Affordable Web Design For Small Business

Cost-effective Small Business Website Design Packages
If you’re a startup, sole trader or other small business seeking affordable web design, you’ll have seen some very cheap web design offers. So what’s the catch?
Simple — getting online is easier than competing online. Small business websites need to compete, but excessively cheap web design just wastes time, money and opportunities.
How do I know? I’ve been building websites since 1996 and specialising in cost-effective small business website design since 2005. Your competitors hire people like me to stay ahead of those who buy on price alone.
Still, until your business model is proven, investing £3,000 or more in fully bespoke web design (as established small firms often do) can be risky. On the other hand, cheaper basic websites may look good but can be limiting. So the affordable web design packages below focus on helping you compete cost-effectively, with ongoing small business support.
Simply pick an affordable web design package to get started from just £300 today and let me guide you through the whole process. Or check out my small business web design FAQs — and if you still have questions, let’s chat!

Award Winning Small Business Website Design & Support Services
Why Affordable Small Business Website Design Matters
Affordable web design helps small businesses grow
You can’t even test a business idea without visitors. Search engines don’t rank sites on their looks. So I build a lot of small business SEO into these packages.
Small business web design also needs ongoing support. Why? Because the web evolves rapidly. Competition grows fast. So do cyber threats and regulation.
These affordable small business website design packages fix all that. They offer the quality you need, backed by decades of experience.
Affordable Web Design Is Not Just Cheap Web Design
“Affordable” can mean many different things — but you’re not just buying a website here. You’re investing in the success of your own business.
With almost two billion sites online, you’ll need more than just a cheap, pretty website to succeed. That’s why these small business web design packages focus on providing real, ROI-generating value — not just cheap web design.
These are the SEO-focused, multi-page editable website packages that most small firms need. They are extremely flexible and the payment plans keep them within most small business budgets. They include mobile-friendly, responsive web design, SSL security and great on-site SEO as standard.
Unlike other small business website design packages, these are also backed by decades of technical, digital marketing and small business support experience. Very few agency staff have ever run a business. Most cheap web designers disappear before they gain enough business experience to really help. I’ve been running businesses since 1989, building sites since 1996 and specialising in affordable small business website design since 2005.
Why Are Editable Websites More Affordable?
Businesses have to evolve to meet the changing needs of their target audience. So small business websites often need content updates. Editable sites let you do those updates without learning to code or having to pay a web designer for basic text and image changes. They can also offer far more advanced features than static websites.
Besides, editable sites can give you a structure to fit content into, making content creation far easier. It’s also less stressful knowing that not only will it not go public until you’re ready, but that you’ll still be able to change it easily after that.
Still, if you’re keen to minimise your investment, my budget websites offer cost-effective yet low-cost web design. Those are editable too, though less flexible — or if you’d rather leave site updates to me, you may prefer my basic static site package.
A fantastic service! We are a small business just starting out with a new venture. Pete at Netcentrics has gone above and beyond to provide us with not only a fantastic website, but also invaluable business and marketing advice. The whole process has been incredibly positive and beyond what we expected compared to previous experiences. He is incredibly knowledgeable and supportive. His support did not stop at the end of the website build, he has continued to make himself available ensuring that we know how to maximise use of the website for our start up. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Pete to anyone.— Ceri E. Web Design:
Who Are These Affordable Web Design Packages For?
Affordable small business website design
These small business web design packages offer bootstrapped microbusinesses the best possible start on a tight budget. That makes them ideal for self-funded sole traders, partnerships and other firms with only a few staff.
With an optional map included, these also make great local business websites. Whether you serve customers in an area, or at one or more premises, it helps to show them where you are!
Larger firms need more advanced solutions. So do projects that aim to implement specific, unique processes. Still, I’ve been building all sorts of sites since 1996, including professional website redesigns and custom-coded community systems. So if you do need affordable web development services (i.e. bespoke coding), please get in touch.
Affordable Small Business Website Design for Sole Traders & Startups
Cashflow is often especially critical for UK microbusinesses like sole traders and self-funded startups. That’s why the setup payments for these solutions are spread over several months. I don’t charge VAT, and business websites are tax-deductible investments. So these packages normally pay for themselves many times over.
Excellent and professional work from beginning to end. Pete was open to ideas and able to make suggestions on how to develop my site. — Lisa P. Web Design:
Which Affordable Web Design Package Is Best?
Affordable web design for small business — from one of the three best website designers in Newport.
Which is the best small business website design package for you? That really depends on how your business operates.
- Do you need an online shop, with a shopping cart and a catalogue of products? Pick the Ecommerce package.
- The Marketing website package suits most other small businesses, especially coaches, professional service providers and creatives. It’s great for showcasing your expertise and for SEO. Being expandable and flexible, it can grow with your business, too. Want a blog or news page? Members-only content? Then you need a Marketing site.
- Brochure websites need paid ads or offline advertising like mobile signage, but can support booking systems and basic online payments. They can suit local businesses and trades, such as builders, roofers, electricians, plumbers, restaurants, hairdressers, gardeners, and so on. Still, Marketing sites are better for displaying project portfolios.
Still, if your business goals are a bit more advanced, just tell me about your project and we’ll go from there.

Not sure you’re ready to talk web design yet? Then let’s talk business. I’ve been helping small firms with more than just design and tech for many years. So the sooner we talk, the more I can help. Still, nothing costs more than missed chances. So don’t delay — let’s get started!
Ideas without action aren’t ideas. They’re regrets. — Steve Jobs
