Local Launchpad does two things: builds straightforward websites for small, independent businesses, and fixes the security problems an existing website quietly carries, like running a version of PHP that stopped getting security patches years ago.
We read your existing listing, reviews and photos and build a straightforward site from that, not invented copy. No setup fee.
Your site stays exactly as it is. We move what's running underneath it onto a version that still gets security patches.
A message out of nowhere is easy to be wary of, and that is a reasonable default. Here is exactly how we work, so you can check it yourself rather than take our word for it.
No. For a website build, you see the finished page before any money changes hands.
No. The website price is agreed with you up front after a quick consultation, no setup fee, and nothing to sign beyond agreeing to that. The security work is a one-off job, not a subscription.
We wrote up the actual vulnerability, with sources you can check yourself: the CVE numbers, the BBC's own reporting, and what PHP's maintainers actually said. Read it here, not just a page telling you to trust us.
Email goes to a real inbox we read ourselves, not a ticket queue. admin@thelocallaunchpad.co.uk.
Whether it's a new website or a security check on the one you already have, email us and we'll reply from a real person.
