Answers, up front.
Ten honest answers to what founders and local operators ask before they hire us. If something isn't here, ask us on the contact form — We reply personally.
- Our flat-fee $1,497 website is live in 7 business days from the moment you approve the direction and hand over content. Bigger scopes with custom apps, e-commerce, or integrations run 3–6 weeks depending on complexity. We give you a firm timeline in your quote — not a range that slides.
- A custom multi-page website up to 6 pages designed for your business, an AI assistant that qualifies visitors 24/7, a smart intake form, automated branded welcome + lead-summary emails, local SEO with dedicated service pages and schema markup, business email on your own domain, SSL, domain hookup, photo galleries and before/after sliders, 2 rounds of revisions and 30 days of post-launch support. See the full list on the Web Design page.
- You own your domain, your brand kit (logos, label art, print files), your content and your email accounts — those are yours forever, and if you ever leave they go with you. The website itself is built and run by us as a managed product — we keep it fast, secure and live so you never touch code.
- Hosting is included in the $199/month Care Plan along with SSL renewal, monitoring, backups, edits and updates. Hosting is part of how we run and maintain the site, so the Care Plan keeps it live.
- Logo suite (full color, reverse for dark backgrounds, mono black, icon-only, transparent PNG), business card front and back, one door hanger, one flyer, custom QR codes that route to your site, and print-ready CMYK PDFs any local print shop will accept. Two rounds of revisions, delivered in 5 business days.
- Yes. The Brand Kit is a standalone $695 package designed for crews and operators who need to look legitimate in the field right now. If you later add a website with us, the $695 you paid is credited toward the website build.
- Hosting, SSL, domain management, security monitoring, malware scanning, daily backups, software and dependency updates, uptime monitoring, a monthly performance and lead report, and up to one hour per month of content edits (new photos, copy changes, service updates, new team members). Edits over an hour are billed at a flat hourly rate we'll agree on in advance.
- Both, and we make it easy either way. Most clients send us bullet points, an old brochure, or a 10-minute voice memo about what they do — we turn that into finished web copy. If you already have copy written we use it. We don't charge extra for copywriting on the $1,497 package.
- We build the technical SEO foundation properly: clean semantic HTML, unique meta tags per page, schema markup, a real sitemap, fast load times, and mobile-first layout. That's the part we can control. Actually ranking for competitive terms depends on your content, your reviews, your local citations, and time — usually 3–6 months of consistent activity before you see meaningful movement. We tell every client this up front because anyone promising overnight rankings is lying.
- Custom apps, e-commerce platforms with unusual checkout flows, membership sites, and fintech builds are custom scope — we quote each one after we understand it. We've shipped fintech (REYES), telehealth commerce (CandyRX), luxury commerce (858 Vintage), and property-services platforms (DPI). Tell us what you're building on the contact form and we'll come back with scope, timeline and a flat number.
