Small business website packages with transparent pricing and predictable timelines.

Our small business website design packages run $799 for Essential, $1,299 for Business, $1,999 for Business+, and from $4,800 for Custom. Every tier is fixed-fee with a written scope. The deposit and balance-on-launch split is published on each card. You will never get an hourly invoice from us mid-project.

Yes, upward only, and we re-quote before any extra work begins. About 1 in 5 clients move from Essential to Business or from Business to Business+ once they see the discovery output. We bill the difference, never the full new tier price. Downgrading mid-project is not possible because the design and build are already underway, but you can scope down on a future project.

Essential is built on a real CMS (Webflow or WordPress, your choice) with a custom layout, not a stock template. We do the writing structure for you, set up basic SEO properly, and ship a site you actually own from day one. Wix is fine for some businesses, but you do not own the platform and you are locked in. Our Essential website package for small business owners keeps your options open as you grow.

Three reasons. E-commerce setup adds real complexity through payment, inventory, shipping, and tax configuration. Professional copywriting on five pages takes a senior writer fifteen hours or more. The review automation system requires platform setup plus workflow design. Each is a deliberate addition, not an upsell. If you do not need any of the three, stay on Business.

Yes. Hosting and maintenance after year one is $480 per year for Essential and Business, $720 per year for Business+, and custom-priced for Custom. We never auto-renew without notice. You can also self-host on your own AWS, Vercel, Webflow, or WordPress account at any time. We provide the export.

It is literal. A revision round is one consolidated round of feedback per phase (design, build, content). Within a round you can request as many changes as you want. Between rounds the design moves forward. We have found this rhythm produces better outcomes than unlimited revisions, which tend to spiral. If you genuinely need more rounds, additional rounds are $400 each.

If the delay is on our side, we do not charge extra. If it is because content is late or feedback takes longer than the round window, the timeline shifts but the price holds. We flag risks two weeks in advance. Never with a surprise email the day of launch. That is the operating discipline most other website packages for small businesses skip.

Sometimes, usually under the Custom tier. If you have a designer who has done the design and you just need build, we can scope a build-only engagement starting at $3,200. If you have a developer and need design, that is typically $4,800 to $8,000 depending on page count.

Yes. Every tier defaults to a deposit plus balance-on-launch split, which works for most small businesses. For Business+ and Custom we can split into thirds (deposit, midpoint, launch) on request. We do not carry interest or financing. Payment plans are simply scheduled.

It has never happened in 11 years, but the protection is structural. Each phase is signed off in writing before moving forward. Design is approved before we build. Build is reviewed before we launch. If something is off, we catch it inside a revision round, not at the end. Worst case, if a phase output is genuinely unusable, we redo the phase at no charge.

Essential fits a solo operator or new business that needs a credible online presence in three weeks. Business fits a service business with two or more team members competing locally on Google. Business+ fits a small shop adding e-commerce or a service business that needs review automation and copy. Custom fits multi-location, multi-language, or integration-heavy work. We will recommend the right one on the call, including "none" if you should DIY for now.
