A product by KenForte
Websites built for you,
and looked after ever since.
You describe what the site is for. We design it, build it and show it to you. Nothing goes live until you say so — and once it does, hosting, certificates and updates stay our problem, not yours.
Schools, trusts, publishers, manufacturers and small businesses run on KenSites today.
Not a website builder
There is no editor to learn, no blank canvas, no evening lost to dragging boxes around. Most people running a school or a small business do not want a website tool. They want a website.
So we build it
A person designs and builds your site, using what you already have — your words, your photographs, your logo. You review it on a private address, ask for changes, and approve it when it is right.
Some of what we have built
See all our work
What is included, without asking
Your own domain, with HTTPS
Your site runs on your own address with a certificate that renews itself. Nothing expires at midnight on a bank holiday.
A preview address while we work
Every site gets an address on kensites.com from the first day, so you can watch it take shape and share it with colleagues before launch.
Fast pages, no clutter
Sites are hand-built rather than assembled from plugins, so they load quickly on an ordinary phone connection.
A portal for your team
Sign in at manage.kensites.com to see your websites. You decide who else can see them, and what they may do.
Changes when you need them
Term dates, a new trustee, a price list, a photograph from last week. Send it over and it gets done.
Backups and monitoring
Kept and checked by us. You should never have to think about it, and with us you do not.
The short version
The stages, and the one that is yours
The site does not go live because we think it is finished. It goes live because you approved it.
The longer version-
01
We talk
What the site is for, who it is for, and what you already have.
-
02
We build it
On a private address you can visit from the first week.
-
03
You review it
As many rounds as it takes. This is the part people usually skip, and it shows.
-
04
You approve it
Then we point your domain at it and switch on the certificate.
-
05
We keep it running
Hosting, renewals, backups and the changes you send us.
Tell us what you need
A sentence or two is enough to start: what the organisation does, and what the website is for. We will tell you honestly whether we are the right people for it.
