How We'll Work
Together
From our first conversation to your site going live (and beyond), here's exactly what to expect. No surprises, no confusion - just a straightforward process.
Free Consultation
We hop on a call to discuss your business in detail. What are your goals? Who are your customers? What specific features do you need? This is a no-pressure conversation where I learn about your business and you learn about how a website can help you grow.
- Discuss your business goals and target customers
- Identify must-have features vs. nice-to-haves
- Review examples of sites you like
- Answer all your questions (no tech jargon, I promise)
Proposal & Agreement
Within 24-48 hours, I'll send you a detailed proposal outlining exactly what I'll build, how long it will take, and the cost. Everything is transparent - we'll discuss the specific functionalities and timeline openly. Once you're happy with everything, we'll sign a simple agreement and kick things off.
- Detailed scope: every page and feature listed
- Transparent pricing discussion - no hidden fees
- Flexible payment options (50% upfront, 50% at launch)
- Timeline with specific milestones
Design & Development
I'll build your site using Next.js and modern technology that makes your site fast and professional. You'll get preview links throughout the process so you can see the work as it progresses and provide feedback. I keep you in the loop every step of the way.
- Modern, mobile-responsive design
- Preview links sent for your feedback
- Revisions based on your input (2-3 rounds included)
- All content integrated (you provide text/images)
Launch & Training
Once you approve the final version, we launch your site to the world! I'll help you set up your domain (you own it, costs about $15/year), configure everything properly, and ensure it all works perfectly. If your site has features you can edit yourself, I'll train you on how to update content.
- Domain setup and SSL certificate (secure https)
- Final testing across all devices
- Training session if you have editable content
- Documentation for common tasks
Analytics Setup
I'll set up analytics on your site so you can track real data: how many people visit, which pages they view, where they come from. You get a simple dashboard with insights that help you understand how your website is performing and make informed decisions about your business.
- Real-time visitor tracking
- Page performance metrics
- Traffic source breakdown (Google, social media, direct)
- Simple dashboard - no complicated setup needed
Ongoing Maintenance (Optional)
Your business will grow and change - your website should too. I offer optional monthly maintenance where I handle hosting, make updates, add new features, and keep everything running smoothly. You can also just reach out when you need something specific. Totally up to you.
- Hosting and security updates included
- Content changes (text, images, menu updates)
- Add new features as your business grows
- Priority email/text support
Transparent Pricing
After our free consultation, we'll have an open discussion about pricing based on your specific needs. No hidden fees, no surprises, no pressure.
Common Questions
Do I need to know anything technical?
Nope! I handle all the tech stuff. If your site has features you can edit (like blog posts), I'll train you - but it's designed to be simple.
What if I need changes after launch?
Minor tweaks in the first 30 days are included. After that, you can either hire me for specific updates or sign up for a monthly maintenance plan where I handle everything.
How long does the whole process take?
From our first call to launch, typically 2-4 weeks depending on complexity and how quickly you can provide content (text, images, etc.).
What if I don't have photos or content ready?
No problem! I can use stock photos temporarily and help guide you on what content you need. We can launch with placeholders and update as you get materials.
Can you add features later as my business grows?
Absolutely! That's the beauty of modern websites. Need to add booking later? E-commerce? A blog? We can add anything as you need it.
Do you offer ongoing maintenance?
Yes! I offer monthly maintenance plans starting at $100/month that include hosting, content updates, security, and adding new features as your business grows.
