Yes. Customers from across Somerset search before they travel, and a website is how they find you. It also answers the basics (hours, prices, location) without a phone call.
Can customers order from my website?
Yes, an online shop costs the same £69 a month as a regular website: a catalogue of your products, basket and online payment.
Who keeps the website up to date?
Send the new details by email and we update the pages; it is included in the £69 plan.
When does the site go live?
You see it within 3 working days. Then you ask for changes, approve, pay the first month, and it goes live on your domain.
Does the site look right on a mobile?
Yes, it is built to work on phones first, with buttons that are easy to tap and pages that open fast.
I already own a domain. Can I keep it?
