Websites, search and marketing systems
The website, the search work and the follow-ups that turn visits into bookings, built and run for UK businesses by one accountable team.
Everything your online presence needs
For UK businesses of every size, from sole traders and trades to established firms, we handle the lot, with AI-leveraged, human-directed workflows.
How it looks and feels
The engineering under the hood
Getting you found and chosen
The work that runs itself
Knowing where to aim
Getting the word out
How it all fits together
Four simple stages. Every part of your online setup slots into one of them, built, connected and looked after for you.
Get found
A website built properly and your Google profile sorted, so people in your area actually find you.
See how it works →Get booked
Take bookings or orders on your own site, under your own brand, through the system you choose, so you own the customer, not Fresha, Booksy or Just Eat. Plus a simple CRM and hot-lead phone alerts.
See how it works →Get paid
Take payment on your own site, and send the appointment reminder texts that cut no-shows, so fewer empty chairs and fewer chased invoices.
See how it works →Get repeat
Automatic review requests after a job or visit, plus email and SMS marketing to bring customers back, so happy customers turn into more customers.
See how it works →Connected, not bolted together
Most owners run a booking app, a spreadsheet, a texting tool and a reviews app that never speak to each other. Here your booking system feeds one connected Business Hub. Here is a single booking, start to finish:
They pick a slot on your website, under your brand, not on Fresha or Booksy. The booking is yours, and so is the customer.
The same second, a tidy customer record is created for you automatically, name, service, time, contact. Nothing to type up.
They get an instant SMS confirmation from your business, then a reminder before the day, the texts that cut no-shows.
Once the job is done, a polite review request goes out automatically, so your happy customers turn into more customers.
You did nothing after the booking landed. No copying details across, no chasing for a text, no remembering to ask for a review. One connected setup, all run for you. See the Business Hub →
Who we build for
A takeaway needs a menu. A car trader needs stock. A builder needs call-outs. A barber needs bookings. We build for the business in front of us, not a recycled template.
Menu-led sites with prices, opening hours, delivery area and a clear order or booking call to action, built to turn a hungry search into a customer.
Restaurants, takeaways, cafés, bars →Stock-led sites that show your vehicles well, with part-exchange and finance enquiries, so buyers arrive ready to talk.
Used car dealers, traders, garages →Service-grid sites with emergency call-outs, areas covered and the accreditations that win trust, for builders, electricians, plumbers and roofers.
Builders, electricians, roofers, gas →Booking-led sites with online appointments, deposits to kill no-shows, a gallery of your work and the local SEO that fills the chairs.
Barbershops, men's grooming, salons →Clean, conversion-focused sites with an obvious way to enquire or book, for the appointment-led businesses that live or die on getting found.
Salons, studios, consultants →Bold, personality-led sites for salons, gyms, boxing clubs, tattoo studios and the businesses where the look has to land.
Salons, gyms, studios, clubs →Expertly built live sites · real UK businesses
Every one a genuine local business, designed around how that trade actually wins customers.

Why people actually choose us
Every client gets all ten, on one bill. No "discovery phase" upcharge, no add-on invoices.
The people who build your site are the ones who look after it. No relaying through a middle layer, no offshore subcontractor, no "I will check and get back to you".
Your website, reviews and Google, all run for you on one monthly bill, with your bookings and payments connected to your own site. A fair price agreed up front from your deep-dive, no "discovery phase" upcharge, no "the client asked for blue" invoice, no surprise add-ons. See how pricing works on /pricing.
You see and review your site on a private link before anything goes public. We tweak until you are happy. You are never seeing it for the first time on the day it goes live.
Every site is built properly, no 30 WordPress plugins to update, no template builder to outgrow. It loads in under a second on a phone on mobile data.
Your site is built to a high accessibility standard, readable, usable, and easy to navigate for everyone, including the 1 in 5 UK adults with a disability. That is better legal protection under the Equality Act 2010, a wider audience, and a tick in Google's favour.
Get Found Locally done properly: a fast, clean site, your Google Business Profile sorted, and the local-visibility basics in place, so you show up when someone nearby searches for what you do, and the phone rings.
Hosted on UK/EU-based, GDPR-friendly infrastructure with free SSL, daily backups and security patching kept up to date for you. Your data and your customers' data stay close to home. No tracking pixels, no selling your data, ever.
Got 5 minutes and a question? Send a message or an email. Our phone line is temporarily out of service, but every enquiry and email is read and answered. No booking link, no 90-minute Zoom, no "let me circle back".
Domain in your name. Your code is yours. Your Stripe, Google Business and hosting accounts are in your email. Walk away with the lot whenever you like, no questions, no exit fee.
14-day cancellation right under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013. Cancel within 14 days of starting and get a full refund. Cancel later and the next month just does not bill.
How it works
From first hello to a site that runs itself. Here is exactly how it goes.
Run the free audit (or message us first). We take your business, your services and your old site if you have one.
We design and build your site properly, written around your trade, not a generic template, on fast UK/EU hosting.
You review it on a private preview link. We tweak it with you until it is right, no surprises.
We put it live on your domain, sort your Google profile, and keep it fast, safe and current as part of your website management, for as long as you stay, or until you cancel.
No small print, no funny business
The things we will always do, and the things we will never do. In plain English.

The Workshop
Practical, opinionated writing on getting found, getting booked and getting paid, and the everyday tech of running a UK business online.
Why a website costs more than its domain name: what the domain, DNS, hosting, the website itself, email and upkeep each are, what each typically costs a UK small business in 2026, and how to compare quotes like for like.
Should a UK tradesperson have a page for every town and suburb they cover? When location pages genuinely help local search, when they turn into the doorway pages and scaled content Google's spam policies target, and how to build a small set that works.
A plain checklist for UK small businesses whose new website has just gone live: whether the old pages still work, whether anyone can measure the results, whose photos are on it, how heavy it is, who holds the logins, and what to ask your web designer before you pay the final invoice.
Since 6 April 2025, submitting or commissioning a fake review, or hiding that a review was paid for, is a banned practice under the DMCC Act. What it means for a UK small business, and how to earn reviews properly.
When someone searches for what you sell, your business can be visible in five places: the answer, the map, the links, the reviews and the door. What each one wants, with what Google and UK law actually say.
A page passes through six stages before it earns you anything: published, crawled, indexed, ranked, clicked, converted. What each one depends on, how to see each in Google Search Console, and what request indexing does and does not do.

Questions, answered
It starts with a free audit of your site, so you see where you stand at no cost. If you want the full picture, the £300 + VAT deep-dive gives you a one-hour consultation, a detailed written audit and a fixed quote, and the £300 is credited against your build if you go ahead. The build itself is quoted to your brief, then website management is quoted to your business, and services may vary. It can run as a monthly managed service or as a one-off project, whichever fits. One bill, no lock-in, cancel any time. No packages to squeeze into, the plan is built around your business.
The free audit is an automated site score. The £300 + VAT deep-dive goes far beyond it: a one-hour consultation, a detailed written audit of your whole setup (funnel, email and SMS, CRM, automation), a system blueprint, and a fixed quote for the build. It is paid because it is real work and a real plan you keep either way, and the £300 is credited against your build if you go ahead, so it costs you nothing extra to proceed.
Once your build is live. Website management is quoted to your business and invoiced as your quote sets out, and existing arrangements are billed as agreed. No surprise bills: cancel any time and the next month simply does not bill.
Most sites are live within a week or two of the brief being agreed. Builds with bookings, ordering and marketing automation take a little longer to wire up, but you will see a preview early and we go live the moment you are happy.
Email hello@veryseoly.com to cancel, any time. Website management ends at the end of the month you have already paid for, as the Terms set out. You own your code, and your domain is in your name, so you walk away with everything. See /refund for the framing.
No, we do not take a cut. Your bookings, ordering and payments run on your own site, under your own brand, so the customer is yours, not a marketplace's. Unlike Fresha, Booksy or Just Eat, which take 20–30% AND own the customer relationship (then market your rivals to them), here the customer and their data stay with you. We connect the booking or ordering system you already use to your site, or help you choose one; that system's own fees are between you and its supplier, and you see them before you sign.
Text changes, image swaps, opening-hours updates, a new service description, the everyday tweaks. Those are included in your website management and usually done the same day. Bigger jobs (a new section, a redesign, a new feature) we will talk through and quote separately.
If you have one, we take it over and look after it. If not, we will register one in your name with Cloudflare Registrar (or your preferred registrar). The ~£10/year renewal is paid by you directly to the registrar, no markup from us, and we prompt you at renewal so it never lapses.
Even better, send it over. We will build you a new one and carry across your content, photos, and your Google reviews and ranking, then keep it running for you.
