The deal, in plain english

The Deal, In Plain English

No fine print, no catch — this is the whole model.

$0 down. Nothing to pay to get started, no card required.
We build your site in 48 hours. A specialist builds your custom 5-page site.
You review the real, live site. Not a mockup or a PDF — the actual site, live on the web.
You only start paying if you approve it. $33/month, cancel anytime — or $397 one-time, with a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Most web design asks for payment, or at least a deposit, before you\'ve seen anything built. Ours doesn\'t. We build first, you look at the finished, live site, and only then do you decide whether to pay. If you don\'t approve it on the monthly plan, you owe nothing — there was never a deposit to lose.

Start to finish

Step by Step

Four steps. Notice the order — you approve before you pay, not the other way around.

01

Tell us about your business

A short form and a quick call — your trade, your town, your services.

02

We build your site in 48 hours

A specialist builds your 5-page site, SEO-ready, live for you to review.

03

You review the live site

The real thing, not a preview — you see exactly what visitors will see.

04

You approve it — pay only now

Say yes and it's $33/month or $397 one-time. Don't approve it, and you owe nothing.

Same build, every time

What You Get

The build itself doesn't change depending on how you pay for it.

Custom 5-page site. Home, About, Services, Blog, Contact — built for your business, not a shared template.
Hosting + SSL. No separate hosting bill to juggle, no "not secure" warning.
Blog page. Keeps publishing so the site never reads as abandoned.
Google review widget. Your real reviews, shown on the page automatically.
Ongoing updates. The site keeps working after launch, not left to rot.
SEO foundation. Clean structure and fast pages baked in from day one.
RateGather widget manager showing a live, embeddable Google reviews widget for a website

Why it works

Why Approve-Before-You-Pay Works

Because you see the real site before any money changes hands, there's nothing at risk if you don't like it.

Most web design projects ask for payment, or at least a deposit, before any work is shown to you. That means the risk sits with you: if the finished site isn't what you wanted, the money's already gone. Flip the order and the risk disappears. We build the site first. You look at the real, live result. Only then do you decide whether it's worth $33 a month or $397 outright. There's no deposit to write off, because there was never a deposit in the first place.
