Website and branding tools for a new UK business
A domain you own, a simple site, a logo, and a way to email customers you actually know.
The company should own the domain login, not a freelancer. IONOS is the registrar and host we introduce for the domain, the site, and a professional mailbox.
Squarespace and Wix are enough for a brochure site, a blog, or a small shop when you do not have a developer. Design the first logo and the first posts in Canva, or start a brand kit in Looka. Print cards with Vistaprint when you are actually meeting people.
A short newsletter is enough until you have a real list. Mailchimp is the general starting point. Klaviyo suits an online shop. Brevo is the lighter option for a small list. Do not buy a list. If you handle customer data, check whether you must pay the ICO data protection fee.
Hydra may earn a commission if you buy through a link on this page. You pay the provider’s price, not a Hydra price. Bank, energy, and finance links should use the provider’s own wording.
