When planning your website, you might wonder why certain features are priced separately from the main website packages. Understanding website add ons helps you make informed decisions about what your business actually needs.
Why Are Add Ons Priced Separately?
In our experience working with small businesses, not every business needs the same features. A photographer might need a gallery and booking system, while a consultant might need a client portal. By pricing these separately, we keep our website packages affordable and let you pay only for what you need.
Common Website Add Ons
Online Booking Systems
Perfect for service-based businesses like salons, therapists, consultants, or fitness instructors. We can set up systems like Calendly, Bookly, or Amelia to let clients book appointments directly through your website.
E-commerce and Payments
If you’re selling products, services, or digital downloads, we can set up WooCommerce with payment gateways, product catalogues, and checkout functionality.
Membership Areas and Client Portals
Ideal for coaches, trainers, or businesses offering exclusive content. We can create password-protected areas where members can access special content or resources.
Advanced Forms and Automations
Beyond basic contact forms, we can create multi-step forms, conditional logic, and automations that connect with your email marketing or CRM tools.
Third-Party Costs
It’s important to note that many add ons require third-party plugins or subscriptions. We’ll always be clear about any ongoing costs you’ll be responsible for, such as plugin licences or payment gateway fees.
Planning for the Future
This is something we often see when helping clients—you don’t need everything at launch. Many businesses start with a simple website and add features as they grow. We can advise on what makes sense for your current stage and what to plan for later.
