Websites for small businesses, built in Stockport.

A site that makes it clear what you do and easy for people to get in touch. I build them for small businesses across Greater Manchester, and further afield by phone and email.

Fixed prices from £500. Nothing monthly.

Quoted before I start. The domain, hosting and code end up in your name. Work out a rough price.

Already have a website? I rebuild and move existing ones too.

A WordPress site on hosting that was about to be switched off, rebuilt as a fast static site with an editor, and moved onto accounts in his own name.

Launched September 2026.

What every site comes with

The price you are quoted is the price you pay, and everything is set up in your name.

  • Built for phones first

    Most of your visitors are on a phone. Every page is designed for a small screen, then widened for a desk.

  • Enquiries that reach you

    A contact form that lands in your inbox, a WhatsApp button, and a tap to call number.

  • Set up for Google search

    Titles and descriptions written for search, a Business Profile that matches, and pages that load fast.

  • Yours, outright

    Domain and hosting in your name from day one, and the site is yours once it is paid for. Hosting for a normal site costs nothing.

Everything that's included

How it works

Half to book, half at launch, nothing monthly. If you never need me again after that, the job went well.

  1. Get a quote

    Twenty minutes on the phone, or a coffee in Stockport, then a fixed price in writing. The deposit books your start date.

  2. The build

    I send the page by page list, which asks for the text and photos each page needs, and build the site from your answers.

  3. Check it and go live

    You try the first version on a private link, then after your rounds of changes, the domain, email and hosting go live in your name.

How a build runs, step by step

He also made sure that all the important accounts are in my own name, so I retain complete ownership and control of the website.

Who you would be working with

Martin Lister

I am Martin. I build websites for small businesses across Greater Manchester. You get the same person for the quote, the build and the support afterwards. There is no account manager and nothing gets passed to anyone else.

More about me

Free website check

Send me your web address and I will check it the same way I check my own sites. Within three working days you get a short report back: a score out of 100 from my own checks, what is working, and the three things I would fix first.

It is free. It is also how I find new clients, so I will mention once that I can do the fixes. If you do not reply, you will not hear from me again.

Who I build for

Small businesses of every kind. These three have a page of their own.

  • Tradespeople

    Tap to call, the areas you cover, photos of your own jobs and registrations a customer can check.

  • Therapists and counsellors

    Booking with Business, care with what people send you, your register shown, and no promises about results.

  • Cafes

    Opening hours, the menu as a real page, how to find you and photos of the place.
