Monthly Websites
We build your website.
Then we run it for you.
One monthly fee. We design your site, write it, code it, host it, update it whenever you ask, and keep it ranking on Google. Plans start at $297 a month and the build costs you nothing upfront.
The deal
Here’s how it works, in plain words
The usual way to get a website goes like this. An agency quotes you $5,000 to $15,000. You pay, you wait, you launch, they leave. Six months later the site is out of date, every small change costs $150 an hour, and nobody at your company remembers the hosting login.
We flipped it. You pay nothing to get the site built. Instead, you pay one flat monthly fee, and for that fee you get a web team on call. We design it, write it, code it by hand, host it, secure it, and change it whenever you ask, for as long as you stay.
Prices changed? Email us, it’s updated. New service? There’s a page for it this week. Running an offer? The landing page is live before the ads are. You never touch a page builder and you never see an hourly invoice.
And when the site starts producing enquiries, the plans above it make sure none get lost: a CRM that logs every caller and texts back missed calls at $497, and AI that answers, books, and follows up around the clock at $997.
What the fee covers
One fee covers the whole job
Design, build, hosting, security, updates, and SEO in one number. Keep paying it and the website keeps working. That’s the entire arrangement.
Design and build, included
A designer and a developer build your site from scratch around your brand and your customers. Custom code, not a WordPress theme or a template with your logo dropped in. You approve the full design before anything goes live.
Unlimited updates, done for you
New pages, price changes, team photos, seasonal offers. Send the request and we ship it, usually within two working days. No hourly rates, ever.
Hosting, SSL, and security
Enterprise cloud hosting, a global CDN, automatic SSL, daily backups, and monitoring. If something breaks at 2am, that is our problem, not yours.
On-page SEO on every page
Titles, meta descriptions, structured data, internal links, and page speed handled on every page we publish. Your site is built to rank from day one.
A CRM that catches every lead
On Website + CRM, every call, text, and form fill lands in one place. Miss a call and the caller gets a text back before they dial your competitor.
AI running the front desk
On Website + AI, an AI receptionist answers enquiries and books appointments around the clock, and custom AI agents take on the repetitive work behind the scenes.
A worked example
Say you run a roofing company
Swap in dental clinic, law firm, or real estate brokerage. The process is the same, only the homework changes.
The call, then the homework
Fifteen minutes on the phone. What jobs make you the most money, which ones you wish the phone rang for more, what your busiest competitor is doing that annoys you. Then we do the homework: we pull apart the ten roofing sites ranking above you and map every search a real customer in your area types.
You see the design
A full design of your homepage and key pages lands in your inbox. Real copy, your photos or shoots we brief, your reviews pulled in. You tell us what feels wrong. We revise until you would happily put it on the side of your truck.
Build, test, launch
We code the site, wire up the forms and call tracking, test it on every screen size, and send you a private staging link. You click around, sign it off, and we point your domain. Under a minute of downtime, usually none.
The site starts working
You email us: we are running a winter gutter clearing offer. Two days later a landing page is live and your Google Business profile points at it. Prices change, crew photos update, a new service area page ships each month. Your only job is forwarding us things.
The pages we’d build for that roofing company
- Home, built around your single most profitable service
- One page per service: replacement, repair, storm damage, gutters
- One page per suburb or area you want to win
- A reviews page fed by your real Google reviews
- A photo gallery of finished jobs, organised by service
- Financing, FAQs, about the crew, and a contact page with click-to-call
Every page is written around one search a real customer types. That’s what on-page SEO means here: not a plugin, a plan.
What it could look like
Three businesses, three very different sites
Custom means the site is shaped by how your customers buy, not by whichever template was closest. Here’s the same monthly fee expressed three different ways.
Law firm: Serious, quiet, credible
Practice areas above the fold, attorney profiles with real photos, case results, and a consultation booking form on every page. Typography does the talking.
Dental clinic: Clean, warm, bookable
A treatment menu with honest pricing, before and after galleries, and online booking tied straight into your calendar. On CRM plans, every enquiry becomes a patient record automatically.
Roofing company: Bold, fast, phone-first
Click-to-call in the header and after every section, photo proof of finished jobs, a service area map, and pages built for the exact searches homeowners type after a storm.
These are sketches, your site gets the full treatment. Browse the real builds in our work to see the finish quality.
The three plans, explained properly
Start with the website. Add muscle when you’re ready.
Website
The full website, built and run.
This is the plan most businesses start on. We design and build your site from scratch, host it on enterprise cloud infrastructure, and keep it updated for as long as you stay. There is no build invoice. Your first month is the whole upfront cost.
Unlimited updates means exactly that. A new page for a service you just added, updated pricing, this month's offer, a staff change. Email it over and it ships, usually inside two working days. Every page we publish carries proper on-page SEO: titles, descriptions, structured data, internal links, and page speed that Google rewards.
Each month you get a plain-English report. Visitors, top pages, where enquiries came from. Numbers you can read in two minutes, not a dashboard you need training for.
Website + CRM
The website, plus the system that catches every lead it produces.
A good website makes your phone ring. This plan makes sure nothing that rings gets lost. Every call, text, form fill, and email lands in one CRM, logged against the customer it came from. Your whole history with every client, in one place your team can actually use.
The headline feature is missed call text back. You are on a roof, in surgery, in court. The call goes unanswered, and within seconds the caller gets a text: sorry we missed you, how can we help? That single automation keeps the conversation with you instead of the next result on Google, and for most clients it pays for the plan on its own.
You also get a sales pipeline with follow-up reminders, a booking calendar customers can use directly from the site, and a shared inbox so a quote request never dies in someone's personal phone.
Website + AI
Everything above, plus AI working across the whole business.
This is for businesses ready to hand the repetitive work to machines. An AI receptionist answers enquiries on your website and your phone line around the clock, answers real questions about your services, and books appointments straight into your calendar. Every lead gets followed up automatically until they book or say stop.
Beyond the front desk, we build custom AI agents for the jobs that eat your admin hours: drafting quotes, chasing reviews after every completed job, appointment reminders that actually reduce no-shows, summarising your week's enquiries every Friday.
Unlimited AI business management means we keep building. Each quarter you sit down with a strategist, look at what is working, and pick the next system to automate. When one agent is live and earning its keep, we start on the next.

Who this is for
Built for high ticket businesses
When one new client is worth thousands, a website that misses calls and buries enquiries costs far more than any plan on this page. These are the industries where the plan pays for itself fastest.
FAQ
Common questions
Who owns the website?
Your domain, your content, your photos, and your customer data are yours from day one, and they leave with you if you ever go. The design and code stay ours while you're on a plan, which is exactly why we can afford to build the site without charging you five figures upfront. Want to own it outright later? Ask us for a buyout figure at any point.
What does an unlimited update actually cover?
Content edits, new pages, image swaps, price changes, seasonal offers, landing pages for a campaign, layout adjustments. If it is your website being kept current and effective, it is covered. A full rebrand or an entirely new web application is a separate conversation, and we will always tell you before anything would cost extra.
Is there a setup fee or a long contract?
No setup fee and no build invoice. You pay your first month and we start designing. The plan renews monthly.
What happens if I cancel?
The site comes down at the end of your final paid month. Your domain, your content, and your data come with you, and on CRM plans we hand over a full export of your contacts and conversation history. No exit fees, no retention calls.
What is missed call text back?
When you can't answer the phone, the caller instantly gets a text: sorry we missed you, how can we help? Most missed calls to a business never call back, they just ring the next result on Google. That one automatic text keeps the conversation, and usually the job, with you.
What does "unlimited AI business management" mean in practice?
On Website + AI we build and run AI systems across your business, not just the website. An AI receptionist that answers and books around the clock, automatic follow-up on every lead, and custom agents for jobs like quoting, review requests, and appointment reminders. Unlimited means we keep building: when one system is live and working, we move to the next one on your roadmap.
How is this different from Wix, Squarespace, or a WordPress theme?
Those are tools, this is a team. Every site we build is custom coded, no themes, no page builders, no plugin stack to break. A DIY builder also leaves you doing the design, the copy, the SEO, and every update, forever. Here a designer builds the site, we handle every change, and on higher plans your leads and follow-up are handled too. You run the business, the website just works.
Can I change plans later?
Yes, upgrade or downgrade whenever you like. Move up to Website + CRM and we connect your number and calendar the same week. Most clients start on Website and upgrade once they see the enquiries coming in.
