Your new website is already built.

We build complete, modern websites for organisations whose websites are showing their age. Then we show you. If you like it, it's yours.

How it works

We do the work first. You decide afterwards.

We build it

Using what's already public about you: your name, what you do, your photos, your story. Every page, written and designed, working on phones. No forms to fill in first.

You look round

We email you a private link. Click it and the finished website opens, just for you. Send it to the people who need to see it. Take your time; it'll wait.

You decide

Take it as it is, take it with changes, or let us look after it for you. Or say no thanks and we'll take it down. There's no catch and no chasing.

What it costs

The website is £300. Then it's up to you.

Every option starts with the same thing: the finished website, for £300. You can stop there, add changes, or add us looking after it.

The website
£300 + VAT
One payment. Nothing more, ever.

The complete website files, yours to host anywhere. Plain, well-made HTML any web person can look after.

The website, with changes
£450 + VAT
That's the website plus £150 of changes. One payment.

Tell us what you'd like different, wording, photos, an extra page, and we'll make the changes before handing over.

The website, looked after
£300 + £45 a month
A year's commitment to start with, then rolling. £450 + VAT a year, or £45 + VAT a month for at least twelve months. Plus £300 + VAT setup.

We put it on your domain, host it, keep it safe and fast, give you a simple editor for news and updates, and make small changes by email. Leave whenever you like and keep the files.

All prices exclude VAT at 20%. Prices are for the websites we build unasked. If you'd like something bigger, we're a web consultancy: ask.

Who's behind it

A small UK web consultancy, not a factory.

Ready & Waiting is a service of Merchiston & Grant Ltd, a web and technology consultancy in the UK. When you reply to an email from us you get Giles, who runs it, not a ticket number. We only build for organisations we think we can help.

UK

Registered company. UK-hosted.

Yours

You own the site, the files and the words.

No tie-in

Leave the looked-after plan any time after the first year.

A person

Every email is read and answered by Giles.

Questions

The ones people ask first.

Is this real? Nobody asked you to build it.

It's real. We build first because a finished website is easier to judge than a proposal. If it's not for you, say so and it comes down.

What about our existing website and domain?

You keep your domain. The new site goes on it when you're ready, and we'll help with the switch. Nothing changes until you say.

Where did you get our photos and details?

From what you've already published: your current website, public registers, your own printed material. Anything we weren't sure of is marked so you can check it.

Who owns it afterwards?

You do. Files, words, design. On the looked-after plan we host it for you, and you can take the files with you if you leave.

Can we talk to someone first?

Yes. Every website we show you has a "talk to us" button that goes to Giles, and you can book a call from it.

Want one?

Haven't had an email from us? Ask.

Tell us who you are and we'll take a look. If we think we can help, you'll get a link to your new website within a week. If not, we'll say so. Nothing to pay either way.

UK organisations only. We use your address only to reply.
