Free hosting included. No monthly platform fees.
Why Workbench

Done properly. Kept simple.

Not cheap-and-cheerful, not another DIY builder you have to babysit. A site that’s built once, built well, and looked after.

Hosting on us

Free hosting, included

Your site is fast, secure and hosted on us. No monthly platform fees, no renewal charges, no bill quietly eating into your budget.

Done for you

You don’t touch code

You tell us about the business; we design, build and launch it. Clear steps, no jargon, nothing for you to wrestle with.

Kept running

Looked after

Optional monthly care keeps it live and up to date. Small changes handled for you, so it never goes stale.

Why it matters

If you’re not online, they can’t find you.

Before anyone walks in or picks up the phone, they look you up. A real website is where that first impression is won or lost.

Sample sites

See the kind of site you’d get.

A couple of example builds, plus this very site. Clean layouts, real content structure, fast on a phone.

How it works

Four steps, and you’re live.

A calm, clear process built around a fixed scope, so you always know what happens next and what it costs.

01

Tell us about it

A short brief: what you do, who you serve, and what you want visitors to do. We shape the words if you’d rather not.

Day 1
02

We design & build

You get a real, clickable site on a private link. Laid out, on-brand, and fast on mobile from the first draft.

3 to 7 days
03

Review & tweak

Rounds of changes on copy, colours, images and layout. We get it right before anything goes public.

2 to 3 days
04

Go live & hosted

We publish it, connect your domain, and host it on us. Add monthly care and we keep it running.

Launch day
The honest bit

Free hosting. You own the files.

Build and hosting are on us. A custom domain (like yourbiz.co.za) is a small yearly fee you pay directly, roughly R150 to R250 a year, or you can launch free on a workbench.locker subdomain. No lock-in. The site is yours to keep.

Getting online pays for itself.

Small businesses that use their digital tools well saw revenue growth nearly 4× higher, and were as likely to win more sales enquiries.

Pricing

Simple, fixed pricing.

One clear price per build. No hourly surprises.

Free hosting

Included on every build. Most studios charge R100 to R500 a month just to keep your site online. Over a year, that’s R1,200 to R6,000 you simply don’t pay.
