A website for local businesses
A free website for your business.
I build a simple, fast website for your local business for free. You pay $15 a month to host it, and you can cancel any time.
01 · How it works
Three steps, and you decide at the end.
-
You reply or fill in a short form
Tell me your business name, what you do, and how customers reach you. Replying to my email works, or use the form further down this page.
-
I build your site
I put together a simple, fast website from what you tell me, and send it to you.
-
You review it and decide
Look it over. If you want it, it goes live and hosting is $15 a month. If you don't, there is nothing to pay.
02 · What's included
What you get for $15 a month.
-
The site build
A simple website for your business that works on phones and computers. I charge nothing for building it.

Basic edits on request

05 · Questions
Questions people ask.
Is it really free?
Yes. I don't charge for building your site. You pay $15 a month for hosting, and nothing else is asked for on this page.
Why $15 a month?
That is the price of hosting your site and keeping it online, with basic edits when you ask for them. It is how this works as a business: the build is free and the hosting is the paid part.
Who owns my domain name?
You do. Your domain name is registered in your business's own name, not mine.
Can I leave?
Yes, any time. Tell me by email. Hosting stops at the end of the month you have already paid for, and the site comes offline. Your domain name stays yours, so you can point it at another host.
Do you need my photos?
No. If you have photos you'd like on the site, send them. If you don't, I build the site without them.
How long does it take?
It depends mostly on how quickly I get the details I need from you: your business name, what you do, your hours and how customers reach you. Once I have them, I build the site and send it to you to review.
Can I change things later?
Yes. Basic edits are included. Email me what you'd like changed, such as new hours or a different phone number.
What do I need to send you?
Your business name, what you do, your hours, and how customers should contact you. That is enough to start.
