The website
From $3,500
Design, build, and launch, start to finish. You’ll have a written plan and a fixed price in hand before I begin. The whole path is laid out on How it works.
What you get
A website for your business — or for you.
It should tell people who you are, what you do, and how to reach you — clearly enough that they get it in a few seconds. It should work as well in someone’s hand as on their desk. And it should sound like you, because I write it from how you actually talk, not from a template.
Two kinds of websites
Same craft, two starting points: a business people hire, or a person with work to show. Most of what I build is one of these.
For a business
This is the website that earns you the call. It says who you are, what you do, who you serve, and how to reach you — with room for your services, your team, your locations, and the story behind the work. Someone lands on it and knows within seconds that they’re in the right place. Then they call, email, or fill out the form without hunting for how. The hours are current. The photos match the work. Nothing leaves them wondering whether you’re still around.
For you
Artists, makers, musicians, writers. Here the work is the point, so the design steps back and lets it lead — clean space, honest images, and a straight path from “I like this” to “here’s how to reach you.” The right people find it, look as long as they want, and know exactly how to get in touch.
What a website usually includes
Come with a page list if you have one. If you don’t, here’s what most sites need, and it’s usually plenty to start. Everything is built to work on any device, with type you can actually read and buttons you can actually hit — and the thing someone came for is never more than a click away.
Know you need more than this? Say so, and it goes in the plan. Most sites need a home page aimed at the people you want, an about page for the person behind the work, a clear offer, and a straight path to get in touch.
- A home page — the first thing people see, aimed squarely at the ones you want
- An about page — the person or people behind the work
- What you offer — services, products, or the body of work itself
- A way to get in touch — phone, email, a form, and an address if people visit
- Anything else that matters — a team page, a gallery, the extra pages your work asks for
Website and care
Two numbers cover a straightforward website. Anything bigger gets its own price, written down before a single thing gets built.
Care after launch
$79 a month
Your site stays hosted, backed up, and looked after. The everyday edits are on me — new hours, a fresh photo, a name added to or taken off a page, the small facts that keep a site true. You send a note; I make the change. A new page or a full redesign is its own project, priced in writing before it starts.
