Website design, built to be judged before you pay.
A flat comp hides everything that goes wrong later — how the page loads, how it scrolls, how it reads on a phone in a parking lot. So I build working pages instead, usually several real versions, and you decide from the thing itself.
What you get
A custom site designed around how your business actually converts. For a restaurant that means the menu and the reservation link; for a contractor it means the service area, the license, and a phone number that works on the first tap. The structure changes with the industry, because the questions customers arrive with change with the industry.
Every build ships with technical SEO, structured data, an accessibility pass, security headers, and legal pages included. Those are the reason the rest of it holds up, so they are in the base price.
How it goes
A free digital assessment of what you have now, then a written scope with a fixed price and a timeline. During the build you review by clicking the spot on your own site and leaving a note — no new tool to learn, no account to create. Most sites launch in three to six weeks.
At launch you get a PageSpeed score I show you, a full QA pass across mobile and desktop, and DNS handled before anything goes live.
What’s included
In the base price. These are the reason the rest of it holds up.
Worth saying plainly
A new website will not, on its own, get you to the top of Google. For most local service businesses the calls come from the map pack, which weighs how close you are and how many reviews you have far above how good your site is. What a good site reliably does is make you look legitimate to someone comparing three options, load fast enough that they stay, and answer the questions that stop people from calling.
What it costs
Questions, answered honestly
How much does a website cost?
Small sites (three to five pages) start at $2,000 and larger sites at $3,500, quoted at a fixed price after a scoped discovery call. What moves the number is page count, e-commerce, and how much content needs writing. A one-page site — a launch, an event, a single service — starts at $900. You get the price before work starts, and it does not change unless the scope does.
How long does a website take to build?
Most sites launch in three to six weeks. One-page sites can be faster. You get a timeline before work starts, and if something slips you hear it from me before you have to ask.
Can I see the design before I commit?
Often, yes. For a lot of projects I build a working preview first using your real photos, reviews, and business information, then send you the link. It costs nothing and obligates you to nothing.
Do I own the website when it is finished?
Yes. Code, design, content, and domain all transfer to you at final payment. The domain, hosting, and any subscriptions are registered in your name on your card from day one — you are the owner and I am added as an admin. There is no exit fee, because there is nothing to charge one for.
Will my site look like your other clients’?
Businesses in the same industry share a page structure, because their customers arrive with the same questions — a boarding facility answers ”is it safe, who works there, what do I bring” whether it wants to or not. What comes from you is the colour, the photography, the register, and the words you already use for your own rooms, staff, and services. Two brands I built, We Are Cuzn and BOP Academy, sit under one umbrella and deliberately look nothing alike.
Can you work on my existing Squarespace or WordPress site?
Sometimes. If the platform is fine and the real problem is content, SEO, or setup, fixing what you have is usually cheaper and I will say so. If the platform itself is the constraint, we talk about a rebuild.
