The Problem

Your website should represent your business properly.

Most local business websites are outdated, awkward on a phone, and don’t clearly show what the business does. A visitor who can’t read your site easily will leave and call the next result. What you need is a well-built website that presents your services clearly and makes it simple for people to get in touch.

WHAT YOU GET

Small business web design at a fixed price.

Designed for you

Every page is designed around your services, your area, and how you work — not copied from a template.

Professional quality

A proper custom design, not a template with your logo dropped in. Clean layout, clear typography, and a professional finish.

Built for phones first

Most local searches happen on a phone. Your site loads fast and reads clearly on any screen, from handset to desktop.

Everything included for $997.

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers on price, what’s included, and how it works.

What exactly do I get for $997?

Five custom WordPress pages built around your business — mobile-first design, every page written for you, contact forms set up, and on-page SEO basics. Hosting and your domain are billed directly by the provider, not through me.

Do I own my domain name?

Yes. The domain stays registered in your name. If you don’t have one yet, I’ll help you register one in your name.

How long does it take?

Fourteen days from your kickoff, once I have your logo, photos, and the basic details about the services you provide.

Can I add more pages later?

Yes. WordPress makes it straightforward to add pages, service areas, or photo galleries as the business grows. Additional pages are $200 each.

Who writes the copy?

I do. You tell me what services you offer, where you work, and what the business does, and I write every page of the site from that.
