## Guides
- [Custom software development: the complete UK guide](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/custom-software-development-guide/index.md): Custom software development is designing and building software around how one organisation works, rather than adapting a generic product. This guide covers when it pays off, how projects are priced and run, how to choose a UK partner, and how to keep the result secure and supported after launch.
- [Custom software vs off-the-shelf: how to decide](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/custom-software-vs-off-the-shelf/index.md): Choose off-the-shelf software when your needs are common and speed matters most. Choose custom software when your workflow is a competitive advantage, you are gluing tools together with spreadsheets, or per-user licence costs and limits are holding you back.
- [How much does custom software cost?](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/how-much-does-custom-software-cost/index.md): The cost of custom software depends mainly on scope: the features you need, the number of users, integrations, design depth and compliance requirements. Fixed-scope pricing keeps it predictable. The quickest way to a realistic figure is to describe your project, users, timeline and features in an instant quote.
- [The custom software development process, step by step](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/custom-software-development-process/index.md): A custom software project moves through discovery, a fixed-scope quote, design and prototyping, build in short sprints, testing, launch, and ongoing support. At LOLCorp a focused first release typically reaches production in about 4–6 weeks.
- [When to replace spreadsheets with custom internal software](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/replace-spreadsheets-with-internal-software/index.md): Replace spreadsheets with custom internal software when they hold critical processes, multiple people edit them, errors carry real risk, or reporting takes hours. Start with the single workflow that wastes the most time, and migrate data in stages.
- [How to choose a custom software development company](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/choose-custom-software-development-company/index.md): Choose a custom software development company by checking its verifiable track record, who actually does the work, how it prices, who owns the code, how it runs projects and what support it offers after launch. Ask for real examples and talk to past clients before you sign anything.
- [Fixed price vs time and materials software contracts](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/fixed-price-vs-time-and-materials/index.md): A fixed-price contract agrees scope and cost up front, so the budget is known. Time and materials bills for effort as it happens, which is flexible but open-ended. Fixed scope suits most business systems; time and materials suits genuinely exploratory work.
- [Software requirements brief template](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/software-requirements-brief-template/index.md): A good software brief covers the problem, the users, the key workflows, must-have features, integrations, constraints and timeline in plain language. It does not need to be technical. One page is enough for a developer to give you a realistic estimate.
- [Who owns the code in a custom software project?](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/who-owns-the-code-custom-software/index.md): In UK law the creator of software generally owns the copyright unless it is assigned to you in writing. If you commission software, make sure your contract assigns ownership of the code and related IP to you, and that you receive the source code, credentials and documentation at handover.
- [Low-code vs custom software: which is right for you?](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/low-code-vs-custom-software/index.md): Low-code is quick to start and good for simple internal apps with standard needs. Custom software costs more upfront but gives full control over performance, integrations, security and ownership as you scale. Choose by how complex, long-lived and strategic the system is.
- [Custom CRM development: when building beats buying](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/custom-crm-development/index.md): Buy a CRM when standard sales pipelines fit your process. Build a custom CRM when your workflow is unusual, you need deep integrations or tight permissions, or per-seat fees and workarounds are costing more than a tailored system would. Start with the core pipeline and grow from there.
- [8 business processes worth automating first](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/business-process-automation-workflows/index.md): Automate repetitive, rules-based work that wastes the most time or carries the most risk: approvals, invoicing, onboarding, reporting, ticket routing, quoting, data syncing and reminders. Start with the single workflow where hours saved are greatest and the steps are clearest.
- [How to build a SaaS product: from idea to first customers](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/how-to-build-a-saas-product/index.md): To build a SaaS product, validate the problem, scope a minimum viable product around one core job, design for multiple customers from day one, add subscription billing and security, launch to early users and iterate on real usage. Keep the first release small and the architecture ready to grow.
- [MVP development: how to scope a minimum viable product](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/mvp-development-scope/index.md): Scope an MVP around one core user journey that proves your idea. List features, rank them must, should, could and won’t, build only the musts, and launch to real users quickly. An MVP is the smallest release that teaches you whether the product is worth building further.
- [Core Web Vitals explained: what they are and how to pass](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/core-web-vitals-explained/index.md): Core Web Vitals are three measures of real-world page experience: Largest Contentful Paint (loading, good at 2.5 seconds or less), Interaction to Next Paint (responsiveness, 200 milliseconds or less) and Cumulative Layout Shift (visual stability, 0.1 or less), assessed at the 75th percentile of visits.
- [Website maintenance: what is included and why it matters](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/website-maintenance-what-is-included/index.md): Website maintenance keeps a site secure, fast and available: applying updates and patches, testing backups, monitoring uptime, checking security and performance, and fixing issues. Management plans go further, adding hands-on change requests, reporting and design revisions.
- [Cloud cost optimisation: 9 ways to cut your cloud bill](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/cloud-cost-optimisation/index.md): Cut cloud costs by measuring spend first, then right-sizing oversized resources, switching off idle environments, deleting unused assets, committing to discounts for steady workloads, using cheaper storage tiers, reducing data transfer and setting budgets and alerts. Review monthly, because usage changes.
- [Software security basics for UK businesses](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/software-security-basics-uk/index.md): Secure software starts with access control, encryption, tested backups, prompt patching and secure development practice, aligned to the OWASP Top 10. UK businesses should also plan for UK GDPR duties and consider Cyber Essentials certification. Ask suppliers how they handle each from the start.
- [How much does a website cost in the UK?](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/how-much-does-a-website-cost-uk/index.md): A website in the UK can cost anywhere from a few hundred pounds for a simple template site to tens of thousands for a custom store or web application. The price is driven by the number of pages, how much is custom-designed, the functionality needed (payments, accounts, bookings) and the integrations. A small custom business website often lands around a thousand pounds or a little more, and a plain landing page can cost well under that.
- [Web design vs web development: what is the difference?](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/web-design-vs-web-development/index.md): Web design is the planning and creation of how a website looks, reads and feels to use: layout, typography, colour, imagery and user flows. Web development is building it so it works: writing the code, connecting databases and payments, and making the site fast, secure and maintainable. Most business websites need both, ideally done by one team.
- [Shopify vs WooCommerce vs custom ecommerce: which should you choose?](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/shopify-vs-woocommerce-vs-custom-ecommerce/index.md): Shopify is the quickest way to launch a straightforward online store. WooCommerce suits businesses that already run WordPress and want flexibility. A custom ecommerce build makes sense when you have complex pricing, B2B accounts, unusual workflows or integrations that platforms handle badly, and you want full ownership.
- [How to hire a website developer in the UK](https://lolcorp.co.uk/guides/how-to-hire-a-website-developer-uk/index.md): To hire a website developer in the UK, define your goals and budget, shortlist freelancers or agencies with relevant work, ask for a fixed, written scope, check who owns the code, and speak to past clients. Agencies cost more than freelancers but provide design, project management, testing and continuity.
