Who builds your website

Not a local agency. A better deal for local businesses.

I’m Mehedi Hasan, the WordPress developer behind Hawkto Digital. I work remotely from Dhaka, Bangladesh, and I build websites for local businesses that need more calls, bookings and enquiries. I’m not based in Hertfordshire, and I won’t pretend to be. Here is what you get instead:

  • Agency-quality work at a freelancer price. A UK freelancer typically charges £500–£1,500 for a 3–5 page brochure site and regional agencies £3,000–£8,000 (ExpertSure, 2026). My websites start at $400.
  • Calls during UK business hours and replies typically within an hour, so it never feels like you’re working with someone far away.
  • A fixed price in writing before any work starts, and nothing to pay until you say yes.
  • You own everything: your website, domain, hosting and content stay in your name.

What every website includes

Built to win customers in Hertfordshire, not just to look nice

Whichever package you choose, your website comes with the essentials that turn visitors into enquiries.

  • Mobile-first design

    Most local searches happen on a phone, so every page is designed for small screens first, then scaled up.

  • Built for speed

    Lean WordPress builds aimed at Google’s Core Web Vitals targets, so pages load fast and feel instant.

  • Local SEO foundation

    Page titles, headings, schema markup and local keywords such as “plumber in St Albans” or “cleaner in Watford” are set up from day one.

  • Click-to-call and quote forms

    Big call buttons on mobile and short enquiry forms, so visitors can contact you in one tap.

  • Google Business Profile ready

    Your website and Google Business Profile are linked, with the same name, address and phone number everywhere.

  • UK GDPR basics

    A privacy policy page, secure forms and a cookie banner with equal Accept and Reject buttons, set up the way UK guidance expects.

  • Easy to update yourself

    Built on WordPress and Elementor, so you can change text, prices and photos without calling a developer.

  • Tracking that shows results

    Google Analytics 4 with call and form tracking, so you can see exactly how many enquiries the website brings in.

FAQ

Web Developer Hertfordshire FAQs: what business owners ask first

Straight answers on cost, timelines, ownership and working with a remote developer.

How much does a website cost in Hertfordshire?

According to ExpertSure’s 2026 UK pricing guide, a 3–5 page brochure website from a UK freelancer typically costs £500–£1,500, while regional agencies usually charge £3,000–£8,000. My websites start at $400 for a Basic Website, $800 for a fully custom Amazing Website and up to $1,200 for a Complex Website with bookings or e-commerce. You get a fixed price in writing before any work starts.

Do I need a web developer who is based in Hertfordshire?

No. What matters is that your website is fast, easy to use and built to show up when people in your area search on Google. I am a remote WordPress developer based in Dhaka, Bangladesh, and I am upfront about that. You get calls during UK business hours, replies typically within an hour and a site built around your local customers.

Why are your prices in US dollars?

Most of my clients are in the US, so I price and invoice in US dollars. You can pay by credit card or PayPal, and your bank or PayPal converts the amount into pounds at the day’s rate. Website projects are 50% upfront and 50% when the site is finished.

How long does it take to build a website?

A Basic Website goes live 7 days after you say yes. Amazing and Complex websites take 10–14 days. The timeline is confirmed in your written proposal before work starts.

Will I own my website and domain?

Yes, from day one. You buy the domain (for example a .co.uk) and hosting in your own name, and I set everything up for you. If you ever decide to move on, you keep the website, the domain and all of your content.

Can I update the website myself?

Yes. Every site is built on WordPress with Elementor, so you can change text, prices, photos and opening hours yourself. If you would rather not, I can make updates for you.

Will my website follow UK GDPR and cookie rules?

I set up a privacy policy page, secure contact forms and a cookie banner with equal Accept and Reject buttons, so only essential cookies run until a visitor agrees. I am not a lawyer, so for anything specific to your business, such as how you store customer data, check with a legal adviser.

How many revisions do I get?

Every website includes 2 rounds of revisions. Most changes are small tweaks to text, colours or images, and they are handled quickly.

Will my new website show up on Google?

Every site launches with a local SEO foundation: page titles, headings, schema markup, fast loading and a link-up with your Google Business Profile. To climb Google Maps and local search results in your town, ongoing Local SEO from $300 a month builds on that foundation.

Do you only work with Hertfordshire businesses?

No. Most of my clients are local businesses in the US and Australia, and I work remotely, so businesses anywhere in the UK are welcome, including nearby areas such as North London, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Essex.
