Pricing

One price. Everything included.

Your website as a service at the Founding Client rate: $749 to start, $179 a month - locked for life (future price: $1,999 + $249/mo) - design, hosting, AI chatbot, weekly content, and lead capture, all in. The custom build alone is a $12,000+ value, absorbed up front. No tiers, no upsells, and a published buyout schedule if you ever want to own it outright. For a deep dive into what each piece does, head to the services page.

Why one price

Priced like software, built like craft

One flat monthly covers the complete site and everything that keeps it working - and the published buyout schedule means you are never locked in. What follows is the entire price list.

Do the Math

What this costs if you hire it out piece by piece.

Every piece of your subscription is something businesses normally buy separately - a designer here, a copywriter there, a hosting bill, a chatbot tool. Here is the same shopping list at typical going rates, priced conservatively.

Want to own it outright? Here's the exact price.

Most website subscriptions are a roach motel - easy to get into, impossible to leave with your site. Ours is not. The buyout schedule below is published, guaranteed in your agreement, and shrinks every year you are with us. Pay it at any time and the site is yours - full code, design, images, and content - plus our help moving it wherever you want.

Your tenure Buyout price
Months 1-12 $7,499
Months 13-24 $3,999
Months 25-36 $1,999
Months 37-48 $999
Month 49 on $299 transfer fee

Your domain name and your content are yours from day one regardless - the buyout covers the site itself: our code, design, and everything we built and wrote for you. Even the year-one buyout is a fraction of the $19,000+ the same site costs hired out piece by piece. Full terms in the terms of service.

Worth Comparing

How this stacks up against the big platforms.

Wix and Squarespace also charge monthly - but you do the building, the writing, and the SEO yourself, forever. Here is the honest side-by-side on performance, rankings, lock-in, and what your time is worth.
