Websites for local businesses that need to look real, not corporate.
I build one fixed brochure-style website package for Maine trades, restaurants, shops, and service businesses. It is $500, includes launch setup, and gives the business a simple admin panel for basic updates.
One simple package for local businesses that need a professional online presence fast.
Clear boundaryBuild, launch, handoff
No custom tiers, no agency retainer, and no ongoing support bundled into the offer.
What’s included
A local-business website package with firm edges.
The point is to keep this easy to understand and easy to buy. Every client gets the same brochure-style structure, the same launch process, and the same clear handoff, without custom quoting or scope drift.
Website build
A brochure-style business website built for phones first and structured around the information local customers actually look for, without custom feature sprawl.
Home, about, contact, privacy, and terms pages
Mobile-friendly layout and contact calls-to-action
Basic local SEO structure
Initial setup
I help connect the domain, point DNS, get hosting configured, enable SSL, and test the live site so it is properly online before handoff.
Launch and domain connection
HTTPS / SSL setup
Final live checks
Self-service admin
A basic, professional admin panel lets the business update core details without turning the site into an open-ended custom editing project.
Hours, phone, address
Promo text or special offers
Selected photos and service text
Who this fits
Built for local businesses that need a clear brochure site.
This works best for Maine companies with no site, an outdated site, or a site that does not clearly show who they are, what they do, and how to contact them.
Good fit
Trades and contractors
Auto, towing, and service businesses
Restaurants, takeout, and small local shops
Owners who want a one-time project
Not a fit
Custom web applications
Advanced booking or membership systems
Open-ended design retainers
Businesses expecting unlimited changes
Process
Simple from first call to handoff.
The process is designed so the business knows exactly what happens, what they need to provide, and where your responsibility ends.
Step 1
Quick discovery
I gather the business details, services, photos, contact info, and any examples of sites they like. This keeps the build focused and fast.
Step 2
Build and review
I design the site, add the real-world business content, and make sure it works cleanly on mobile and desktop before approval.
Step 3
Launch setup
I connect hosting and domain settings, enable SSL, test links and forms, and make sure the live version is working the way it should.
Step 4
Handoff
The business receives the live site, access details, and a simple admin guide. Routine content changes happen inside the admin panel.
Pricing
One brochure package. One price.
The offer is intentionally fixed so the sales conversation stays simple. This is a brochure-style business website with standard pages, launch setup, and handoff for $500.
Fixed package
$500
A clean, professional brochure site for local businesses that want a real website without a long custom project.
Standard brochure page structure
Contact, about, legal, and terms pages included
Initial setup and launch included
Basic admin panel for key business details
What this does not include
This keeps the service easy to sell and easy to deliver.
No custom quoting tiers
No ongoing support plan
No open-ended design revisions after handoff
No custom feature development outside the brochure format
Boundaries
What happens after launch.
This part matters because it keeps the service straightforward for both sides.
Client pays for hosting directly.
Hosting company handles hosting account issues and platform support.
Business uses the admin panel for normal content changes.
Any later custom work is a separate new project, not part of the $500 package.
Do you host the website?
No. I handle the initial setup and launch, but the client owns the hosting account and works with their hosting provider after handoff.
Can the business update hours or phone number?
Yes. The admin area is built specifically for those kinds of edits so the site stays usable without ongoing design support.
What if they ask for something custom?
The offer is intentionally limited to brochure-style websites. If a business wants something outside that format, it falls outside this service.
Legal pages
Privacy and terms live on separate pages.
The standard brochure package includes dedicated legal pages linked in the footer, which follows common website practice for legal and utility links.
Privacy Policy
Explains what information a site may collect, how it is used, and how visitors can contact the business about their data.
