Website design for small business
A site a small business can actually run: a handful of pages that say what you sell and where, a quote form that reaches your inbox, and a build you own outright rather than rent.
What small business businesses actually search for
We counted it rather than guessed: 108 search terms in this industry, 28,180 searches a month between them. The largest share is about getting found in search.

Our answer to the money question
A one page site is $800 to $2,500. A business site starts at $3,000. Ongoing search work is $250 / month, one month at a time, no lock in. The calculator on our home page gives your number in about a minute, and the written scope fixes it before anyone starts.
We publish this because most agencies in this industry do not. If a quote depends on a discovery call before anyone will say a range, that is a sales process, not a price.
Looking for ongoing search work rather than a new site? That is a separate page, with its own price. See it here.
