About HowdyPixel

Everything Included as Standard

Not add-ons. Every website package comes with the full setup — so you're properly online from day one.

Professional Website

Mobile-responsive, fast-loading, and designed to convert visitors into enquiries. Built on WordPress with custom frameworks — not a template with your name swapped in.

SEO & Google Business

Every page is search-optimised with local keywords, proper structure, and meta tags. Your Google Business Profile is claimed, verified, and optimised so you show up in Maps and local results.

Domain & Hosting

Your own domain name, UK-based hosting with SSL, daily backups, and uptime monitoring. Managed monthly — no contracts, cancel any time.

Professional Email

Branded email on your domain — you@yourbusiness.co.uk — configured via Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace and set up across all your devices.

Logo & Branding

A professionally designed logo for your website, social media, business cards, and van. Cohesive branding that makes your business look established.

Ongoing Support

Content changes, updates, and technical support — included in your hosting. Just message Charlie on WhatsApp and it's usually sorted the same day.

Websites for Tradespeople

Professional websites for plumbers, electricians, builders, roofers, landscapers, cleaners, and decorators. Built to rank locally on Google and bring in enquiries. Most are live within 5–7 working days.

Bespoke Web Design

Fully custom websites designed and developed from scratch on WordPress. Unique layouts, tailored functionality, and a design that's entirely yours. Typically delivered in 2–4 weeks.

Ecommerce Web Design

Online shops built with WordPress and WooCommerce, with Stripe for secure payments. Sell physical products, digital downloads, subscriptions, or services — all from your own website.

Starting From Scratch

No domain, email, logo, or website? Charlie handles the lot — domain registration, email setup, logo design, Google Business, hosting, and a professional website. You just need a business name.

Websites built to look the part and bring in work.

Built for local search — so customers near you actually find you

Every website is optimised for the way real people search — "plumber in Bournemouth", "electrician near Southampton", "builder London". Charlie targets the areas you work in, not generic keywords that don't convert into jobs.

One person handles everything from start to finish

No account managers, no being passed between departments. Charlie is the designer, the developer, and the one who sets up your hosting, email, and Google Business. One person who knows your project inside out — and who you can message on WhatsApp any time.

Custom frameworks, not bloated page builders

Charlie has spent two years building his own tools, plugins, and AI-assisted workflows. That's how HowdyPixel delivers agency-quality websites in a fraction of the time and cost — without compromising on speed, SEO, or design quality.

Got Questions?

Quick answers to the things people ask most before getting started.

1. How much does a website cost?

Every project is different, so pricing is quoted individually. Charlie keeps things transparent — you'll know exactly what's included and what it costs before any work starts. Visit the pricing page or get in touch for a quote.

2. How quickly can I get a website?

Trade websites are typically live within 5–7 working days. Bespoke projects take 2–4 weeks depending on complexity. Either way, significantly faster than most agencies.

3. Do I need to provide content and photos?

Your own photos are always best, but Charlie can source professional stock imagery if needed. Copywriting is handled using AI-assisted tools with keyword research — so the content is tailored to what your customers search for.

4. Do you work in my area?

Charlie works remotely with clients across England — Dorset, Hampshire, London, Brighton, Exeter, and beyond. Everything is handled over WhatsApp, email, and phone. Distance is never a barrier.

5. Is there a contract?

No long-term contracts. The website build is a one-off payment. Hosting is monthly — cancel any time with 30 days' notice. No exit fees, no lock-in. More answers on the FAQs page.
