Premium website: e-commerce, real estate, hotel, web app

Online shop, estate agency, hotel: what the market sells, at what price and how fast — then three bespoke premium sites you can open yourself. From £1,500 to start then £120 a month.

About this service

On the market, an online shop is either rented or built. Rented, the platform charges for the software alone — £65 a month on Shopify's Grow plan — and a done-for-you shop package costs £100 a month on a 12-month contract, plus VAT, with a site that is often not yours. Built by a UK agency, a basic store is quoted at £2,000 to £6,000 and a custom one at £4,000 to £8,000, then £150 to £400 a month to keep it running. What people rarely check is speed: worldwide, fewer than one site in two passes Google's three speed checks on a phone (48% in July 2025). A bespoke premium site is thought through end to end: it sells, books or values — and it stays fast. Here are three, live.

Examples you can open

Veloro

A simple e-commerce shop: watches, bags and drones, a basket and online checkout, in six languages.

AJ Cassano

A painter's gallery: his works in four ranges, each price set work by work, shipped worldwide, rolled in a tube or framed.

Ureshima Beats

A beatmaker's shop: listen, choose the licence, contract and online payment. Ureshima uploads new beats without going through us, and they appear on the home page without anyone touching the code.

What's included

What makes it premium

The site does something: it takes payments, bookings, calculates a valuation, runs a catalogue, opens a customer area. It carries a back office, data, often several languages and countries. That is what separates it from a simple website, and what gets priced project by project.

The online shop with no commission

Online payment, catalogue, stock, invoices, shipping — and zero commission on your sales, unlike marketplaces. AJ Cassano appeared in Google the day after going live and Ureshima Beats three days after, in August 2026.

The estate agency with instant valuation

A valuation form that returns a calculated range while the prospect is still on the page, and sends the request to your phone. The first to answer wins the instruction.

Hotel, restaurant, bookings

Direct booking with no commission, rooms or menu updated from your phone, native languages. For a restaurant, the Ultra POS till and online ordering have their own offer, country by country.

The cinematic website: the experience before the menu

For a house that sells an experience before it sells a product — a fine-dining restaurant, a hotel, a brand — the website becomes a film: it moves with the scroll, the text writes itself as you go, and the booking stays within reach. The Lumière model shows it for real, and it stays fast: 90 out of 100 for mobile performance, 100 on desktop, measured on 10 September 2026 in PageSpeed Insights. On subscription: £2,400 to start then £160 a month, 12 months minimum; to buy: from £6,999, on quote (indicative price).

How I work

Same method as any site: a conversation, a brief written in your words, a mock-up shown and corrected, then publishing and Search Console. What changes is the build time, which depends on the functions — that is what the quote sets out, line by line, before any payment.

Subscription or purchase, like the others

On subscription, the premium site stays with us, and your domain name, accounts and content remain yours. Bought outright, it is yours: code delivered, domain and accounts in your name. What you pay on top each month — tools, SEO — stops when you decide.

The proof, in pictures

PageSpeed Insights, Lumière model, mobile
The Lumière cinematic model on a phone — PageSpeed Insights, 10 September 2026: 90 for performance. SEO (66) is blocked on purpose: it is a demo model, not a site meant to be found on Google.
PageSpeed Insights, Lumière model, desktop
The same model on desktop: 100 for performance, with a high-definition film that moves with the scroll.

Pricing

Subscription £1,500 to start then £120/month, 12 months minimum · cinematic website £2,400 then £160/month, or from £6,999 to buy, on quote (indicative price) · premium purchase on quote, line by line. International SEO is priced separately.

Frequently asked questions

Why a quote to buy?

Because a site that sells, books or values is built to measure: the number of functions, languages and countries changes the work from single to triple. On subscription the price is fixed: £1,500 to start then £120 a month. To buy, the quote is written line by line, and the price it states is the one that gets signed.

Do you take a commission on my sales?

None. Payments go through your own merchant account. What you pay is the build, then the monthly services you choose.

How long does it take?

It depends on the functions. A thirty-product shop takes a few weeks; a trade application takes longer. The quote gives a timeline, and the site goes live in stages rather than all at once.

What about SEO for a shop?

A shop is ranked product by product and country by country: that is international SEO, also on quote. The SEO page explains the method.
