Pricing

One simple plan. Everything included.

There is exactly one way to work with me, and the whole arrangement is laid out on this page in plain language. I design the site, build it, host it, maintain it, and stay with the work for as long as you are with me. There are no tiers above or below the standard plan, no surprise add-ons, and no upsells later in the engagement. The single monthly rate covers every feature on the site, including the blog, and the only thing that ever gets billed separately is hourly work that genuinely sits outside the scope of the plan.

The plan

$175 a month, with everything handled.

There is no deposit at signing, the price never moves once you sign up, and the relationship runs for as long as you would like the website to run. Most clients stay because the site keeps doing its job rather than because the contract makes them.

Monthly subscription

$175 / month

$0 design deposit · 12-month minimum

This is the only plan I offer, and it covers the entire site from design through ongoing maintenance. The flat monthly rate covers the design, the custom-coded build, the hosting, the SSL certificate, the security work, the local-SEO foundation, the unlimited content updates, the blog (if you want one), and direct support from me. After the first twelve months you can cancel any time on thirty days notice.

Up to 10 content pages, custom-coded for your brand
Hosting and SSL on a fast global CDN, included
Unlimited content updates, included
Blog system, included (the same one this site runs on)
On-page and local SEO foundation, included
Mobile-first responsive design, included
Security and uptime monitored quietly in the background
Direct line to me, not a queue or a ticket
Month-to-month after the 12-month term

Anything outside the standard scope is billed at a flat $100 an hour, with a written estimate before any work starts.

If you would like a free, no-obligation diagnostic of your current site before we talk, the free five-point audit is the right place to start. It is genuinely free, and there is no sales call attached to receiving the report.

Included on every project

Everything else, already taken care of.

None of what follows counts against your ten content pages. Every site I build ships with all of it as standard infrastructure, which means you are covered legally, ethically, and technically from the moment you go live. Most agencies and AI builders charge extra for this list of items, or simply leave the list out altogether.

Standard build features

These are baseline, not bonuses.

Every site I ship has the items below built in from the first day it goes live. They are not upgrades or upsells, and they are not features I expect you to negotiate for. They are simply the way a professional small-business site should work, and they are how every site here is built.

Light and dark mode
System-preference auto-detection with an inline no-flash script. Manual toggle in the header.
Responsive header & navigation
Fluid from 320px up to 4K. Desktop gets mega menus; mobile gets a hamburger panel with every section expandable.
Accessible hamburger menu
Proper keyboard navigation, screen-reader labels, focus trap on open, and a visible close button.
Built-in full-text search
Pagefind indexes every page and serves client-side search without a backend. Dedicated search page + a header modal.
Privacy-focused analytics
Umami and Cloudflare Web Analytics baked in. Cookie-banner-free, GDPR-compliant, no tracking across sites.
WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility
Proper contrast, keyboard navigation, semantic HTML, reduced-motion support. Baseline, not a plugin.
Performance first
Custom-coded, CDN-served, 95–100 Google PageSpeed. Sub-one-second loads on every page I build.
Security by default
HTTPS/SSL on every page, no plugins to patch, no database to compromise, no backend surface area to attack.

How I get started

A 20-minute call on Google Meet.

That is the whole of the first step. There is no paperwork to fill out beforehand, no forms to complete, and no commitment attached to the conversation itself. We talk, I listen, and if it turns out we are a good fit for one another we take it from there.

Pricing questions

What people ask me most.

Is there really no design deposit?

Yes, really. Most agencies ask for somewhere between three and five thousand dollars before they will write a single line of code, and I have never been able to make that math work for the kind of business owner I tend to serve. Your first one hundred and seventy-five dollars is what kicks the build off, and the price never moves after that.

Why the 12-month minimum?

The reason is that I am doing a full custom build for you with nothing collected up front, and the twelve-month term is the way the math comes out even on my side. Once that first year is behind you the arrangement becomes month-to-month with thirty days of notice required to cancel.

What if I cancel early?

The remaining months are due under the agreement, and the agreement is the document that governs. With that said, I do not enjoy early-cancel situations any more than you would, and in practice I will usually find a reasonable way forward when one is needed.

What counts as "outside the plan" and gets billed at $100 an hour?

The standard plan covers your first ten content pages, the design and build, the hosting, the security and maintenance work, the local-SEO foundation, the blog, and unlimited content updates after launch. Anything materially beyond that, like building a custom calculator, integrating a third-party booking system, designing an email-marketing template, or migrating data from an old platform, is billed at a flat one hundred dollars an hour. I always send you a written estimate before any of that work starts, so the line between included and billable is clear in advance.

Do I own my domain?

Always, and you always will. Your domain stays registered in your name throughout the engagement, and I simply point its DNS at the hosting. If you ever decide to move on, the domain goes with you when you go.

Wondering whether $175 a month is worth it for your specific situation? The return-on-investment page works through the four levers a well-built site moves and the worked-example math for a typical local service business. The short version: the plan typically lands at 3–8% of the additional revenue the site generates over a year.

Ready to talk?

Stop worrying about your website.

Twenty minutes on Google Meet is all it takes to find out whether this is a fit for both of us. If it is, we start building shortly after the call. If it is not, I will point you in a sensible direction so that the time you spent on the call is not wasted on either side.
