The useful details

Frequently asked questions

How long does a website take?

We aim to have your first review version ready within two business days of getting started. From there, we work through your feedback and help you launch as quickly as possible.

What do I need to provide?

At minimum, just bring your ideas. We can shape the design and help turn those ideas into a complete website. A final logo, photographs, service details and business information are helpful if you already have them, but they do not need to hold up the conversation.

Who owns the website?

You own the completed website. If you ever want to move the hosting elsewhere, we will help make that straightforward wherever the technology allows.

Are domain and hosting included?

We connect your domain and help with launch. If you do not have a domain yet, we can point you in the right direction or register the domain for you at cost. Managed hosting is available through our Hosting & Care plan.

Can I update the website later?

Yes. Hosting & Care includes minor content changes each month at no extra cost. Major work is available at competitive hourly rates, with the scope agreed before work begins.

Can I make changes after I see it?

Absolutely. You will see a private review version and can tell us what you would like adjusted. We keep feedback practical and collaborative, and if an idea grows into a larger feature we will talk through the easiest way forward.

Can you build online stores or booking systems?

Yes. Tin Shed can also build ecommerce, booking systems and custom software. Tell us what you need and we will recommend the simplest suitable approach.

Will the website rank first on Google?

No one can honestly guarantee a first-place ranking. The packages provide sound technical and content foundations for search, including useful page structure and appropriate schema.

What happens after I submit an enquiry?

We will read your ideas and aim to reply within one business day. We can then talk through the easiest next step. There is no obligation and no payment is taken through the form.
