  • A clean, professional vector infographic split vertically, comparing "The Attractive Offer" of Fixed Price, No Contract Web Design in the UK with "The IP Trap: The Truth." Across the top, the title reads "FIXED PRICE WEB DESIGN UK: THE TRUTH BEHIND 'NO CONTRACT'." The left side, titled "THE ATTRACTIVE OFFER," shows glowing icons for "NO TIE-IN," "ONE-OFF PAYMENT," and "FULL ACCESS" to a stylized digital building, with a shield protecting the small business owner.

Surprised business owners discover that "CODE OWNERSHIP," "DESIGN RIGHTS," and "SOURCE FILES" are often hidden under a "LICENSE ONLY (NOT OWNERSHIP)" warning, with gears for the platform locked by a hidden figure.
