What is web design for small businesses?
To us, it means creating a simple, clear, mobile-friendly website that helps customers understand what you offer and makes it easy for them to contact or buy from you.
Affordable Web Design for Small Businesses, Done Properly
Affordable shouldn’t mean basic or low quality. It should mean:
- A website that does its job
- Clear pricing
- No long contracts
- No unnecessary extras
- No confusing language
With Tall Hut, you get a website that’s professional, fast and built to convert, without the inflated costs of large agencies.
Most projects are between £600 and £2,500, depending on the size of your site. A typical website takes about 3 weeks to complete.

Design & Build
Your website is designed to look clean, modern and easy to understand. I add your text, photos and contact details. Everything is checked carefully.
