FAQ'S

The Nowt-But-Sites frequently asked questions.

What is a static website and why do you like them so much?

A static website is made from simple HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files. Unlike WordPress or other dynamic sites, it doesn't use a database or complex server processing. This makes it extremely fast to load, more secure (fewer things to hack), and much cheaper to run. Static sites are also considerably more reliable and resilient than CMS's like WordPress.

Yes! For simple changes (text, images, contact details), we can set it up so you edit directly via a user-friendly method or we provide clear instructions. For bigger updates, just get in touch, affordable change requests are available. Many clients prefer us to handle updates to keep things hassle-free.

How much does it cost?

I charge £40 an hour billed in 15 minute increments. The average website for a trade takes between 4 and 6 billable hours to complete. All websites are different however - fill in our online quotation form for a complete idea.

Hosting is either £40 a year - £3.33 a month for small sites or £80 a year for large sites. 

Custom code or artwork is going to be extra.

What are your terms?

When we have agreed on the work to be done and the cost I ask for 50% up front and the rest on completion.

Are there any hidden fees?

No. I keep things simple and transparent. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying for, with no surprise charges.

Can I cancel at any time?

Yes. There are no long-term contracts or tie in's. If you decide to cancel, just let us know.

Do I own my website?

Yes. Once your website is built, it’s yours. We simply host and maintain it for you.

Is there a backup?

I always keep a backup of the work I do for customers.
