Augustova builds websites for UK businesses at £4,000 to £16,000 as a fixed price per phase, delivered in two to five weeks. That covers marketing sites, booking and enquiry flows, customer portals and ecommerce, with performance, accessibility and structured data handled as part of the build rather than sold as an extra. We deliver this for businesses in Bournemouth and across Dorset.

ServingBournemouth and Dorset
How this usually starts in Bournemouth
Financial firms need credibility and precision; visitor businesses need a booking engine. The same site rarely serves both well.
Why Bournemouth businesses ask for this
Bournemouth combines a substantial financial services and insurance presence with one of the larger digital and creative clusters on the south coast, plus a significant visitor economy. Businesses here manage year round professional obligations alongside sharply seasonal trade.
A city with both regulated financial firms and seasonal hospitality needs two different answers. The first question is always which one you actually are.

What you receive
✓A live site on hosting and a domain registered in your own name
✓Editable content, so copy and images change without a developer
✓Measured Core Web Vitals and an accessibility pass, not a claim about them
✓Structured data, sitemap, canonical tags and search console verification

What this does not include

✗Copywriting for every page when your team knows the business better, though we will structure and edit it
Signs this is the right call
Your site was built by somebody you can no longer reach
Enquiries arrive by phone because the form is awkward or invisible on a mobile
You pay for a website you cannot change a price on without asking permission
Where projects like this go wrong
A site nobody can edit
The most expensive website is the one where a price change needs a developer. Content is editable by your own team from the first day, and the walkthrough is recorded so the knowledge does not sit with one person.
Fast in the demo, slow on a phone
Performance claims mean nothing without a measurement on a real device and a mid range connection. Core Web Vitals are measured before launch and after, and the numbers are shown to you rather than described.
A rebuild that loses the rankings
Replacing a site without mapping the old URLs throws away whatever search visibility it had. Redirects, canonical tags and structured data are part of the build, and the sitemap is submitted at launch rather than weeks later.
Common questions
How much does a website cost in the UK?
Augustova builds websites for £4,000 to £16,000 as a fixed price per phase. A focused marketing site with a strong enquiry flow sits at the lower end, while a site with booking, payments, a customer login or a large content structure sits at the upper end.
What is the difference between web development and app development here?
A website explains, sells and captures enquiries, and its job is finished when somebody gets in touch or buys. An application is the thing your team or your customers log into and use repeatedly. If people will have accounts and daily tasks, that is app development at £8,000 to £30,000.
Can we edit the site ourselves afterwards?
Yes, and that is the point. Content is editable by your own team without a developer, the hosting and domain sit in accounts registered in your name, and you receive a recorded walkthrough of how to make changes safely.
Will a rebuild damage our Google rankings?
Not if the old URLs are mapped. Every existing page gets a redirect or a deliberate decision, canonical tags and structured data are part of the build, and the sitemap goes to Google and Bing at launch. Losing rankings in a rebuild is a planning failure rather than an inevitability.
Do you do SEO as well?
The technical half, as part of the build: structured data, performance, crawlability, canonical tags, sitemaps and search console setup. Ongoing content and link building is a separate discipline and we will say so rather than sell you a retainer for it.
