Affordable Small Business Web Design in Cornwall
From £900, including hosting and support, built to get you more enquiries, not just look pretty.
Websites for Cornwall Small Businesses
I have worked with small businesses and sole traders across Cornwall, trades in Liskeard and Bodmin, cafés in Truro and Falmouth, small shops in St Austell, holiday lets near Newquay, and services in Penzance and Launceston.
Trades
Plumbers, electricians, builders, roofers, gardeners and other trades in places like Liskeard, Bodmin, St Austell and Launceston who need something better than a Facebook page and a faded van sign.
Local services
Cleaners, therapists, hairdressers, cafés and small shops across Truro, Falmouth, Penzance and beyond who want something simple that actually brings in calls and enquiries.
One‑person professionals
Consultants, coaches, photographers, designers and other creatives who need a clean brochure site to explain what they do and give people a clear next step.
Why work with me
I'm based in Cornwall, so you get a human, not a ticket system. I quote a fixed price with no surprise extras, and I build sites that are meant to get you calls and enquiries, not just look good. If you already have a site, I'll tell you whether to fix it or bin it before you spend.
Who's building your website?
I'm Paul George, a website specialist with over 20 years of experience, currently Senior Frontend Developer at Nurtur Ltd.
I build and rescue websites for small businesses and the property sector, from local trades in Cornwall to high‑traffic estate agency platforms.
Based in Cornwall, UK. No offshore teams, no sales pitch.
What you get
A small, focused site that explains what you do, where you work in Cornwall, and how people can contact or book you. No jargon, no mystery packages.
3–8 page brochure site
A straightforward structure: Home, Services, About, Contact, plus FAQ if it makes sense. Enough to look credible and answer questions. No blogs or extras you’ll never have time to use.
Right tech, no forced platform
I don’t force WordPress on you. I build lean, often with modern code, so your site is fast and maintainable. If you need a CMS, we can do that; if you’d rather just get updates from me when you need them, that’s fine too.
Fast, mobile‑first and Google‑friendly
Built the way I build everything: lean, performance‑first, no plugin bloat. It should load quickly on a ropey 4G signal in a car park outside Newquay, not just on fibre in central Truro.
Local SEO baked in
Titles, meta descriptions, headings and on‑page copy set up properly from day one so you can show up for “near me” style searches in the bits of Cornwall you actually serve, whether that’s Liskeard, Truro, Falmouth, Newquay or beyond.
Forms, calls and maps wired up
Contact forms that deliver to your inbox, click‑to‑call buttons on mobile, and Google Maps so people can actually find you when they’re nearby.
Straight, honest advice
If you already have a site, I’ll tell you honestly whether to fix it or bin it before you spend money on a rebuild. I do audits as well as builds.

A simple website process for Cornwall startups
Step 1 – Short call or email
You tell me what you do, where you work in Cornwall, and what you need the site to do: calls, enquiries, bookings, or all three.
Step 2 – I sketch the structure
I map out the pages, key messages and a simple layout so visitors can land, understand what you do and take the next step in seconds.
Step 3 – Build and review
I put the site together, you see it on a private link and we tweak wording, images and any rough edges together.
Step 4 – Launch and hand‑over
I put it live on your domain, wire up analytics and hand over. If you want to edit content yourself, we can set that up – but in practice most small business owners don’t have the time. I’m happy to do ad‑hoc updates when you need them.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you sort my domain and email?
Yes. I can help you register or transfer a domain, point it at the new site, and set up sensible email (e.g. you@yourbusiness.co.uk) so everything works together properly. I can also advise on configuring Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 for your business.
Can I update the website myself?
I don't force a particular platform on you. If you want to edit content yourself, we can build that in. Honest truth: I've rarely seen a small business owner or sole trader actually update their own site – they don't have the time or the inclination. So I build something that works, and you can ask me for updates when you need them. No pressure either way.
Do you do monthly retainers?
Not by default. Most small business projects are fixed‑price builds. If you want an ongoing retainer for updates and tweaks, we can do that, but I'm not bundling you into a subscription you don't need.
How long does it take?
A typical 3–8 page Cornwall small business or sole trader site takes around 2–4 weeks from "yes, let's do it" to launch, assuming you're available for feedback and can supply content and photos without huge delays.
What support do you offer?
Once your website is built, I tend to let you decide the pace of updates. I don't pressure you, or try to upsell new features, redesigns or subscribe you to newsletters. If you need help, I'm happy to give you a fixed price for ad-hoc updates when you need them.
