Keeping the lights on and the door open, even in a social media blackout!

Your own front door that nobody can shut.

Social media is a rented stall. A website is your own shop.

Lots of small businesses run on Facebook or Instagram. That's great, until something goes wrong. Pages get banned or suspended, sometimes by mistake. Honest businesses get switched off too. The rules change overnight. And you can't always get through to anyone to fix it.

If your page went quiet tonight, where would your customers go?

A website on your own web address keeps the door open. People can still find you, call you and message you, whatever happens to your page.

You don't have to choose. Keep your social pages. Your website links to them, and they link back. But only one of them can't be taken away.

Let your social pages point people home.

• On your website, everything is in the order you choose. Nothing gets buried.
• On social media, people get side-tracked by adverts and other businesses' posts, and scroll away before they find you.
• Your posts can get lost in the feed, or never be shown at all.
• Your website is the one place that's always there, just the way you set it out.

So keep posting, and put your website link in your bio and your posts. Let your socials do the chatting, and let your website do the rest.

Simple steps. We do the techy bits.

1. Sign up. Click Get started and pop in your email. You'll also pick a username and password, and give us a backup email.
2. Tell us about your business. Your name, phone and email, what you do, and the look you like. Choose a .co.uk or .uk web address. The checker shows if it's free. That address is included.
3. Pay £45, first month included. Pay securely online, and we'll tell you your place in the queue.
4. We build your preview. We put your details into your chosen ready-made design. You don't need to do a thing.
5. You approve it. We email you a private link and a passcode, so only you can see it.
6. You go live. Your site goes live on your own web address.
7. Then £15 a month, starting one month after your site goes live. That keeps your site online and includes 4 updates a year.

Need a change later? Just email us. Four updates a year are included.
