before building

You approve the scope first

You receive the scope, setup price, and monthly terms in writing. The standard setup fee is paid after you approve the agreement.

when the site goes live

Monthly care starts at launch

The $55 monthly service starts when the site goes live and continues month to month until you cancel under the agreement.

when you need more

Extra work is approved first

I do not start or bill a larger change, new page, or added feature until you approve the price.

work outside the plan

Some requests are separate projects.

I will tell you when a request falls outside the monthly plan and quote it separately.

  • If you need professional email, Google Workspace setup is $99. Google bills you directly
  • If you need another page or major section, you receive the price before work begins
  • If customers need booking, scheduling, or payment links, the setup is quoted separately
  • If you need substantial writing help, it is quoted according to the amount of work
  • If you need a logo, photography, or full branding, it is referred or quoted separately
  • If you need more than the included monthly update, you approve the extra work first
  • If you leave and want the site moved to a hosting account in your name, migration starts at $350

ending the monthly service

You keep the domain and can take the site.

The domain remains in your account. Once the build is paid for, you may request a copy of the live site and use it elsewhere.

  • Any unpaid balance must be settled before the handoff.
  • You may request a current copy of the live website.
  • If you want help moving it, Contact Setup can create a separate hosting account in your name and transfer the site.
  • A standard transfer starts at $350. Unusual hosting requirements are quoted first.
  • After the transfer, the new hosting is yours to manage unless you arrange a separate support plan.

pricing and service questions

Questions about price, ownership, and support.

Why do you not use WordPress?

I build lightweight custom sites instead. That means there is no theme, plugin stack, or page-builder dashboard for you to maintain.

Can I edit the website myself?

The standard plan does not include a self-editing dashboard. Send routine changes directly to me. If you need to edit the site yourself, another platform may fit better.

Do I own the domain and website?

Yes. The domain should be registered in your name. Your logo, photos, text, and business information remain yours. Once the build is paid for, you may keep using the finished site.

Can I move the site if I cancel?

Yes. After any balance is paid, you can request a copy of the live site. I can also move it to hosting in your name for a quoted fee.

When do you start work?

I start after you approve the written scope and agreement, pay the setup fee, and provide the material needed for the first version.

What counts as a small monthly update?

A small update is up to 30 minutes of work, such as changing hours, replacing a photo, editing service text, updating a link, or adding a short announcement. Unused time does not roll over.

Is search ranking guaranteed?

No. The website includes sound page structure and basic search metadata, but rankings, traffic, leads, and sales are not guaranteed. Larger SEO work is a separate service.

How will Contact Setup text me?

Text messages are sent only after consent or as a direct reply to an inquiry. Messages may concern consultations, requested services, project updates, forms, approvals, billing, or support. Reply STOP to opt out or HELP for assistance.
