Essential Monthly

The Essential website.

Same website. Different payment route.

Compare Essential
side by side.

The monthly route spreads the build cost and includes technical care. The upfront route gives immediate ownership and complete freedom from a minimum term.

Common questions

Good questions.
Straight answers.

Do I have to pay monthly?+

No. Pay monthly is a second way to buy an Essential website. Launch, Essential and Growth remain available as upfront projects.

Do I pay everything upfront?+

For upfront projects, we normally take a 50% deposit and the balance before launch. Essential Monthly starts with a £99 setup payment, followed by 12 monthly payments of £79.

When does monthly billing begin?+

The £99 setup payment starts onboarding. The 12 monthly payments begin when the website is approved or ready to launch, as set out in your written agreement.

Who owns the website?+

Upfront customers own their finished project-specific website immediately. Essential Monthly customers receive permanent rights after 12 successfully paid months. Your domain, logo, photography and supplied content remain yours.

What happens after 12 months?+

You can choose care from £29 per month, move to a plan with content updates, or take the website elsewhere with no NDS release fee.

Are hosting and domain costs included?+

Managed hosting, SSL and technical care are included during the Essential Monthly term. Domain registration, email accounts and paid third-party services are separate unless your proposal says otherwise.

Are content changes included each month?+

Technical maintenance is included, but routine content changes are not. We quote additions separately, or you can move to Stay Current after the initial term.

Is VAT included?+

Your written proposal confirms whether VAT applies. Any applicable tax will be shown clearly before you commit.
