Pricing

We publish our rates because we believe in pricing transparency. Every project is unique, so we always have a conversation and give you a clear, specific number before any work begins.

Web Design & Hosting

What a website costs.

A one-time design fee to build your site, then a simple monthly fee to host it. See full web design details →

Building your site One-time design fee

Project typeStarting price
Simple one-page siteFrom $500
Most small business or nonprofit sitesFrom $1,200
Larger or more complex projectsQuoted after consultation

No surprises. Once we understand your scope, we give you a clear, specific estimate before any work begins — and we don't move off that number without talking to you first.

Hosting your site Ongoing monthly fee

After your site launches, you have two options:

Hosting only

from $20/month

Maintenance, updates, and content changes are available at $100/hour as needed — pay only for what you use.

Hosting + maintenance

from $200/month

For organizations that want to hand off the upkeep entirely. Maintenance plans include:

  • One domain name
  • Security monitoring and updates
  • Plugin and software updates
  • Site backups
  • Up to 3 hours/month of content changes included
  • Additional support as needed at $50/hour

Nonprofit organizations and small, rural businesses receive discounted rates on both design fees and monthly hosting — see discounted pricing below.

Professional Email

Email at your own domain.

Choose how much support you want — set it up yourself, or hand the whole thing to us. See full professional email details →

Path 1 — We set it up. You run it.

A clean start, then we hand you the keys.

We handle domain verification, DNS, security, and account creation so you start with a correctly configured setup. After that, you're the admin.

Setup Billed hourly — typically 2–3 hours
$100/hour
Ongoing support As needed
$100/hour

Path 2 — We manage it for you.

Professional email, without the admin work.

We stay on as your email administrator — managing your account, adding and removing users, and handling any technical issues. Includes two hours per month of support.

Standard + Google Workspace subscription
$50/mo
For existing maintenance clients & nonprofits + Google Workspace subscription
$25/mo
Additional support As needed
$50/hour

Google Workspace is billed directly by Google, separately from our fees — plans typically start around $7/user/month for small teams.

Tech Consulting

Straight answers, billed by the hour.

No minimums. If your question takes 30 minutes to address, that's what you pay. See full tech consulting details →

RatePrice
Standard$100/hour
For existing maintenance clients, nonprofits & small, rural businesses$50/hour

We'll always give you a realistic sense of scope before we start. If your question has a short answer, we'll give you the short answer.

Digital Marketing

Priced to fit the project.

Marketing pricing is more individual than our other services — because the right scope looks different from one business to the next. We price our marketing work three ways. See full digital marketing details →

  • Hourly — for clients with a specific task or question, or who want occasional help without an ongoing commitment
  • Monthly retainer — for clients who want consistent, ongoing support with a predictable cost
  • Project-based — for defined scopes like a directory audit, a campaign setup, or a profile buildout

We'll tell you which structure makes sense after we understand what you need — and we'll give you a clear number before any work begins.

Special pricing

Discounted rates for some organizations.

Mission-driven organizations, small rural businesses, and independent authors get pricing built for what they actually work with.
