How it works

Three steps. Most of them are ours.

You run your business. We handle the design, the wording and the setup, and we walk you through the two quick account steps that keep the site in your name.

The three steps

  1. Fill out the short form

    A few minutes. Answer what you know and skip the rest. Don't know what to write? We'll write it for your trade and town, and you approve every word.

    A few minutes
  2. Get your free mockup

    We design a preview of your homepage and make reasonable changes you ask for. Don't love it? Walk away. You owe nothing.

    Free, no obligation
  3. Love it? It's yours.

    Sign a short plain-English agreement and pay $1,000. We finish the site, with unlimited changes until handoff. At the end you create a free hosting account in your name and buy the domain (about $10 to $20 a year). We walk you through it. We never take your password. Then we test it with you and hand it off.

What to expect

Your part takes about 10 minutes on one short setup call.

A phone is fine. If you’d rather, we do the account steps with you on the call. We never ask for your passwords.

  5. 5
    Type in any one-time codes yourselfDuring setup, you enter any email codes yourself. Never read them to us. We never hear or store them.
  6. 6
    Confirm a test message arrivedWe send a test through your contact form together. That’s the handoff.

What we do

  • Write the wording for your trade and town (you approve every word)
  • Design the mockup and make reasonable changes you ask for
  • Build the finished site, with unlimited changes until handoff
  • Set it up in your free hosting account and connect your domain
  • Test your contact form with you
  • Fix any mistakes of ours for 7 days after you confirm the test. After that, no more edits from us

Scope: one custom page, with the kinds of sections in our samples.

After handoff

Then it’s yours.

Unlimited changes until handoff. Then 7 days for us to fix any mistakes of ours. After that, no more edits from us. No monthly fees, nothing to cancel.

  • You own itThe site, the hosting account and the domain are in your name. We keep temporary access only until the 7-day fix window ends, then you remove it.
  • 7 days to catch our mistakesAt handoff we send a test message through your contact form together. Once you confirm it arrived, you have 7 days to tell us about any mistake of ours (a typo, a broken link, or anything that doesn't match what you approved), and we fix it free. The 7 days are for our mistakes, not new changes.
  • After the 7 days, no more edits from usThat's the end of our edits. The site is fully yours, and any web designer can work on it. There's no software to update. You renew your domain each year.

How changes work

  1. Until handoffUnlimited changes.
  2. 7 days after handoffWe fix any mistakes of ours, free.
  3. After the 7 daysNo more edits from us. The site is fully yours, and any web designer can work on it.

What we never make up

What we never make up: reviews, years in business, licenses, insurance, awards, warranties or prices. Those only go on your site if you give them to us.
