Everything needed to go live.
Every project includes the whole job — not just the pretty part.
Design made for you
Layout, type and colour chosen around your business — not a template with your logo dropped in.
Built for phones first
Most local searches happen on a phone. Every screen size is designed properly, not just shrunk down.
Hand-built and fast
No page-builder bloat. Pages load quickly on mobile data, which is what visitors and Google both reward.
Findable on Google
Page titles, descriptions and link previews set up, with your Google Business and Maps details pointed at the right pages.
Launched properly
Domain and hosting connected, HTTPS on, and redirects from your old site so existing links keep working.
Yours at handover
You keep the domain, the hosting account and the files, plus a short guide for making everyday edits yourself.
From first call to launch.
Four steps, and you only ever need to be available for two of them.
- First call
- Design
- Build
- Launch
Step 1 of 4
First call
About 30 minutes, and the only homework is turning up.
A short call about your business, what the site needs to do, and who it's for. No charge, no obligation.
Call or email — your choice
Some people think better in writing. If you would rather send answers than talk through them, that works just as well.
Nothing to prepare
A Facebook page, an old site or a printed menu is plenty to start from. I'll tell you what's missing.
A fixed quote follows
You get the scope and the price in writing before anything begins, so there is no running meter.
Prices up front, before we start.
Starting points rather than final quotes — but you'll have a fixed number in writing before any work begins.

The things people ask first.
How much will my site actually cost?
The plan price covers design, build, launch and handover, and the custom domain is included free. Hosting is billed monthly and scales with the plan — $75/mo on Basic, $175/mo on Standard, $345/mo on Premium. You get a fixed quote before any work starts, so there is no running meter.
How long does it take?
A five-page site is usually about a week from the point I have your content, and the larger builds scale from there. The main thing that slows a project down is waiting on text and photos, and I'll tell you exactly what I need up front.
Can I edit the site myself afterwards?
Yes. Text, prices, hours and photos are set up so you can change them without touching code, and the handover guide walks through it. If you would rather not deal with it, the Standard and Premium plans include monthly edits, and a care plan can cover them on Basic.
What if I already have a website?
Rebuilds are the common case. Your existing content moves across, old page addresses redirect to the new ones so search results and printed links keep working, and the switch happens in a single evening.
Do I need to have my text and photos ready?
It helps, but no. We can start from whatever you already have — a Facebook page, an old site, a printed menu — and I'll tell you what's missing. Light copy editing is included on Standard and Premium.

Live in about a week
