Custom websites starting at $300 setup, with managed service from $25/month.
A clear one-time build quote before work begins, then a managed monthly level matched to the website, systems, integrations, usage, and support we are responsible for operating after launch.
How setup pricing works
Custom website setup starts at $300. That is a minimum starting point, not a fixed price for every website. Your setup fee is quoted around design scope, page and content volume, functionality, integrations, migration needs, and how your business actually operates.
The one-time setup quote covers the agreed design, development, and integration work. Recurring third-party fees such as domains, paid software, APIs, booking tools, CRM, payment processing, and email providers stay separate unless the proposal explicitly says otherwise. Significant usage growth may also require an agreed managed-plan adjustment.

What can make setup cost more

- More pages, sections, locations, service areas, or a larger volume of content
- Heavier custom design work, illustration, or specialized visual treatments
- Copywriting, content organization, or substantial content cleanup
- Galleries, portfolios, project showcases, or before-and-after systems
- Production contact forms, transactional email delivery, or advanced form routing
- Booking, scheduling, CRM, or lead-tracking integrations
- Analytics, conversion tracking, or more advanced measurement setup
- Business email setup or changes to existing email infrastructure
- Automations or workflows connecting multiple business tools
- Third-party integrations that require configuration, testing, or custom logic
- Migrating an existing website, content, domain setup, or connected services
- Ecommerce, online payments, product catalogs, or checkout workflows
- Customer portals, user accounts, databases, or protected content
- Custom APIs, custom functionality, or application-like features
Managed website plans
After launch, your site stays on a monthly managed level matched to what we are actually responsible for operating. A straightforward website can stay near the standard managed level. Booking, payments, databases, dashboards, automations, or other backend systems may require a higher managed plan because they add ongoing infrastructure, monitoring, support, and operational responsibility. Included time does not roll over from month to month.

- Automation systems

Who owns what
Simple version: the business side is yours, and the technical upkeep is ours while you are on a plan. Your domain, business data, email and Google accounts, payment accounts, content, photos, and customer information all stay under your business.
We manage the hosting and deployment environment so you never have to think about servers, SSL, or updates. That environment stays managed by us for as long as you are on a plan rather than transferring automatically.
If you ever decide to move on, the source or a documented migration path can be provided under your agreement. Migration work may be quoted separately, and we will tell you plainly when a third-party tool is licensed rather than owned.
Six-month initial commitment
New managed website engagements begin with a six-month commitment unless the signed proposal says otherwise. That gives the setup, launch, technical configuration, monitoring, and ongoing management enough time to deliver real value instead of turning the relationship into short-term hosting.
Client referrals
Current managed clients can earn account credit equal to one month of their current plan when a referral becomes a managed client. The referred business receives the same dollar amount off setup, capped at 50% of the setup fee.
