The questions everyone asks.

Werehouse Media is a one-person, SEO-led web design studio in England run by Ed. Single-page sites start at £495 and most multi-page builds land between £1,795 upwards, with the timeline agreed at quote stage: days for a single page, weeks for a multi-page build. Standalone SEO starts at £495 a month, brand kits from £895, automation priced on application and website care from £49 a month with no contract. Every project is quoted in writing before work starts. Clients own the domain, the code and every account outright, and nothing stops working if they leave. Hosting is optional from £9 a month and never a condition of the build.

No sales script. If the honest answer is "you do not need this", that is the answer you will get.

Projects start at £995. A business website with several pages that each have a real job to do runs from £1,795, and a complex custom build with heavy animation, e-commerce or booking behind it can occasionally reach five figures. A scoped one-page site is available separately at £495 for businesses with a single service in a single area. What moves the number is how many pages have a real job to do, whether there is e-commerce or booking behind it, and how much custom animation you want. The higher the price the longer the timeline, and you get a fixed price in writing before any work starts.

Anywhere from 3 days for a simple site to over a month for a complex build. There is no universal timeline and I am not going to invent one for you. It comes down to the size of the project, how complex the interactivity is, and the budget. You get a realistic date at quote stage, and you will never go a week without seeing something tangible.

Yes, 100%. The final payment is the site becoming yours outright. It is not a licence and it is not a subscription. That covers the code, the content, the domain and the accounts. If you walk away tomorrow, nothing stops working and nobody withholds a password.

Your choice. Keep your existing hosting, or I host it for you from £9 a month. Hosting through me is optional and it is never a condition of the build. Plenty of clients keep whoever they are already with, and that is genuinely fine.

On more complex builds, yes: the site is delivered with a login to my own content app, so you can publish text and image updates yourself whenever you like. It is not part of every build, because not every site needs it. If you want it, say so at quote stage and it goes in the scope.

Yes, from a standalone SEO audit through to a full website build with SEO designed in from the first page. The difference here is that the person writing the code is also the person doing the SEO. There is no handoff between a developer and an SEO who have never spoken, and no argument about whose job the page structure was.

Roughly a third of the project cost books the work, a third is due when the first draft is delivered, and the balance is due on delivery of the final draft, before launch. Before any of that there is a discovery call to get your brand, your ideas and what you actually want the site to do. I build the first draft, you give feedback, I build the final draft. I am currently running unlimited revisions between the first and final draft, so we do not move forward until you are happy with how it looks. That is a live offer rather than a permanent policy, so ask when you enquire.

If you already have brand imagery and content, I use it. If you do not, I can source imagery for you at an additional cost, agreed with you before any work starts. Nothing gets added to your invoice that you have not already said yes to.

I do, and the launch date works around your deadline rather than mine. You can point your own domain at the finished site, or I can buy one on your behalf for an additional cost.

No. Every build currently includes a 30-day post-launch package covering technical fixes and reasonable content and design tweaks. Within sensible limits that is included, and anything substantial beyond it becomes a separate paid job that I price up front. The same commitment applies as during the drafts: I will not push the site live until you are happy with how it looks.

About ten years in the industry across several roles, plus founding and still running my own e-commerce brand, HOMESŌKO, selling sustainable kitchenware primarily into Australia. So I am the person paying for the marketing and living with what it does or does not return, not only the person building it. That is why the copy and the page order get as much attention as the design: the job is to establish trust immediately and walk someone through the site to an enquiry, not just to look good in a screenshot.

Werehouse Media builds websites, from single-page brochure sites up to complex, animation-heavy, custom-coded builds designed to make a business stand out. One person handles the design, the copy, the build and the SEO, so the decisions that affect all four get made together instead of being passed between departments.

Businesses and individuals of any size, in any industry. The size of the company matters far less than whether the site has a clear job to do. A sole trader who knows exactly what they want their site to achieve is an easier and better project than a large firm that has not decided.

Yes, and I still run one of my own: HOMESŌKO, a sustainable kitchenware brand selling primarily into Australia. That means the conversation about product pages, checkout friction and shipping costs comes from living with the numbers every month, not from reading about them.

Both. I can redesign or rebuild from your existing site or template, though my default is to build new from scratch. There is little to no cost difference between the two, so the decision is usually about how much of what you have is genuinely worth keeping.

It varies by niche, but expect three to six months for meaningful, measurable movement in both Google and AI search. Showing up in LLM and AI search tools on broader questions can happen within days of launch, which is faster than traditional search usually moves. A brand new domain takes longer than an established one, and anyone guaranteeing you page one in 30 days is guessing.

Support and website care run monthly alongside the one-off builds. The packages are set out on the SEO page, and if none of them fit what you need, get in touch and I will price something that does.

Yes. I work remotely with clients anywhere and I am not limited to a local area. Most projects run over email, calls and shared drafts, and the work is the same whether you are twenty minutes away or four hours.

Shopify, WordPress including custom CMS setups, fully custom-coded builds, or whatever you are already using. I am platform-agnostic on purpose. The platform gets chosen for the job in front of us, not because it is the only one I know.

Yes, and no it is not extra. Generative engine optimisation, also called GEO or LLM SEO, is the work of getting named in answers written by ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity and Copilot. It is included in every SEO engagement at the prices already published, because the technical half of it is the same work as the technical half of SEO. Charging separately for one crawl audit under two names would be a pricing tactic. There is more detail on the AI search page, including what nobody can promise.
