How much should a tradesperson's website cost in the UK?
How much does a tradesperson's website cost from Millwards Digital? Launch is £249 plus £39 per month, for one polished scrolling page with a mobile-friendly design, enquiry form and managed care. Business is £599 plus £69 per month, for up to five core pages in a service-led structure with one standard booking or simple payment integration. Growth is £1,099 plus £99 per month, for up to ten core pages with room for a full online shop, portal or complex workflow, broader content support and priority monthly support.
What does a tradesperson's website need?
A trade website does not need to be complicated. Most customers ask three things: do you do this work, do you cover my area, and how can I get a quote? The basics worth having:
- A visible, tap-friendly phone number — many customers call before they enquire.
- A clear list of services — in plain words, including anything you do not take on.
- The areas you genuinely cover — real towns and regions, not repeated keywords.
- Photos of past work — only pictures you are entitled to use.
- A simple way to ask for a quote — a short enquiry form or a clear email address.
- A link to your Google Business Profile — it helps local people find you and trust that you are real.
The free ten-point website checklist covers these and more. Open it on your phone, tick off each point in about two minutes, and keep it somewhere useful. There is no sign-up.
How do the plans compare?
| Plan | Price | Includes |
|---|---|---|
| Launch | £249 + £39/month | One polished scrolling page, mobile-friendly design, enquiry form, managed hosting, backups and care |
| Business | £599 + £69/month | Up to five core pages, service-led structure, one standard booking or simple payment integration, local search foundations, expanded monthly support |
| Growth | £1,099 + £99/month | Up to ten core pages, full online shop, portal or complex workflow, broader content support, priority monthly support |
Launch suits a sole trader with one focused message and a clear enquiry route. Business suits several services, customer groups or areas, and adds one standard booking or simple payment integration where an appointment, deposit or invoice-payment route makes sense. Growth suits broader content, a full shop or a portal, with priority monthly support.
The build and first care month are paid together, so the website-only amount due today is £288 (Launch), £668 (Business) or £1,198 (Growth). Care then renews monthly and can be cancelled before the next billing date. A new domain's first-year price and optional extras — additional pages at £99 each, business email at £4.99 per mailbox per month, an extra design-revision round at £79 — are shown and agreed before any payment. Millwards Digital is not VAT registered, so listed prices have no VAT added.
