A custom site, built right and handed to you. You own everything.
Discovery, build, handover.
Three steps. No account managers, no ambiguity about who owns what.
1. Discovery
We scope the project together — what the site needs to do, for whom, and what “done” looks like. You get a fixed plan and a quote before any build starts.
2. Build
I design and build the site myself — no handoffs, no subcontracted work. You see real progress along the way, not just a reveal at the end.
3. Handover
You get the keys. Every account — hosting, domain, email, database — is created in your name from day one, or transferred to you at handover. Nothing stays in ours.
Everything it takes to launch it right.
Custom design & build
A site designed and coded around your brand and your content — not a theme with your logo dropped in.
Responsive, fast, accessible
Built to work cleanly on every device, load quickly, and hold up to real accessibility standards.
SEO fundamentals
Metadata, sitemap, and structured data set up correctly from the start — the groundwork search engines expect.
Contact & lead capture
Forms and inquiries wired straight to your inbox, ready to use on day one.
Content set up with you
Your copy, images, and pages populated as part of the build — not left as a homework assignment.
Documentation & handover notes
A clear record of every account you now hold, what it's for, and how to manage it going forward.
Scoped per project, quoted up front.
One-time build, from $3,500
A typical rebuild of up to about 10 pages — with every old URL redirected, SEO and structured data, lead capture and online booking — starts there. Every project still gets a fixed written quote, agreed with you before any work starts. No billing by the hour for the build itself.
Hourly for future changes
Once the site is live, any new work — a redesign, a new feature, a bug fix, ongoing maintenance, a content overhaul — is quoted before it starts. You're never locked into paying us anything ongoing just to keep the lights on.
Built for businesses that want control.
- 01
You want to own your website outright, with no required ongoing commitment — but us on call whenever you want help.
- 02
You're comfortable handling — or delegating — day-to-day upkeep once it's built.
- 03
The project is substantial enough that a template or DIY builder won't really fit it.
- 04
You'd rather pay once and be done, then pay only when you want something new.
Common questions.
What do ongoing costs look like?
You pay your vendors directly, at cost — whatever they charge is exactly what you pay, with no markup from us. Most sites we build rely on a handful of components at minimum: a host, a database, media storage, error monitoring, and bulk email. For a typical site, expect ongoing operational costs of roughly $65–125 per month, paid straight to those providers. Sites with heavy traffic or large storage needs may see additional usage-based charges. Because the accounts are yours, you see every invoice yourself and can switch providers whenever you want (though changing providers will likely incur additional one-time development costs).
Why pay up front?
It's the lowest-cost way to run the site month to month — you pay vendors directly at cost, with no subscription or management fee layered on top. The build itself is scoped and quoted before any work starts, so you know the investment going in — no drip-billing, no surprise invoices partway through. Once it's built and handed over, you own it outright, with nothing further owed to keep it running.
Can you still help after handover?
Absolutely. You own the site, but we don't disappear. Need a new feature, a bug fixed, or regular maintenance? We're a message away, billed hourly or quoted up front. You're never obligated, and never stranded.
