Rowbo and GoDaddy, side by side

GoDaddy prices the first year low, then renews higher, and the build is still on top. Rowbo prices every year the same, at £30 a month, from your Google listing and on your own .com. There is no conversation to have with a builder.

What you get for £30 a month

  • A real multi-page website, built from the Google listing you already have.
  • Your own .com, registered and pointed at it, in the price.
  • Hosting and updates, so there is nothing else to renew and nothing to install.
  • Your photos, your hours, your services and your reviews, already on the page.
  • Any change you want, made by us: the words, the photos, the colours, a whole new page. Just tell us.
  • A site Google can index and ChatGPT can read.
  • We go through your Google listing and fix what is holding it back: the link to your site, the categories, the hours and the photos.
  • Built and checked by us, and yours to look at before you keep it.
  • No setup fee, no minimum term, and you can cancel any month.
  • A price one extra customer a week covers, with nothing else to pay for.
  • Our estimate: around 10 more customers a month. Based on typical monthly searches for a local business in a UK town and what a page-one result gets.

Why owners pick Rowbo

The person searching for your trade in your town opens a website and reads it before they ring. A first-year price is a first year, and the conversation is still yours to have. We do neither. Your Google listing is the brief, the pages come from it, and the .com is registered and pointed at the site as part of the £30. One figure, billed monthly, and it does not step up in year two.

If you want your domain, email and security bought from one seller, GoDaddy is built around exactly that; we build the website.
