Two cottages above the harbour.
Book with us directly — no booking-site fees.
A preview only. Your real draft uses your own photos and words.
How it works
We draft your page
Built around what your customers need: how to book, what you offer, where you are. You get a link to look at it.
You send photos and a few lines
Phone photos are fine. Tell us what to change and we change it — as many rounds as it takes.
It goes live, then you pay
On a domain registered in your name. Bookings and enquiries come straight to your e-mail.
One fixed price
No monthly plan to sign up for, no setup fee, no surprise extras. The first year of hosting and small edits is included.
You pay by bank transfer or card, only after the site is live and you're happy with it.

Finished pages, ready to click through
Three sample sites for made-up businesses, built from the same templates we use for real ones.
A new, small studio — so the risk sits with us
Backroad Web works remotely from Almaty, Kazakhstan, for small businesses in New Zealand, Australia, France and the UK. We are new, which is exactly why nothing is paid until your site is live.
One person writes to you, builds your site and answers your messages.
Why is it cheaper than a local agency?
We build focused one-page sites from tested templates instead of starting from zero, and our costs are low. You get a fast, simple site, not a big custom project.
Who owns the website and the domain?
You do. The domain is registered in your name, at a registrar in your country. If you ever leave us, you keep it.
What if I don't like the draft?
Tell us what to change, or say no and we delete it. You owe nothing either way.
Can I change things later?
Yes. Send an e-mail with the new prices, photos or opening hours; small edits are included in the yearly hosting.
Want to see your own draft?
Send us your business name and town. We reply with a link to your page, usually within a day.
