85.2% of households in Frogham live in a detached house, against 22.9% across England. That says a lot about what a website for a Frogham business should show first. For £69 a month, we set up a professional website with your brand, email on your domain and hosting, with no setup fee.
No setup fee: you only pay the £69 monthly fee once you have approved your website.
What makes Frogham different
Frogham has a lot of people working for themselves (17.1% of adults are self-employed). That means plenty of competition among sole traders, and a professional website is one of the clearest ways to stand out.

Running a business website from Frogham: the rules
Putting your business online does not change the rules, but a few rules are worth checking:
- A limited company must include its name on all company documents, publicity and letters, and on business letters, order forms and websites it must also show its registered number, its registered office address and where it is registered. GOV.UK: company names on websites
- You cannot set non-essential cookies on your website before the visitor has consented to them, and that consent must be actively and clearly given. ICO: cookies
- When you sell online, you must tell the customer they can cancel their order up to 14 days after it is delivered, and they do not need to give a reason. GOV.UK: online and distance selling

Answers for South East business owners
Is a website worth it in a place of 300 people?
Yes. Customers from across New Forest 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. The plan can be an online shop with a catalogue, a basket and online payment, for the same £69 a month.
How fast can I see the website?
Within 3 working days of receiving your material, the website is ready on a temporary link. It goes live on your domain after you approve it and the first monthly fee is paid.
What do I need to send?
Real photos taken with a good phone often work better than stock images. Email them with your logo and a list of services.
What if I need to change something later?
Our team does it for you: email what needs changing and we take care of it, along with hosting, SSL and backups.
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.
