How it works

Three steps. From blank page to published.

No briefs to write from scratch, no build queue to wait on. Tell us about the business once, approve the design, and we take it live — then keep it that way.

Step 01

Tell us about you

A 30-minute call and a short form. We capture your services, your voice and the look you want — and turn it into a plan.

Step 02

We design & build it

Our team designs, writes and builds your site on fast, secure hosting. You review one or two rounds — most sites go live within two weeks.

Step 03

We look after it

Hosting, updates, security and unlimited small edits are all included. Email us a change — it's done that day, not added to a queue you manage.

What's included

Everything a site needs — handled, not handed over.

Other services ship a site and leave. Lumen stays. Your plan covers the work that usually turns into surprise invoices.

Custom design, not a template

A site shaped around your business and your customers — designed by people, reviewed by you.

Fast, secure hosting included

Global CDN, SSL, daily backups and an SLA. No separate hosting bill, no "your site is down" panics.

Unlimited small edits

New opening hours, a price change, a fresh photo — email us and it's live the same day. As many as you like.

Found on Google, built to convert

Technical SEO, fast load times and clear calls to action come as standard — so the site actually brings in enquiries.

Everything in one subscription

One team instead of a stack of tools

Design, build, hosting, forms, analytics, custom domains and SSL — managed together by one team, so nothing falls out of sync.

Designed for you

A custom site shaped around your business and your customers — designed by people, reviewed by you, never a template you have to wrestle into shape.

Managed hosting included

Global edge hosting, automatic SSL, daily backups and an SLA — with zero server configuration. No separate bill, no "your site is down" panics.

Forms & enquiries

Capture leads with built-in forms and spam protection — nothing third-party to wire up.

Analytics in plain language

Privacy-friendly traffic and conversion data, reported clearly so you know what's working.

Custom domain handled

Connect a domain you own or register a new one — DNS is set up for you, no records to copy by hand.

SSL by default

Every site ships secure. Certificates are provisioned and renewed automatically — nothing for you to manage.

Pricing

One flat price. No surprises.

Design, build, hosting and ongoing care in a single monthly fee. Cancel any time — you keep your domain.

In their words

The work speaks. So do the owners.

"I'd put off a website for three years because the agency quotes scared me. Lumen had us live in twelve days, and I just email when something changes. It's the easiest bill I pay."
Sarah Whitfield Sarah Whitfield
Owner, Maple & Co.
"Enquiries through the site doubled in the first quarter. What sold me was never having to log into anything — I send a message, the change is done. That's worth the fee on its own."
James Okafor James Okafor
Director, Northgate Joinery
"It looks like a studio charged us five figures for it. It didn't. The fact that it updates whenever we ask, with zero hassle, still feels slightly unfair to everyone else."

FAQ

The honest answers.

Still unsure? Book a no-pressure call

Do I own my website?
You own your domain and all your content, always. The site is built and maintained on our platform as part of the subscription, like Shopify or Squarespace — but with a real team behind it. If you ever leave, we'll export your content for you.
What counts as a "small edit"?
Text changes, new photos, updated prices or hours, swapping a service, adding a testimonial — anything that takes us under about 30 minutes. On Growth and Scale these are unlimited. Bigger projects (a new section, a shop) are quoted up front, never a surprise.
How long until my site is live?
Most sites go live within 14 days of the kickoff call. Starter sites are often quicker. We'll give you a firm date after we've seen your content.
Is there a contract or setup fee?
No lock-in contract and no setup fee. You pay the monthly (or annual) price and can cancel any time. We only ask for a month's notice so we can hand over your content cleanly.
What if I already have a website?
Great — we'll redesign it. We move your content, keep what's working for search, set up redirects so you don't lose rankings, and switch over with no downtime.

Let's get your business online — properly.

Tell us where to reach you and we'll send a short questionnaire plus a time for your kickoff call. No payment until you've seen the plan.
