Development
A focused 3 to 5 page site in your brand, live in days with the contact form already wired.
What you get
A live three to five page website in your brand, findable on Google, with a contact form that puts every enquiry in your inbox and your CRM the moment it is sent.
An Express Website is a three to five page site, designed and branded for your business, live in days rather than months. It is fast because the structure is already decided, not because anything is quietly left out: you get the responsive pages, a contact form wired to your inbox and your CRM, analytics, and your Google Business Profile connected. It replaces the Facebook page, the broken template, or the nothing you have now with something people can find on Google and judge you by.
A systemized engagement, so the work moves fast without cutting corners.
- 01
Scope in one call
One call fixes the page list, what each page has to do, and what you already own: logo, photographs, a domain, the service list. Anything missing goes on a short checklist with a date against it. We settle the tier on that call too, because five pages either cover your business or they do not.
- 02
Structure and copy
We fit your business into a page structure built for small service businesses: what sits above the fold, the order of the sections, where the form goes. Then we write the copy against it. You read real sentences about your own business rather than placeholder text, and you correct anything wrong.
- 03
Design in your brand
Your logo, colors, and type go across every screen. We design the phone layout first, because the phone screen is the tighter constraint, and the desktop layout second. You see the actual pages on a real link you can send to anyone whose opinion you want, not a mood board.
- 04
Wiring and setup
The contact form gets connected to your inbox and your CRM, then tested with a live submission so you watch one land. Google Analytics and Search Console go on. Your Google Business Profile is linked to the site, and SSL and hosting are configured. On-page SEO goes in as we build.
- 05
Revisions and handover
You get one round of revisions, gathered as a single list: text edits, image swaps, section order. We work through it, test on phones, tablets, and desktop, point your domain, submit the sitemap, and publish. Every account is registered in your name, and you leave with the logins and no lock-in.
Everything you walk away with, owned by you with no lock-in.
- A live three to five page website: home, about, services, contact, and one more page you choose.
- Your brand applied across every page, from the logo and colors down to type and image treatment.
- A mobile-first responsive build, checked on real phones and tablets rather than only a desktop screen.
- A contact form wired to your inbox and your CRM, tested with a live submission before launch.
- Google Analytics and Search Console installed and verified, with your sitemap submitted to Google.
- Your Google Business Profile connected to the site, so local searchers land somewhere real.
- An on-page SEO baseline: page titles, descriptions, headings, image alt text, and clean markup.
- SSL, hosting, and your domain configured, so the site runs secure on your own address.
- One round of revisions, then a handover with every login in your name and no lock-in.
The things buyers ask us before they start.
What is an Express Website?+
An Express Website is a three to five page site, designed around your logo, colors, and type, that goes live in days instead of months. It covers what a small business needs to look credible and be found: home, about, services, contact, and one more page of your choosing. We build it on a structure we have shipped before rather than inventing one for you, so the only open variable left is your content.
Should I choose the Express Website or the Corporate Website?+
Choose Express if three to five pages cover what you do and you need to be live soon. Choose the Corporate Website tier if you need more pages than that, a page for each service, a reusable component system your team can extend, or custom functionality. The deciding question is whether anyone at your company will be adding pages regularly. If you can name your pages on one hand, Express is your tier.
Does building a website in days mean cutting corners?+
No. The speed comes from a structure decided before the project starts and a scope fixed on the first call, not from dropping the responsive build, the working contact form, the analytics, or the SEO basics. Those are all in. What is genuinely left out is named on this page rather than discovered three weeks after launch.
What is not included in an Express Website?+
Custom illustration and photography, a blog or CMS you edit at scale, e-commerce, extra languages, custom integrations, and ongoing SEO all sit outside this tier. Each one is either part of the Corporate Website build or its own HiKit service. We name them here on purpose, because an entry-tier build that quietly grows a checkout stops being an entry-tier build.
Why not just build it myself on a website builder?+
You can. For some businesses that is the right answer. The difference is what a builder costs you in evenings, in template choices you are not equipped to make, and in a site that reads like the template it came from. We take the structure, the words, the brand, and the Google setup off your desk. You spend those evenings running the business.
Will people actually find the site on Google?+
They will be able to. Search Console, a submitted sitemap, clean page titles and headings, and your Google Business Profile linked to the site are all part of the build, and that combination is what makes you findable for your own name and for local searches. Outranking established competitors on competitive terms is a longer job that belongs to an SEO retainer.
