website is how a Llanwern business gets onto that first list.
Industries that stand out in Newport
The Newport local authority area had 5,445 local business units in 2026. The sectors below are more common here than across Wales, with what each one’s website should show:

The process, from first email to launch
Our team has been designing websites for small businesses since 2008. The plan is the same in Llanwern as in any other town in the United Kingdom: one monthly fee, everything arranged by email.
- Start with the online sign-up (about 5 minutes) and tell us what the business does.
- You get a temporary link within 3 working days, so you can click through every page and ask for changes by email.
- Once you say it is ready, the first monthly fee is issued and the website goes live on your domain.
After it goes live, the technical side stays with us, and text and photo updates by email come with the plan.
- A business website or an online shop, for the same monthly fee
- Your own domain: bring the one you have, or we help you choose one
- Email on your domain: unlimited accounts, 5 GB in total, webmail and spam filtering
- Hosting, an SSL certificate and daily backups
- Changes to text, photos and prices, requested by email
- Ready within 3 working days on a temporary link
Running a business website from Llanwern: the rules
Before launch, it helps to have the basics in order. These apply to many small businesses in Wales:
- Organisations, including sole traders, that use personal information need to pay a data protection fee to the ICO, although many can rely on an exemption; the tier 1 fee is £52. ICO: data protection fee
- You must not send marketing emails or texts to individuals without specific consent; there is a limited exception for your own previous customers, often called the soft opt-in. ICO: email marketing
General information, not legal advice. Each link goes to the official page, where the details for your situation are.
Llanwern website questions, answered
Is a website worth it in a place of 305 people?
Your market is bigger than Llanwern. People across Newport look up services online, and a clear website brings them to you.
How do I keep in touch with the team?
We work online from start to finish. Logo, photos and texts come by email, and you approve the site on a temporary link.
What about my domain name?
If you have one, keep it: we point it to the website. If not, say so in the sign-up and we sort out the options with you by email.
Who writes the text and picks the photos?
A logo, some photos of your work or premises and a short description of what you offer, all by email. We build the pages and you approve every one.
Can the website be an online shop?
Yes, an online shop costs the same £69 a month as a regular website: a catalogue of your products, basket and online payment.
My customers come from Underwood and Langstone as well. Can I say so?
Of course. Email us the towns you serve (for example Underwood, Langstone and Caerleon) and they go on a service area page.
Does the plan include business email?
As many addresses on your domain as you need, sharing 5 GB in total, with webmail and spam filtering.
Do I pay anything to get started?
No. No setup fee: you only pay the £69 monthly fee once you have approved your website. No lock-in contract. You can stop the service whenever you need to.
