What you get
Everything a good website needs, handled.
You run the business. We take care of the part that lives on the internet: the design, the words, the hosting, the domain, the security and every change after launch.
Built for phones first
We design the phone version first and let the desktop version follow, because that is the order your customers see it in. The phone number is a button, the address opens the map app, the hours are readable without zooming and the first screen says what you do, where, and how to get in touch. Every page is checked at phone sizes before it goes live.
Fast, every time
Your pages are plain, well-built HTML served from Google's network, with images sized for the screen they are shown on. There is no page builder, no plugin stack and nothing running in the background to slow it down. That is how every site clears Google's performance test before it goes live, and why it loads quickly on a weak signal in a parking lot.
Local SEO, built in
Search engine optimization is part of every site, not an add-on. Each page has a title and description written for what people actually type. Your business name, address, phone, hours and services are marked up in the format Google reads, and a sitemap tells Google when something is new. We set up or tidy your Google Business Profile with you so the map listing and the site agree. On Growth and Authority you get a monthly report of the searches that brought people to your site, from Google's own Search Console data. We do not promise rankings; nobody honest can.
Secure by default
Every site runs on HTTPS with a certificate that renews itself, so no browser shows a "Not secure" warning beside your name. Every published version is backed up, so any change can be undone. And we act on change requests only from the email addresses on file for your business, so nobody can alter your site by pretending to be you.
Your name on the door
Your domain is registered in your name, not ours, and we pay its renewal while you are on a plan. Your words, logo and photos are yours from the first day. Once what you have paid adds up to $999, the finished site and its files are yours too, free; before then you can buy them for the difference. If you ever leave, everything leaves with you.
No homework
There is no dashboard, no login and no editor to learn. When something changes, you email us in plain words and attach any new photos. We make the change, check it and publish it within the turnaround for your plan, and reply to say it is done. If a request needs a decision from you, we ask before we act.
Our launch rule: a site must score 90 or higher in all four of Google's Lighthouse tests before it goes live.
Inside every site
What is on the page, and what is under it.
The same bones on every plan. Growth and Authority add pages, reports and content on top; see the plans compared.
On the page
- A home page that says what you do, where, and how to reach you in the first screen
- Services or menu section, written in plain words from your own answers
- About section with your story, and a photo gallery for your work or your place
- Hours with an open-now badge and holiday hours, address with a map link, phone with tap-to-call, and a contact form
- Your Google rating and testimonials, and links to the tools you already use: booking, ordering, reviews, social pages
- Your logo and colours, or a clean palette we choose with you
Under the hood
- Hosted on Google's global network (Firebase), with HTTPS and automatic certificate renewal
- Local SEO: structured data for your business name, address, phone and hours, a sitemap, and page titles and descriptions written for search
- Every page tested on phone screens and against Google's Lighthouse checks before publishing
- Backups of every version, so any change can be undone
- Your domain registered in your name, with the technical setup handled for you
- A real person reviewing every change before it goes live, and changes accepted only from your addresses on file
Your options
Three ways to get a website. One that does the work for you.
Owners usually weigh a do-it-yourself builder, a traditional agency, or a service like ours. Here is the honest comparison.
Security and ownership
Your name on everything that matters.
Your domain, in your name
The domain is registered to you, not to us, and we pay its renewal while you are on a plan. If you already own one, it stays where it is. Either way it leaves with you if you go.
Only your addresses can change the site
We act on change requests only from the email addresses on file for your business. A request from anywhere else is checked with you before anything happens. To add a colleague, tell us from your own address.
A backup of every version
Every published version of your site is kept, so any change can be undone, and a site is never one mistake away from being lost.
HTTPS, always
Every site runs on HTTPS with a certificate that renews itself. Visitors never see a "Not secure" warning, and Google treats the site as it should.
Free preview
See your new site before you spend anything.
Send us your business name and we build a working preview, free. Keep it from $49 a month with hosting, your domain and edits included, or walk away. There is nothing to pay to look.
A person reads every message. The preview usually arrives within a few days.
