No upfront cost
Your website built first,
paid for once it’s live.
You pay nothing to get started. Your first payment comes once the site’s live and you’ve approved it. Then it’s from $49 a month, plus your own domain name (about $20–$50).
$0 upfront · From $49/month · Usually live within 7 days
Agency builds commonly cost $3,000–$10,000 upfront, and you often pay before you’ve seen a thing. Hosting and changes can be extra on top.
We do it the other way round. There’s no set-up fee and no deposit. We build the whole thing, you look at it, and the monthly only starts once it’s live and you’ve approved it. If you don’t like it and we can’t fix it, you walk away owing nothing.
What $0 upfront actually means
You see the site
before you pay a cent.
Nothing to pay to start
No deposit and no set-up fee. We build it before any money changes hands.
You approve it first
The site goes up on a preview link. You check it on your phone, and we fix what you want fixed.
Walk away if it’s not right
If we can’t get it right, you don’t take it and you owe us nothing.
The obvious question
Here’s the catch,
in plain English.
The website itself stays with us while you’re on the plan. If you’d rather own it, you can buy it out and we’ll quote you. Or have one built to own outright from day one by Fusco Studio (opens in a new tab), the design studio we also run.
Your domain, words, photos and logo are always yours, and they go with you if you leave.
If you stop paying, the site comes down. There’s no minimum term and no exit fee, just a month’s notice to cancel.
It’s all written down in our terms. You can also open the example sites to see what you’d get, and check what agencies usually charge to compare.

Questions
What people ask
about the $0 bit.
Do I really pay nothing to start?
Yes. There’s no deposit or set-up fee. We build the site, you look at it on a preview link, and the first monthly payment only happens once it’s live and you’ve approved it.
What if I don’t like it?
Tell us and we’ll fix it. If we can’t get it right, don’t take it. You haven’t paid anything and you don’t owe us a cent.
Am I locked into a contract?
No. There’s no minimum term and no exit fee. Give us a month’s notice whenever you like.
What happens if I stop paying?
The site comes down. You keep your domain, your words, your photos and your logo. Tell us before you go and we’ll help with the handover. If you want to keep the site itself, you can buy it out.
What does the price cover?
$49 a month covers the build, hosting, the padlock in the browser, basic search set-up (we can’t promise rankings), your enquiry form and one change a month. Extra changes are $15 each. The one thing on top is the web address: usually $20–$50, bought in your name so you own it.
Why is it so much cheaper than an agency upfront?
We’re two people working online, so there are no offices or account managers to pay for. And you pay monthly instead of in one lump at the start.
