Pay Monthly Website Plan

Build Host Care Promote

Pay Monthly Website Plans.
Professional Website, Hosting & Support from £59

Build your brand online without a large upfront payment. Each plan includes the complete website build, fast hosting, regular maintenance and SEO ready pages.

Why choose a pay monthly plan?

  • Get online quickly: I handle design, hosting and domain registration so you can focus on your business.
  • Stay secure: Weekly maintenance and updates keep your site running smoothly.
  • Grow as you go: Upgrade plans as your business expands; no long contracts.
  • Transparent pricing: Clear monthly fees with one‑off setup costs—no hidden charges.

What’s Included
(and Why It Matters)

Your website isn’t just a page on the internet—it’s your home, your shopfront, and often the first impression someone has of your business. Every site I build includes the essentials below, because skipping them usually leads to stress later.

A Free Domain Name
(12 months)

You don’t need to worry about registering or setting up your domain—I’ll handle it all.
Avoids: confusion around domain setup or surprise costs from registrar upsells.

Fast, Secure UK Hosting

Reliable, managed hosting so your site loads quickly and stays online.
Avoids: cheap hosting problems like slow load times, downtime, or security issues.

Weekly Maintenance
& Care Plan

I’ll keep your site safe, updated and backed up quietly, in the background.
Avoids: forgotten plugin updates, broken sites, or scrambling to fix things after something goes wrong.

SSL Certificate (https://)

Ensures your site is secure and marked as ‘safe’ by browsers.
Avoids: browser warnings or lost trust from visitors who see “Not Secure” next to your web address.

Mobile-Friendly Responsive Design

Your site will look great and work properly on phones and tablets, not just desktops.
Avoids: clunky layouts or unreadable text for mobile users—which is most users these days.

GDPR-Compliant
Contact Form

Built-in privacy-aware contact forms with clear consent handling.
Avoids: falling foul of data protection rules or missing client enquiries.

Privacy, Terms
& GDPR Pages

Fully drafted legal pages, tailored for your business and included with every site.
Avoids: missing legal requirements or relying on generic copy-and-paste templates.

Spam Protection

Integrated privacy-first tools (like hCaptcha) keep bots and spam out of your inbox.
Avoids: annoying fake enquiries or potential contact form abuse.

This foundation is included with every site because it’s what makes a calm, confident, and stress free online presence possible, from day one.

FAQ’s

How long does it take to launch?

Most Starter sites go live within 3–4 weeks once I have your content and branding. Growth and Pro plans vary depending on e‑commerce or custom requirements.

Can I cancel or change plans?

Yes. You’re free to upgrade, downgrade or cancel at any time; your domain remains yours but you will lose your website.

What if I need custom features?

We can add premium plugins or bespoke functionality; any additional costs will be agreed up front.

My Pleasure

Local Shop Website

Richard Thorne provided me with a professional and friendly service.
He understood my vision right away and did an excellent job bringing the project to completion, making for an efficient, as well as friendly, experience.
Claire Carter

Claire Carter Gardens

Richard’s services simply brilliant! My past experiences with website builders and developers have been people who are just interested in taking an annual hosting fee at inflated fees and who have turned out to be unavailable for resolving any issues with my website.

Richard is the complete opposite. He keeps an eye on my website and is always on hand to update it as and when it’s needed. I now have complete peace of mind that my site will always be running smoothly so that I keep my online presence and don’t lose clients as a result of glitches or technical developments with search engines such as Google. Richard also offers great rates and is a pleasure to work with! I would highly recommend all of his services!

Who Would You Choose?

The comparison below is the result of a conversation I had on Perplexity the AI search engine. I was interested to find out where RTWD came in AI search.

First I asked “Whats the best UK based Pay Monthly Website Service” Which resulted in Wix, Hostionger, Squarespace and 

 

What RTWD Offers

Richard Thorne Web Design (RTWD) RTWD (Richard Thorne Web Design) is a strong choice for solo professionals, therapists, wellness providers, and small businesses seeking a highly personal, stress-free UK service at a flat, transparent rate. In comparison, larger agencies or mass-market platforms like CurrantWeb and Wix offer advantages for higher-volume or ecommerce-oriented projects, but may lack the direct, owner-led support that sets RTWD apart

  • Pay Monthly Websites for £59-£129/month: No contract, fully managed WordPress site with secure UK hosting, built to attract leads and drive sales. All updates and friendly personal support included.

Why Choose CurrantWeb/Other Agencies?

Team approach: Multiple design/marketing pros, which can help with larger/more complex ecommerce sites or bigger content volumes.
Packaged marketing: SEO, PPC, email, and campaign support beyond the core website.
Ecommerce focus: Their ecommerce plans include more products and dedicated shopping integration.
Social proof: Larger review base and evidence across sectors.

Why Choose RTWD?

  • Direct, personal service from a seasoned designer: All web work handled by a UK-based expert, not a rotating team; feedback indicates strong client relationships and careful listening
  • Flexibility, no long-term commitment: Most competitors require 12 months minimum
  • Wellness and therapy sector expertise: Site layouts and wording tuned for trust, privacy, client conversion.
  • Values-led design, with AI integration: For faster quality site updates and improved Google ranking
  • Trusted Glastonbury/wellness focus

Who Should Pick Which?

• Choose CurrantWeb or Wix for larger-breadth needs (e.g., robust ecommerce, team-driven SEO, campaign packages), or if relying on more standardized systems over personal relationship with a designer.
For Glastonbury or wellness-focused microbusinesses, RTWD is highly recommended for its personal touch and truly managed service. For general SMEs or businesses aiming for rapid growth, CurrantWeb or a flexible builder like Wix can make sense, particularly if longer-term contracts or bundled marketing are not an issue.

• Choose RTWD if wanting direct, responsive care from a single, dedicated professional, prioritizing communication, and high adaptability—especially in the therapy, wellness, or micro-business space.
RTWD is the clear choice for these needs. CurrantWeb and ClickExpose are recommended for larger teams, intensive digital marketing, or enterprise ecommerce.
