New build or redesign — the process looks the same.
Every project starts with a conversation about where you're starting from, not an assumption about it.
A new website, built around your business
No site yet, or the current one isn't worth keeping? I plan the structure, design the pages, and build it — usually on WordPress, so you can make small edits yourself afterward. Custom development comes in when the project needs something a standard build can't do.
- Structure planned around what you sell
- WordPress by default, custom when needed
- Built with SEO and performance in mind from the start
A redesign or rebuild of your current site
Most projects aren't a blank slate — they're an existing site that's outdated, slow, or hard to update. I review what's there, keep what's working, and rebuild the rest around a faster, more current foundation.
- Works with WordPress or most existing platforms
- Content and structure carried over where it makes sense
- A chance to fix technical SEO issues along the way
A professional website, starting at $500.
Planned, designed, and built by one developer — with a clear starting price and a natural next step into ongoing SEO and Care once it's live.
Website Launch
$500
starting price, one-time
A complete, professional website — planned, designed, and built around your business, ready to launch.
- Up to 5 core pages
- Professional, responsive design
- Mobile-friendly build
- Contact form
- Basic technical SEO foundation
- Basic on-page SEO setup
- Analytics & Search Console setup
- Performance optimization
- Deployment & launch
When a project costs more
$500 is a starting price for a straightforward small-business website. Larger or more complex projects are scoped and quoted separately — things like:
- E-commerce
- Booking or scheduling systems
- Memberships or gated content
- Substantial custom functionality
- API integrations
- Large page counts
- Extensive content creation or data entry
- Complex migrations
You own what you pay for
Once your Website Launch project is complete, the website is yours. Host it wherever you like — there's no obligation to sign up for anything ongoing. Prefer not to think about hosting, backups, or updates? The Care and Growth plans below include managed hosting and handle the technical side for you.
Every website I build can move straight into an ongoing Care or Growth plan once it's live — or you can simply take the finished site and run it yourself.
Website design & development — questions, answered.
What's included in a standalone Website Launch?
A complete, responsive website built around your business — up to 5 core pages, a contact form, a basic technical and on-page SEO foundation, analytics and Search Console setup, performance optimization, and deployment. It's yours once it's delivered.
Do you build new websites, redesign existing ones, or both?
Both. Some projects start from a blank slate; most start with a website that already exists and needs to be rebuilt or brought up to date. The process is the same either way.
WordPress or custom-built — how do you decide?
It depends on the project. WordPress is a strong fit for most small-business sites — flexible, and easy for you to update afterward. Custom development comes in when a project needs functionality WordPress and off-the-shelf themes don't handle well.
Do I own the finished website?
Yes. Once a Website Launch project is paid for and delivered, it's yours — host it wherever you like, with no obligation to buy anything ongoing.
Is ongoing support required after launch?
No. A standalone Website Launch has no strings attached. If you'd rather not manage hosting, updates, or SEO yourself, the Care and Growth plans are available as an optional next step.
Do you handle e-commerce or booking systems?
That kind of added functionality falls outside the standard $500 starting scope and gets scoped and quoted separately, based on what the project actually needs.
