Why this site exists
The exact-match domain taxbands.co.uk promises two things at once: UK income tax bands and council tax bands. Every SERP competitor splits these. The site unifies them on one screen, with a single resolver that takes a salary, a postcode and a regime, and shows both answers without scrolling.
The audience
UK PAYE professionals on £30,000 to £150,000 looking up a band; self-employed contractors and directors checking the dividend uplift; bill payers checking their council tax band; pension planners modelling the 60% trap.
Funding
The site is funded by Digital Signet. There are no banner ads, no sponsored links and no affiliate referrals. Sources and methodology are documented in the method ledger.
