Website Design & Build

What a website
actually costs

The honest answer: it depends on what your site needs to do. The intake below turns "it depends" into a real number.

Final pricing is confirmed in a written proposal after intake. Ongoing hosting and upkeep are covered by a care plan (below).

§ 03

Custom, but you still run it

You should not have to choose between "looks like everyone else" and "might get broken."

On site builders like Squarespace and Wix, the editing controls and the design live in the same place, so a busy volunteer can drag a section out of place and quietly break the whole site. We build differently: a custom site with a simple login where you update only the parts that change. News, staff, resources, text. The layout stays locked, so it always looks the way it launched.

The old way

A site-builder subscription

  • A template thousands of others use
  • Anyone with a login can break the design by accident
  • You rent it forever and are your own tech support

Your site

Custom build with tailored editing

  • A design built for you
  • You edit exactly the content we set up, nothing else
  • We host, monitor, and maintain it
§ 04

Good to know

  • Projects start with a signed proposal and a deposit; the balance is tied to milestones.
  • You own your website, your domain, and your content.
  • Every site is built mobile-friendly with search engine basics included.
  • Timelines depend on how quickly content and feedback come back to us.
