A web design agency that also hosts and markets your site
Hostlyx is a web design agency and web design company for UK businesses. Our website developers in Bengaluru design and build the site, host it on cPanel and can run its SEO and Google Ads. You contract with Zorixo Ventures Ltd, a UK company, and receive a fixed written quote in pounds before any design work starts.
Choosing a web design agency usually means choosing between a local studio with UK day rates and an overseas freelancer you cannot easily hold to account. We sit between the two. The design and development team is in Bengaluru, India, and the contract, invoice and payment run through Zorixo Ventures Ltd, a UK company, in GBP.
A design agency that stops at launch leaves you to find hosting, a domain and someone to make changes. We do all of that ourselves. The developers who design your pages also run the server, renew the domain and fix the slow page that an SEO audit finds, so a problem is traced end to end instead of passed around.
We design for the job the site has to do: enquiries, bookings, calls or sales. That means agreeing the pages and the action on each one before any visual design starts, then building on WordPress, Shopify, WooCommerce or custom code depending on what you need to edit and how you sell.
Why UK businesses choose us
Design, build and hosting together
One team designs the pages, builds them and keeps the server running. When something breaks you contact one company, and the people who answer built it.
A UK contract with India delivery
Zorixo Ventures Ltd, a UK company, is the contracting party and invoices in GBP. The work happens in Bengaluru, which keeps the quote below typical UK agency rates.
Price agreed before design starts
You receive a written fixed quote listing pages, features and price. Design rounds and changes are written into it, so there is no open-ended day rate.
Your site, your accounts
The domain, hosting account, design files and site code are in your name. If you move on, you take everything with you, with no exit fee.
Marketing on the same desk
The same team can run SEO and Google Ads, so a new landing page or a technical fix ships without briefing a separate developer.

Guides for UK buyers
Questions people ask
How much does a web design agency charge in the UK?
Published UK figures put a small business site at about £3,000 to £6,000 from an agency and £1,500 to £3,000 from a freelancer. Our team is in Bengaluru, so our quotes come in lower. Each one is written, fixed and in GBP before work starts.
Is an offshore web design company safe to hire?
Check three things with any supplier: who you contract with, who owns the work and what happens if you leave. With us the contract is with Zorixo Ventures Ltd, a UK company, payment is by card through Stripe, and everything is registered in your name.
Who owns the website design and code?
You do once the project is paid. The design files, theme and plugin licences bought for you, site code, content and the domain are yours. We hand over logins at launch, and a full copy of the site whenever you ask for it.
Do you handle UK GDPR and cookie consent on new sites?
Yes. Sites launch with a consent banner that holds back analytics and marketing cookies until the visitor agrees, SSL, secure forms and a privacy page for your wording. You approve the policy text as the data controller.
How do time zones work with a team in India?
Bengaluru is 4.5 to 5.5 hours ahead of the UK. We schedule calls in your morning, which is our afternoon. Feedback you send then is usually picked up the same working day, and changes are often waiting when you start the next morning.
