Websites I build

Three real sites. Click into any of them.

Three real builds, one for each kind of business. Click through and poke around — they're live, not pictures. Open them on your phone too, because that's where your customers will see yours.

Reviews first

The Local

Reviews and years in business up front. Best when word of mouth is already doing the work and people just need to see it.

Down to Business

Phone number and services before you scroll. For customers who already know what they need and just want to reach somebody.

Straight up: these three are demonstration builds, not clients — Barnraiser is new and I'm not going to pretend otherwise. The businesses in them aren't real. The work is.

Included, every site

What you get

  • No setup fee
  • No contract
  • Your price never rises
  • A change a month included
  • You own your domain

One price covers all of it. There's no better tier you're missing out on, and nothing gets added to your bill later.

  • A real websiteYour services, your service area, your photos, your colors. I start from a layout built for small service businesses and tailor the rest to you.
  • Works on a phoneMost people will find you on a phone standing in their yard. It's built for that first.
  • Found on GoogleSet up so a search for your trade and your town turns you up, wherever that town is. No promises about being first — just done properly.
  • Google Business ProfileSet up and cleaned up. For a business with no website, this is usually the biggest source of calls.
  • Tap to callYour number is a button on every screen. One tap, phone rings.
  • Quote requests to your inboxSomebody fills out the form, it lands in your email. No portal to log into.
  • The whole back endDomain, hosting, security certificate, backups, uptime. My problem, not yours.
  • A change a month, includedNew service, new number, new hours, closed for deer season. Send it over and it's done — one change round a month, every month.
How it goes

Three steps. I do the building.

You don't have to know anything about websites — that's the whole point of hiring somebody. Your part is a phone call at the start and a yes or no at the end.

  1. 01

    Tell me about your business

    What you do, what towns you cover, what you want the phone to ring for. Ten minutes on the phone is plenty.

  2. 02

    I build it

    I write it, lay it out in your colors, and put it online. You don't do anything while this happens.

  3. 03

    You look at it and decide

    See the real thing on your own phone before you pay a dime. If it's not right, tell me and I'll change it. If it's not for you, we shake hands and part ways.

The whole price

What it costs

$199Per month
No setup fee

That's the number. Nothing up front, no build charge, no surprise invoice for hosting six months from now. Month to month — if it isn't earning its keep, tell me and we're done.

And it stays $199 — forever

If I raise my price later, it goes up for new customers, not for you. Whatever you sign at is what you pay for as long as you're with me. That's a policy, not a promotion.

One thing costs extra. If you want a one-of-a-kind design built from scratch instead of tailored from my layouts, that's $299 once, then the same $199 a month. Most people don't need it.

Before you ask

Fair questions

The things people want to know before handing a stranger a card number. Short answers, no lawyering.

Who owns the domain name?

You do. I register it and manage it while you're a customer so you never have to think about renewals — but it's your business's name and if you ever leave, I transfer it to you and it costs you nothing.

What if I want to cancel?

No contract, no cancellation fee, no ninety days' notice. Your site stays up through the month you've paid for, and the domain comes with you.

How many changes do I get?

One round of changes a month, included. Text or email what needs updating — new service, price change, new hours, a photo of the truck — and it gets done. Bigger jobs, like adding whole new sections, we'll quote separately so you always know what something costs before it happens.

How fast do you answer?

Same day during the week. Weekends I'll get to it, but I'm not going to promise you an hour on a Sunday and then miss it.

Where I work

Any small town

I'm in small-town Wisconsin, and that's where this started — but a website doesn't care where either of us lives. If you're the only well driller in a county in Montana, or you run a bakery in a town of nine hundred in Iowa, the problem is the same one and so is the fix.

Wherever you are, we'll talk on the phone and text like everybody else does.

Why it's called that

A barn raising

Where I'm from, when somebody needed a barn, the neighbors showed up. One day, one barn, everybody goes home. Nobody hired a firm out of the city.

That's the idea, and it isn't specific to Wisconsin — it's how small towns work everywhere. You're good at tree work or well pumps or fixing small engines. I'm good at this. You shouldn't have to learn hosting and domains and Google listings to get found by somebody four miles down the road who needs you.

Get in touch

Let's talk about it

Call, text, or send a note. No pitch deck, no scheduled discovery call — just tell me what you do and where you're at.

Goes straight to my inbox. I'll get back to you the same day.
