Custom websites from £299
Affordable website design and custom web development
EKKO delivers bespoke website design and custom web development for small businesses, sole traders and startups without agency-level pricing. Every site is hand-built rather than templated: fast, mobile-first, built to convert enquiries, and priced so a growing business can actually say yes.
Quick answers
- How much does a small business website cost with EKKO?
- Our websites start from £299. The starting package is ideal for startups and small businesses that want a professional online presence: up to 4 pages, basic SEO, a contact form, mobile-first design, fast hosting and analytics. You get a fixed quote before we start, so there are no surprise costs.
- Can I get a good business website for £300?
- Yes. EKKO's £299 starting price covers a bespoke, mobile-first small business website built to convert enquiries. It is hand-built around your business, not a recycled template, and designed to look professional from day one.
- What is the difference between a template site and custom website development?
- A template site reuses a layout thousands of other businesses already have. Custom website development means the pages, structure and features are built around your business, so the site can grow with you and be extended with a CRM, bookings or automation later.

Why businesses choose EKKO for custom website development
Most affordable website options force a compromise: a cheap template that looks like everyone else, or a costly agency build that takes months. EKKO sits in between. You get bespoke website design, hand-built code and the polish of a premium brand, delivered on a small business budget.
- Bespoke design and code instead of a recycled template
- Mobile-first, because most of your customers arrive on a phone
- Written and structured for Google, not just for looks
- Optional booking, payments, quote forms and customer dashboards
- One point of contact throughout, no account-manager handovers
What is included in the £299 startup presence package
The £299 starting build gives startups and small businesses a professional online presence without overcommitting. It ships with the technical foundations that help you rank and convert: clean semantic markup, per-page titles and descriptions, fast hosting, an XML sitemap, accessibility-aware colour and contrast, and analytics so you can see what is working.
- Up to 4 core pages, expandable as you grow
- Mobile-first design that works properly on phones
- Search-friendly page titles, descriptions and structured data
- Contact form wired to your inbox or WhatsApp
- Basic SEO and analytics
- Fast hosting and security on a care plan from as little as £15/month
- Training so you are comfortable with the day-to-day parts you use
Affordable websites for sole traders and small businesses
Sole traders, trades, clinics, salons and local service businesses make up a large share of our clients. You do not need an enterprise budget to look credible online. The £299 starting package is designed specifically for small businesses and startups that need a professional website without overcommitting.
Websites for startups that need to launch fast
Startups need to look established on day one. Our startup builds start from the same £299 presence package and can be live in 3–5 days. Add landing pages, waitlists, dashboards, CRM and automation as the business finds traction.
Affordable does not mean cheap
A cheap website is often slow, poorly coded and invisible to Google. An affordable EKKO website is built properly from day one: fast pages, clean code, search-friendly structure and a design that earns trust. The price is low because we work lean, not because the work is cut-rate.
Grow into a full system when you are ready
Your website is usually step one. When enquiries pick up, we can connect a custom CRM, automated follow-up, a WhatsApp AI receptionist and EKKO Review Flow, all on the same foundation, so nothing needs rebuilding later.

- Do you offer bespoke website design in the UK?

- How quickly can my website go live?
- A focused small website from our £299 startup package can be live in 3–5 days once we have your content. Larger builds with CRM or automation take a little longer and we agree the timeline up front.
- Do I own the website?
- Yes. The website, domain and content are yours. We host and maintain it for you on a simple care plan from as little as £15 per month, so you never have to worry about hosting, security or updates.
- Do you work with startups and brand new businesses?
- Constantly. A large share of our clients are startups and sole traders launching their first proper online presence, which is exactly why our pricing starts low.
- Are cheap websites bad for SEO?
- A poorly built cheap website can be slow, hard for search engines to read and frustrating for visitors. EKKO sites are affordable because we work lean, but they are still built with clean code, fast hosting, proper metadata and structured data so Google can index them properly.
