What we do, in detail.
Two services. Both done by the people you actually hire. Below is what each one costs you in attention and what it gives you back. No upsell ladders. No agency-of-record contracts with teeth.
01— Hand-built websites.
Every word, every line of code, every pixel comes from us. No template skin. No drag-and-drop builder. No fragile tower of plugins. What you end up with is light, fast, accessible, and 100% yours: code you can read, hosting you can swap, copy you can edit.
- The right tool, never the trendiestAstro, Eleventy, or plain HTML when that's what the job actually needs. We pick the smallest hammer that does the work.
- Real design, not template skinCustom type scale, color system, grid, and components built for your brand. Looks like you, not like 4,000 other businesses.
- Accessibility from line oneWCAG AA. Keyboard navigation. Focus rings. ARIA where it counts. Audited, not assumed.
- Performance budgets that holdUnder 150kb median page weight. 98+ Lighthouse on mobile, or we keep working until it gets there.
- Forms, payments, bookingsStripe, Netlify Forms, Cal.com, MailerLite. Wired in cleanly, with none of the marketing-tag bloat slowing your site to a crawl.
- Edge-hosted, cheap to runCloudflare Pages or Netlify. Most clients pay under $25 a month for hosting once we hand over.
- A handover that doesn't leave you stuckGitHub repo, README, environment notes, a 20-minute walkthrough video. The keys are yours forever.
- Care plan if you want one$240/mo covers monthly edits, dependency updates, uptime monitoring, and our priority bug-fix line.
02— Built for search.
SEO is a craft, not a service tier. We do the slow, technical, deeply uncool work that gets your site read by humans and understood by search engines. Then we report what happened in plain English. A real person signs the report.
- 40-point technical auditCrawlability, indexation, schema, sitemaps, canonicals, hreflang, Core Web Vitals. Findings ranked by how much they'll actually move the needle.
- Keyword research and mappingEvery search your buyer would type. You see the map. You decide what's worth chasing.
- On-page rewrites that read like EnglishReal H-tag structure, meta titles humans actually click, and copy that sounds like a person wrote it. Edits go straight into your repo.
- Local SEOGoogle Business Profile, NAP citations, local schema, reviews flow. Built to survive the next algorithm change.
- Content briefs, not AI slopWe hand you a brief. You (or a writer we trust) write the article. We refuse to publish robot-generated junk under your name.
- Honest link buildingDigital PR, partner pages, local press. No PBNs. No rented links. No shortcuts that get penalized in six months.
- Monthly written reportTwo pages, written by a person, signed by a person. What moved, what we tried, what's next.
- Quarterly check-in call60 unhurried minutes by video. In person if you're nearby and feel like coffee.
03— Keeping things running smoothly.
Every site we ship comes with 60 days of free care. After that, you can pick up a care plan for the invisible work that prevents the very visible failures: dependency updates, security patches, monthly content edits, monitoring. Cancel any month. No clawback fees.
- Monthly content editsUp to 90 minutes of design or copy edits each month. Don't use them? They roll over.
- Dependency & security updatesWe patch, test on staging, deploy. You hear from us only if something interesting happens.
- Uptime monitoringHealth checks every minute. Our phones buzz before yours does. Most of the time, we've already fixed it.
- Backups & disaster drillsDaily, offsite, encrypted. Quarterly restore tests so we know the backups actually work when it counts.
- Analytics & report hygieneSearch Console, GA4, and your CRM kept clean. No tag bloat. No broken events sitting there for six months.
- Bug-fix lineOne Slack channel. Four-hour response weekdays. Capped at 4 hours a month, and most clients never use them all.
04— Honest second opinions.
