The problem, across the islands
People here want to buy local. Most of the time they can’t work out how.
No opening times anywhere. No prices. The phone rings out. The last post was years ago. So the money goes to a company across the water instead — not because anyone preferred it, but because that one was easier to buy from.
- 84%1of consumers looked online for a local business in the last three months, and over half started on Google.
- 46%2of Jersey businesses say staff and skills shortages hold them back most — more than regulation (27%) or lack of demand (24%).
- 0.8%3of Guernsey’s workforce was out of work in September 2024 — 241 people. Fewer people, the same work.
- ~2 hours4a day, per person, is unproductive — about 24% of the working day. And 58% of businesses say they haven’t got the tools or framework to build a productivity strategy.

A website doesn’t fix a hiring problem. But when the path from I need something to I found someone I trust is broken, every enquiry that never arrives is work you were never given the chance to win — and you never even see it happen.

Maximum 2 builds at a timeI keep it focused to protect timeline and quality.What you actually own
You own it. All of it.
On full payment you own 100% of the code, the content and the design. Third-party components keep their own licences, and my built-in standards (Shapeshifter, Sentinel and Charter) stay mine, licensed to you perpetually and free. The stack is modern and mainstream, so another developer could take it over tomorrow. No lock-in is the point.
The source codeReadable, documented, and handed over — not rented back to you.
The domain and the dataYour domain is in your name from day one. Enquiries your site collects are yours, exportable, always.
The freedom to moveA modern, mainstream stack another developer can take over tomorrow. No proprietary trap, no exit fee.
And if you leave?
- You take the source, the domain and the data with you, and someone else picks it up.
- That is the deal, written into the handover notes and the Build Receipt on day one — not something you have to negotiate later.

I don’t just build what you ask for — I think through what it should become. The industry sells the rest as extras, add-ons, and monthly plans. Here it all ships with every website build, restated in every quote, so it’s never a surprise.

How it actually goes
No surprises. Written down before it starts.
You always know what is being built, what it costs and what happens next, because it is in writing before any money moves.
- Before any money movesYou tell me the outcomeNot a spec. What the business needs to happen. I come back with the smallest build that genuinely does it, and say so if a website is already enough.
- A written quote, before anythingExactly what will be built, from the public price list for commercial work, with a realistic date rather than an optimistic one. Nothing starts until you have read it.
- The buildPayment 1 of 250% to startAn invoice for professional work — briefing, research, planning and early build. Anything over £2,500 runs on milestones instead, so no single payment carries the whole job.
- You approve the designYou see it before it is built out, and one revision round is included. Further rounds are quoted in writing, never billed as a surprise.
- Payment 2 of 250% before launch, then it goes liveDeployment, SSL and your domain connected. Two builds run at a time, deliberately, so yours is not queued behind eight others.
- YoursHandover, and it is yoursSource code, handover notes and a Build Receipt in writing. From that day another developer can pick it up, and you can move it anywhere.
What you provideYour words, your pictures and your decisions. If you haven’t got the words, I write a draft and you correct it — that is usually faster than a blank page.
What you never doChase me for a status, or find out the price after the work.
Before you ask
The questions people actually ask.
Do I actually own it, or am I renting?
You own it. On full payment you own 100% of the code, the content and the design. Third-party components keep their own licences — the open-source libraries, and any stock photography or licensed fonts used in your design. The three standards we build into every site — Shapeshifter, Sentinel and Charter — stay ours, and you get a perpetual licence at no further cost to keep using them in your site for as long as it exists, including if you move to another developer or sell the business. The stack is modern and mainstream, so another developer could take it over tomorrow. No lock-in is the point.
What does it really cost, including the bits people hide?
Websites from £750, Windows apps from £750, mobile app prototypes from £1,500. Hosting setup is £150 one-off. After that hosting is Care at £49/month or Care+ at £99/month — or you host it yourself and pay me nothing. Your domain is bought in your name and renews to you. Every build gets a written quote before anything begins.
Is this made by AI?
It is built by one person, using tools, the way any modern studio works. A human decides everything, reviews everything and is accountable for everything. Nothing ships unsupervised, and you always have a person to talk to.
Tell me the outcome.
I’ll come back with the smallest build that genuinely does it. A website may be enough — I’ll only recommend a larger system when your goals, data and workflows make it necessary.
