Website rescue for small service businesses

I bring websites
back from the dead.

I'm Sam. I take the website that's been quietly costing your business work for years and bring it back to life: pulling traffic from Google and the AI assistants, turning it into leads worth having, with a system behind it that runs the jobs. I rebuild it first, and you only pay if you want it.

Free, no call, no obligation. I go through your site and show you exactly what it is costing you. How it works →

AI assistants answer from whichever website explains the business best. Right now, that's probably not yours.

The problem

Great at the job. Invisible online.

Most firms I look at have the same three problems. None of them are the owner's fault. It's what happens when a website gets built once and left for a decade.

First impressions

Buyers check the website before they ring. A dated one tells them to pick one of the other two firms they're comparing you against.

After hours

If the only way in is a phone number, every evening and weekend enquiry goes to whoever answers online.

The new search

AI assistants answer from whatever they can read. Old site, old facts. They're recommending a ten-year-old version of your business , or a competitor.

How it works

I build it first. You only pay if you want it.

No sales patter, no six-week discovery phase. You send your web address, I review it properly, and the next thing you see is your finished new website, working, on your phone.

You send it

Drop your web address in

That is the whole ask. The box above or the form below, ten seconds on a phone. No call to book, no forms with twelve fields, no salesperson ringing you back.

I review

The full review, evidence first

Companies House, your old sites, your real story and your own photos. What people round your way actually search for, what every local rival ranks for, who really controls your domains, and what the AI assistants say about you today , word for word. Written up so you can see exactly what I found.

I build

Your new setup, finished in days

The site in your own colours and your real story, structured so Google and AI assistants quote you as the answer. Behind it, the working tools: booking, quotes, job tracking. Not wireframes or mockups. Finished, clickable, on your phone.

You decide

You decide

Click through it. Show it to anyone, including your current web company. Like it, and it's live on your domain inside two weeks. Don't, and it's cost you nothing.

The point of Sydex

Your website should do more. And cost less.

Small service businesses have been taught to expect too little. Thousands for a website that just sits there looking pretty, then a monthly retainer for a report nobody reads. Mediocre results at inflated prices have become the industry standard , and most owners have no way of knowing any different.

Sydex exists because a website can and should do a lot more for a lot less. Make the site pull traffic and win the work, wire the systems behind it that run the jobs, and prove the numbers in plain English every day. Site, systems and performance as one working setup. That is the whole point, and it is what every build here ships with as standard.

How I do business

In plain English

Everything in writing: findings, costs, decisions. No jargon, no mystery.

In your name

Your domains in your account, on your card. Lock me out any time.

You own it

The site's yours once it's paid for. Written into the agreement.

Every change logged

A private page on your site: visitors, leads, rankings, and what I did, with its reason.

One at a time

One project on my desk. Yours gets my full attention.

The resurrection, start to finish

Brought back to life. Then put to work.

A rebuild that stops at "looks better" is a waste of your money. The site comes back to life so it can do four jobs, in order:

1 · Brought back to life

The dated site rebuilt properly, and the mess behind it sorted: domains rescued from old agencies, half-dead duplicate sites folded in, every old page forwarding so your Google standing carries over. All in your name.

2 · Pulling traffic

Proper technical SEO, structured data, and a six-month search plan already written against real searches and gaps your competitors leave open. Found by Google, quoted by ChatGPT and AI Overviews.

3 · Turning traffic into leads

Not clicks for the sake of it: quote forms that work at midnight, click-to-call, real reviews, and pages that answer the exact questions buyers ask before they ring. Relevant enquiries, ready to price.

4 · Running the job

A job book built for how your work actually flows: every enquiry priced from one screen, the week's schedule, and renewals chased automatically. Business customers get their own login for booking, quotes and paperwork. And a performance page on your own site shows what it's all earning, daily.

Questions, answered

The questions everyone asks.

How much does a new website cost with Sydex?

£2,950 for the full rebuild, or three payments of £985. Ongoing care is £295 a month with a three month minimum, cancel any time after that. The prices are published because they are the same for everyone, and because hunting for a price is one of the things that makes people distrust agencies.

Is my website too old to be worth fixing?

If it was built more than five or six years ago, struggles on a phone, or has not changed since it went up, it is almost certainly costing you work. The look is the smallest part of the problem. The real damage is being invisible to Google and to the AI assistants people now ask for recommendations. A proper rebuild fixes both at once.

Why does my website get no enquiries?

Three things, usually stacked: buyers cannot find the site, the pages do not answer the questions buyers ask before they ring, and when someone does decide, there is no quick way to act. A site that publishes prices, answers real questions and takes a quote request in under a minute behaves completely differently.

What does Sydex actually do to a website?

Four jobs, in order. Rebuild the site properly in your own branding. Make it pull traffic from Google, AI Overviews and assistants like ChatGPT. Turn that traffic into priced, relevant enquiries. Then run the work behind it with a job book, and prove the numbers on a performance page you can check daily.

Will my business show up in ChatGPT and Google's AI answers?

That is the point of how I build. AI assistants recommend businesses whose websites clearly explain the work, publish prices and carry structured data they can read. Most small business sites have none of that, which is why the assistants name someone else. Part of every review I do is checking what the AI assistants say about your business today, word for word.

Do I keep my domain and my email addresses?

Yes, always. Domains sit in your name, on your card, with your login. Email carries on untouched. If an old agency is holding your domain hostage, getting it back into your hands is part of the job, and more common than you would think.

How long does a rebuild take?

Two to three weeks for the build itself. You see the finished site working, on a real link, before you pay anything. Going live on your own domain happens in a day once you say yes.

What if I do not like it?

Then you do not pay, and we shake hands. I build first and pitch after, so the risk sits with me, not you. There is no deposit and nothing to cancel.

What is included in the £295 a month?

Done-for-you care: content and updates handled, the search plan worked every month, rankings and the AI scoreboard tracked, the performance page updated daily in plain English, and the site kept fast, secure and backed up. Three month minimum, then cancel whenever you like.

Can my current website be saved, or do I need to start again?

Send it in for the free review and you will get an honest answer in writing. Sometimes the bones are good and the fix is smaller than a rebuild. And if the site is actually fine, I will tell you that too and you have lost nothing.
