Web Design + SEO

Affordable web design and SEO packages for small businesses.

A free custom 5-page website when you start our Foundations local SEO program. $49/month hosting, $497/month SEO, one monthly invoice. No upfront design fee, no separate retainers, no surprise charges.

The Offer

Three things, one monthly invoice, no upfront fee.

We bundle the website, the hosting, and the SEO program into a single monthly cost. The website itself is free, our margin is on the ongoing SEO retainer, so the design fee disappears.

Worth $1,500–$3,000 anywhere else

Custom design (no template), mobile-first, fast to load. Five pages: home, about, services, contact, and one more tailored to your business. Need extra pages or service- location architecture later? Easy to add.

Total Monthly Cost

$546/month, all-in

Compare to the typical small-business stack: $1,500–$3,000 upfront for a small-business site, $50–$150 per month for hosting, plus $500–$2,000 per month for SEO. We bundle all three for less than the SEO portion alone at most agencies.

Why The Website Is Free

The economics work for both sides.

Most small businesses get quoted $1,500–$3,000 for a 5-page website, plus a separate SEO retainer that takes months to set up. For a single-location small business, what you actually need is a clean 5-page site and the local SEO signals (GBP, citations, reviews, posts) firing every month.

We solve that by building the 5-page website ourselves, for free, in exchange for the ongoing local SEO program. We get a long-term client; you get a custom site without an upfront design fee.

The $49/month hosting covers our infrastructure cost, SSL, and uptime monitoring on a fast global network. The $497/month Foundations plan runs the local SEO playbook every month, the GBP work, citations, reviews, posts, and reporting that actually move the map pack.

If you outgrow the bundle later (multi-location, deep service-page architecture, schema, technical SEO, link building), we can scope a Growth-tier upgrade. See all three tiers.

At the end of 12 months, the website is yours. Take it elsewhere if you want, or keep us on for the SEO and hosting. Most clients stay because the system keeps compounding.

FAQ

Common questions about the package.

Have one we didn't cover? Ask directly or see our full FAQ.

Why is the website design free?

Because we make our money on the ongoing local SEO program, not the upfront design fee. We get a long-term client; you get a website built specifically to support the SEO work we'll be doing on it. The economics work for both sides.

What's included in the $49/month hosting?

Hosting on a fast global network, SSL certificate, and uptime monitoring. Hosting only — content edits and ongoing changes are handled separately, either as part of the Foundations SEO plan or as ad-hoc work.

What if I cancel the SEO program, do I keep the website?

If you cancel during the first 12 months, the website stays live as long as you continue the $49/month hosting; we don't take it down. After 12 months, you can either keep paying $49/month for hosting or take a copy of the site and host it elsewhere yourself. The work is yours.

How many pages does the website include?

Five pages: home, about, services, contact, and one more tailored to your business (gallery, reviews, FAQ, or whatever fits). Extra pages, service-location architecture, schema markup, and on-page content rewrites aren't part of this bundle, those sit in our Growth or can be added as one-time scope. The 5-page site is enough for most single-location small businesses to convert traffic the local SEO program brings in.

What if I already have a website?

We'll keep your existing site if it's solid and run the SEO program on top of it (the priority on-page fixes in Foundations cover small tweaks each month). If your current site is genuinely holding you back, we can scope a fresh 5-page rebuild as part of the bundle.

How long does the website take to build?

Most 5-page sites launch within 1 to 2 weeks of kickoff. We start the SEO work in parallel (GBP optimization, citation building, review system) so by launch day the foundational SEO signals are already running.

How does this compare to a normal web design quote?

A typical small business website quote sits between $1,500 and $3,000 upfront for a 5-page site, plus $50 to $150 per month for hosting, plus a separate SEO retainer of $500 to $2,000 per month. Our bundle delivers all three for $546 per month total, with no upfront design fee.
