Beccles sits where the River Waveney begins to widen into the southern reaches of the Broads, and that position gives the town a distinctive character — part working market town, part gateway to one of the UK's most popular boating and wildlife destinations. The town has an active sailing and boating community, a good range of independent businesses, and a large waterside leisure economy that peaks through the summer months.
Fresh Slate Design builds WordPress websites for Beccles businesses that attract customers whether they're local residents, boating visitors passing through, or people searching from home before they arrive.
Three services, fixed prices, no hidden extras. Everything your Beccles business needs from a website.
A custom WordPress website built for your business — not a template designed for everyone. Includes 5–8 pages, mobile-responsive design, basic on-page SEO, contact form, Google Analytics, and speed optimisation. Two rounds of revisions included.
Beccles businesses I work with include boating and sailing businesses on the river, holiday accommodation and B&Bs, independent retailers and restaurants, chandleries and leisure equipment suppliers, tradespeople serving the wider Waveney district, and professional services based in the town.
A full WooCommerce online shop built on WordPress. You own it outright — no monthly platform fees, no marketplace commission. Includes payment integration, shipping setup, and up to 30 products.
For Beccles businesses selling online — boating supplies, leisure equipment, local food, gifts, or crafts — WooCommerce gives you a properly-built shop on WordPress with Stripe and PayPal, shipping configuration, and up to 30 products.
Your website is a business asset. A maintenance plan keeps it secure, fast, and up to date — so you can focus on running your Beccles business rather than worrying about what's happening in the background.
I'm not a large agency juggling dozens of clients. I take on a limited number of projects at a time to give each one proper attention — and I deal with you directly from first conversation to launch.
WordPress powers over 40% of all websites on the internet. I build on it exclusively — so you get real expertise, not a surface-level familiarity spread across multiple platforms.
You receive a written quote with a clear scope before any work starts. The price agreed is the price you pay — no surprises when the invoice arrives.
Most sites go live within 2–3 weeks of the project starting. No agency queues, no account managers adding time to every step.
Maintenance plans and hourly additional work available after launch — you're never left to figure things out on your own.
A simple, transparent process — so you always know what's happening and what comes next.
Get in touch for a no-obligation chat. We'll talk about what your business needs from its website, your goals, and your budget. No jargon, no pressure.
Within 48 hours you'll receive a clear, fixed-price quote with a written scope of exactly what's included. No surprises, no hidden costs.
Your site is built on WordPress — the platform behind over 40% of the web. You'll see a draft to review before anything goes live, and you get 2 rounds of revisions to make sure it's right.
Once you're happy, we go live. You'll get a short training session so you feel confident making basic updates yourself. Optional ongoing maintenance keeps everything secure and running smoothly.
