    What's NOT included in your website packages?

    Nobody knows your business better than you, so it makes sense for the text content (copy) to come from you. We are of course very happy to advise you about suitable content for your site. Please note that any translation of your text is dealt with separately from package contents (see below for more details).

    Can we get a free site or a discount?

    If your site is non-profit (typically for organisations or clubs), then yes, we might consider creating your site for free. Discounts are also available - if you can give us a good enough reason why, then we're open to suggestions. :-)

    For new online shops, we understand that start-up costs can be daunting. We're open to your suggestions about flexible payments, or cost reductions in exchange for a percentage of profits.
