How it works

From “I need a site” to “I’m live” — in five steps.

No project-manager runaround, no jargon, no waiting two months. Here’s the entire journey, start to finish — exactly what happens, who’s responsible, and how long each part takes. You’re only busy on 2 of them.

The five steps

Every step, in plain English.

We use both halves of the story: the short version, and what’s actually happening behind it. The numbered markers are the real sequence — follow them top to bottom.

  1. 01
    You · ~10 minutes Your turn

    Tell us about your business

    One short intake form — your hours, services, photos, the works. Don’t have copy written? We draft it with you using AI, then you approve every word.

    You fill in a simple questionnaire (about 10 minutes). If writing about your own business feels impossible, that’s normal — we generate a first draft of your headlines, about section, and service descriptions from your answers, and you edit until it sounds like you.

  2. 02
    Us · 2–5 days

    We build your site

    We design and build the whole thing — pages, photos, forms, SEO, and the Google setup — from our battle-tested kit. Usually a few days.

    Working from a proven component library means we’re not reinventing the wheel for every client. You get an original design tuned to your brand, with performance and SEO correct by default, fast.

  3. 03
    You · one round Your turn

    You review it

    You see the real site on a private link and tell us what to change. We make the edits and confirm. No surprises, no jargon.

    You review against a plain-English checklist: is everything accurate, do the buttons do the right thing, does it feel like your business? We fix anything that’s off before it goes anywhere public.

  4. 04
    Us · launch day

    We launch & get you found

    We connect your domain and email, switch on HTTPS, submit you to Google, and set up your Google Business Profile so you show up on Maps and Search.

    Launch day is handled end to end. Custom domain, secure HTTPS, email forwarding, sitemap submitted to Google, and your Google Business Profile claimed and optimized so people can actually find you.

  5. 05
    Us · ongoing

    We keep it running

    Your monthly care plan covers hosting, updates, security, and content changes. Email us a change; we make it, usually the same day.

    Sites rot when no one tends them. Your plan means yours never does — we handle updates, monitor uptime, keep dependencies patched, and make your content changes for you so you never touch code.

Your part is small

What you provide.

You don’t need a brief, a brand book, or polished copy. Hand us what you have — we fill the gaps and draft the rest. Most of this fits in one short intake form.

  • The basics: name, hours, services, contact info
  • Photos of your business, work, or team (or we use tasteful stock)
  • A logo and brand colors (or we pick for you)
  • A few minutes to review and approve

Everything else is us → design, build, copywriting help, SEO, the Google setup, launch, and the ongoing care that keeps it running. You own your site and your domain. If you ever want to leave, we hand everything over — no hostage situations.

Let’s get your business found.

Tell us a little about what you do. We’ll send back a free, no-pressure plan for your site — pages, price, and timeline.
