Two ways to pay,
plus ecommerce.

No. The monthly plan is a service, not a purchase on layaway. I design, build, host, and maintain the site, and it stays with me: as long as you're on the plan it's cared for, and if you stop paying, the site comes down. Your domain name and your content are yours from day one, and they leave with you. Cancel inside the first twelve months and you owe the rest of the build cost: the lump-sum price of your site ($3,800 for a standard five-pager) minus what you've paid so far. Prefer to pay once? That's the lump-sum plan: $3,800, and the site is yours to keep. Host it anywhere, nothing more owed to me.

WordPress sites need constant plugin updates, security patches, and maintenance. That complexity adds cost and failure points. I hand-code static sites that are fast, secure, and don't break. There's nothing to hack, nothing to update, and pages load in under a second. For most small businesses, this is the better tool.

Yes. Every site I build is optimized for search from day one: clean markup, fast load times, proper meta tags, schema markup, and initial Google Business Profile setup. Ongoing profile work (posts, photos, review strategy) is part of monthly SEO, a separate service. I can't promise specific rankings (anyone who does is lying), but you'll have a technically sound foundation that Google can index and rank.

Monthly plan clients get unlimited edits included: text updates, photo swaps, whatever you need. Send me a message and it is handled. Lump-sum clients: one-off changes are $95/hr, or add unlimited edits for $50/mo with a three-month minimum. A brand-new page is separate on either plan: one-time $100 per page.

Small businesses that want a real working website without the agency overhead. Restaurants, contractors, consultants, and local service businesses that need customers to find them online: that is exactly who I work with. I'm not the right fit for complex web apps, marketplaces, or projects that need a big team.
