QUICK ON THE NET Website Builder History and
Key Features
Discover the history of a pioneering website builder, featuring branding tools, SEO features, and mobile optimisation that empowered the creation of thousands of websites.


A Look Back at Our History in Website Creation
Launched in London in 2003, the QUICK ON THE NET website builder helped entrepreneurs, clubs, and organisations build their online presence with unmatched ease. Designed for users with no prior web design experience, the platform offered a superfast site builder, dazzling web templates, and intuitive tools that made creating a website feel effortless.
The end result was a collection of powerful websites with engaging designs that felt anything but template-driven. Each build carried its own unique personality and character — a reflection of each client’s vision, and not a generic mould.
What made QUICK ON THE NET truly unique was its all-in-one approach. Users could access a complete website toolkit, including web hosting, template design, and branding tools, all rolled into a single service. With just a few clicks, customers could upload their logo, apply brand colours, and customise their layouts to reflect their identity — whether for business, sport, or personal use.
The platform embraced the rise of social media integration, allowing users to connect their websites to Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and more. Every page came equipped with sharing features, helping users boost visibility and engagement across social platforms. QUICK ON THE NET also made search engine optimisation (SEO) simple, offering step-by-step guidance to help users optimise pages and monitor performance on Google and Bing.
Ahead of its time, the builder delivered mobile phone optimisation automatically. Websites adapted seamlessly to phones, tablets, and desktop screens, ensuring a responsive experience without any extra setup. Users could also enhance their sites with free widgets, including YouTube videos, PayPal buttons, interactive maps, and translation tools, adding dynamic features with just a snippet of code.
QUICK ON THE NET’s legacy lay in its unwavering commitment to speed, simplicity, and creative freedom. From the instant free trial to the customisable templates, it empowered thousands to launch websites that looked great and performed brilliantly — all without needing technical expertise.

A Special Tribute to the Creative Minds Who Powered Our Platform
Over two decades, QUICK ON THE NET was more than just a website builder — it was a creative partnership with thousands of clients who brought the platform to life. From the very beginning, it was your ideas, your feedback, and your passion that shaped the evolution of our service.
Our customers came from all walks of life — entrepreneurs, creatives, sports clubs, consultants, and small businesses across sectors like motoring, property, accommodation, art, photography, recruitment, health, education, and e-commerce. Many had no prior experience in web design, yet they embraced the tools with confidence, proving that great websites could be built by anyone with a vision.
You controlled the creative decisions. Whether designing a site for a youth football club, a legal practice, or a personal portfolio, you made each website original, authentic, and purpose-driven. Your trust in our templates, your use of our branding tools, and your willingness to explore new features helped us refine and improve the platform year after year.
Behind the scenes, our team worked hard to support you — but it was your creativity and commitment that made QUICK ON THE NET truly special. You didn’t need to be a technical expert. You just logged in, made your changes, and watched your ideas go live. And when help was needed, we were proud to respond quickly — often within minutes — because your success was our priority.
To every client who joined us on this journey: once again, we thank you. You made the platform worthwhile. You turned web pages into stories, templates into brands, and a simple idea into something extraordinary.
The sun has set on our website builder, closing a remarkable chapter — and from 1st November 2025, a new beginning takes shape with a bold new mission in travel content and AI technology.
