Free demo first

Who it is for
This service is for owners of real local businesses: restaurants, barbers, salons, photographers, trades and small shops across Southend-on-Sea, Essex, London and the South East, and remotely across the UK. You might have no website at all, an old one you are embarrassed to share, or a page-builder site you fight with every time something needs changing. You want a site that looks right on a phone, says clearly what you do, and makes it easy for customers to get in touch.
It is also for anyone who has been burnt by a web project before. That is why there is no deposit and why every site carries a 60-day guarantee: the risk sits with us, not with you.
What is included
A five-page site, designed for your business
Home, about, services, a gallery or menu, and contact, arranged around what your customers actually need. Built by hand and checked on phones, tablets and desktops.
Help with your words
We shape your content with you so every page says plainly what you do, who it is for and how to get in touch. When we are done, the content is yours.
Live within 7 days
From sign-off on your free demo to launch inside a week. Most small business sites do not need months, so we do not take months.
No deposit
You pay nothing up front. You see a free demo of your site first, and if you do not love it you walk away owing nothing.
60-day guarantee
For 60 days after launch, anything broken or not as agreed, I fix free. Still not happy? Your money back instead.
You own everything
Design, code, content and source files are handed over to you. No lock-in and nothing rented: any developer could pick the site up tomorrow.
Optional care plans
If you would rather not touch the site yourself, our care and maintenance plans handle updates and changes. Optional, because the site is yours either way.
Honest scope notes
The free demo is a brilliant five-page site, and we mean that scope honestly. It covers a home page, about, services, a gallery or menu, and contact. For a restaurant, a barber, a salon, a photographer or a trade, that is usually everything the business needs, done properly. It is not an ecommerce platform, a members area or a custom web application, and we would rather say so on this page than midway through a project.
Each step up adds something specific. Extra pages add room for more services, locations or a longer story. Online booking and payments move you into our booking and payments platform work, where the site takes money and manages a diary rather than just presenting one. Full ecommerce, customer accounts, native apps and AI features are custom builds, and we quote for them after a conversation, before any work starts.
The 7-day promise applies to the standard site. Bigger builds take longer, and we will give you a straight timeline in weeks before you commit to anything.
In our clients' words
“Luke at Own Time Studios created a fantastic webpage for me. After just a 20-minute phone call, I had a fully finished site by the end of the day that far exceeded my expectations. He also sorted out the domain emails and offered helpful free advice on other matters. Extremely reasonable, quick to respond to any questions, and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Luke and his team, and I’m already looking forward to working with him on future projects.”
“Luke is a true gentleman, very knowledgeable, very helpfull and does his work with passion. He does not just leave you in limbo but gives his full support, the new website he did for me is spot on. Very highly recommended”
“Amazing service by Luke. Will definitely reccomend in the future”
