A right-sized first step

You do not need a huge site to look professional.

A Website Starter site shown responsively across desktop, tablet and phone
Fig. 01 One focused page, built for the phone first.

A focused one-page site gives a visitor everything they need to trust you: who you are, what you offer, proof of your work, and a clear way to reach you. Starting here means your website stops waiting on you, whether the next step is a purchase, a booking or a call.

  1. 01

    Hero

    Who you are and what you offer, understood in a few seconds.

  2. 02

    Trust

    Social proof and real photos of your work.

  3. 03

    Services or products

    What you can do for the person reading, laid out plainly.

  4. 04

    Portfolio

    Proof, whether that is finished pieces or completed jobs.

  5. 05

    Contact

    A clear next step: a form, a booking link, a phone number or an email.

“Working with Marie has been one of the best investments I’ve made for my business. From our very first conversation, she communicated with me every step of the way and made the entire process feel easy and manageable. Marie was incredibly patient when explaining things I didn’t understand and was always responsive whenever I had a question. The finished website is professional, easy to navigate, and visually stunning. It truly feels like my brand and represents my business in a way I’m proud to share.”

“She helped me with all of my website needs as well as my Etsy page, stickers, business cards, ECT. Any time I had a question and is was a BUNCH she was so helpful and never made me feel like I was asking a dumb question. She took the time to explain what was going on and how to do things. She was so patient with me when I needed to learn how to upload items to my shop. She always went the extra mile. If I could give a million stars I would because 5 stars is just not enough! If you are in need of help with your business you have come to the right place..”

FAQ

Before you reach out.

Is this a template website?

No, it is designed and built from scratch around your branding, content, colors and images.

Can I add more pages?

The Starter itself is one page, but you can add extra pages individually for $79 each. Need a full multi-page site from the start? Move into the Complete Website & Brand Identity Package instead.

How long will it take?

Delivered within 5 business days of your completed intake, guaranteed, or your revision round is free.

What if I need a small edit after it’s live?

Your first 30 days of small text or photo edits are free. After that, it is $25 per edit or $15 a month for up to two, and you never have to touch the code yourself.

Can you write my website copy?

Not included in the Starter. You provide the copy. Ask about copywriting separately if you would like help with it.

Can I sell products through this website?

Not with the Starter. It is static HTML, not a store. If you need e-commerce, the Complete Website & Brand Identity Package sets you up on Shopify instead.

Can I take bookings or quote requests through this website?

Yes. A service business’s Starter can connect to a booking tool, quote form or your phone number directly, the same way a bigger custom-coded build would.

What do I need to provide?

Your logo, brand colors and fonts if you have them, business info, photos, copy, contact details, social links and your call to action.

How many revisions are included?

One round, made after you review your preview.

Where does the site live?

You get static files you can host on your own domain, GitHub Pages, Netlify, or wherever you prefer, no ongoing platform fee required.

Can I upgrade later?

Yes. Upgrade to the $1,497 Complete Website & Brand Identity Package within 6 months of your Starter purchase and $100 of what you paid is credited toward it.

I only need help with Pinterest, not a website, is that here too?

Start with the $197 Pinterest SEO Audit instead, a full account audit and a ranked 30-day plan.

Start here

Your business deserves a professional home online.

Even if you are not ready for a four-figure website yet, you can have a professional, mobile-friendly site customized to your brand, live in days.
