Built for one business. Yours.
I build three websites at a time so each one gets done properly. Yours gets designed from scratch, written from scratch, and handed over in full.
Three projects at a time. It comes to me, not a queue.

Three at a time
Three sites at a time, and that's the cap. It's what lets me spend an hour on the phone with you before I write a word, then keep changing things until you're actually happy. A fourth project would mean cutting one of those short, so I don't take a fourth.

Work
See all the workTwo situations. Pick yours.
Most owners I work with are in one of these two spots. The work turns out much the same. What's different is the thing you're actually worried about.
I don't have a website
You're invisible to anyone who searches instead of asks.
Word of mouth still works. So does a Facebook page and a Yelp listing. But when somebody new pulls out their phone and searches for your trade near them, you are not in the results, and they call whoever is.
Fixing that takes more than filling in a form. Someone has to sit down and make the thing, and that starts with understanding what you actually do and who you do it for.
How it gets made
- I write the copy after an hour on the phone, using the words you already say to customers.
- The design gets drawn for your business. Nothing is pulled off a shelf and recolored.
- Review it as many times as you need. No round limit, no change fee.
I have one and it's bad
What you have is costing you the customers who think you closed.
If it pinch-zooms on a phone, or still shows a number you stopped using two years ago, people assume you have closed. They don't call to check. They tap back and ring whoever is next on the list.
You have paid for a site once already, so being careful about it is fair enough. The good news is that you keep everything you have built up.
What happens to what you already have
- Your domain stays yours. Same address, new site behind it.
- Your Google ranking does not reset. Same domain means the same history.
- Your old site stays up until the new one is ready. Nothing goes dark.
What the work actually is
Every site here gets designed from scratch for the business it belongs to. Here is what that actually involves.
- 01
A design drawn for your business
The layout, the type, the colors and the photography all get chosen around what you do and who you are selling to. No theme with your logo dropped on top.
Included - 02
Writing that came out of a conversation
I spend an hour with you first, then write from what you actually say to customers. You read every word before anybody else does.
Included - 03
Structure built around how people search
A page for each service and each place you work, because Google treats every city as its own market. I set up your Google Business Profile at the same time, or clean up the one you have.
Included - 04
Systems that actually work
Forms, booking, online ordering, whatever the business needs to take money or take an enquiry. I test all of it with real submissions before launch.
Included - 05
Revisions until it's right
You see it, tell me what is wrong, and I fix it. No cap on that, no charge for it. The work is finished when you say so.
Included - 06
Full handover, and then it's yours
Hosting set up and pointed at your domain, including the fiddly DNS part. Then every login, file and account goes to you. Hand it to somebody else tomorrow if you want.
Included
Not included — so there are no surprises
- Paid ads, or ongoing SEO work after launch.
- Domain and hosting fees. Those stay in your name and stay yours.
If you already have a site
Three questions come up every time, and you should not have to book a call to get the answers.
- Do I keep my domain?
- Yes. It stays registered in your name. I point it at the new site. If you would rather move it somewhere else, that's fine too — it's yours either way.
- Will I lose my Google ranking?
- No. Ranking is tied to your domain, and the domain doesn't change. I keep your existing page addresses where I can and forward the old ones where I can't, so nothing that used to work breaks.
- I'm still paying a builder every month. What about that?
- Keep paying it until the new site is live, then cancel. Your old site stays up the whole time. We schedule the switch so there is never a day where you have nothing.
How it goes
Four steps. The first two cost you nothing, and step two only happens if we both think it is a good fit.
- 01
Tell me about the business
You
A few questions on one page: what you do, who you do it for, and what is not working. It lands in my inbox.
- 02
If it's a fit, you get a real homepage
Me
A designed homepage for your actual business, free, and yours to walk away from. No template with your name dropped in.
- 03
We talk, then I build the rest
Both of us
An hour on the phone about how you actually sell. Then the writing, the pages, the forms, your Google profile. You review it as many times as you need.
- 04
It goes live, and it's yours
Both of us
Logins, files, accounts and ownership all come to you. No retainer starts. Nothing renews.
What it costs
Projects start at $500. Where yours lands depends on how many services you sell, how much writing and photography it needs, and whether the site has to take bookings or payments. You get the real number once we have talked, and it does not move after that.
Questions people actually ask
Answered here so you don't have to book a call to find out.
No site yetHow long does this take?
You get a date before any work starts, and it holds. How long depends on how many services and cities the site covers. The other big factor is photos: waiting on them is what slows most projects down, so having yours ready helps more than anything else you can do.
No site yetWhat do I have to give you?
Your business name, what you do, the areas you cover, your hours, your phone number, and a handful of photos of your real work. That is the whole list. If you do not have good photos yet, say so and we will work around it.
No site yetDo I need to write anything?
No. I write it, out of an hour on the phone with you. What I am after is the language you already use with customers: what they ask, what you end up explaining twice, what makes you different from the firm down the road. You read every word before anybody else does and correct me where I have got it wrong.
No site yetWhat if I don't like it?
You see a designed homepage for your business before you pay anything, so the worst case is you say no and it cost you nothing. Once you are in, changes are not capped and not charged for. You tell me what is wrong, I fix it, and we go round again until you are happy.
Have a siteCan you keep my domain?
Yes, and it stays registered in your name. Your web address does not change. I point it at the new site once that site is ready. If you would rather move the domain to a different registrar at the same time, that is fine. It is yours either way.
Have a siteWill I lose my Google ranking?
No. Google ties your ranking to your domain, and the domain is not changing. I keep your existing page addresses where I can and set up forwards where I cannot, so links that used to work carry on working. A faster, phone-friendly site usually helps rather than hurts.
Have a siteI'm still paying a website builder every month. What happens to that?
Keep paying it until the new site is live, then cancel. Your old site stays up the whole time, so there is never a day where somebody searches for you and finds nothing. I will tell you exactly when it is safe to cancel.
Have a siteCan you move what's already there?
Yes, if it is worth moving. Reviews, photos, service descriptions, and any pages that are actually bringing you customers all come across. The rest usually should not. I will tell you honestly which is which before I start.
EveryoneWhy only three projects at a time?
Quality over quantity, and three is where that line sits for me. An hour on the phone at the start, writing done from scratch, and unlimited revisions at the end do not divide across ten clients. The homepage shows how many of the three are running right now, read from the real list rather than typed in by hand.
EveryoneWhat if all three are taken?
You join the queue and I tell you where you are in it. No deposit, and nothing to cancel if you change your mind in the meantime. When a slot opens I work down the queue in order.
EveryoneWhy does the price start where it does?
Because a site designed from scratch for one business is a different job from a template with a logo dropped in, and it takes the time it takes. The pricing page lists exactly what moves the number: how many services you sell, how many places you work, how much writing is needed, photography, and whether the site has to take bookings or payments.
EveryoneDo I own the site after?
Yes, completely. You get the domain, the hosting account, the files, and every login. Nothing is held hostage. If you want to hand it to somebody else next year you can, and you will not need my permission or my help.
EveryoneWho hosts it, and what does that cost?
The site is hosted in your own account rather than mine, and the cost is small. Usually a few dollars a month, sometimes free at this size. Your domain renews separately, roughly the price of a sandwich per year. Both bills sit in your name, so I cannot hold either over you.
EveryoneWhat if I want changes in six months?
Message me and I will quote the change, or hand it to anybody you like. No retainer and no lock-in, which also means no monthly fee sitting there in the months you need nothing. Small text and photo swaps are usually quick and cheap.
EveryoneDo you work in Spanish?
The build itself runs in English. The calls, the emails, and the questions I will ask you. If your own customers read Spanish and you want Spanish on your site, say so on the form and we will talk about what that takes.
Still stuck on something? Ask me directly — it goes to a person, not a queue.
Tell me about the business.
If it is a fit, I will design a real homepage for it and send it over before you have paid anything. If it is not, I will tell you straight and point you at what I would do instead.
Three projects at a time. Your message lands in my inbox.
