Cost questions

What this costs, answered plainly.

The money questions I get asked most. For everything else, see the full FAQ.

• How much does a small business website cost?

  A professional small business website usually runs $1,500 to $5,000 as a one time build, or $500 a month on a monthly plan. DIY builders look cheaper at $12 to $40 a month, but hosting, plugins, security, and your own time add up fast. Our build is $500 a month for twelve months, or the same total paid in full. See the one time vs monthly cost comparison.

• Is the website payment a lease or a subscription?

  Neither. It is the build price split over twelve months. After twelve payments the site is yours outright, the same as if you had paid in full on day one. Read about the twelve month retainer trap.

• What does hosting cost after the build is paid off?

  Starting in month thirteen, care and hosting is $50, $100, or $150 a month depending on your tier. That covers fast hosting, SSL, daily backups, security monitoring, updates, and small edits. It is month to month, so you can cancel any time.

• Is content writing included in the price?

  The pages that ship with your build are written for you at no extra cost. Ongoing content after launch is the Visibility Plan, which starts at $400 a month. You can add it later or skip it entirely.

• Are there setup fees or surprise invoices?

  No. You pay the build price, either monthly or in full, and then care and hosting from month thirteen. The only outside cost is your domain registration, usually $10 to $20 a year, billed by your registrar.

• Why is pricing flat instead of hourly?

  Flat pricing keeps the project predictable for you and focused for us. You know the total on day one, and we get paid for a launched site instead of for logged hours. It is the same reason we cap delivery at ten business days. Read which local SEO services are worth paying for.
