Websites and business tools
Starter websites for local and service businesses, with optional managed hosting, ongoing updates, and custom tools when booking, customers, jobs, or content need a better home.

Websites, care, and tools
The $500 starter site gives the business a credible public home. Managed hosting, content updates, customer follow-up, booking, and private dashboards can be added when the next step is clear.
Starter website
A clean public website for a business that needs to look credible, explain the service, and give customers a clear way to call, book, or request a quote.
Current work
The best first step is often a strong public website. From there, the same business can grow into managed hosting, content editing, booking, customer follow-up, or a private dashboard when the daily work justifies it.
A real small-business site for a Land O' Lakes handyman service: clear positioning, service details, local proof, reviews, service area, and fast call or estimate paths.
A public demo of a service-business CRM for owner-operators who need jobs, customers, scheduling, invoices, reminders, and history in one practical workspace.
Process
The first step is usually the public website. If the business needs hosting, care, or a custom tool, the next step is scoped clearly before anything gets built.
You send the essentials: what you do, where you serve, how customers reach you, and where the current day-to-day process feels messy.
We choose the website sections, contact or booking path, hosting setup, and any custom tool that clearly belongs in the first phase.
I design and build the site or tool, then send a working preview for review.
We publish, handle setup, and decide whether ongoing hosting, updates, or support make sense.
Pricing
The starter site has a simple public price. Hosting, care, CMS work, booking flows, and private dashboards are reviewed and quoted based on what the business actually needs.
Website starter
One-time build
A clean site for a small business that needs trust, clear service messaging, and a direct call, booking, or request path, without creating a new monthly hosting bill.
Managed care
Optional care
For business owners who would rather have the technical setup, forms, updates, and small changes handled instead of managing another platform.
Custom tools
Scoped first
Custom tools for service businesses that need customer notes, appointments, job history, content editing, reminders, or CRM-style follow-up without adopting software built around enterprise sales teams.
FAQ
A few practical details about timelines, ownership, hosting, custom tools, and scope.
Most starter websites can be built and launched within two weeks once the content and scope are clear. The timeline depends mostly on how quickly the business details, photos, and feedback come together.
Yes. The starter website is still the main entry point for businesses that need a credible public site. More pages, managed hosting, custom CMS features, booking flows, and private tools are scoped separately when they are actually needed.
No. The $500 offer is for a clean public website. Custom tools such as customer records, scheduling, booking, job tracking, private dashboards, or content management are quoted after a short review of how the business works.
Good fits are practical business workflows: TradesDesk-style service-business CRM, booking intake, handyman job notes, customer history, service records, invoice status, appointment requests, content editing, and follow-up reminders. Large marketplaces, complex ecommerce, staff permission systems, and enterprise platforms are outside the offer.
You buy and control the domain; I never register client domains in my name. For hosted sites or custom tools, your business data stays yours, exports and backups are available on request, and payments are handled through third-party processors. I do not sell client data.
Yes. After the included 30 days of cleanup, ongoing care can cover routine updates, photo swaps, service changes, hosting help, form support, and small improvements. The exact support setup depends on the site and the level of help the business wants.
