Package finder

Not sure which fits? Three questions.

Answer them and I’ll point you to a starting package, with the reason. It’s a starting point for our call, not a quote.

Question 1 of 3How many pages do you think you need?
Question 2 of 3Who’ll update the site?
Question 3 of 3Does the site need any of these?

“Not sure” on pages counts as up to 5, and we’ll count pages together on the call.

Starting prices

What “from” means.

The number on each package is where it starts. Your proposal lists every line item and the total before you sign, and that total is fixed. If you later want something that wasn’t in it, I’ll quote it separately and you decide.

Ongoing costs

After launch, in plain numbers.

Care plans start at $199 a month. Hosting typically costs $0–20 a month, billed to your own account.

Guarantees

Before you sign, and after launch.

  • A free call and a real mockup first.

    A 30-minute call and a real mockup of your homepage before you sign anything. If you don’t love it, walk away.

  • Fixed fee, in writing.

    A flat fee with every line item, signed before work starts. No surprise change orders.

  • 30-day satisfaction guarantee.

    If, within 30 days of launch, you tell me your new site isn’t materially better than what you had, I refund the final milestone. Its amount is in your proposal.

Yours to keep

You own everything.

The code lives in a Git repository that’s transferred to you at launch. Your domain and hosting are in your name. No lock-in, and no website-builder subscription.

  • Git repository in your name
  • Domain in your name
  • Hosting account in your name
  • Logins for your content editor (Professional and Custom)

Compare

Other ways to get a website.

Each has its place. Here’s a fair picture of how they differ.

  • Website builders, including AI builders

    Quick to start and fine if you want to do it yourself. You rent the site, the subscription continues for as long as it’s up, and support is a queue.

  • Agencies

    A team and a process, usually at a higher price, and you’ll often work through an account manager.

  • Old Saybrook IT Solutions

    One person designs and builds it, at a fixed fee. You own everything, hosting is typically $0–20 a month, and you can call the person who built it.

Questions

Money questions.

How do payments work?

In milestones set out in your proposal. You know every amount before you sign.

What does the guarantee cover?

The final milestone. If, within 30 days of launch, you tell me your new site isn’t materially better than what you had, I refund it. Its amount is in your proposal.

What will I pay after launch?

Hosting typically costs $0–20 a month, billed to your own account. A care plan is optional and starts at $199 a month. There’s no website-builder subscription; if you take payments, the card processor charges its usual fee.
