Taking on a handful of new previews this month

See your finished website before you pay a cent.

We build websites for Cape Town businesses that don't have one — and rebuild the ones that are quietly driving customers away. Yours gets built first, free, as a real working site you can open on your phone. Love it? It's live in five working days. Don't? You've lost two minutes.

No deposit — you look first 5 working days to live No contract — the site is yours
Already have a website?

Put your site to the test. Right now.

Type your address below and we'll run the checks your customers run without even knowing it — live, free, about twenty seconds.

Seven live checks — you'll see the three that matter most.

  • Does it load in under three seconds on mobile data?
  • Do the links all still work?
  • Is there a padlock — or a "Not secure" warning?
  • Does the information look current?
  • Could a stranger tell what you do, and where, in ten seconds?
  • Does it display properly on a phone?
  • Is it easy to reach you — tap-to-call or WhatsApp?

A site that fails these doesn't read as "busy" — it reads as "maybe closed". We'll rebuild yours free as a preview. You compare it to what you've got, side by side, and you only pay if the new one wins.

What's happening right now

You're losing work you'll never hear about.

Not to a better business. To one that's easier to find — and easier to trust.

01

Someone recommends you

A neighbour, a WhatsApp group, a colleague. Your name comes up. Good — that's the hard part done.

02

They Google you

And they find a Facebook page last updated in 2021, a website with broken links and prices from three years back — or nothing at all.

03

They call someone else

The next result has photos, hours, service areas and a contact form. Same job, same suburb. You never find out it happened.

What you get

A site built to get enquiries.
Not to win design awards.

Every build includes all of it. No bronze, silver and gold — one complete site, done properly.

A complete site, not a placeholder

What you do, who you serve, proof you've done it, the areas you cover, and how to reach you.

Fast on a phone

Most of your visitors are on mobile data. The site loads in under two seconds or it isn't finished.

Enquiry form straight to your inbox

No dashboard to log into, no app to check. The enquiry arrives as an email.

A WhatsApp button

Because that's how South Africans actually make contact. One tap, message pre-written.

Google Business Profile set up

Claimed, filled in properly and linked to the site, so you show up on Maps as well as search.

Written the way people search

"Electrician Table View" — not "premier solutions provider". Plain words, real suburbs.

Domain, hosting and SSL handled

The padlock, the renewals, the technical parts. You never touch a control panel.

Photos sorted out

Send what you have from your phone. We crop, compress and place them so the site stays quick.

Backed up and watched

Daily backups and uptime monitoring. If it goes down at two in the morning, we know before you do.

No lock-in

No contract. Thirty days' notice and the files and the domain are yours to take anywhere.

Proof, not promises

Don't take our word for it — go poke at one.

West Coast Electric is a real site we built for a real Bloubergstrand business. Your preview arrives at the same standard.

Electrical · Bloubergstrand

West Coast Electric

Callback form, WhatsApp fallback, service areas written the way people actually search. While you're there:

  • Time how fast it opens on mobile data
  • Tap the WhatsApp button — the message is pre-written
  • Check you can tell what they do, and where, inside ten seconds

No surprises

What happens after you hit send.

Every step, in order — including the ones where you do nothing.

WITHIN ONE WORKING DAY

A person replies

We come back with a question or two — or, if it's not a fit, we say so straight away instead of stringing you along.

WITHIN A FEW DAYS

Your preview link

A real website on a temporary address — plus a plain-language note on what's broken or missing in your presence today. Open it on your phone, pick holes in it.

NO DEADLINE

You decide

Changes are part of the deal, not an extra. And if you'd rather walk away, just ignore the message — there's no follow-up campaign.

FIVE DAYS FROM 'GO'

You're live

Domain, hosting, Google Business Profile, enquiry form — live and taking enquiries in five working days.

What we won't do: Phone you over and over Add you to a mailing list Ask for card details Hold your domain hostage
Straight answers

The questions everyone asks.

What's the catch?

The catch is ours, not yours. We spend real hours building your preview knowing you might walk away. We carry that because most people who see their finished website want it live — and because one good site in a suburb tends to bring us the neighbours. If you take the preview and vanish, that's our cost of doing business.

What will it cost me?

You'll have the exact price in writing when your preview arrives: a once-off amount for the build, and a small monthly amount that covers hosting, your domain and ongoing changes. The number is fixed before you decide and doesn't creep afterwards. We'd rather you judge the site first and the price second — which is why the price isn't the headline here.

I already have a website. Why would I need you?

If it's working — fast on a phone, everything clicks, enquiries arriving — you don't. But run the live check at the top of this page. A site with broken links, old prices or a security warning isn't neutral: it quietly costs you the customers who do find you. We'll build the replacement free, so you can compare the two side by side before spending anything.

Do you fix existing sites, or only build new ones?

We rebuild rather than patch. Untangling an old site usually takes longer than building a clean one — and you'd still be standing on the old foundations. Your domain and email stay exactly as they are, and nothing switches over until you say go.

Do I actually own the site?

Yes. The domain is registered in your name and the site is yours. If you ever want to leave, give 30 days' notice and we hand over the files and the domain. No hostage-taking.

What if I don't like the preview?

Then you've lost nothing. You haven't paid, signed or committed to anything. We'd rather build something you don't want than pitch you something that doesn't exist.

I've got a Facebook page. Isn't that enough?

It helps, but you don't own it, you can't control what's shown next to it, and it rarely ranks for the searches that matter — "plumber Milnerton", "vet near me". A Facebook page also can't take an enquiry and email it to you while you're on a job.

What happens once the site is live?

We keep it running — hosting, SSL certificate, domain renewal, daily backups and uptime monitoring — and we handle your content changes. New photos, changed hours, a new service. Send them on WhatsApp.

What if I already have a domain?

We point it at the new site and nothing about your email changes. If you're running email on that domain, say so upfront — we'll carry the mail records across so nothing breaks.

Five days really?

Five working days from the moment you approve and send photos and copy details. The delay is almost never on our side — it's usually waiting for photos.

Do you only work in Cape Town?

It's where we're based and where we know the suburbs, which matters for local search. We build elsewhere in South Africa too — the process is identical, it's just done over WhatsApp and email rather than over coffee.

Start here

Let's build yours.

Tell us what the business does and where it works — that's all we need to start. The next thing you'll get is a reply from a person, then a link to your own website.

No deposit, no card details, nobody phoning you twice a week. If it's not a fit, we'll say so within a day.
