Including us. The left column is what's common in the pay-monthly website market — taken from published terms, not invented. The right column is what we do, all of which is in our own terms and which you can hold us to.
Plans start at £25 a month. Every claim in the Staie column is in our published terms, and the domain question is covered in detail on our domain and DNS page.
“Staie has been great, it’s such a simple process from start to finish. The questionnaire really let me share my vision and the way it’s used to build my site gave me exactly what I wanted. I love it!”
“The whole process of working with Joseph at Staie has been brilliant – from the initial conversation, to the briefing of my vision, to the pricing model, to the editing process, and ultimately to the end result – which is a beautiful website I’m absolutely delighted with. From start to finish the whole process has taken a week. I couldn’t have asked for more. I would highly recommend Joseph / Staie.”
“Staie built our new website for the company I work for it was seamless from beginning to end any adjustments we wanted made they did it promptly and they are very reasonably priced compared to some companies would highly recommend using Staie”
For a lot of small businesses, a £3,000 website is the same brochure site with a bigger invoice attached. Where the money genuinely buys you something is on complex builds — shops, booking systems, integrations — which is why we quote those separately rather than pretending £25 covers everything.
That we're betting you'll stay. We carry the build cost, so we only make money if you're happy enough to keep paying month after month. That's the whole model, and it's why we'd rather show you the site than sell you on a call.
Read their terms and search for the words "ownership", "transfer", "minimum term" and "fee". Look up their company number on Companies House. Check who the registrant is on a WHOIS lookup. Five minutes of that tells you more than any sales page, ours included.
Don't take our word for it — everything in our column is in our published terms, and every claim about our own service is one you can hold us to in writing. The left-hand column describes practices that are common in this market, not any single named company.
