How much does a care home website cost?
+
The build is £1,490 + VAT: a complete, conversion-focused website, live in 14 days, with no hidden extras. After that, every site is on a simple monthly care plan from £49/mo + VAT that covers hosting, looking after the site, and small changes. If you want to actively rank and fill beds, Rank (local SEO) is £650/mo + VAT, and Fill My Diary is £799/mo + VAT. We'll tell you honestly which level fits.
How long does it take to build?
+
14 days from kick-off to live, for the standard build. The only thing that slows it down is waiting on your CQC report or fee information, so give us those at the start and we'll hit the date.
We're not technical. Can we update it ourselves?
+
You won't have to wrestle a clunky system. Two options: we give you a simple way to edit fees, news and reviews, or you just email us the change and we make it, included in your plan. It's a partnership, not a 'here's your login, good luck'.
Do you display our CQC rating?
+
Yes, prominently, on the homepage and contact page. It's the first thing families look for and the single biggest trust signal a care home site can carry. We surface your rating and inspection credentials properly, not buried in a footer.
We don't have professional photography. Is that a problem?
+
Not at all. It's the norm, and it's solved. We generate 15+ bespoke, warm, dignified images styled to feel like your home: rooms, lounge, dining, garden, exterior. No photographer, no disruption to residents, and the images are yours to keep and use anywhere.
What's the guarantee, exactly?
+
It comes with Fill My Diary (£799/mo + VAT) and nothing else: a minimum number of qualified enquiries in 90 days, sized at kickoff, or we work free until you hit it. It is never cash back, it is capped at 3 additional months, it needs the fair-play conditions and Fill My Diary has a 6-month minimum term. We can offer it because on Fill My Diary we run the website, the local SEO and the Google Ads, and we measure your enquiries from day one. The build on its own, the care plan and Rank (local SEO) on its own don't carry the guarantee, because they don't give us all the levers.
Who handles the hosting?
+
We do. It's included in your monthly plan. Fast, secure and genuinely low-maintenance: no plugins to break and nothing to get hacked. If you've had a WordPress site that was slow or got hacked, this is the opposite of that.
How can a care home fill empty beds faster?
+
Private placements come from families searching locally, so you need to be found and trusted in the same week. Google Ads puts you in front of families searching now, while local SEO and a properly run Google Business Profile build the steady flow underneath. The website does the converting: CQC rating up front, fees explained, a phone number that's always one tap away. That's exactly what Fill My Diary (£799/mo + VAT) combines, with an enquiry guarantee.

Do you do SEO for care homes on its own?
+
Yes. If your site is already in good shape, Rank, our local SEO plan (£650/mo + VAT), covers your Google Business Profile, local rankings for 'care home [your town]' searches, reviews and monthly reporting tied to enquiries. If the site itself is holding you back, we'll say so in the free review. Rank on its own doesn't carry the guarantee; Fill My Diary does.

Do you work with care home groups or multiple homes?
+
Yes. The 14-day package is built for a single home, but if you run several homes or a group, we'll scope a multi-site build that keeps each home distinct while sharing one easy-to-manage system. Just tell us on the call.
