— Why me
One developer. Zero fluff.
Talk to the maker
You work directly with the person writing the code. No account managers, no telephone-game briefs.
Built for growth
Websites that don't just look nice — they load in under a second and turn visitors into customers.
Fair, flat pricing
Clear scope, fixed quote, no surprise invoices. You'll know exactly what you're paying for.
Yours to keep
You own the code, the domain, the accounts. No lock-in. No walled garden.

Everything you need to show up online.
Pick a single service or bundle them together — most clients start with a website and stay for the care plan.

— How it works
A calm, four-step process.
Most projects take three to six weeks from first call to launch — no drama, no ghost periods.
01
Discovery
A friendly call to understand your business, your customers, and what a successful website actually means for you.
02
Design
Wireframes, then full visual design in your brand. You review, we iterate, nothing gets built until you love it.
03
Build
Clean, modern code. Fast hosting. Accessibility and SEO baked in from the first line, not bolted on at the end.
04
Launch & Care
We handle DNS, migrations, and analytics. Then we stick around to keep everything humming.

— FAQ
Answers, before you ask.
How much does a website cost?+
Most small-business sites land between $3,500 and $9,000, depending on scope. You get a fixed quote after our discovery call — no hourly surprises. Our costs range between $400–$1,200 maximum.
How long does it take?+
Most projects wrap in 1–2 weeks, and simple sites can even go live the same day when the scope allows. Larger marketing sites take 3–6 weeks, and e-commerce runs 6–10 weeks. I only take on a handful of projects at a time so yours gets real attention.
Do I need to write the content?+
You know your business best, but I'll guide the structure and can bring in a copywriter if you'd rather delegate the words.
What about after launch?+
Care plans start at $95/month and cover hosting, updates, backups, security, and small edits. Cancel any time.
Do I own everything?+
Yes. The code, the domain, the accounts — all in your name. If we ever part ways, you walk away with everything.
