5-page small business websites start from $650 for Squarespace-based websites, and $1,000 for hand-coded websites. The overall cost of a website is based on the scope of the work, total number of pages, and the time involved. Websites with fewer pages are available at reduced rates. We offer payment installment plans on all websites $1000 in price or higher. All websites include the following:
Our websites are optimized for loading speed and responsiveness. These are key factors in how well your site performs in search engine rankings
We target page load times under 2 seconds for our Squarespace sites, and under 1 second for our hand-coded sites.
All of our websites are designed specifically for your business and do not rely on pre-made themes. Our hand-coded sites offer a high level of customization, and we can also incorporate custom code into Squarespace-based sites for more refined, unique designs.
We offer a variety of current search engine optimization techniques.
We can also review your Google Business Profile and offer recommendations as needed.
Both our Squarespace-based and hand-coded websites offer high security. They also do not require us to perform routine security updates, patches, or extra maintenance that many other firms include in their monthly hosting fee.
We are committed to always being available to update our websites after they are launched.
Our Squarespace-based websites allow customers to perform many content updates independently, but some updates must be requested. These include:
Our hand-coded sites require us to perform all updates directly.
Updates can be requested at any time and are performed at a standard hourly rate of $35 per hour with no minimum time requirement.
Our hand-coded websites offer a variety of modern website add-ons, including:
Our Squarespace websites support a similar range of website add-ons, including:
Our approach is unique in that we offer both CMS-based and hand-coded websites. Here are some of the key differences:
CMS-based sites
A Content Management System (CMS) website is built on a platform that allows users to easily create, edit, and publish content—without any need for coding knowledge. Our preferred CMS is Squarespace. We use its intuitive design tools, combined with custom code, to craft clean, modern websites that stand out from many sites built with their platform.
After your website is launched, you'll have the ability to make a wide range of page updates yourself—such as updating text, changing images, or adding and removing page sections.
Hand-coded websites
For clients looking for something truly one-of-a-kind, we also build 100% hand-coded websites from the ground up. This approach allows for greater creative freedom and and more tailored website designs.
Our hand-coded websites are also optimized to achieve faster page loading speeds, which can help businesses with a smaller online presence rank higher in search engine results. Additionally, if your site includes embedded videos and numerous images, we can achieve significantly faster load times compared to sites built with a CMS.
Shared Benefits
Both our hand-coded and Squarespace-based sites minimize our need to pay for website themes and plugins. We also do not have to charge you to do weekly software updates, security updates, or any of the other costs that are generally passed onto customers. Our lean business model allows us to develop and host our websites in a highly cost-effective way, which lets us pass much of the savings onto our customers.

04This brief Q&A is meant to answer some additional questions you may have about our services and ongoing website support.
We focus on small and medium-sized business websites. Whether you are a traditional business organization or a sole proprietor, we can build you an affordable website tailored to your services.
We currently do not build e-commerce websites, although we do plan to add this to our available services in the future.
We use a well-established invoicing system for collecting payments. A partial down payment is required before we begin the development work. Depending on whether or not a payment installment plan is used, the balance will either be due upon project completion and the launch of a website or at the specified payment installment dates.
Yes, if you have an existing website, we can rebuild it as either a hand-coded or Squarespace-based website.
We will assess requests to migrate websites on a case-by-case basis. We can use your original existing content and images, and will determine how much time would be required to build a new website based on the number of pages and amount of content.
When you request updates, we will assess the request and aim to respond within 24 hours. The time updates take will vary based on the scope of them, but we will work to implement them within a timely manner.
We keep up to date with technical SEO best practices and website design guidelines and will make sure your website meets them.
Our hand-coded and Squarespace-based websites do not require us to perform regular software updates or patches. In both cases, Squarespace and the hosting service we use for our hand-coded sites handle their security updates independently.
Off-page SEO can consist of areas such as marketing, social media management, ad campaigns, etc. While we perform all of the on-page SEO that's related to the website's performance and content, we do not provide the off-page services directly. We recommend hiring a SEO specialist externally if you are interested in off-page SEO packages and services.
Yes, we can provide assistance with domain registration if needed, or transfer your existing domain. Please note that customers are responsible for their yearly domain registration costs.
