Double Brand · KZN North Coast

Stop paying commission on bookings that should be yours.

We build websites that get North Coast guesthouses and trades found on Google and contacted direct. Your site is live within 72 hours, and we keep it producing enquiries every month after that. If we sent you a video about your business, this page shows you exactly what we do and what it costs.

Every booking through a portal costs you 15 to 18%

If you run a guesthouse or self-catering property on the North Coast, do the sums on your last platform booking.

Most guests never get the choice. They search for accommodation in Ballito or Umhlanga, the portals hold the first page of Google, and the commission comes off the top before you see a cent.

Trades lose the same way. When someone in Salt Rock needs a solar installer or an emergency plumber, the job goes to whoever comes up first and answers first. Doing better work does not help if nobody finds you.

A website on its own does not fix this. What fixes it is a site built to rank for local searches, kept active on Google every month, and measured by the enquiries it produces.

Who this is for

Guesthouses, B&Bs and self-catering

Umhlanga to Zinkwazi. Your guests are already searching for places like yours; the question is whether they land on your site or a portal's. We build you a fast site with WhatsApp enquiry and your business details structured the way Google reads them, so the guests who find you book you, and the full amount lands in your account.

Solar, electrical, plumbing and security

The Ballito to Umhlanga corridor. One solar installation or security contract is worth thousands, so being the business that comes up when a neighbour searches matters more here than in any other trade. We make sure you come up, your site loads fast on a phone, and reaching you takes one tap on WhatsApp.

Simple pricing, no surprises

Two once-off builds and one monthly plan. All prices in Rand. Nothing hidden.

Starter One-Pager

R4,500 once-off

A complete single-page website: hero, services, photo gallery, WhatsApp button, contact form, and your business details structured the way Google reads them for nearby searches. Live within 72 hours of receiving your details.

Local Visibility Plan

R750 per month

The website gets you found once. This keeps you found. Every month we:

  • host and secure your site and renew your domain
  • optimise your Google Business Profile and post to it, so you keep appearing in local searches and on Maps
  • run your review system: a QR code for check-out or the job site, plus WhatsApp follow-up templates that turn happy customers into Google reviews
  • send you a one-page report of what the site produced: calls, WhatsApp clicks, form fills, direct bookings

A four-night family stay at R2,500 a night is R10,000. The platform takes R1,500 to R1,800 of that. One direct booking like it covers the R750 a month Local Visibility Plan twice.

Standard Multi-Page

R7,500 once-off

Three to five pages for businesses with more to show. Separate pages for your rooms or your services, each built around the enquiry or the booking, plus everything in the Starter.

Ad-hoc changes without a plan are R450 per request. Additional pages on an existing site are R750 each.

How it works

  1. Tell us about your business

    You fill in a 15-minute questionnaire: your services, your photos, your logo, what makes you different. That is your entire homework. You never write a word of website copy; we write all of it.

  2. We build, you review

    Within 72 hours of receiving your details you get a link to your finished site, plus a short video walking you through it. Then comes one consolidated round of changes. List everything you want adjusted, and we make it right.

  3. You go live

    We connect your domain and the site goes live. We register the domain in your name from day one. Enquiries come straight to your WhatsApp and your inbox.

  4. We keep it working

    This is where most web designers disappear. We don't. On the Local Visibility Plan we keep your Google presence active, help you gather reviews, and report every month on the calls, clicks and enquiries the site produced. A website wins bookings by staying visible. Staying visible is our job, not yours.

Why Double Brand

We live and work on the North Coast, in the same market you do. We know what guests search for in season, and we can meet you face to face instead of through a ticket system.

You will never have to wonder whether the site is working. Every Local Visibility client gets a one-page report each month showing calls, WhatsApp clicks, form fills and direct bookings. If the numbers are weak, we see it the same month you do, and we act on it.

Your site runs on a worldwide hosting network, not a server in an office. Loadshedding cannot take it down, because there is nothing local to switch off.

Your domain belongs to you. Full stop. We register it in your name from day one, so if you ever leave, you take your web address and your site content with you. We would rather earn your business every month than lock it in.

Before you pay anything, you get a one-page agreement covering what is included, how the single revision round works, and the support you can hold us to. We answer non-urgent requests within two business days. If your site is down, we respond the same day.

Questions owners ask

What actually happens in the 72 hours?
The clock starts when we have your completed questionnaire, logo and photos. We write the copy, build the site, structure your business details for Google, and send you a preview link with a short walkthrough video. The 72 hours ends with your finished site ready for review, not with a rough draft.
What do you need from me?
About 15 minutes of your time: the questionnaire, your logo, your photos and your contact details. We write every word of the site. If your photos are thin, we will tell you, and work with what you have.
I already have a domain, or an old site. What happens to it?
We point your existing domain at the new site, and it stays registered in your name. Anything worth keeping from the old site comes across. If you have no domain yet, we register one for you, in your name, as part of the build.
Can I cancel the monthly plan?
Yes. The one-page agreement you sign before paying sets out the cancellation terms, and there is no long contract tying you in. Because your domain is in your name, cancelling never puts your web address at risk.
Who owns what if I leave?
You own your domain, your content and your images, and the site itself is built so another host can run it. We keep no hostages. That is deliberate.

Start with a free review of your online presence

Send us your business name on WhatsApp. We will look at how you currently show up when someone searches for what you do, and send you a short video showing what we would change. It costs nothing, and it is yours to keep whether we ever work together or not.
