Professional websites for independent businesses
We create professional websites for independent businesses that want to build trust, generate enquiries and make it easier for customers to choose them.
Clear pricing. Personal service. Built around your business.
The situation
Most independent businesses do excellent work in person and lose ground online. The gap is rarely effort — it is a website that was never set up to carry its share.
If more than one of these sounds familiar, that is usually enough reason to have a conversation.
Outcomes
Not features. The practical differences a considered website makes to how your business is seen and how your week runs.
A considered website tells people your business is established, careful and worth choosing before they walk through the door.
Clear information and an obvious next step turn more visitors into calls, messages and bookings.
Fewer steps between interest and a confirmed appointment, using established booking platforms.
When hours, prices and services are easy to find, you spend less of your day answering the same questions.
Who we work with
We create clear, professional websites for established local businesses that rely on trust, enquiries, appointments and repeat customers.
Services, stylists and a booking route that works on a phone.
Walk-in details, prices and directions, clear at a glance.
Treatment menus and appointments presented simply.
Menus, hours and location that stay current.
Timetables, memberships and a low-friction first session.
Services, coverage and an easy way to request a quote.
These are the sectors Local Standard is built for, not a list of completed projects.

Inclusions
The same standard applies whichever package you choose. Anything beyond this is agreed before work begins.
Designed for a phone first, then scaled up. Fast, legible and easy to use on the device most of your customers hold.
Services, hours, location and prices presented plainly, so nobody has to hunt for the basics.
An obvious next step on every page, connected to established third-party booking and payment platforms.
Sensible page titles, descriptions, headings and image text so your business can be found and shared properly.
Readable contrast, keyboard-friendly controls and clear focus states, so the site works for everyone.
We handle the technical side of going live and hosting setup as agreed, and stay with you through launch.
Approach
A short, clear process with no surprises. You see the work at each stage before it moves on.
01
We talk about the business, your customers and what the website actually needs to do. No jargon, no pitch deck.
02
We agree the pages, the order of information and the words, working from what you already have.
03
The site is designed and built mobile-first, then reviewed together against what we agreed.
04
We handle the technical side of going live, with hosting and domain arrangements agreed in advance.
05
If you want it, we keep the site maintained and up to date so you can get on with running the business.
Pricing
Every price is a starting point. Final cost depends on the scope we agree together, and is confirmed in writing before any work begins.
From £499
A professionally tailored brochure website for businesses that need a credible, mobile-friendly presence.
From £799
A more complete website with stronger content structure and a more developed customer journey.
From £49 / month
Ongoing website management for owners who would rather not think about it.
Booking and payments are handled through established third-party platforms rather than custom software. Anything outside the agreed scope is quoted separately.
Why Local Standard
We do one thing: professional websites for independent businesses. That is the whole offer.
Salons, barbers, cafés, gyms and other local services. Not enterprise software, not startups.
No account managers or handovers. The person you speak to is the person doing the work.
Clear information, calm design and pages that load quickly. Nothing added for the sake of it.
A website is not finished on launch day. Ongoing care is available for as long as you need it.
