Professional local business websites for just £450. Live within 7–14 days. Tell us about your business

Tailored copy

Local business websites, built and managed for you

We build your website.
You don't lift a finger.

Local web design that gets your business found. We write your copy, set up local SEO, and build a website that works in Google, Bing and AI search. Professionally designed and live within 7–14 days.

£450 one-off build + £15/mo hosting, maintenance & security

DIY builders start from £16/month, but expect 20+ hours of evenings and weekends figuring it out. At £50/hour, that's £1,000+ before your site is even live.

You've got enough on your plate. We'll handle the website.

No payment until your site is ready and you've given it the green light for launch.

How it works

From start to launch in four simple steps. We handle everything.

  1. Tell us about your business

    Tell us what you do, where you work and what you need. Takes a couple of minutes.

  2. We build your site

    We write tailored copy, design your pages, and handle all the setup for you.

  3. Review and approve

    You get a full preview before anything goes live. Nothing launches without your say-so.

  4. Launch and maintain

    Your site goes live, gets submitted to Google, and we take care of the maintenance from there.

Chris, founder of Launch My Local Site

Hi, I'm Chris.

I started Launch My Local Site after seeing too many local businesses get stuck in the same situation.

They either get quoted thousands upfront by agencies, handed a DIY website builder they don't have time to learn, or end up with a generic site that looks nice but never actually generates enquiries.

For most local businesses, the problem isn't just ability. It's time.

You're busy running the business, serving customers, answering calls and keeping everything moving. Writing website copy, choosing hosting, setting up domains and figuring out Google is usually the last thing you want to deal with.

That's exactly why Launch My Local Site exists.

You simply tell me about your business and I take care of the rest. I write the copy, build the site, handle the hosting and submit everything to Google so your website is ready to start bringing in enquiries.

No big upfront costs. No complicated setup.

Just a straightforward service that gets your business online properly.

Local business websites built for trades and services

We build websites for trades, local service businesses and small businesses across the UK. If you need a professional local business website without spending time building one yourself, we can help.

Helping your business get found in search and AI

Your website launches within 7 to 14 days, structured so search engines and AI platforms can understand your business properly.

Search-friendly page structure

Every page is built with clean HTML, proper heading hierarchy, and optimised meta tags so search engines can understand your content.

Clear page titles and descriptions

We write page titles and meta descriptions that include your business name, services, and location to help with local search.

Mobile-friendly design

Google prioritises mobile-friendly websites. Every site we build is fully responsive and tested on all devices.

Fast loading pages

Slow sites get penalised. Our sites are built to load fast, with optimised images and clean code.

Submitted to Google, Bing and AI search

We submit your site to Google and Bing the moment it goes live, and structure it so AI search platforms like ChatGPT, Google Gemini and Perplexity can find and reference your business too.

Structured data and schema markup

We add behind-the-scenes markup that helps Google understand your business type, location, and services.

For most businesses this means that when someone searches for your business name, your website appears clearly in Google results. Ranking for broader searches such as services in your area usually requires ongoing SEO work.

Frequently asked questions

We’ll get in touch within 3 working days, by phone or email, to find out more about your business and what you need from your website. On that call we confirm the plan and anything we need from you, then we get underway.

Quickly. Once we’ve confirmed the plan with you, we get underway straight away and aim to have the full website ready for you to preview within 7–14 days.

No, we write the core website copy for you based on the information you provide. You’ll get to review everything before it goes live.

Yes. You’ll get a full preview of your website and nothing goes live until you’ve approved it. One review round is included.

The £450 one-off build covers everything needed to get your website live: tailored copy written for you, all the essential pages, mobile-friendly design, GDPR cookie consent, search engine friendly setup, and submission to Google, Bing and AI search platforms on launch. The £15 a month covers everything after that: your domain, hosting, SSL certificate, security and software updates, backups, and minor content changes when your business changes.

Yes. Your domain name, hosting, SSL certificate and all the technical setup are covered by the £15 a month, for as long as your plan is active. There is nothing extra to buy or renew separately.

You won’t pay until your site is ready and you’ve approved it for launch. The build is a one-off £450. After launch, hosting and maintenance is £15 a month on a rolling basis.

We supply four logo concepts to choose from, based on your business details and any preferences you share with us. You pick your favourite. You only pay for your logo if you’re happy with it. Once payment is received, we upload it to your website and send you the hi-res version for use elsewhere: branding, print, signage, whatever you need.

Absolutely. If you already have a logo, we’ll use it on your website. Just send it across and we’ll take care of the rest.

No problem. If you already have a website or domain, we will provide clear DNS instructions so your provider can point the domain to your new website. Where access is required, we will guide you through the safest way to do this without sharing sensitive account credentials. We only repoint your website, not your emails, so there’s no disruption to your email service.

We submit your website to Google as part of the launch checks. It can usually take a number of days for Google to start indexing your website, and it normally takes 2–4 weeks before you start seeing your website appearing in Google for your business name. Every site is built with SEO best practices including optimised page titles and meta descriptions, clean URL structure, fast page load speeds, structured heading hierarchy, mobile-first responsive design, image optimisation, and proper schema markup where applicable. For searches on your business name, your website should appear once indexed. Ranking for broader searches such as services in your area usually requires ongoing SEO work over time.

No one can guarantee specific Google rankings, and anyone who does is making promises they can’t keep. What we can guarantee is that your website will be built with solid SEO foundations and submitted to Google on launch. For your business name, your site should appear within a few weeks. For competitive service searches, consistent SEO effort over time is what makes the difference. We offer a Local SEO Support add-on if you’d like ongoing help with that.

If other businesses share a similar or identical name, it may take longer for your website to appear prominently in Google for that name. We help by optimising your site with your location and service type to differentiate you. A Google Business Profile listing, available as an add-on, also helps establish your business identity in local search results.

Yes. Minor text and image updates are included as part of your ongoing maintenance. If you need larger changes such as new pages or additional features, we can quote for those separately.

You own all the content you provide and the website copy we write for you. The design, code, and underlying systems remain with Launch My Local Site while your plan is active. If you cancel, we can provide your content on request within 30 days of termination.

Just mention it when you enquire. If you need something beyond the standard build, whether that is booking systems, e-commerce, integrations or anything custom, we’ll talk it through and prepare a tailored price before any work starts.

No minimum term. Hosting and maintenance is £15 a month on a rolling basis, and you can cancel whenever you like with 30 days’ written notice by email. Your website, hosting and maintenance stay live for as long as your plan is active.

Ready to get your business online?

We can typically get most websites up and running within 7 to 14 days. Every enquiry your website generates goes 100% to you. No commission, no middleman, no hidden fees.

No payment until your site is ready and you've approved it for launch.

We will never ask you to provide email passwords, banking information or sensitive account credentials through this website.
