The business base
Manchester-based, serving businesses across the UK
Cheap as Chips Websites is based in Manchester. There is no public studio, walk-in shop or
face-to-face service. The work is handled online, which keeps the process simple and makes the same packages available
to a business in Manchester, Glasgow, Cardiff, Belfast or anywhere else in the UK.
Manchester matters because it is home. It gives the business a real base and a bit of northern
plain speaking. Your location does not change the published package prices.
The actual service
Clear brochure websites for small businesses
The service covers focused websites for trades, shops, hospitality, independent services,
side businesses and other small organisations with something real to explain. Pages are designed
to work properly on phones, tablets and computers. They use clear headings, readable copy and obvious contact routes.
It is not the route for a large online shop, custom app or complicated member platform. Those jobs
need a different budget and a longer process. The point here is to do the normal website job well,
then stop before a simple brief becomes a saga.
How remote delivery works
You send the useful bits
Start with the enquiry form. Include what the business does, the current website if there is one,
the rough package and any deadline that genuinely matters. Links, phone photos, logos and messy notes
are all fine. Nobody expects a polished creative brief from a person who has a business to run.
Then it stays clear
Agree the scope before the build
The simplest sensible package is recommended. You receive the scope and price before paying a
50% deposit. The first version is built once the core content arrives. Feedback is handled in the
included revision rounds, then the balance is paid before handover or launch.
Package snapshot
How much does a small business website cost?
- Launch, £99–£149: one page and one revision round

The full pricing page explains ownership, deposits, inclusions and extras.
Search foundations
Built so search engines can understand the pages
The agreed pages receive descriptive titles, meta descriptions, clear headings, indexable content
and sensible internal links. That is what SEO-ready means here. It is a foundation, not a guaranteed
number-one ranking. Competition, reputation, useful content and links still matter after launch.
Read what SEO-ready actually includes for the work covered
at launch and what still needs attention afterwards.
Good fit
A small business that needs a proper place online
- You rely on recommendations or social profiles and need a site you control
- Your current website is dated or behaves badly on phones
- Customers keep asking basic questions the website should answer
- You want public prices and a direct conversation with the person doing the work
Useful routes
New build or refresh?
Choose small business website design if you need a fresh start.
Choose a website refresh if the current site has good bones but needs
a clearer layout or better phone experience. If you cannot tell, select “Not sure” on the form.
That is a normal answer.
Do you only work with Manchester businesses?
No. The business is based in Manchester and the service is delivered remotely across the UK.
Your location does not change the published package prices.
Can I visit an office or arrange an in-person meeting?
No public office or walk-in service is advertised. The process is designed to work online through
the enquiry form, email and agreed remote communication. That keeps a small website project moving
without adding travel and meeting costs for the sake of it.
Will you make separate pages for every town I want to rank in?
Not by swapping town names into duplicate pages. Useful service-area content needs a genuine reason
to exist and enough unique information to help a visitor. One honest UK-wide service is better than
dozens of thin duplicate location pages.
How quickly will I get a reply?
Enquiries usually receive a reply within 1–2 working days.
