Website design & hosting, answered
Straight answers about pricing, how we work, and what happens after your site goes live. Don't see your question? Ask us.
Pricing
How much does a small business website cost?
$250 to design, build and launch it, then $25 a month for hosting and care. That one monthly price covers hosting, your domain name renewal, SSL, security updates and support, so there are no separate bills for domains, plugins or maintenance. See how much you could save.
What's included in the $250 setup?
A custom website design, development and launch, your domain registration and an SSL certificate, the padlock in the browser bar that tells visitors your site is secure.
What does the $25 a month cover?
Hosting, renewing your domain name every year, keeping your SSL certificate active, ongoing maintenance, security updates and support. It's everything a website needs to stay online, secure and working.
Is my domain name included?
Yes. We register your domain as part of setup, and your $25 monthly plan keeps it renewed every year for as long as we host your site. There is never a separate domain bill.
Hosting & ownership
Why do you only build websites you host?
Because the ongoing relationship is the point. When we build and host your site, we're accountable for all of it, with no finger-pointing between a designer and a hosting company. It's also what lets us keep setup at $250 instead of thousands.
What happens if I want to leave?
You can. If you'd like a full backup of your site to take with you, there's a one-time extraction fee and we'll package everything up.
Getting started
What do I need to get started?
Just a conversation about your business: what you do, who your customers are and what you want them to do on your site. A logo, photos and any existing text help, but we can work with whatever you have.
Can you rebuild my existing WordPress website?
Yes. We've moved established businesses off WordPress onto fast, hand-coded sites, carrying over their pages, content and SEO settings such as page titles, descriptions and page addresses, so the new site doesn't start from zero. See examples.
Do I need to be in Las Vegas?
No. We're based in Las Vegas and work with small businesses across the United States. Everything happens by phone and online.
Your site
Will my website work on phones?
Yes. Every site is designed to work on phones, tablets and desktops, with phone numbers you can tap to call.
Will my website show up on Google?
Every site launches with the search basics in place: unique page titles and descriptions, clean page addresses, structured data, a sitemap and fast load times. Rankings depend on many factors, so no one can honestly guarantee a position, but your site starts on solid ground.
Is my website secure?
Every site has SSL, receives security updates as part of the monthly plan. Because our sites are hand-coded with no plugins, there's far less for attackers to target than on a typical WordPress site.
What if I need help or changes after launch?
Get in touch. Ongoing support is part of your monthly plan, and you'll be talking to the people who built your site.
