Dewing Grain: six hours a week back
Websites are the small end of what we do. For a Norfolk grain merchant we wrote the program that now reads their market reports, so nobody spends six hours a week doing it by hand.
See the workCloudship builds websites from Bungay, on the Suffolk bank of the Waveney. The county boundary is a few hundred yards away and Norwich is about fifteen miles up the A146, so if you would like to meet, we can meet.
A starter site costs £250 once, then £39 a year. Up to five pages, an editor you can drive yourself, hosting and SSL included for the first year, and set up properly with Google and Bing so you turn up when a Norfolk customer searches for what you do.
Enough for most trades and independents: who you are, what you do, where you are, and how to get hold of you. Designed for a phone screen before a desktop one.
You make your own changes to the words and pictures from any browser. No code, and no waiting a week for a developer to fit you in.
Fast static hosting, an SSL certificate so browsers trust you, and your domain pointed at it. The first year is in the £250.
Enquiries land in a list you can read and export. The form has a consent tickbox and a plain-English privacy notice, and copes with around 100 sign-ups a month.
Page titles, descriptions, a sitemap and local business structured data, then submitted to Google Search Console and Bing in your name so the site gets indexed.
From the second year it is £39 a year for hosting, SSL, the editor and security updates. You can cancel at any point and take the content with you.

See the workNorwich, Great Yarmouth, King's Lynn, Thetford, Dereham, Wymondham, Attleborough, Diss, Harleston, Loddon, North Walsham, Aylsham, Cromer, Sheringham and the coast. The Broads and the villages between them count too.
If you're a tradesperson, a shop, a holiday let, a village pub, a therapist or a one-van operation, the £250 site is meant for you. It exists because we kept meeting businesses with nothing online at all, or a listing on a directory site they don't control, who'd been quoted for something far bigger than they needed.
Selling online, taking bookings, member logins, a site with dozens of pages, website analytics, an ongoing SEO campaign, or a website that talks to your till, diary or accounts package: none of that fits in £250, and we'll tell you so on the call rather than afterwards. We do all of it, quoted once we know the shape of it. See software development in Norfolk for that side of things.
How much does a website cost in Norfolk? £250 for a starter site, paid once, and £39 a year from the second year. The price includes up to five pages and an editor you run yourself, plus hosting, SSL, pointing your domain at the site, an SEO pass and submitting it to Google and Bing. The domain itself you register direct with a registrar, for roughly £10 to £15 a year.
Are you actually based in Norfolk? We're a few hundred yards outside it, in Bungay on the Suffolk side of the Waveney, and we are happy to drive out to see the job.
I already have a website. Can you improve it? Send us the address and the login and we'll tell you whether it's worth keeping, tidying or replacing. Sometimes the right answer is to leave the site alone and spend the money on better photos.
How long does it take? One to two weeks from getting your content, brand and domain access.
Do I need any technical knowledge? No. That's what the editor is for: you change text, images, prices and opening hours in a browser, and we walk you through it once you're live.
