What We Do

Everything Your Site Needs, Done Right

We handle the technical and creative work so you can focus on your business.

Custom Website Design

Every site is designed from scratch to match your brand. No templates, no drag-and-drop shortcuts — a real design built around your business.

Mobile-First Development

Your site will look and work perfectly on phones, tablets, and desktops. We build mobile-first because that's where most of your visitors are.

SEO Foundations

We build your site with proper technical SEO: semantic code, meta tags, fast load speeds, a sitemap, and Google Search Console setup. A strong foundation for being found.

Ongoing Maintenance

Stay on our $120/month plan and we handle updates, edits, and small changes as you need them — so your site never becomes stale or broken.

Fast Load Times

We optimize images, minimize code, and use modern hosting so your site loads quickly. Faster sites keep visitors around longer.

Analytics Setup

We connect Google Analytics so you can see how many people visit, where they come from, and which pages they spend time on. Free to use, always yours to access.

How It Works

Simple Process,
Real Results

Four steps from first conversation to live website, typically in 2–4 weeks.

Discovery Call

We spend 30 minutes learning about your business, goals, and what you need. No pressure, no sales pitch.

Design Mockup

We create a design for your approval before writing a single line of code. We revise until you're happy.

Build & Launch

We code, test across devices, set up hosting and your domain, and go live. You get the keys to everything.

Ongoing Support

Stay on our monthly plan for continued updates and support, or take the site and manage it yourself — your choice.

FAQ

Honest Answers

The samples on this page are original designs we built to demonstrate our range across different industries. Your project would receive the same level of craft — designed from scratch, tailored to your brand, and built to stand out.
Starter sites typically take 1–2 weeks. Growth sites take 3–4 weeks. The main variable is how quickly you can provide content (text, photos, preferences) — the faster we have what we need, the faster we ship.
The $120/month plan is billed one month at a time — there's no minimum term, no 6-month lock-in, and no cancellation penalty. Think of it like a subscription: you pay for it as long as it's useful and stop when it isn't. Cancel anytime with 30 days notice and we'll hand off everything your site needs to run independently.
We can't guarantee specific rankings — no one honestly can. What we do is build your site correctly from a technical SEO standpoint: fast load speeds, semantic code, proper meta tags, a sitemap, and submission to Google Search Console. That's the foundation. Ranking for competitive terms takes time and often additional ongoing content or SEO work.
Yes. We help you register a domain, set up hosting, configure DNS, and install an SSL certificate so your site is secure from day one. We'll walk you through every account so you own and can access everything.
Your website and all its files are yours from day one. Cancel the monthly plan anytime with 30 days notice and we'll provide a complete handoff package — code, assets, and documentation — so you can take it to any host or developer with zero friction.
