The Problem

Most small professional and service businesses know their online presence matters. Most of them are doing almost nothing about it.

The pattern is familiar: a website built five or six years ago by a local agency, still running on WordPress, last updated when someone remembered to. No analytics worth reading. No SEO strategy. No social presence. No one inside the firm accountable for whether any of it is generating new business.

The blocker isn't budget - these firms have budgets. It's friction. Getting a new website built means another months-long agency project, another upfront invoice, another cycle that ends with no one managing what was built. What firms actually need is a partner who takes ownership of their online presence and keeps it working - permanently. That's the problem OLXR Presence solves.

What This Means for Your Business

A well-managed website doesn't generate business directly. It removes the reasons businesses don't come to you - which is the same outcome, viewed from a different angle.

For most small professional and service businesses, this means three things in practice:

01

Your website stops undermining your reputation.

Most professional firms have decent reputations and outdated websites. The website is the thing prospects, referrals, and competitors check first - and a weak one quietly contradicts everything else you've built. A modern, well-maintained site stops the contradiction.

02

Your referrals turn into clients.

Most professional services growth comes from referrals - and the first thing a referred prospect does is look you up. A credible site turns that lookup into a confident decision. A weak one turns it into doubt. The work to gain the referral was already done; the website either closes it or breaks it.

03

You stop falling behind firms that have invested.

The firms that look most credible online aren't necessarily the biggest or oldest. They're the ones who've decided their online presence matters and acted on it. Without that, you're competing on substance against firms who match your substance and have a better front door.

Your reputation is the asset your business runs on. The website is what people see before they meet you. A managed website makes sure those two things match.

What's Included

OLXR Presence is a managed service on a single monthly fee. You get a bespoke website built on our stack - not a WordPress template - plus an ongoing relationship with a senior engineer who actively manages and improves your digital presence on your behalf. One point of accountability. Done for you.

Bespoke website

Designed and built on the OLXR stack - not WordPress, not a shared template. Hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS), the enterprise platform used by Netflix, Airbnb, and major banks. Includes secure HTTPS encryption (the padlock in your browser), automatic security updates, and uptime monitoring.

SEO and analytics report

A monthly SEO and analytics report covering search impressions, top pages, keyword trends, and a plain-English summary of what improved and what to focus on next. Built from your Google Search Console and Analytics data, delivered to your inbox every month without you needing to ask.

AI-assisted blog creation

Help with blog content that's actually realistic for a busy practice - topic suggestions based on your target keywords, AI-assisted drafts you can shape and publish quickly. Enough scaffolding to make sure SEO content actually gets written, without it being our voice instead of yours.

Branded social media graphics

Branded social media graphics through RepeatPosts, our own social graphics platform. Your brand colours and logo applied to a library of professional templates. Customise the text, download sized correctly for every platform.

Regular updates and reporting

Regular updates on site status, performance, and what's been done - delivered in a way that makes sense without needing technical knowledge.

Senior engineer accountable for results

Owen Jones - OLXR's founder and lead engineer - supports every Presence client directly. Each tier includes a monthly allowance of senior engineer time for updates, content changes, and questions.

Every Presence website is built on a shared foundation - common components and reusable patterns refined across clients. Improvements for one client raise the bar for all. No agency handoffs.

Pricing

Three tiers. All include the full platform - the difference is the scope of the website build and the depth of features included in the monthly service. All tiers are on a 12-month minimum term, then rolling monthly with 30 days' notice.

All prices exclude VAT.

Need something more bespoke?

Every Presence website is built on our own stack, which means we can extend it however your business needs - new features, custom integrations, full bespoke modules. Anything beyond your tier scope is quoted at our usual senior engineer rates.

How This Compares to a Traditional Agency

Most agencies sell a project. We sell a partnership. Here's the practical difference.

Traditional Agency

  • £5,000–£10,000 upfront, then nothing - you're on your own
  • Three to four months of discovery and build
  • Disappears after launch - you manage hosting, updates, SEO yourself
  • No one accountable for ongoing performance
  • Site slowly outdates until you start the cycle again in five years

OLXR Presence

  • £2,000–£3,000 setup, then £399–£899 per month
  • Four to six weeks from agreement to live site
  • Hosting, updates, SEO, content - all managed every month
  • One senior engineer accountable for the result
  • Site improves continuously - no five-year rebuild cycle

The bigger difference isn't the price. It's that someone is accountable for your online presence twelve months from now, not just on launch day.

How It Works

The process is deliberately short - most clients move from first conversation to signed agreement within two weeks, and from agreement to a live website within four to six weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions

It's built for small professional and service businesses - accountants, law firms, financial advisers, consultancies, surveyors, clinics, and similar - who recognise their online presence isn't doing what it should, but don't want to manage another website project themselves. Typical businesses have between two and twenty employees.

Presence is a new service line, so we don't have a published portfolio of Presence sites yet. We're actively building it - every Presence client agrees, as part of the standard agreement, to let us feature their finished website on our portfolio and refer to the work in case studies and outreach. In return, early clients get the founder's full attention, real influence over how the service develops, and become the references future clients see.

If your business has confidentiality requirements that prevent public showcasing, talk to us in scoping - we can usually find a way to work together, but it's worth raising upfront.

Yes. The website is yours. When you leave OLXR Presence - at the end of the 12-month term, or any time after - we provide the codebase and hand off hosting in an orderly transition.

The contract becomes a rolling monthly agreement with 30 days' notice. Around month ten or eleven, we'll typically discuss a refresh or any new development you'd like - improvements, new features, design updates - and how to structure that going forward. There's no obligation to extend or renew; you're in control of what happens next.

The 12-month minimum term is a real commitment, structured to make the financial model work for both sides - the upfront build cost is amortised across the year of monthly fees, so leaving early breaks the maths.

Specifically:
  • Before go-live: the £2,000-£3,000 setup fee covers our build work to that point. If you exit before launch, the setup fee is non-refundable, but no further fees apply.
  • After go-live: the contract runs to the end of the 12-month term. If you need to exit early, you pay 50% of the remaining months as a settlement.
  • After 12 months: the contract becomes rolling monthly with 30 days' notice. Leave any time, no penalty.

Anything outside the tier scope - significant new features, integrations, or custom development beyond what's included as standard updates - is quoted separately. We'll always tell you upfront when something falls outside scope rather than absorbing it and resenting it later.

Things like content changes, image swaps, copy updates, small tweaks, and questions about the platform. If you ask us to add a new feature, build an integration, or do significant new work, that's quoted separately or built using your tier's development capacity.

A connection between your website and a third-party service - typically a CRM, email platform, calendar, or payment processor - using their published API. Standard integrations from a defined list are included in your tier. Bespoke integrations to legacy or in-house systems are quoted separately.

Presence sites are built on the same stack we use for our bespoke software work - ASP.NET Core, hosted on AWS. In practical terms: faster page loads, better security, and no WordPress plugin-and-patch cycle to manage. You don't need to know any of this to use the site - we handle all the technical layers.

WordPress sites need constant maintenance - plugins updating, security patches, things breaking when something changes. Squarespace and Wix are templates you build yourself, then manage yourself.

Presence is different on both counts. The website is bespoke (not a template) and the relationship is managed (not DIY). We build it, host it, monitor it, update it, and report on it - every month.

No. We handle everything technical on your behalf. If you want to be involved - writing blog posts, choosing topics, customising graphics - we'll make that easy. If you'd rather it just runs in the background and reports come to you each month, that works too. You decide how hands-on you want to be.
