Straightforward Websites for Small Businesses.
No website yet? Got one that's seen better days? Or just want someone to keep an eye on it?
XCopp helps small businesses get a modern, useful website without the agency runaround or a load of technical jargon.
Where Are You Starting From?
You don't need to know what platform you need, what plugins you need or even exactly what's wrong. Start with where you are now.
I Don't Have a Website
Let's build your first one properly. If your business has been getting by through Facebook, Google, directories or word of mouth, XCopp can help turn what you already do into a straightforward website customers can actually use.
My Website Needs Sorting
Keep what's useful. Fix what isn't. If the website feels dated, doesn't work properly on phones, makes your services difficult to understand or simply doesn't represent the business anymore, start with a Website Reality Check.
I Need Someone to Look After It
Website Care without becoming the IT department. For suitable websites, XCopp can handle routine maintenance and keep an eye on the technical side while you get on with running the business.
Start With What's Actually Needed.
A new website isn't automatically the answer.
If you already have one, XCopp looks at the experience a real customer gets: what your business does, how easy the site is to use on a phone, whether important information is clear, whether people can contact you easily and whether anything genuinely needs fixing.
If you don't have a website yet, that's fine too. We'll look at what your business actually needs from its first one.
No scare tactics. No 100-point report designed to sell you 100 fixes.
If something is already doing its job, we'll say so.
See the Direction.
Sometimes explaining an idea isn't enough.
Where it makes sense, XCopp can put together a focused visual concept showing how your business could be presented more clearly online.
That might mean a better homepage direction, clearer services, stronger contact options or simply making the website feel like the business it represents.
A concept is a direction for the project, not a complete website being built for free.
Your First Website. Or a Better One.
There are two ways into the same build process.
First Website
You already have the business. XCopp helps give it a proper home online. A straightforward starter can be enough for a small business that mainly needs somewhere professional to explain what it does and make getting in touch easy.
Website Rebuild
Already have a website? XCopp can work out what is worth keeping and what needs changing, then rebuild around what your business needs now rather than what it needed years ago.
Small-Business Website
For businesses that need more than a single page, a typical XCopp build can include the main pages needed to explain the business, services, work and contact information clearly.
Keep the Scope Clear.
Typical small-business builds can include responsive desktop/mobile design, up to approximately five agreed core pages, service presentation, an enquiry/contact form, existing branding where suitable, customer-provided photos/content, sensible copy polishing, basic on-page SEO foundations, appropriate performance/accessibility work, contact/social/map information where useful, one consolidated revision round, QA and launch.
Need something bigger?
Shops, substantial booking systems, memberships, large migrations, major branding work, bespoke functionality, large content-entry jobs and additional development aren't quietly stuffed into a £499 website.
We'll work out what's needed and agree the price before adding it.
Know the Starting Point.
Website Reality Check
Understand what is actually needed.
Focused Concept
A direction before a full build, where appropriate.
Starter Website
A focused one-page business website.
Small-Business Website
Up to approximately five agreed core pages.
Website Rebuild
For an existing website that needs more substantial work.
Website Care
Optional ongoing care after launch, and potentially for other suitable websites.
Every business is different. You'll know the agreed scope and price before substantial work starts.
Agree It Before We Build It.
For a normal website project, we'll agree what XCopp is building and what it costs before substantial work begins.
If you ask for something significant outside the agreed project, we'll talk about it and price it separately before doing the extra work.
You Run the Business. XCopp Keeps an Eye on the Website.
Getting the website live doesn't mean you suddenly want a second career maintaining WordPress.
For suitable websites, optional XCopp Website Care can cover the routine side of keeping things looked after.
- Routine maintenance appropriate to the website
- Basic website-health oversight
- Backup oversight appropriate to the setup
- Basic uptime/security awareness
- Direct help when there's a website issue
- Up to 30 minutes of small content changes each month
Small content-change allowance does not roll over from month to month.
Bigger change?
No problem. If you need a new page, significant redesign, new functionality, shop, integration or another substantial change, XCopp can assess it separately before any extra work begins.
And Care is optional. Having XCopp build your website does not mean you have to subscribe to Website Care.
One Straightforward Route From Problem to Working Website.
What do you actually need?
See the direction.
First website or rebuild.
Optional ongoing support.
Change things when there's a reason.
No website treadmill. No rebuilding things just because somebody wants to sell you another rebuild.
Deal With the Person Working on Your Website.
XCopp is independently run by Lee.
That means you're not passed from salesperson to account manager to somebody you've never spoken to who actually builds the thing. You deal directly with the person working on your website.
The aim is simple: understand the business, explain things clearly, agree a sensible scope and build something useful.
No need to become a website expert first.
If you don't know whether you need hosting, WordPress, five pages or one page, that's fine. Tell XCopp what you're trying to achieve. We'll start there.
FAQ
I don't have a website at all. Can XCopp help?
Yes. First websites are part of XCopp Web OS. You don't need an existing site or any technical knowledge to start.
I already have a website. Does it need completely rebuilding?
Not necessarily. That's one reason the Website Reality Check comes first. If improving what you already have makes more sense than replacing it, XCopp shouldn't manufacture a rebuild.
How much will my website cost?
A focused one-page website starts from £299. Small-business websites and rebuilds start from £499. More involved requirements are quoted separately so you know what you're agreeing to before substantial work starts.
What's included in a normal small-business website?
Typically up to around five agreed core pages, responsive design, contact/enquiry functionality, sensible content presentation, basic SEO foundations, QA and launch. Exact scope is agreed for the individual project.
Do I need to supply everything?
You'll need to provide accurate information about your business and any genuine business photos, branding or material we need. XCopp can help organise and polish the website content rather than expecting you to arrive with a perfect technical brief.
Do I need to understand WordPress?
No.
Can you use AI to build my website?
XCopp uses modern tools, including AI where useful, to help research, design, build and check work efficiently. Lee remains responsible for what is actually delivered. AI output isn't treated as automatically correct.
How do payments work?
For a normal website project, the usual approach is 50% to begin and the remaining 50% after the agreed build has been reviewed, before final launch/handover. Any different arrangement is agreed beforehand.
What happens if I want extra work halfway through?
Small agreed revisions are part of the normal process. Materially new pages, functionality or changed requirements may need a separate quote. XCopp will tell you before carrying out chargeable additional work.
Do I have to take Website Care?
No. Website Care is optional.
What does Website Care include?
For suitable websites it can cover routine maintenance and checks, backup oversight, basic uptime/security awareness, support and up to 30 minutes of small content changes per month. Larger development is separate.
