$0 down, $150/month for professional hand-coded websites. All-inclusive pricing with hosting, updates, and support included.
While both options deliver the same exceptional website, monthly payments provide significant advantages for most Maine businesses.
Keep $2,495 in your bank account for inventory, marketing, or emergencies. Starting a business is expensive enough—why tie up capital in a website when you can spread it over 12 manageable payments?
Unlimited updates, edits, and content changes throughout your 12-month term. Want to change your menu weekly? Update seasonal hours? Add new services? It's all included—no hourly billing or support tickets.
Our success is tied to yours. We don't just build your site and disappear—we're your long-term partner. You get direct access to your developer, priority support, and proactive suggestions to improve performance.
After your initial year, continue month-to-month or cancel with 30 days notice. No long-term lock-in, no buyout fees. Most clients stay because they value the ongoing support and peace of mind.
Maine's seasonal economy means cash flow fluctuates. A $150 monthly payment is easier to budget year-round than a $2,495 hit during your slow season.
Total First Year: $1,800 • 12-Month Commitment Required
Full ownership of the code and design from day one. Transfer to another host anytime, modify the code yourself, or hire another developer—complete control is yours.
Pay once, keep it forever. No monthly billing, no contracts, no ongoing obligations. After launch, the website is entirely yours to manage or maintain independently.
After launch, all changes, updates, and edits are billed hourly at $150/hour (1-hour minimum). Adding a new page, updating photos, or changing business hours? Each request generates a separate invoice.
You're responsible for finding and paying for hosting ($30/month), maintaining security updates, managing backups, and troubleshooting server issues. Technical expertise required.
After the initial 30-day warranty period, you're on your own. Site goes down at 2 AM? Emergency support is $250/hour with a 2-hour minimum. Need help updating content? That's billable too.
Over 3 years, expect to pay $3,500-$5,000 total ($2,495 + hosting + maintenance + updates) versus $5,400 for monthly plan with unlimited support. You also absorb all technical risk.
