For accountancy practices

Referrals have a ceiling.

Most practices grow on word of mouth until it stops being enough. We build websites for accountancy practices and other professional services firms: sites that carry on where a referral stops and answer what a prospect checks first. Every enquiry goes straight to the right person.

Your website is already being read. It is just not being read the way you think.

Almost nobody arrives at a practice website cold and decides to hire you from it. What happens is quieter: someone gives your name, and the first thing that person does is look you up. Your website is not making the introduction. It is being checked against it.

Which means a brochure site does not lose you the clients it fails to attract. It loses you the ones you were already referred.

The brochure and the filter

  1. 01 / 04

    They've been given your name.

    Almost nobody hires an accountant cold. Someone recommends you, and the first thing they do is look you up.

  2. 02 / 04

    A brochure gets skimmed.

    “A comprehensive range of services” gives them nothing to check. The right clients drift off, and the calls you get are the ones you'd rather not take.

  3. 03 / 04

    Your site does the sorting.

    Who you work with, what you charge, where you stand on Making Tax Digital and how getting started works, answered before anyone calls.

  4. 04 / 04

    The calls you want.

    More of the enquiries that come through already fit. The rest got their answer and moved on, without costing you an hour on the phone.

What we build

Six things a practice website needs that most do not have.

Services structured the way clients search

Separate, findable pages for self assessment, limited company accounts, payroll and VAT. Not one page called Services with eleven bullet points, because that is not what anybody types.

A switching page that does the reassuring

Practices grow by taking clients from other practices, and almost none address the fear of it. Who tells the old accountant. What happens to the records. How long it takes.

The fee question, handled on purpose

Publishing numbers is your call. Having an answer is not. Silence reads as expensive, and sends people off to collect three quotes instead of one.

Credentials that are visible, not filed away

ICAEW, ACCA, AAT, the practising certificate, the indemnity cover. Prospects check these first, and on most practice sites they sit in the footer or nowhere.

Software pages, because people search by tool

A business on Xero or QuickBooks often searches by the software they already use. Almost no practice has a page for it, which makes it the cheapest win on the list.

Secure document handling that looks it

If clients are emailing you ID documents, the site should offer a better route and look serious about it. We build a portal as custom work when a practice needs one, and say so when it does not.

Proof

Everything above, already built once.

The Wright Books is an Exeter accountancy and bookkeeping practice we built for. It has the service pages split the way people search, the switching page, the Making Tax Digital page, the credentials on the first screen, and a full pricing page with a package a visitor builds themselves. It is live. You can open it and check every claim on this page against it.

It launched recently, so we are not going to quote you a results figure we have not measured. What we can show you is the build, and the thinking behind it in nineteen articles written by the person who would build yours.

Charlie Norona builds them. You deal with him from the first conversation to launch and after it, not an account manager. That is also the limit on how many practices we take at once, and we would rather say so than pretend to be bigger.

The homepage. The promise in the headline, and an enquiry form already open beside it.

Asked. Answered.

Have you built a website for an accountancy practice before?

Yes. The Wright Books is an AAT licensed practice in Exeter, and the site is live at wright-books.com, including the published pricing and the switching page. Our other published work is in commercial cleaning, construction and tiling, so you can see the range as well as the sector.

How much does a website for an accountancy practice cost?

The investment for a practice website is £3,500, live in 14 days, or 10% off. Then a monthly plan: Care at £95, Growth at £450 or Partner at £1,250 a month. Growth is the plan we recommend for most practices: it runs your Google Business Profile for you, adds one improvement every month aimed at more enquiries, and includes one tool from our library, such as the salary vs dividends calculator. No VAT to add. There is a fuller breakdown in our article on what a practice should spend.

Can you help with the compliance side?

We build the website and we are careful with the things that commonly cause problems, like how services and any fee information are presented. We are not compliance advisers, and anything that touches regulated advice should be signed off by someone who is. Your professional body's guidance always wins over ours.

Do you only work with practices in Devon?

No. We are based in Exeter, and our clients so far are in Devon, but the work is remote-first and the process does not need us in the room. We take on practices anywhere in the UK.

Do we have to move away from our current host or software?

Your domain, email and practice software stay yours, and stay where they are. If we build your new site, we host it, because we only look after sites we build.

How long does it take?

Live in 14 days, or 10% off the build. The 14 days start once we have your photos and details, and pause for anything waiting on you, such as sign-off or access to your domain.

Every enquiry, straight to the right person.
