A website you own, looked after by someone who answers.

Most small businesses have one of two problems: a site nobody has touched since 2016, or a page rented inside somebody else's builder that vanishes the month they stop paying.

Run a radio station? That is a different product with its own price — the station theme already exists, so the work is customizing it rather than inventing it, and it costs less. $695 to build, then $99 a month. See StationSites →

What you get

A site that is actually yours

Your domain, your content, your files. Nothing locked inside a platform you cannot leave. If you ever want to take it elsewhere, you can — and we will hand it over without making it difficult.

Designed, not picked from a menu

There is no template for a print shop, a studio, or a contractor. Yours gets built for what your business actually does and who it is trying to reach — which is the reason this costs more than the station product, where the groundwork already exists.

Fast, and readable by everyone

Built as plain, standards-compliant pages rather than a stack of plugins. It loads quickly on a phone in a parking lot with one bar, works with a screen reader, and does not ask your customers to dismiss three pop-ups before they can find your hours.

What it costs

$995
once, to set it up

This is every cost of getting live. Nothing is billed separately.

  • The domain, registered and paid for
  • SSL certificate and hosting, provisioned and configured
  • The build itself — designed for your business, not picked from a menu
  • Going live, including anything that has to be moved off an old host
$125/month
to keep it right

The part most people underestimate. A site nobody maintains is a site that quietly goes wrong.

  • Content changes — hours, staff, prices, events, photos, whatever goes stale
  • Your own page for requesting those changes, showing what is done and what is not
  • Hosting, the domain renewal and the certificate, all kept current
  • Backups, uptime monitoring and security patching
  • A person who answers, rather than a support form

No contract and no minimum term. The monthly is not a payment plan for the build — the build is paid for, and it is yours. If you stop, you keep the site and the domain.

How it goes

  1. We talk. Half an hour. What the business does, who you are trying to reach, what the current site gets wrong.
  2. You see it before you decide anything. A real page with your name on it, not a template with gray boxes.
  3. It goes live. Domain, certificate and hosting all handled. Nothing for you to configure.
  4. It stays current. You get your own page for asking — write it down and it gets done, and you can see what has been.
