Websites designed by a person.
Built with AI.
Maria designs it. AI builds it. You approve one thing and it's live.
The result is a site that loads in under a second, has nothing to hack and nothing to update, and can be changed in minutes instead of waiting on a developer. After 25 years building websites the traditional way, this is the move we've made.
Why we changed
We built our first website in 1999 and we've built hundreds since: hand-coded at first, then WordPress for most of the last fifteen years.
WordPress was the right answer for a long time. It stopped being the right answer for small businesses somewhere around 2023. A typical small-business WordPress site now runs fifteen to twenty plugins, needs a security plugin to protect the other plugins, slows down every time one updates, and breaks when two disagree. The owner pays for hosting, pays for maintenance, and still ends up with a site that scores badly on Google's speed tests and gets hacked if anyone forgets a password.
In 2026 AI got good enough to write the code for a whole website from a designer's layout. That changes what a website is. It can be a set of plain, fast pages with no database, no login and no plugins, because there's no longer any reason to pay for the complexity. The design is still a designer's work. The build is done by AI, and checked by a person.
We rebuilt our own site this way first. You're looking at it.
What you get, and why it's better
It loads fast.
No plugins, no page builder, no database queries. This page scores TODO: PageSpeed mobile score once live on Google's own speed test. Most WordPress small-business sites we audit score in the 30s and 40s. Speed is a ranking factor and it's the first thing a visitor notices.
There's nothing to hack.
A static site has no admin login, no database and no PHP, which is where WordPress attacks go. There's no security plugin because there's nothing for one to protect.
There's nothing to update.
No plugin updates, no theme updates, no “your site needs attention” emails. The site you launch is the site you have in three years.
Changes take minutes.
Text changes, a new team member, a new service: we make them and they're live within the hour. No developer queue.
It's built for Google and for AI.
Clean pages with clear headings and structured data are the easiest thing for Google and for AI tools like ChatGPT to read and cite. The same work that makes the site fast makes it easy to find. AI Search →
The design is still a design.
Maria lays out every site on a canvas, for your business, before anything is built. It isn't a template with your logo dropped in. See our own homepage for what that looks like.
The fixed-price site
Five pages and a way to get in touch. One price.
For most small businesses, that's what a website is. So that's what we've made a fixed price for.

Start with a free call What's included
- Up to five pages: home, about, services, contact and one more of your choosing
- Designed by Maria for your business, approved by you on a canvas before we build
- Written for you. We record a 15-minute call, and our AI content system drafts every page from it. You don't write a word. You read and approve.
- A contact form, your phone number and a booking link on every page
- Your Google Business Profile linked and your reviews shown
- A chatbot trained on your pages that answers questions and takes enquiries TODO: included or add-on
- Google Analytics and Search Console connected, so you can see who's visiting
- Live within TODO: X working days of your approval
Hosting includes
SSL certificate, daily offsite backups plus version history of every change, uptime monitoring, security headers, small text changes, a quarterly report of where you show up in Google and in AI answers, and a professional email address (name@yourbusiness.ie) that works in Outlook, Apple Mail or on your phone, with webmail at webmail.yourbusiness.ie.
Don't have a domain yet? We'll register a .ie or .com for you for €25 a year on top, in your name. We're a registered IEDR reseller, so .ie registrations are handled directly.
What's not in the fixed price
Anything that needs a database, a login, payments or product listings: online shops, booking systems with payment, member areas, custom calculators. Those are proper projects and we quote them properly. If you need one, say so on the call. Embeds don't count: a booking calendar, a chatbot, a map, a video, a reviews widget all fit inside the fixed price.
How a build works
- 01A free callThirty minutes. What you do, who you sell to, what you want the site to achieve. We record it, with your permission, because it becomes the content.
- 02Design on a canvasMaria designs the site and you see it as a live layout, not a PDF. You mark changes on it. One round of changes is included, and that's usually all it takes.
- 03AI builds itFrom Maria's design, with the content drafted from your call. John checks every page before you see it.
- 04You approve. It goes live.We connect your domain, analytics and Search Console, and redirect your old pages so you lose nothing in Google.
- 05We look after itHosting, backups, monitoring, small changes, and the quarterly visibility report.
Case study one
The first site built this way: ours.
webworks.ie, October 2026. Designed by Maria, built with AI, hosted for a few euro a month. Every claim on this page is a thing we did to our own site first.
Next: bpss-clearance.co.uk, one of our own UK sites, rebuilt the same way. TODO: add when live, with before/after speed scores

Twenty-five years of web design
Before AI, there was a lot of hand-built work, and we're proud of it. A few of the sites we designed and built the traditional way.

Questions people ask
Will it look like a template?
No. Maria designs every site for the business it's for, on a canvas you approve before anything is built. AI builds what she designs; it doesn't choose the design.
Can I update it myself?
You can, if you want to: the site is plain files you own, and we'll show you how. Most clients find it easier to send us the change, since small text changes are included in hosting and are usually live within the hour.
What about my existing WordPress site?
We rebuild it. Your content comes across, your old addresses are redirected so you keep your Google rankings, and the WordPress install is retired. Most clients notice the speed first.
Do you still build WordPress sites?
Not for new projects. If you need something WordPress does well, such as a large shop with complex stock, we'll say so on the call and tell you who to talk to.
Do I own the site?
Yes. The domain is in your name (including one we register for you), the files are yours, and if you ever leave you take them with you.
Can I keep my existing email?
Yes. If you're on Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, we point your domain at it and leave it alone. If you're still on a Gmail or Hotmail address for the business, hosting includes a proper name@yourbusiness.ie address; extra mailboxes are a small yearly charge.
What happens to my old URLs?
Every old page is redirected to its new equivalent before launch, so links and rankings carry over.
What if I need an online shop or a booking system?
That's a project rather than the fixed-price site, because it needs a database and payments. We quote those individually. A booking link or a payment button that goes to someone else's system (Stripe, Square, Calendly) fits in the fixed price.
