If you have looked for a web designer in Norwich recently, you’ve probably seen the quotes. £2,000, £5,000, maybe even £10,000 upfront. For a small business, that is a massive hit to your cash flow.
And the worst part? Once you pay that money and the site launches, the agency disappears. If you need a text change next month, they charge you an hourly rate. If the site breaks, you pay to fix it.
At Arcscribe, me and Harvey decided to flip this model on its head.
Enter the "Partner Model" (WaaS)
We offer "Website as a Service." Instead of a massive lump sum, you pay a manageable monthly fee. But this isn't just about spreading the cost, it's about aligning our incentives with yours.
1. We Are Invested in Your Uptime
When you pay a huge upfront fee, the agency is incentivized to finish the job quickly and leave. When you pay monthly, we are incentivized to keep you happy every single month.
If your site goes down, it’s our problem, not yours. We monitor, update, and fix issues instantly because we want to earn your business for the long haul.
2. Unlimited Edits (Within Reason)
Business changes fast. You might change your opening hours, launch a new service, or hire a new staff member.
With a traditional agency, you’d hesitate to email them because you know a bill is coming. With Arcscribe, you just text us. "Hey, can you update the pricing on the Services page?" Done. No extra invoice. No friction.
3. Technology Evolves. So Should Your Site.
A website built in 2020 looks old in 2025. With the traditional model, you have to pay for a full redesign every few years. With our model, we iterate constantly. We tweak the code, improve the speed, and adjust the design over time so your site never "rots."
Keep Your Cash Flow Healthy
Why sink £3,000 into a website today when you could use that money for stock, advertising, or staff?
Our model lets you get a £5,000-quality custom website for a monthly rate that fits your operating budget. It’s smarter business.
