Final scope, integrations and provider fees are confirmed before the build.

From $300 · final scope and price agreed in writing

Only need one page? The $199 starter includes supplied content, up to four sections, one contact or booking link and one revision. Larger website scopes start at $300.

Scope, examples & what is included

your website has seconds to answer four questions: what you do, who it is for, why the visitor should trust you, and what they should do next.

we design fast, phone-first business websites around that decision. you work directly with the founder who builds the project, see a working link during the build, and get a written scope and handover.

small-business website decision guide

What your website must answer in five seconds

A visitor should not have to hunt for the basics. The first screen needs to make these decisions easy.

01

What do you do?

Name the service in the words customers search and use.

02

Who is it for?

Make the customer, service area, or situation unmistakable.

03

Why trust you?

Show real work, direct feedback, credentials, or a verifiable result.

04

What happens next?

Give one obvious action: call, book, order, or request a quote.

choose the smallest useful scope

Website cost depends on what the site must do

01

Frontend presence site

A fast, responsive site with your offer, proof, contact path and handover. Starts at $300.

02

One backend integration

A small, defined form, data or API integration starts at $625. Accounts, admin areas and complete custom applications need a separate scope and quote.

03

One booking or ordering flow

A focused setup using an agreed existing platform starts at $600. Custom calendars, marketplaces and multiple payment flows are quoted separately.

If an existing website only needs one repair, we'll say so. If a standard platform is the better fit, we'll recommend that instead of custom code.

web design by business type

Does this sound familiar?

  • you have no website, or you're embarrassed to send people to it
  • it looks broken on phones
  • nobody on your team can change the text or the hours
  • it doesn't take bookings, orders or payments
  • you paid an agency and can't even log into your own site

What we build for this

  • a fast, responsive website with clear calls, quote requests, bookings or orders
  • search-ready titles, page structure, internal links, sitemap and structured data
  • editable content where the scope calls for it
  • the included source code and setup notes handed over; domains, hosting, fonts, plugins and other vendors keep their own terms
  • multilingual website layouts and content, with translated copy reviewed and approved by you before launch

A smaller starting point

One-page starter website · $199

One responsive page with up to four sections, your supplied copy and images, one contact or booking link, and one revision. Target delivery is five days after the scope, content, access and start date are agreed.

Extra pages, new writing, backend forms, checkout, accounts and integrations are separate. Hosting and domains are not included. The larger business-website scope above starts at $300; this is the same focused $199 starter offered on Upwork.

questions people ask first

Questions before starting

how much does a website cost?

the focused one-page starter is $199 with supplied content, one contact or booking link and one revision. larger frontend business sites start at $300. a small, defined backend integration starts around $625, not a complete custom application. you get a written fixed quote before work starts; any change to that scope needs your agreement first.

i already have a website. do i have to start over?

usually not. most sites have one real problem — slow, broken on phones, or nobody can update it. a redesign is priced like a new build, from $300, and we'll tell you which parts are worth keeping.

how long does it take?

most focused business sites take one to two weeks after the scope, content and required access are ready. you get a working link to review during the build.

do you only design websites in california?

no. we're based in california and work remotely with businesses across the united states.

is seo included?

every build includes clean technical foundations: descriptive titles, crawlable links, a sitemap, mobile performance and structured content. ongoing search work is a separate scope when needed.

will i be able to update the site?

yes when editing is part of the scope. the proposal states what you can change, which accounts are yours and what is included in handover.
