Optional help

Help with your website, when you want it.

Make your site with the website starter on your own, or have us publish it, finish it, or build it with you.

Free: Making your website here is free. Build it, download the files and publish it yourself, with no account.

Paid, if you want it: the services below. Every one starts as a request and a written quote, and nothing is sold or charged on this site.


Services

Introductory prices, from $250 to $2,500 and up by scope. Every project starts with a written quote, and the quote is the final word.

Publish help

$250

You made a draft with the website starter and want it online.

  • A check of your site on a phone and a computer
  • Set up with the hosting company you choose, in your name
  • Your domain connected, so your address shows your site
  • Call, text, email and booking buttons tested
  • A short note on how to update it later

Where it stops: Puts your site online as you made it. Changes to the wording or layout are Finish my draft.

  • Your photos sized and placed

How it works

Nothing is booked or charged until you approve a written quote.

  1. 01Tell us about it

    Send a short request. We reply by email, usually within two business days.

  2. 02Get a written quote

    What we'll build, what's not included, the schedule and a fixed price.

  3. 03Approve and start

    Work begins only after you approve the written quote. How and when you pay is set out in it.

  4. 04Preview and change

    You click through a private preview and send changes, within the rounds included.

  5. 05Accept and launch

    When you're happy, the site goes live in your name, with the hosting you chose.

Changes outside the written scope are quoted first, and start only when you say yes.

Not included in any package

  • Hosting. We don't host websites. Your site lives with the hosting company you choose.
  • Domain, hosting, email and other paid services. You pay them directly, in your own name.
  • Writing large amounts of new text, professional photos or a logo.
  • Online payments, bookings, logins or member areas, unless quoted as custom work.
  • Complex integrations with other systems, unless quoted as custom work.
  • Ongoing support after launch, unless you choose a care plan.

Care after launch

Optional. Offered once your site is live, by conversation. There's nothing to sign up for here.

  • Basic Care $49 a month

    A monthly check that the site loads and the form works, routine updates, and a short note on what we found.

  • Business Care $99 a month

    Basic Care, plus up to one hour of text and photo changes each month.

  • Growth Care $199 a month

    Basic Care, plus up to three hours of agreed improvements and a monthly review.
