What a website actually costs.

No quotes to chase and no discovery call before you're allowed to hear a number. Three options, and the number is the number. You see the finished site before you pay for it — if it isn't right, you walk away and it hasn't cost you anything.

One scrolling page with everything on it: who you are, what you do, and how to book you. Right for sole traders and anyone just getting started.

Five pages + assistant
$997 to build
$147 / month or $1,470 a year — two months free

The five-page site, plus an assistant built on your business that answers your customers while you're asleep — and tells you every month what they asked.

7 days free to look it over. The build fee is due within 7 days of completion.
Three rounds of changes before it goes live.

What the assistant does

Included

  • Everything in the five-page build
  • A text assistant trained on your prices, services and hours
  • It answers only what you've told it — it cannot make something up
  • Anything it doesn't know, it hands straight to you with your number
  • It takes a name and a number when someone's ready
  • A monthly list of what your customers actually asked it

Not included

  • Taking payments or card details — it never asks for them
  • Booking into a live calendar
  • Answering in languages other than English
  • Voice — it's text only

That last list is deliberate. An assistant that guesses makes promises you have to keep.

What the monthly covers

The monthly is the part that matters — it's what stops a website quietly going stale, breaking, or sending enquiries nowhere. Each tier includes everything in the one before it.

$47 Looked after
  • Hosting, domain connection and security certificate
  • Small changes — prices, hours, photos, wording
  • Anything that breaks, fixed
  • Daily backups and uptime monitoring
  • Security and software updates
  • Changes live within three working days
$97 All of that, plus
  • Email on your own name — adam@yourbusiness.com.au, through the inbox you already use
  • A health check every month, emailed to you — the same check I run on other people's sites, run on yours
  • Who visited and where they came from, in plain English
  • Changes live the same day
  • Your Google listing kept current
$147 All of that, plus
  • Your assistant, answering customers at eleven at night
  • What your customers actually asked — sent to you monthly. The questions nobody rings up to ask.
  • One new page a year, included
  • A seasonal refresh twice a year — new headline, new offer, new photos on the front

Not included at any tier

  • Redesigns and rebuilds
  • New pages beyond what your plan includes
  • Advertising and SEO campaigns
  • Writing your copy or supplying photography
  • Third-party costs — domain registration, booking platforms

Bigger jobs

Anything past a small change — extra pages, an online shop, a booking system, an ad campaign. Nothing is off the table. Tell me what you're after and I'll give you one number for the whole job, agreed before I start. It doesn't move, and there's no meter running while I work.

Plain answers

Is there an annual option?

Yes, on all three. Pay for 12 months and you only pay for 10 — $470 instead of $564, $970 instead of $1,164, or $1,470 instead of $1,764. The build fee is unchanged either way. Annual plans are non-refundable, but if you cancel you keep the site.

Is there a free trial?

Yes, and it starts when the site is finished rather than when you enquire. The one-page site gives you 14 days; the five-page options give you 7 days. Nothing is charged until it ends, and you'll get a reminder first. During the trial the site runs on a Studio Velox address — it moves onto your own domain once the first payment clears.

Is the one-page site really free?

The build is, and there's no catch in the small print. I'd rather look after a site properly for years than charge a big fee once and disappear — so the free build only makes sense alongside the monthly plan. I'm also at the stage of wanting to help people get off the ground, and a $1,500 quote is what usually stops them.

What counts as a small change?

Anything I can do in well under an hour. New dates, a price update, swapping a photo, fixing a typo, adding a review. If a request is bigger than that I'll tell you before doing it, never after.

What if I need it faster than 7 days?

Ask. The honest answer is that 7 days is what I can promise everybody, and I'd rather not quietly push someone else's job back. If it's genuinely urgent there's usually a way to do it, and it'll be priced accordingly so it's fair on the people already waiting.

What if I just want to buy it outright?

That can be arranged — we agree a figure for the site, you own it, and that's the end of it. Anything you need afterwards is quoted job by job. It costs more up front than the monthly, because the monthly is what pays for looking after it.

How do I ask for a change?

Message me. No ticket system and no portal to learn. Most changes are live the same day.

Who owns the site and the domain?

You do. The domain is registered in your name and the website is yours. If you ever leave, you take it with you.

Is there a minimum term on the free build?

No, and there's no exit fee either. You get 14 days free to look it over — cancel in that time and you've paid nothing, though the site comes down. After that it's $47 a month and you can stop whenever you like. The last month you paid for is the end of it, and the site stays yours.

How does billing work?

Card payment through Stripe. The monthly fee comes out automatically on the same date each month, and you can update your card or manage the plan yourself at any time.
