We’ll build your business website in 7 days for $1

Three steps:

1. Tell us about the business in a short questionnaire, in your browser.
2. A designer here draws it and a copywriter here writes it, and the whole website is built in 7 days - words, pictures, SEO and all.
3. You look over a private preview link, ask for changes in writing, and we put it live the same business day.

No templates to wrestle with, no blank screen, no plugins, and nothing on your calendar. People build it for you, and it’s all in writing so you have a record of every word of it. The website itself is $1. The websites page takes the same week apart a day at a time.

Neither. A designer here draws your site around your trade, and a copywriter here writes every word of it from the answers you gave us. There’s no template to choose, no blank page and no editor to get the hang of, and you’re never asked to pick a typeface.

There’s nothing of yours to maintain after it either. We run one platform with no plugins and update it overnight for every site on it, so you never see a version number, a security patch or a message telling you your site is out of date. Changing what is on your site later is up to you: a price, a photograph or a set of opening hours takes a few clicks in your browser, and if you’d rather not touch it at all, send the change over on chat and our team makes it at no extra cost. The people who do the work are named on the about page, and the websites page takes the week apart a day at a time.

Change your mind before it goes live and the dollar comes back in full, for any reason or none, with no forms and nobody asking why. After it’s live you get unlimited edits for the first 30 days, so we keep refining it until it’s right, and you can stop the hosting in any month with no notice period and no exit fee. The refunds and cancellation policy sets out all three in writing.

Almost certainly, and yes. We build for plumbers, salons, attorneys, delis, daycares, physical therapists, bike shops and sailing schools, and the design starts from what your trade has to prove instead of from one template with your logo dropped into it. A carpenter needs photographs of finished work and an estimate request form; a clinic needs practitioners, prices and a booking calendar. The websites page shows what changes between them.

Anywhere in the United States is the same job, because all of it is done in writing: a town in upstate New York, a main street in Des Moines, a unit on an industrial park outside Phoenix. If your town is small enough that almost nobody types its name into Google, getting found in a town nobody searches for is the one to read before you decide what the site should say, and writing a services page that gets inquiries is roughly what our copywriters do with your answers.

Hosting, and everything a website needs sitting inside it: business email on your own name, the SSL certificate, nightly backups, a global CDN so the site is quick wherever it is opened, and a person on chat who fixes things in writing. Every website has to be hosted by someone, and this is that bill: one bill, at hosting prices, with all of that in it rather than spread across a dozen subscriptions. Nothing else is added on top. The web hosting page shows the network underneath it, and business email on your own name explains why the mailbox in it changes how many people write back.

Changes are in there too. A price, a photograph, a set of opening hours: change it yourself in the browser in about a minute, or ask us on chat and we do it, at no extra cost.

Half an hour, and whatever you already have. The questionnaire asks what you do, where you work, your hours, your services and your prices, and anything you aren’t sure about you can leave blank for us to come back to. You don’t have to write a single word of the website: our copywriters do that from your answers, which is the part most people are dreading.

Photographs help but they don’t hold the build up. Send what is on your phone and we’ll tidy it; send nothing and we use pictures that suit the trade and swap them in later at no cost. Product photographs you can take on a phone gets you a usable set in an afternoon, and how many photos a small business website needs is a shorter list than most owners fear.

Yes, and migration is free. We move your content, domain and mailboxes with zero downtime, and your customers won’t notice a thing. If the old site itself is the problem, a website redesign takes the same seven days for the same dollar, and what a website redesign should fix is a ten-minute read first, so you replace the things that were losing you work and not only the colors.

Whichever suits you that day: after we have built it, changing it is your choice rather than your job. There’s a plain editor in your browser: change text, photographs, prices, products or opening hours in a few clicks, from a laptop or a phone, with nothing technical to learn and no plugins to install. And if you’d rather not touch it at all, send the change over on chat and our team makes it for you at no extra cost. Most builders give you only the first of those and most agencies only the second. The help center has the step-by-step for the parts you want to do yourself.

Up to ten, written by our team from your answers, so none of them is left blank for you to fill in. Most small businesses need fewer than they expect: what you do, who you are, prices or a menu, the proof, and an easy way to get hold of you. The five pages every small business website needs is the short version, and what to put on your homepage, and what to leave off covers the one page everybody overthinks. Pages you want later cost nothing: send them over on chat.

Every website ships with the technical SEO built in: page titles and descriptions written for what people search, headings in the right order, a sitemap submitted, structured data so Google understands what your business is, and pages quick enough not to be dropped. Your Google Business Profile is set up and pointed at the site, which is what decides whether you show up in the map when someone nearby searches for what you do.

None of that is an add-on. It’s in the $1 build and it stays in the hosting after it. If you want to know how the ranking side works, the SEO page explains it, how to get your business on the first page of Google puts timings on it, and the local SEO checklist for tradespeople is the one to work through if most of your work comes from within twenty miles.

The site is indexed within days of going live, and your Google Business Profile can put you in the local map inside a couple of weeks, which is where most inquiries for a local trade come from. Ranking in the ordinary results for the phrases everybody wants takes longer: three to six months for most trades, and anyone promising you next week is selling something.

What moves it fastest is being specific about what you do and where you do it, and collecting reviews while you wait. How to rank for ‘near me’ searches covers the local half, how many Google reviews you need to move the needle puts a number on the other half, and keyword research for people who aren’t marketers is how you work out which phrases are worth the effort in the first place. The SEO page sets out what we do about it every month.

Yes, and for the same reason you wouldn’t run your store out of someone else’s building. A social page can be suspended, buried by a change to the feed, or lost with the account, and almost none of it surfaces when someone searches for what you do near them. Your own site is the address you control, it’s what Google ranks, and it’s where the booking form, the shop and the invoices live. Keep the social accounts by all means: they work harder pointing at something you own. Do I need a website if I have Facebook and Instagram? is the long version, written for owners who already have a busy page.

That’s where most of your visitors already are, so it’s where the design starts. Every site is built mobile first, checked on real handsets, and kept quick enough to open on a bad signal, which matters more than it sounds: why your website is slow, and what it costs you puts numbers on what a slow page loses, and what your site looks like on a bus is a test to run on the way home. Speed and structure are ranking signals as well, so it’s the same work counting twice.

Yes, and it’s switched on from the first day. The calendar takes bookings around the clock inside your own opening hours, with deposits and reminders for the people who don’t turn up. If the inquiries arrive but the bookings don’t, why nobody fills in your booking form is usually the answer.

An SSL certificate on every site, a firewall in front of it, monitoring around the clock and a backup taken every night. Your data is encrypted, the servers sit in United States data centers, and what we promise about uptime is written down in the service level agreement. How we handle what the site collects about your visitors is set out on the privacy policy.

Here it is $1, down from a list price of $1,500. That’s the price of the website, not a deposit on it and not a first installment, and there’s no build fee behind it. Today you pay $1 for the website plus your first month of hosting. After that hosting is $8.99 a month, billed on the same date each month until you cancel, and you can cancel in any month.

The same build is openly sold at $1,500, which is what a US agency charges for a small business site of this size. Website Builder Expert put a designer at $1,000 to $5,000 up front in its December 2025 update, WebFX puts web design at $1,000 to $30,000 or more in 2026, and one US studio that publishes a floor, Jabz Web Design, starts custom builds at $1,000. Ours is the same build at $1, which is a way of saying we’d rather host a business for years than charge it once.

The bill after that is hosting, because every website has to be hosted by someone whoever built it. Bought on its own, hosting buys you hosting and nothing else. Ours carries the SSL certificate, the mailboxes, the nightly backups, a global CDN, the dashboard, the DNS and renewals on your own domain, and a person on chat who fixes things. Cancel any month, with no contract, no notice period and no exit fee.

You do, both. The domain is registered in your name from the first day rather than in ours, and it stays yours whatever happens afterwards. What a domain costs, and who should own it explains why that single line matters more than anything else in a hosting agreement. The words, the photographs and the content are yours as well, and if you ever leave we hand them over and release the domain wherever you want it pointed.

You press cancel in your dashboard and the billing stops at the end of that month. No notice period, nobody to argue with and no exit fee. We hand you your content and release the domain to wherever you want it moved, and if you come back within thirty days we still have your site. If you’d rather someone handled it with you, send us a message and we will.
