These are typical prices, not fixed ones. Every job is different, so yours could come in higher or lower depending on what you need. You'll know your real price before I start.

Ongoing

Monthly upkeep~$260/moUp to 4 hours a month. I keep your text, photos, show dates and products up to date, fix broken links and anything that stops working, and check the site each month so problems get caught early. Anything over 4 hours is billed at $65/hr, and you can cancel anytime.~4 hrs/mo

A "fix" only means a site that's already built and working. If the site is still the template with your name on it, it gets priced as a build. Every job starts with a free look and a quote, and the price is set before I start.

Your site is yours. I never gatekeep.

A lot of web shops have a business model you never signed up for: build your site, keep the keys, and charge you every time you want to change a phone number. Your own website ends up held hostage, and "just a quick update" turns into an invoice and a two-week wait. I don't play that game. You get every login, password, file and account for your site, and I'll show you how it all works. If you ever want to do it yourself, or hire someone else, you can walk away with everything. I'd rather you come back because I did good work, not because you're locked in.
