Website development, built and hosted by one team
Hostlyx is a website development company that plans, designs, builds and hosts business websites on its own cPanel servers. One team handles the domain, hosting, build and later changes, so there is no hand-off between an agency and a host. You get a written fixed quote before work starts, and you own the finished site, content and code.
Most small businesses buy a website from one company, hosting from another and a domain from a third. When something breaks, each points at the others. Hostlyx removes that gap: the developers who build your website also look after the server it runs on, so a fault gets traced and fixed end to end instead of passed around.
We build on the platform that suits the job: WordPress for most business sites, Joomla where a site already runs on it, WooCommerce or Shopify for online stores, DecoNetwork for print shops, and custom code for web applications. Before any work starts you receive a written quote that lists the pages, features and price, so the number you agree is the number you pay.
We work with businesses in India, billed in INR with GST, and with clients in the UK, US, Australia and elsewhere, billed in their own currency through our UK company. Everything is registered in your name: the domain, the hosting account and the site files. If you ever want to move on, you take all of it with you, with no exit fee and no files held back.
What is included
Planning and sitemap
We agree the pages, the content each one needs and the actions you want visitors to take, before any design starts, so the build has a clear brief.
Design that fits your brand
Layouts built around your logo, colours and content, checked on phones, tablets and desktops so every visitor gets a clean, readable page.
The right platform
WordPress, Joomla, WooCommerce, Shopify, DecoNetwork or custom code, chosen for what you need to do, not what we prefer to sell.
Search basics built in
Clean page titles, descriptions, headings, image text, a sitemap and fast loading, so search engines can read the site from launch day.
Hosting and domain on one account
We can register the domain and host the site on our cPanel servers, or work with the host you already have if you prefer.
Handover and support
Training on how to edit pages, full admin access in your name, and the option of a monthly care plan for updates and backups.
Tools and platforms: WordPress, WooCommerce, Joomla, Shopify, DecoNetwork, Laravel, Node.js, React
Packages
Every project is quoted in writing in GBP before work starts, and invoiced by Zorixo Ventures Ltd. The price you agree is the price you pay.

How we work
-
Brief
We talk through your business, audience and goals, and look at any current site, so we understand what the new one has to achieve.
-
Written quote
You get a fixed quote listing every page and feature. Nothing starts until you approve it, and the price does not change unless the scope does.
-
Design and build
We design the key pages first for your feedback, then build the full site on a private staging address you can review.
-
Review and launch
You check content and forms, we fix anything you flag, then we connect the domain, install SSL and put the site live.
-
Aftercare
We train you to make edits and stay on hand for changes, updates and hosting questions after launch.

Questions people ask
How much does website development cost?
It depends on the number of pages, the platform and features such as online payments or logins. Rather than publish a price that does not fit your project, we send a written fixed quote after a short brief. That quote is what you pay, unless you later ask for extra work.
How long does it take to build a website?
A small business site moves faster than a store or application, and the biggest factor is usually how quickly content and feedback arrive. Your quote includes a timeline agreed with you before work begins, with review points along the way so you always know where the build stands.
Do I own my website and the code?
Yes. The domain, hosting account, content, design and code are yours. You get full admin access, and if you ever move to another provider we hand over the files, the database and your domain transfer code.
Can you host the website you build?
Yes. We host sites on our own cPanel servers, and because our developers work on those same servers, a problem with the site or the hosting is fixed by one team. If you already have hosting you like, we can build for that instead.
Which platform should I choose for my website?
For most business sites, WordPress is the practical choice because it is easy to edit and widely supported. Stores often suit WooCommerce or Shopify, print shops suit DecoNetwork, and anything with complex logins or workflows usually needs a custom web application. We recommend one in writing with reasons.
