Small business website design, done by the person who builds it
Custom sites for small service companies, built across the country. $750 to $2,500 to build, $500 a month after, and any minor change is live within 4 hours of your text.
One person, start to finish. There is no account manager, because there is no one to manage.
No form. No calendar link. No discovery call.
Who this is for
Service businesses that get paid to show up
Built for
Companies where a customer searches, calls, and someone drives out. Roofing, plumbing, HVAC, electrical, septic, landscaping, pest control, tree work, fencing, garage doors, paving, pools, concrete, junk removal, appliance repair, cleaning.
The work is the same across all of them: real pages for real searches, a phone number that is always one tap away, and a site that can change the day your business does.
Not built for
Online stores, booking-heavy software, marketplaces, anything needing accounts and logins. I can build those — several of my own sites are exactly that — but it is not what this $750 to $2,500 price covers.
If that is what you need, text me anyway and I will tell you straight whether it is worth quoting.
What actually goes wrong
Four things nobody selling you a website says
01
The site is not the bottleneck. The queue is.
Almost every small business owner I talk to has a site that is fine and a change request that is three weeks old. The design is not what is costing them work — the wait is.
02
You are paying for someone else's overhead
A $2,000 monthly buys an account manager, a project manager, a strategist and a developer. Four people forwarding your email. One person doing the work costs less and answers faster.
03
A five-page site ranks for about five things
Every service you offer is a separate search by a separate person with separate anxiety. Depth beats polish, and it is not close.
04
Speed is a revenue number, not a technical one
Most small business sites take four to seven seconds on cell service. The people who leave at second three never fill out a form, so nothing in your analytics tells you they existed.

Proof you can open
16 live sites, built and run here
16 production sites built in this studio are live right now, including one carrying 4,420,000 pages. Every Lighthouse score quoted on this site was measured on a real browser and is listed beside the URL it came from.
There is no logo bar here, and there is exactly one client review, printed whole with a name and a live store attached to it. Work you can open and time yourself is harder to fake than a wall of quotes.

Pricing
Here's the price. All of it.
Build
$750–$2,500one time
Most roofing and septic builds land between $1,200 and $1,800. You get the exact number by text before anything starts, and it doesn't move after that.
This range is quoted, not self-serve, because the price moves with your services and markets. Want to skip the quote and buy now instead? Order the $1,000 starter build — no call, checkout takes a form.
What you get
- A page for every service and every townSomebody searching “septic pumping” lands on your septic pumping page, not your homepage.
- Written for you, not filled in by youWritten for you off one 30-minute call. You approve it before it ships.
- A quote form that is four fieldsName, phone, address, what’s wrong. Every extra field costs you leads.
- Your Google reviews on the pageReal star rating, updating itself. Not a screenshot from 2019.
- Schema and AEO structure built inHours, service area and answers in the format Google and AI actually read.
- Live in a weekYou see it on a staging link first. Nothing goes public without your say.
What moves the price
- How many services you sell. A tree service with 4 services is cheaper than an HVAC company with 14.
- How many markets you want to rank in. 3 is a smaller build than 25.
- Whether you need photos shot or you already have them.
- Whether you're moving an old site over or starting clean.
The Cycle — $500/month
That's $6,000 a year. One roof is $12,000, and after materials and labor one extra job still covers it. Everything after that is yours.
What's in it
- Unlimited edits by textEvery one live within 4 hours on a business day. No ticket, no call.
- A new page whenever you add a service or a townWritten, built and indexed. Not a bullet added to an existing page.
- SEO for the markets you actually sell intoTargeted where your buyers are, not a national keyword report you will never read.
- AEO — getting named when someone asks AI for your tradeMeasured with aivisibilitymetrics.com, a tool we built, so you see whether it moved.
- Hosting, SSL, backups, uptime monitoringIf it goes down at 2 AM, we find out before you do.
- One short note a month, in plain EnglishWhat moved, what changed, what's next. No 40-page dashboard export.
Cancel any month, no notice and no exit fee. The site is yours either way — it moves to your own hosting account and the files are handed over. Nothing gets held hostage or shut off.
5 builds a month, and that's the cap. Not a countdown timer — it's how many one builder can do properly. When a month is full you get the next open date instead of being stacked up.
