QUOTES · HOW QUOTES WORK

Plan first, price second

This site posts no price list. The same "build me a website" can mean five pages or fifty — one posted number would be wrong for everyone. Instead: you lay out what you need, we quote a fixed price by scope, itemized into the contract, and the number does not move mid-project.

Four steps to a quote

1

Explain the problem

Leave your contact details or call us and explain what you want solved. We reply within one business day with a plan and a fixed price.

2

Review and approve the design

You see the design first, then we build. We revise until you approve it, and the second payment is due on approval.

3

Build and test

Work moves forward by milestones, with a progress page you can check each week — no need to chase us for updates.

4

Launch and ongoing support

The final payment is due on launch and acceptance. After that, managed support stays alongside you, with data reconciled every month.

What a quote spells out

Scope list

Which pages, which features, which languages — itemized. Anything not on the list is not included by default; additions are discussed first.

One fixed total

The total is set once and goes into the contract. New work outside the scope is quoted and confirmed by you before it is done — never built first and billed later.

Payment rhythm

40% to start, 40% when the design is approved, 20% when the work passes acceptance. Every payment matches a result you can see; if acceptance fails, the next payment is not due.

Third-party costs

Domains, hosting, paid plugins and ad spend are paid by you straight to the provider. We set them up but never handle the money, so every cost has a paper trail.

Monthly services

Ongoing work like SEO, ads and hosting is signed monthly, reconciled in a monthly report, and can stop any month — no long lock-in.

Aftercare limits

Problems in the delivered work itself are fixed free for 30 days after a website launches and 60 days after an app release. Hosting coverage follows your contract tier.
