What is Website as a Service?
A smarter way to get online without breaking the bank
Traditional web design requires a large upfront investment, often £1,500 to £5,000 or more. Then you still need hosting, maintenance, and updates.
WaaS changes everything.
For a simple monthly subscription, you get a professionally designed website that's fully managed, regularly updated, and continuously improved. No surprise costs, no technical headaches, just a beautiful website that works for your business.
Think of it like Netflix for your website
Instead of buying DVDs (traditional web design), you subscribe to a service that's always fresh, always maintained, and always there when you need it.

Frequently asked questions
What happens after the 12-month term?
After your initial 12-month commitment, you can continue month-to-month with no long-term obligation. You can cancel with 30 days' notice, or upgrade/downgrade your plan as needed.
Do I own the website?
During your active subscription, you have full use of the website. If you cancel, you can purchase the website outright for a one-time fee (typically 8-12 months of subscription fees), or we can provide you with a static export of your content.
What counts as a "monthly update"?
Monthly updates include content changes, adding new images, updating text, minor layout adjustments, and small feature additions. Major redesigns or large feature development may require additional hours or a plan upgrade.
Can I upgrade or downgrade my plan?
Yes! You can upgrade at any time. Downgrades are available after your initial 12-month term. We'll work with you to ensure the transition is smooth.
Is there a setup fee?
No setup fees! Your monthly subscription covers everything, including the initial design and development. You just start paying when your site launches.
What if I need more than the included hours?
Additional development or content work is available at £50/hour. Alternatively, you can upgrade to a higher plan with more included hours.
Can you add e-commerce to my WaaS site?
Absolutely! E-commerce is included in the Professional plan, or available as an add-on for other plans. We integrate with Stripe, PayPal, and other payment providers.
What makes WaaS different from traditional web design?
Traditional web design requires a large upfront payment (£1,500-£5,000+) plus ongoing costs for hosting and maintenance. WaaS spreads the cost over time with a predictable monthly fee that includes everything, design, hosting, updates, and support.
