People looking for a firm rarely compare prices: they are looking for someone to hand a problem to. The site has less selling to do than reassuring — clear areas of practice, real cases, and a first appointment that takes two clicks, not a phone call at ten in the morning.
Fees are the question nobody asks out loud. Explaining how you bill and what a first consultation costs loses the enquiries that were never going to convert, and wins the ones that arrive already prepared.
Most first contact arrives in writing and is judged on how fast the reply comes: a same-day answer beats a better CV. Saying who reads the message and how long you take converts more than another page of qualifications.
The first meeting is the step people hesitate over: whether it costs anything, how long it lasts, what to bring and whether it commits them to anything. Answered on the page, it turns a browse into a booked appointment.
The real question is how long a blocked permit stays blocked. Application and authorisation, fieldwork, then the report: the first and last stretches depend on the authority rather than on you, and pricing the three separately reads as somebody who knows the process.
Silence about finds makes developers more nervous, not less. Describing the routes — record and continue, redesign part of the scheme, preserve in place in rare cases — with sober probabilities and cost consequences is what wins the instruction.
Somebody has to pay for the finds themselves. Conservation, packaging, deposit with the museum, drawings, photography and the final report are separate costs that land months after the digging stops, and listing them prevents the unpleasant invoice next quarter.
The most useful job happens before the land is bought. A desk-based check from a plot reference against the historic environment record answers in days whether a site carries risk, for a fraction of what a surprise after purchase costs.
No filler features: we prioritise what actually brings you customers in your archaeology consultancy — online enquiries and project briefs, services and projects and services and projects — and put it one click away. A straight-to-the-point website converts more than one full of decoration.
Your website will load fast, look flawless on any phone and be easy to edit. We take care of the design, photos and copy so your archaeology consultancy projects the professional image it deserves.
Your website will appear on Google when people search for an archaeology consultancy in your area, because we design it optimised for local rankings from the ground up. A website that gets found and converts: that's the plan.
