Questions, answered
Straight answers about free offers, prices, and what you can honestly expect.
A plain-English review of your live site: what’s working, what’s costing enquiries, and what we’d fix first. Usually within two working days. No card. No obligation.
One desktop homepage concept using your business, colours and goals. Typically 48–72 hours. Limited to 4 free mockups per month so quality stays high. Yours to keep · nothing to sign.
No. You share goals and content. The studio handles design, build, forms and handoff; Usman directs and signs it off. You get a site you can use, plus WhatsApp support with him.
You are buying a director-led studio, not a high-street agency with layers of account managers. Launch offer (same deliverables): Presence £1,199 £599 · Growth £1,999 £999 · Lead Engine £3,499 £1,749. Competitive with strong UK freelancers, not Fiverr.
50% Stripe deposit of the sale price to start, 50% before launch. Presence £299.50 · Growth £499.50 · Lead Engine £874.50. Retainers billed monthly in advance from £449. Invoicing via XD Readers Limited · 14440973. Ad spend (if any) is paid by you direct to Google or Meta.
Yes. Work is delivered under XD Readers Limited · 14440973 (searchable on Companies House). UK WhatsApp +44 7706 666484. Delivery is remote with UK-friendly hours.
No honest provider can promise that. Rankings depend on competition and relevance. We build sites that convert visitors and set up solid foundations; SEO retainers are separate if you need ongoing work.
No. XD Readers is a specialist studio for brand, design, development, content and lead generation. Usman is the founder: he takes the brief, directs the work, and nothing is final until he approves it. That is why you WhatsApp him, not a switchboard.
No — and no honest site should. Book a screen share: you join a live Google Meet (or WhatsApp video). You share your current site, or we share a mockup. Nothing is installed, and nobody takes remote control of your PC.
No — that is for your protection. The package is the design and build. You buy the domain and hosting in your business name (typically £10–15/year for a domain, a few pounds a month for hosting). Known UK options: 123-reg, IONOS, Fasthosts or Names.co.uk. Search yourname.co.uk, buy domain and hosting in one account, set the owner as your company, turn auto-renew on. If you already have a domain, we connect to that. We can do the clicks with you on a screen share. We do not register your domain in our name. Business email (Google Workspace or Microsoft 365) is also yours to buy if you want it.
You approve a private preview link first. Then the final 50% is paid. We point your domain at your hosting, upload the site, switch on HTTPS, and test call, WhatsApp and form. You keep the logins. If you still need a domain, buy a .co.uk from 123-reg, IONOS, Fasthosts or Names.co.uk (or keep whatever you already own) and we connect it.
Typically about 10–14 days once content and deposit are in. Delays usually come from waiting on photos or copy approvals.
From £449/month: posts, small site edits, or light ads management (your choice). Ads-management retainers typically £699+. Cancel with notice before the next billing date.
Yes. Marketing and SEO agencies can use the studio for conversion landing pages under their brand. Message Usman for volume pricing.
