A website thatgets youfound.

It depends on two things: how much site you need, and whether you want to edit it yourself. A single page starts at $305. A five-to-seven page site for a local business is $2,470. An online store is $4,015. Bigger company sites start at $8,240 and get properly quoted. On the three smaller sites, a platform build you can edit yourself is $100 more. If none of that quite describes you, tell me what you’re trying to do and I’ll happily tell you what it should cost.

There’s no platform behind it. No Squarespace or Webflow subscription, no monthly fee for as long as the site exists. I write it by hand and host it free, so the only thing you ever pay for is the build itself. The trade-off is you can’t log in and change it yourself. If that matters to you, and for a lot of people it does, a platform build is the better fit, and it costs more because it genuinely does more.

On the platform builds, absolutely. That’s a good part of what you’re paying extra for. I’ll walk you through it and record the session so you can watch it back when you inevitably forget a step. Everyone does. On the hand-built ones, no. Changes come through me: $30 an hour with a one-hour minimum, or the $50/mo Care plan.

Yes. All of it, once the final payment’s in. Files, code, design, the lot. On the hand-built sites I’ll hand you the actual files, and what you do with them after that is entirely up to you.

You do, always. It’s registered in your name and you’re the legal owner. If I’m looking after it, I keep it in my registrar account so renewals, DNS and the security certificate get handled without you thinking about it. That’s $50 a year, billed separately from the care plans. Want to take it over? A few days and it’s done, no fee, and I’m happy to help with the move.

A single page is about a week, or three to five days if it’s straightforward. A local business site is around four weeks. A store is closer to five. Bigger builds run eight to ten weeks. Those are start-to-finish, not build time. The build itself is the quick part. The rest is the calls, the copy, the photos, the creative, and testing everything properly before it goes live. So a one-pager isn’t a month of building; it’s a few days of building inside a week of getting it right. None of it is set in stone either. A simple job can land early, a complicated one takes longer, and I’ll give you a firm date once I’ve seen the scope. One thing that does move the clock: timelines start the day I have your content, not the day you sign.

Every site gets the technical groundwork: proper structure, tags, sitemap, submitted to Google the right way, and your Google Business Profile sorted if you’re a local business. That’s the part in my control. What I won’t do is promise a specific ranking. Anyone who does is guessing.

I’ll record a full walkthrough so you’ve got it to refer back to, and for the first 30 days I’ll fix anything that isn’t working properly, free. After that: care plans from $50/mo, or pay-as-you-go changes at $30/hr on sites I host.

Fair thing to wonder about. Your domain is registered in your name, so it stays yours no matter what. You own your files. Nothing about your site depends on me still being around. Any competent developer can pick it up, and I keep things documented and tidy specifically so they can.
