Do I need to know anything about websites?

No. That's the whole point. We handle everything — you never touch a dashboard, edit code, or figure out hosting. You just have a great website.

What if I want to make a change?

Email us. Your plan includes 3 straightforward content changes per month — things like new hours, a swapped photo, or a reworded paragraph. We typically have it live within a couple of business days.

Is this just a template?

No. Your site is custom-built for your business. It's designed around your brand, your services, and your customers — not a one-size-fits-all template.

What's included, and what does it cost?

One plan, $59/month, month-to-month, no setup fees and no contract. It includes a custom-built website (up to 15 sections or pages — articles and blog posts don't count toward that limit), hosting, security, domain management, professional email setup, ongoing SEO/AEO optimization, and 3 straightforward content changes per month by email. It also includes the Always-Fresh Content engine — 12 custom articles to start, a new one every quarter, with fresh content rotating onto your site every two weeks — and a Google Analytics property set up in your name, so your visitor data is yours and stays yours. There's nothing to upgrade to; everything we do is in the one plan.

Do I get a professional email address?

Yes — email setup is included. If you don't have business email yet, we'll get yourname@yourbusiness.com configured on Google Workspace, including the technical setup (SPF, DKIM, DMARC, domain verification) so your messages land in inboxes instead of spam folders. The Google Workspace plan is selected and paid for by you directly to Google (starting at $8/month per email address for Business Starter), separate from our service fee. If you already use your own email — Microsoft 365, Zoho, Fastmail, your existing host, anything else — that's fine too. Keep it. We'll just configure your domain's DNS records to work with whatever email provider you already use, so your existing setup keeps working on your new domain.

What's the Google Business Profile add-on?

For an extra $99/month — optional, on top of your plan — we'll fully handle your Google Business Profile alongside your website: weekly posts, prompt review responses, photo and Q&A management, local citation monitoring, and a monthly local search performance report. It's optional and you can add it or drop it anytime.

Yes, anytime, no questions asked. There's no contract and no cancellation fee.

How long does it take to get my site up?

Most sites are live within a few days of our initial conversation. We move fast — because we know you've got a business to run.

How do I find out when someone contacts me?

By email, immediately. When a visitor submits your contact form, the enquiry is emailed straight to you — their name, contact details, and what they wrote, all in the message. There's no dashboard to check and no app to log into, so nothing sits unread in a system you forgot about. The form itself blocks spam invisibly, so you're not fielding junk and your customers never have to solve a CAPTCHA to reach you.

What if I already have a website?

No problem. We can build you a new one and help transition everything over. You won't miss a beat.

Do I have to write blog posts or come up with content?

No — your site launches with a library of 12 articles written specifically for your business, and we add a new article every quarter you're with us. Fresh content rotates onto your site every two weeks automatically. Every article is written around your services, your customers, and the search terms people actually use to find businesses like yours — keeping your site looking active without you ever touching it. If you ever want to add a new article or change an existing one, just email us. It's included in the plan; there's no content add-on to buy.
