Website development
Built to launch. Built to be managed.
A website built by Hoztlr is not handed over and forgotten. It is scoped and priced before work starts, launched on managed infrastructure, and then looked after — because a build is only the first step of a longer relationship, not the end of one.
What a Hoztlr build includes
- Fixed scope and a fixed price, agreed in writing
- Launched on managed infrastructure, not handed to a stranger
- Documented from day one
- Handed over to a named contact, not a farewell email
What we build
Business websites and the work around them.
Ground we are confident on — and nothing we are not. If a project sits outside this, we will tell you before you have committed anything.
New business websites
The first serious site a business has ever had — or the first one built to actually support how it wins work.
Redesigns of existing sites
The structure that already works is kept, what holds it back is replaced, and nothing you rely on quietly breaks.
Landing pages and campaign pages
Pages built for a specific campaign or enquiry goal — quick to load, easy to measure, not disconnected from the main site.
Custom functionality and integrations
Forms, booking flows, data connections and third-party services, built to be maintained rather than pasted together.
WooCommerce and ecommerce builds
Selling online on the platform we know most deeply — set up so stock, payments and orders do not become your problem.
Migrations and replatforming
Moving a site properly: content, structure and search equity protected, redirects mapped, switchover planned.
The Hoztlr difference
Build → Launch → Manage → Improve.
Plenty of people will build you a website, invoice you and disappear. We build to a different shape: launch is the middle of the story, not the end of it.
Build
Scoped and priced before work starts. You approve a written proposal covering what will be built, what it costs and what happens if requirements change.
Launch
The site goes live on managed infrastructure — monitoring, backups and SSL already running, not bolted on afterwards.
Manage
The operational layer is ours from day one: updates, security, backups and a documented record of how everything fits together.
Improve
A roadmap of measured improvements — based on how the site is actually used, not on guesswork or a redesign every three years.
Development and management are one continuous relationship with one accountable partner — not a handoff from a builder to a stranger.
The process
How a project runs.
Five stages, each with something you can hold: a proposal, reviews, a launch checklist, and a named contact afterwards.
Conversation
A short, practical discussion about what the site needs to do — for the business, not for a design award.
Scope and fixed quote
You receive a written proposal: what will be built, what it costs, and what happens if requirements change. Nothing starts until you approve it.
Build with staged reviews
You see the work as it progresses and comment at agreed points, so launch day contains no surprises.
Launch and handover
The site goes live on managed infrastructure, with documentation and a named contact from the first day.
Ongoing management
Hosting, updates, backups, monitoring and support continue under managed website services — the build was never the end of the relationship.

Honest platform guidance
How we decide the platform.
The right tool for the requirement, chosen in the open — with an easy way out if we are not the right people for the job.
WordPress and WooCommerce
Where content control and ecosystem matter. WordPress and WooCommerce are platforms we know deeply — and we recommend them only where that depth genuinely serves the project.
Modern static and JavaScript builds
Where speed and simplicity matter. Landing pages, brochure sites and campaign pages often need less machinery than a full CMS — we build accordingly.
The requirement decides
We recommend for your requirement, not our preference. If we are not the right fit for a project, we say so early — and where useful, point you towards someone who is.

Website takeover
If the current site is a mess, fix the foundation first. We audit and document your setup, stabilise the risks — then rebuild on solid ground if a rebuild is what you need.
How takeover worksManaged website services
What happens after launch. Hosting, updates, backups, monitoring, support and measured improvement — the operational layer, owned by one accountable partner.
See what happens after launchDevelopment questions
Good questions, straight answers.
Do you only build WordPress sites?
No, although WordPress and WooCommerce are platforms we know deeply and often recommend for the right reasons. We also build with modern JavaScript frameworks where a project genuinely benefits. The recommendation follows the requirement, not our preference.
What happens after the site launches?
That is the point. Every site we build is designed to be managed: it moves straight into managed website services, so hosting, updates, backups and monitoring are already in place rather than becoming someone else's problem. Build, launch, manage, improve.
Can you rebuild or migrate our existing site?
Yes. We assess what is worth keeping — content, structure, search equity — and plan a migration or rebuild that protects it. Redirects are mapped properly and the switchover is scheduled to minimise disruption.
How is a project priced?
Fixed scope, fixed price. After a short discovery we send a written proposal covering what will be built, what it costs and what happens if requirements change. Work starts only after you approve it.
Planning a build?
Tell us what the website needs to do and we will scope it, price it in writing and tell you honestly if a build is even the right answer.
