In today's modern world, many of your potential customers will only try to find you using the internet. If you don't have a presence on the internet, any potential customers will just choose one of your competitors who can be found online.
Finding it difficult?
You may have previously tried to sort out your own online listing, but came up against some hurdles...
Too expensive
Too time consuming
Too complicated
We're here to help!
Don't worry - sit back, relax, and let The Website Factory build and manage your website for you!
Your website will be packed full of features
Here's 10 of the one's we'll think you'll like best!
Your own website name and email addresses
We'll get you set up with your own .co.uk domain name, like johnsmithelectrics.co.uk. You'll then be able to have your own customised email accounts: for example quotes@johnsmithelectrics.co.uk.
Modern, retro... pick your preferred style from a number of different options. We'll also style it to match your chosen colour palette. We even offer an option of creating a logo for you if you don't have one already.
Your website will be set up with SSL certificates to ensure that your visitors see the padlock. Any email accounts we also create for you come with spam filters and anti-virus scanning built in.
Let your customers know how far you're prepared to travel to them on a handy map. This also helps you to appear in search results when your customers search for local businesses.
We'll also set up a contact form so that your customers can leave messages or request a quote. These will then be automatically emailed to you so that you can respond to customers at your convenience. This is great at reducing the phone interruptions throughout the day whilst you're busy on another job.
We'll also list any other contact options you'd like, e.g. telephone, address, email, WhatsApp, etc. We can also show other details like your working days or opening hours.
1 Each email address comes with a 10GB mailbox - in real terms, you can store tens of thousands of plain text emails before hitting this limit!

Our Guarantees
If you're not happy, then neither are we!
Only pay when you're happy

We're always just a phone call or email away.
No commitments or contracts
You are free to transfer your web address elsewhere at any time. There's no long term contracts to sign with The Websites Factory, at the end of your first year your hosting plans renews monthly - but can be cancelled at any time.
We can list any number of different contact options on the website. Your contact phone number can be listed. We can also list your email address. We'll also include a contact form on your website - this allows customers to send you messages. We'll then forward these messages to your email address where you can reply directly to the customer by email. If you use WhatsApp and are happy to receive messages in that way we can include a prominent link to your WhatsApp account - customers can then send messages here.
No. The setup fee covers the first year that your website is online. After the first year the monthly fee begins to cover the costs of renewing your web address and keeping your website alive. Think of it as the "rent" for your website occupying space on the internet. There's no long term commitments or contracts - you can cancel at any time. There are no refunds, we'll keep your website online until the end of your current billing period, whether that's the end of the first year, or the end of the month in which you cancel in the second year. If you'd prefer, we can turn off the website immediately.
Yes. However, it must be renewed each year for you to keep it. Internet companies known as 'registrars' look after these addresses, but they require a fee each year to continue to perform this service. We cover this renewal charge for you in our fees. But you're free at any time to transfer your address elsewhere if you decide that you'd rather your website was hosted somewhere else. There are usually no charges to transfer web addresses.
Once you place your order we will contact you to find out some more details about what you'd like on your website. We'll run through exactly what you'd kind to appear on your website.
Once we've got all the information from you about what you'd like to show on your website we aim to have the first draft back in your hands with 48-72 hours. If there's lots of information to add it may take a bit longer, but we try to aim to have it completed within 7 days.
If you're not happy with your website then we're not happy! When you place your order we collect a small deposit to cover the purchase of your own web address. We only ask for the balance to be paid when you're happy with your finished website.
We can build your website in a number of different styles, have a look at some of the examples to get an idea. If you've got a particular style, font or colour scheme in mind we'll build the site around this.
