The math
Cheap websites are expensive.
A $300 site that doesn't bring calls costs more than a $2k site that does. Here's some illustrative math for typical Iowa service businesses — your real numbers will vary.

Questions, answered
The straight answers, no hand-waving.
How long does a website actually take?
Starter sites go live in about 5 days. Growth sites in 7. Premium in 10–14. We can move faster if you have an emergency (a season, a new location, a competitor catching up) — just say so.
Do I own the website when we're done?
Yes. Domain, code, content, photos, logins — everything is in your name. If you ever stop working with us, the site keeps running. No ransom, no lock-in.
What about hosting and the domain?
Your build fee includes the first 12 months of hosting on fast, modern infrastructure — plus your domain registration. After year 1 you can either renew the hosting and domain on your own (usually $0–$15/month, depending on host) or roll into a $99/month Care plan that covers hosting, domain renewal, edits, and security updates. Month-to-month, cancel anytime.
Can I edit it myself after launch?
We don't bury you in a clunky admin panel. The deal is simpler: text us. New hours, updated prices, a fresh photo from the job site — send it over, it's usually live the same day. That's what the $99/month Care plan is for. No annual contract — pay one month, cancel the next if you want.
Why monthly care plans? Isn't a website 'one and done'?
No site is. Hours change, plugins break, Google updates the rules, competitors catch up. Care plans keep your site fresh, secure, and ranking — month-to-month, no annual commitment, cancel anytime. Most clients break even on one extra lead a year.
Do you do SEO and Google Ads?
Local SEO is built into every Growth and Premium site. Ongoing SEO comes with Care + SEO. Google Ads management is on the Lead Engine plan — we manage the campaigns, you cover the ad spend.
Why should I pick you over a $300 cousin or a $10k agency?
A $300 site usually costs you more in lost calls than it saves. A $10k agency wires up a project manager, a strategist, an account exec, and a designer to ship the same site we ship in a week. We're the middle: real quality, local, no theater.
