Accountant website design and SEO: win the client before the first call
Clients choose an accountant they trust with their money. If your website does not signal that in ten seconds, they move on to the firm that does. We build the site, then get it found on Google and recommended by AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity.
What does a website for an accountancy firm need, and what does it cost?
A website for an accountancy firm needs to do three things: show who you help best (limited companies, contractors, landlords, a sector), prove you are trustworthy (real people, credentials, reviews, years in practice), and make the next step obvious (a call or a quote form on every page). We build that from £1,200 for up to eight pages, as one fixed price agreed in writing, usually live 2 to 5 working days after all your content arrives. Getting found is a separate monthly plan: local SEO for "accountant in [your town]" searches, a fully optimised Google Business Profile, and the answer-engine work that gets you named by ChatGPT. Fouracre Accountancy in Leighton Buzzard is the example: we built their site and profile, and ChatGPT and Perplexity now name them first for a family-run accountant for small businesses and landlords in Bedfordshire and Buckinghamshire (November 2026).
Why do accountants lose clients online?
- Your website looks like every other accountant's, so nothing sets you apart.
- New clients come almost entirely from word of mouth, which you cannot plan around.
- You do not show up when someone searches "accountant near me" or "accountant in [your town]".
- When people ask ChatGPT for an accountant, it names someone else.
- The site does not make it obvious who you help best, so you attract the wrong enquiries.
What does being hard to find cost an accountancy firm?
Every month you are invisible is a month of good clients handed to the firm that shows up first on Google or in ChatGPT. Referrals are wonderful until a quiet quarter arrives, and then you are marketing from a standing start at the worst possible time.
How do we get accountants found on Google and AI?

How much do a website and SEO cost for an accountancy firm?
A website of up to eight pages is £1,200 and up to twenty pages is £1,800, with basic SEO included, usually live 2 to 5 working days after all your content arrives. Getting found is the SEO and AI visibility plan: SEO (showing up on Google) plus AEO and GEO (being the answer AI tools such as ChatGPT give), from £350 a month on a 12-month Local plan, with Area from £550 and Growth from £750 a month. A Google Business Profile on its own is £300 one-off. Custom apps and software start from £10,000 and are scoped after a short call. Every price is fixed in writing before we start, and there is no VAT to add.
Which businesses like yours have we helped?
We built the website and did the SEO and Google Business Profile for Fouracre Accountancy, a long-established Leighton Buzzard firm. Ask ChatGPT or Perplexity for a family-run accountant for small businesses and landlords in Bedfordshire and Buckinghamshire and both name them first (November 2026).

How much does a website for an accountancy firm cost?
A website of up to eight pages is £1,200 and up to twenty pages is £1,800, with basic SEO included, as one fixed price confirmed in writing after a short call. Ranking on Google and in AI is a separate monthly plan, from £350 a month.
How long until we rank for "accountant" searches?
Google usually starts to move in about three months, and AI assistants often pick things up faster. Google decides the rankings. We do the work that earns them, every month.
Do you understand regulated and compliance wording?
Yes. We write the site with you so the wording is accurate for your professional body, and you approve everything before it goes live.
Can you help us get known for one specialism?
That is often the fastest win. We build a clear page for each specialism, contractors, limited companies, a sector you love, so you rank for the work you actually want.
Do we need a Google Business Profile as well as a website?
Yes. For "accountant near me" searches the map results appear above the websites, and the profile is what puts you there. We set it up and optimise it as part of the plan, or on its own.
Do you only work with UK firms?
No. We work with firms in the UK, the US, Canada, Australia and Europe, all delivered online.
