Every project starts blank. No templates. No recycled layouts. No AI-generated copy pretending to be yours. You're not paying for a website — you're paying for a system that makes your business look as serious online as it does in real life.
Pick the pace that fits. The craft is identical across all three.
Your full site, built right. Research, custom design, real development. For the business that needs one website that actually converts — and wants to get it done properly, once.
We'd rather tell you up front what's not in scope than add it as a surprise line item later. If something you need isn't here, ask. We'll either include it or explain why we can't.
Same full site. Same custom design. Same development. Half the timeline. For the business that needed this site yesterday — the grand opening, the investor pitch, the seasonal window that closes in three weeks.
If we miss the 14-day deadline, you get 20% back per week of delay. No arguing, no small print, no "acts of God" clauses.
The only exception: delays caused by you not responding within 24 hours to our requests (approvals, content, credentials). Which is fair.
After launch, we stay. A website isn't a one-time purchase — it's a machine that needs tuning. Growth Partner is the difference between a site that sits there and a site that compounds.
The same process runs every project, whether Foundation or Priority Build. The timeline compresses, the steps don't. Here's what happens from the moment you sign the contract.
The following are standard across Foundation and Priority Build. You don't have to ask. You don't have to negotiate. You don't get a surprise invoice two weeks in.
Most agencies hide their refund terms in a PDF you have to ask for. We publish ours on the front page because we'd rather have the hard conversation now than after you've paid.
The objections we've heard most, answered directly. If your question isn't here, email us and we'll add it.
Because what you're buying is different.
The $400 guy delivers a WordPress theme that looks like every other WordPress theme. They install a template, change the colors to yours, drop in your logo, hand you a login, and disappear. Six months later you're on page 5 of Google and your site looks like the other seven contractors in your area.
What we deliver is a site designed specifically for your business — researched against your actual competitors, written for your actual customers, built to rank for the searches that bring you work. The difference shows up in 90 days when your phone starts ringing.
If you only need a website to exist so that you can point clients to it, the $400 guy is genuinely the right call. If you need a website that generates leads, you need the $2,450 one. We're transparent about which problem we solve.
Yes. Completely.
The domain is registered in your name from day one. The hosting account is yours. The Figma file, every design asset, every line of code — all transferred to you at handover. If you ever want to stop working with us, you walk away with everything. No hostage situations, no "we hold your site until you pay us another $500" — that's an agency red flag we refuse to participate in.
Tell us. That's why we show it to you before building.
You get 3 revision rounds. Each round can include unlimited changes — move a section, change a color, rewrite a headline, scrap a page and redo it. Most projects only use 1–2 rounds because we invest heavily in research and wireframes first, so the visual design rarely surprises you.
If after 3 rounds you still don't like it, we talk. We've never had this happen — but if it did, we'd either do a free 4th round or refund 75% and part ways. We're not going to force you to ship a site you don't believe in.
Usually yes.
If you already have a domain, we keep it. If your hosting is decent (SiteGround, Cloudways, Kinsta, most modern providers), we work with it. If you're on a slow shared host that'll kill your SEO, we'll recommend switching to Hostinger Business or similar — but it's your call. We'll migrate your site there at no extra cost if you decide to move.
The one non-negotiable: the site must be on hosting that supports HTTPS, PHP 8+, and a modern WordPress install. If your current host doesn't, we'll explain why and help you switch.
No. We do the heavy lifting.
Copy: We write the first draft for every page. You review, edit, or rewrite. We iterate until it sounds like you — usually 1–2 passes.
Photography: If you have existing project photos, we use them. If you don't, we'll recommend a local photographer and handle the shoot art direction if useful. Professional photos are a separate cost — typically $300–$800 locally — but we'll tell you in advance if your site really needs them.
Logos/brand: If you don't have one, we design it. Included in the project cost.
What we need from you: the questionnaire answered honestly, approvals within 24 hours, and your existing content (if any) in one organized folder. That's it.
Three options, depending on what you actually need:
Nothing — you're self-sufficient. The handover document shows you how to edit text, swap photos, add new blog posts, update team members. Most of our clients manage their own site post-launch.
Pay-as-you-go fixes. Something breaks or you want a change you don't want to DIY. Email us, we send a quote — usually $40–$150 for small things, we'll estimate larger work.
Growth Partner retainer. For businesses that want continuous SEO work, blog content, performance reports, and unlimited minor changes. $395/mo, 3-month minimum. Most clients who launch with us move here after 60 days.
We don't run paid ads. That's a specialist discipline that deserves specialist attention, but we'd rather refer you to someone great than pretend we're great at it.
What we do handle: SEO (organic rankings), content (blog, landing pages), email campaigns, and Google Business Profile optimization. If you want a single team for everything, we work regularly with a paid ads partner — happy to introduce you.
Yes, with caveats.
For your business name: Within 2-4 weeks of launch, anyone Googling your business name directly will find you. Guaranteed.
For competitive search terms (like "sandblasting Cleveland" or "HVAC repair Toronto"): depends on your market. Typically 80–120 days of consistent content and local SEO work to rank on page 1. This is why Growth Partner exists — a launched site alone won't compete, but a launched site plus 3 months of focused SEO will.
We'll be honest with you during discovery about how competitive your market is and what realistic ranking timelines look like. No one can promise page 1 in 30 days. Anyone who does is lying.
You've read this far. You're not window-shopping. Book a 30-minute call — we'll look at your current site together, tell you exactly what we'd change and why, and quote the work with no pressure to commit.
If we're not a fit, we'll tell you. If you're better served by someone else, we'll refer you. The worst outcome of booking a call is you walk away with a clearer picture of what your site actually needs.
Websites for service businesses that deserve better than a template.
