The problem

An Instagram page isn't a website.

What you do is great. It's everything around it: bookings through DMs, prices in a photo, and no idea where your last customer came from.

Social media is rented space. Your website is the one place online you own.

Orbit gets your business properly online.

Agency-quality custom design at a freelancer price. Orbit hosts, secures, backs up and updates everything, so you never log into anything unless you want to. One care plan replaces a website-builder subscription and the person you'd pay to maintain it.

How it works

From paper to live site in five steps.

Two builds in progress at a time, so your project gets proper attention. Every site is reviewed and tested by Bill before launch.

Case study

Fulgent Capital

A financial wellbeing business with books, an online programme and workshops.

A man in a suit walks away from the camera along a wet riverside promenade towards the City of London at sunrise, with St Paul's Cathedral, the Gherkin and the Shard on the skyline. On the right, five signs hang from a stone building: Awareness, Planning, Resilience, Protection and Legacy.

Making Better Financial Decisions

Website design, ongoing care and a homepage refresh.

Fulgent Capital runs The Market Man Method™, a five-pillar framework for financial wellbeing, alongside a book trilogy, a self-guided online programme and workshops. I designed and built their Squarespace website and look after it month to month.

  • Designed and built the website, including a paywalled 7-module Self-Guided Financial Wellbeing Programme
  • Ongoing care: content updates, fixes and improvements to the customer journey
  • A refreshed homepage: one clear next step, the Five Pillars up front, programmes, books and reviews easy to find

Planned: moving to a custom, Orbit-hosted site.

Cheap template, DIY, or an agency you can't afford.

Most independent businesses are stuck choosing between these. Here's how Orbit compares.

About Orbit

Run by Bill, in Bury St Edmunds.

I'm Bill Maynard. My day job is making complex systems work for busy people who don't have time to fight with technology. Orbit brings that same approach to small businesses: I build your website, set up the tools you need, and explain everything in plain English. I'm happy to visit anywhere in Suffolk, and I work remotely with businesses further afield.

Free digital audit

See your new homepage before you spend a penny.

A 30-minute visit, free and with no obligation. I look at:

  1. How you show up on Google today
  2. How customers book and pay
  3. What's still on paper
  4. A mock-up of your new homepage, and a fixed-price quote

It takes about a minute. I'll ask anything else on the day.

Whichever you prefer. I only need one.

e.g. more bookings, fewer DMs. Please don't include any medical or customer details.
