From Problem to Solution

I got into programming early on in my life by playing Flash Games, but after my wife had our first child I wanted to do something that I can do from home with the experience i've learned over the years for a better future for my family.

What I found was that a lot of small businesses don't have the funds to spend thousands of pounds upfront on a new website. And the ones that did, got taken advantage of with probably some wordpress website that looks like it was built by someone who hasn't been on the internet since early AOL Dial Up Days (if you're a Zoomer I highly recommend googling that). They were in a frustrating spot - they either can't afford a good website, and if they can they don't know who to trust to make something great.

So I tried to find a way to fit myself into this, with a £0 upfront, and £175 a month. It's more manageable for a small business to handle and won't hurt your bank accounts:

The Custom Advantage

Custom vs. Template Websites

While templates offer a quick start, custom-built websites provide significant advantages for businesses looking for performance, flexibility, and long-term value.

Reduced Security Vulnerabilities
Future-Proof Scalability

While the upfront investment may be higher, custom-built websites typically offer better long-term value through improved performance, security, and flexibility.
