Answers for West Midlands business owners
Is a website worth it in a place of 511 people?
Your market is bigger than Pembridge. People across Herefordshire look up services online, and a clear website brings them to you.
What if I need to change something later?
Email us the change (new prices, photos or services) and the team updates the site. Content changes are part of the monthly fee.
What is the website built on?
On the Aria Platform, which is built on WordPress and set up by our team, so you get a professional site without dealing with the technical side.
Is there a minimum contract?
No lock-in. The plan is month to month at £69, with nothing to pay before you approve the website.
Do we need to meet?
We work online from start to finish. Logo, photos and texts come by email, and you approve the site on a temporary link.
Who writes the text and picks the photos?
Your logo, a few 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.
I already own a domain. Can I keep it?
If you have one, keep it: we point it to the website. If not, mention it when you sign up and we sort out the options with you by email.
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.
