Frequently Asked Questions
I'm new to websites. Can you guide me?
No problem. I’ll walk you through everything and get your business online properly. Have a look at how it works for the four simple stages.
How much does a pay monthly website cost?
Plans start at £250 a month plus VAT, with no setup fee. That covers design and build, hosting, your domain, Google Workspace email, copywriting and Local SEO. Beta and Alpha add more pages, more areas and SEO Boost. See pricing for the full comparison.
Why is there an ongoing monthly fee?
It covers hosting, domain renewal, security updates, backups, content tweaks, ongoing SEO and support. I handle the tech. You run the business.
Are there any hidden charges?
No. One clear monthly fee covers the build, hosting, domain, email and the usual content changes. Bigger additions like a full online shop or a booking system are quoted separately, and I will always tell you the figure before you commit to anything.
How do I make changes to my website?
Email info@hungrywolf.co.uk and I’ll handle it. WhatsApp and text work too.
I own a domain already. Can I keep it?
Yes. You stay the owner. I’ll guide the transfer and cover the renewals.
Can you work with my existing website?
I usually recommend a clean start for the best SEO and modern standards but tell me what you’ve got and I’ll advise.
Can I keep my current hosting?
Do you set up business email?
Google Workspace is included (Gmail, storage, calendars). Microsoft or others work too.
I have no content. Can you help?
Yes. Copywriting and stock images are included in every package.
Is there a limit on how many pages I get?
No. I don’t work to strict page limits. I build what your business actually needs. If your site needs an extra page down the line, that’s usually just part of the ongoing service (within reason).
Can you design a logo?
I partner with designers for all budgets or create simple ones free.
How long does it take to build my website?
Usually 4 to 8 weeks, depending on complexity and how busy things are. The sooner I get your info and content, the sooner it goes live.
Can you guarantee number one on Google?
No, and be wary of anyone who says otherwise. SEO isn’t instant magic. I apply proven Local SEO strategies to steadily improve your rankings, and every site is optimised for AI search (GEO) too.
How do I pay?
Direct Debit (GoCardless) or auto pay by card (Stripe).
Can I upgrade later?
Yes. Contact me when you’re ready to grow.
Can you build an online shop?
I specialise in brochure sites but can integrate shopping carts. Let’s discuss your needs.
Can you help with Google Ads?
Yes. I can refer you to a trusted partner for advertising online.
Who owns the website?
You do, the whole build. Your content, images and the website itself are yours to take if you ever move on. The only thing that doesn’t come with you is the software licences, because they run on my bulk accounts, so you’d need to pick those up directly at the standard rate. I’ll tell you exactly which ones and what they cost, so there are no surprises.
How long is the contract?
A 12-month minimum is recommended, as SEO takes time to work. It’s not an overnight thing. That said, life happens: businesses change, grow or sometimes close. I’ll never charge you to leave, and I won’t hold you back or make it awkward. If you do need to go, I’ll help make the handover as smooth as possible. All I ask is that you understand SEO needs time to deliver.
What happens after the 12 months?
You carry on month to month and can stop whenever you like. The minimum term is 12 months because that’s how long the SEO work takes to properly pay off, not to tie you in. If you do decide to move on, you take the whole website with you, and I’ll transfer the domain wherever you want it. No exit fee, no hostage situation. You’d just need to take over the software licences yourself, since mine are bulk accounts.
Does my business really need a website?
Yes. It builds trust, connects you with customers and makes booking easy. It’s also what Google and AI tools like ChatGPT read when someone asks them to recommend a business like yours.
What is GEO, and why does it matter?
Generative Engine Optimisation. It means making sure AI tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google’s AI answers understand what you do, where you work and why customers trust you. It’s included in every HungryWolf® website alongside Local SEO.
What's the difference between Pup, Beta and Alpha?
Pup covers the essentials for a new start-up (up to 5 pages). Beta adds local landing pages for multiple areas (up to 10 pages). Alpha adds SEO Boost: citation building, rank tracking and monthly reporting. Compare the plans.
Do you only work with trades?
No. Trades are a big part of what I do, but I’ve built sites for everything from aesthetic clinics and eye surgeons to soft play centres and landscapers. See the portfolio.
Which areas do you cover?
I’m based in the West Midlands and work with businesses across the UK, and as far afield as Bermuda and the Cayman Islands. Everything is handled by email, WhatsApp and phone, so location isn’t an issue.
