Pricing questions

Is the first call free?

Yes. The call and your quote are free, and there's no pressure to sign anything.

Is hosting extra?

No. If you own your site, hosting comes with monthly upkeep. If you rent, it’s already in the monthly price. It’s never a separate bill.

Do I have to sign up for upkeep?

No, upkeep is optional. If you skip it, we set your site up on free hosting in your own name when it launches, for a one-time $250 setup, and hand you the keys. Any changes after that, just email us for a quote. If you rent, upkeep is already included.

Is Website SEO extra?

No. It comes with every website: town pages, titles and descriptions, and schema.

Do I need SEO+?

No. Your website already comes with Website SEO. SEO+ is a separate service for your Google Business Profile, for when you want more from Google.

How much does a website cost?

To own it: $2,500 for a 5-page website, with Website SEO included, and $125 for each extra page. To rent it: $300 a month for 5 pages, plus $15 a month for each extra page, with upkeep included. Either way, your town pages count toward the 5.

How long does a site take?

About a week, from the first day of research to launch on day 7. The week depends on getting your photos and your approval of the page designs on time.

How much is monthly upkeep?

For owners, $150 a month on a 12-month agreement or $125 on 24, with hosting, a monthly report and site care. Your first agreement is 12 or 24 months. After that, you can renew for 6, 12 or 24 (6 months is $175 a month). It also covers 5 hours of edits a quarter, including 1 seasonal refresh. Unused hours expire at the end of each quarter, and for anything beyond that, just email us and we'll quote it. If you rent, upkeep is already included.

What if I don't like it?

We keep working on it with you until you're happy. You don't pay the second half until you are. And once it's paid, the website is yours, in writing.

Can I rent a website instead?

Yes. It’s $300 a month for 5 pages, plus $15 a month for each extra page, with hosting, site care, a monthly report and edits included. Your first agreement is 12 months at $300 a month (+$15 a page past 5). After that, renew for 6 months ($300 + $15 a page), 12 months ($275 + $12 a page) or 24 months ($250 + $10 a page). You can buy it out later. How renting works

What happens when my contract ends?

You can renew for 6, 12 or 24 months. If you don't, the site comes down. If you own it, we keep a saved copy until you're ready to come back, and if you'd rather have someone else look after it, just let us know and we'll move it for you, free. A rented site comes down the same way, and stays with us unless you buy it out.

How much is SEO+?

$150 a month, with either plan: Google Business Profile setup and plan, 4 Google posts a month, and ongoing SEO.

How do I pay?

If you own it, 50% to start, and the other 50% once you're happy with it, before it goes live. If you rent, you pay monthly. Monthly plans (rent, upkeep and SEO+) are paid by card each month, or by a monthly invoice you pay by bank transfer (ACH).

What if I want to leave?

If you own it, the site is yours once the build is paid. We hand everything over and help you move, with no handover fee. A rented site stays with us unless you buy it out.
