How much does a website cost?

Your website comes with the Platform plan: $1,000 USD a month ($1,350 CAD), with $0 setup. That covers the custom build, hosting and care, plus the visual editor, booking, analytics and CRM. It's month to month, and if you're not satisfied in the first 30 days, you don't pay.

Do you redesign existing websites?

Yes — most projects are replacements of an underperforming site. We keep your URLs and rankings intact with a full redirect map, so the SEO you've earned carries over to the new build.

No. Every plan is month-to-month and you can cancel anytime. Setup is $0, and if you're not satisfied in your first 30 days, you don't pay.

What happens to my website if I cancel?

The website runs on the SearchPod platform, so it switches off if you cancel, along with the dashboard, forms, CRM and bookings. It can't be moved to another host. Before you go, you can export your leads and contacts (CSV), your bookings history, your analytics and reports, and the words and photos you gave us. Your domain, your Google and Meta ad accounts, your Business Profile and your reviews stay yours. Everything is month to month, so there is no contract to break.

Can I update the site myself after launch?

Yes. Every Platform plan includes a visual editor, so everyday changes like text, photos and prices are simple, and we show you how before launch. Hosting and care are part of the plan as well.

How long does it take to build a website?

It depends on the size of the build. A single landing page is much quicker than a full custom site. Your written proposal includes a timeline, so you know it before work starts. You also review the finished site on a staging link before anything goes live.

Will my new website show up on Google?

Every site ships with the technical groundwork Google looks for — clean code, fast pages, metadata, sitemaps, and schema — built in from day one. That is a strong starting point, but showing up for competitive searches takes ongoing work. Basic SEO comes with every Platform plan, and full SEO is part of the optional Performance plan.

What you get

Deliverables, not just activity.

A free written proposal

Every page, feature and integration listed in plain words, ready within one business day.

A custom design you approve first

Your site is designed from scratch for your brand — never a template — and you sign off on the look before we build anything.

A private staging link

A real, clickable version of your new site you can open on any device and review before it goes live.

A fast, mobile-ready website

Built on Next.js — or Shopify for stores — so pages load quickly on any phone or computer.

An SEO-ready foundation

Clean code, metadata, sitemaps, and schema are built in from day one, so Google can find and understand your site from the start.

A full redirect map on redesigns

If we replace an old site, every old link points to the right new page, so the rankings you earned carry over.

Analytics and tracking set up at launch

You can see your visitors and the actions they take — calls, forms, orders — from the first day the site is live.

Your domain stays yours

Your domain is registered in your name and stays yours. The site runs on the platform while you're a client.

How a build runs, start to finish

Every build starts with a free written proposal, ready within one business day. It lists the pages and the features, and setup is $0.

Design comes first. You approve how the site looks before we build a single page, so there are no surprises later. Then we build it and put it on a private staging link — a real, clickable version of your site you can open on your phone and share with your team.

You only say yes to launch when the site looks right and works right. At launch we handle the technical parts most people worry about: pointing your domain, setting up redirects so old links still work, and connecting analytics so you can see visitors from day one. After launch we check speed and fix anything that slipped.

There is no separate build bill. The site, hosting and care are part of your monthly Platform plan.

How pricing works

Your website is the core of the Platform plan: $1,000 USD a month ($1,350 CAD), with $0 setup. That one fee covers the custom site built to rank, hosting and care, plus the visual editor, online booking, analytics, the CRM with email follow-ups, and the finance tab.

There's no one-time build bill and no contract. It's month to month, and if you're not satisfied in the first 30 days, you pay nothing. Want more growth? The optional Performance plan adds full SEO, ads and content, with a fee based on results.

What happens after launch

A new website is not finished the day it goes live. It just moves from building to growing.

Right after launch we verify the site is fast, that Google can find every page, and that your tracking counts the actions that matter: calls, forms, orders. If we replaced an old site, we watch your traffic to make sure the rankings you earned carried over through the redirects.

After that, hosting, security updates and care are part of your Platform plan, so there is no separate care plan to buy. It is month to month and you can cancel anytime.

Most owners pair a new site with search or ads work, because a fast site converts more of the visitors those services bring in.
