Nobody buys a website. They buy the enquiries it produces, and most small-business website design quietly suppresses them: a theme fighting a page builder fighting three plugins, slow enough to lose buyers on a phone and invisible to the assistants your clients now ask. We build the fast kind, and structure it so a machine quotes you rather than a directory. New builds and redesigns, three sizes, every price published.
What this is worth, and who measured it
+8.4%
A 0.1 second improvement in load speed lifted retail conversion by 8.4% and average order value by 9.2%. Same traffic, same spend, more revenue.
These are findings from published research on the wider market, measured by the people named beside each one. They are not results we are promising you, and we do not have client results of our own to show yet, which we would rather say plainly than dress up.
Three sizes, and what moves the number
$3,000 to $7,500
usually two to three weeks
Compact and sharp. Everything a firm needs to look like the serious one in its market, load instantly, and be readable by the assistants. Nothing padded, and nothing missing.
$7,500 to $18,000
usually four to eight weeks
The full system, with room to grow into. A content engine your team can actually use, and the client-facing paths that turn a visit into a booking rather than an email you have to answer.
from $18,000
quoted after a paid scoping week
Ambitious or genuinely complex. Deep integrations, an application rather than a website, or a migration with real history behind it. We scope it properly so the number is right before either of us commits.
What moves the price
If you are not sure which size you are, the free twenty-minute call will place you within about a thousand dollars, and it costs nothing to find out.
The build, week by week
Week 1
We agree the sitemap, the content plan and the feature list in writing, with a fixed price, before anything is built. If you have existing content we tell you honestly what is worth keeping. If you do not, we say what you need to write and what we can draft for you.
Weeks 2 to 3
Your site in your brand, written rather than assembled. Every page is real HTML on the first request, which is what makes it fast for people and readable for the crawlers that do not run JavaScript, including several of the AI ones that matter. The machine-readability layer goes in as foundation, not as a plugin bolted on afterwards.
Week 3
Enquiry, booking and intake placed where the visitor already is rather than behind a menu. If you are adding an AI receptionist or assistant, this is where it gets wired in. If you serve a local market, the entity layer ships too.
Launch
We deploy to our infrastructure: hosting, SSL, monitoring, backups, nothing for you to run. Your current site stays untouched until switch-over day, and a redirect map built from your real traffic preserves every URL that earns you anything. Then we verify from the outside with the same 24-check scan we publish for free.
Every choice here exists to serve one of two audiences: a person on a phone with a bad connection, or a machine deciding whether to quote you.
Fixed scope and fixed price agreed before we start. The person who sells it is the person who writes it.
Choice 01
A page that assembles itself in the browser is a blank document to a crawler that does not run JavaScript. Server-rendered means the first response already contains the answer, which is why this site ships about three kilobytes of script and still does everything it needs to.
Choice 02
Nothing here ends in "the theme will not allow it". It is written rather than configured, so the second and third things you ask for are as possible as the first.
Choice 03
Nothing switches over until the new one is verified, and the redirect map is built from your actual traffic data so the pages that earn you money keep their equity.
Choice 04
The code is yours and it is not licensed back to you. If you leave, you leave with the system, and we will help you move it.
№ 01
Hand-built, server-rendered, fast, and yours outright. No platform fee and no license.
№ 02
Structured data, llms.txt, crawler access and the answer-first structure that makes you quotable, built in rather than sold separately.
№ 03
Analytics, search performance and AI-crawler activity readable from day one, so you can watch the machines arrive instead of waiting for a report.
№ 04
Hosting, SSL, monitoring and backups run by us. There is nothing here for your team to maintain.
What the build is not:
Usually one of four things, and they are cheap to check before you spend anything. The page does not say what you do in the first screen, so a visitor who is comparing three firms leaves. There is no obvious next step on the pages that matter, so the people who did want to talk had to go looking for a way to do it. It is slow on a phone, which is where most of them are. Or it reads as a brochure about the firm rather than an answer to the question they arrived with. We start by finding which of the four is costing you the most, because fixing the wrong one is expensive and changes nothing.
By treating the enquiry, not the visit, as the thing being bought. Google-commissioned research measured a 0.1 second speed improvement lifting retail conversion by 8.4%, and most small-firm sites are seconds behind rather than tenths, so speed is usually the cheapest win available. After that it is the ordinary work: say what you do above the fold, put a real next step on every money page, and make the pages answer the question the visitor actually typed. None of it is clever. It is just done, and then measured.
Because our overheads are lower, not because the work is. We are a small studio running from Chiang Mai rather than a city office with a sales team, and we pass that on. The build itself is hand-written by a senior engineer, which is more than several of those agencies will be giving you.
Small is compact and sharp: everything a firm needs to look serious, load instantly and be readable by the assistants, with nothing padded out to justify a number. Medium is the full system with room to grow into, a content engine your team can use, and the client-facing paths that turn a visit into a booking. Large is for ambitious or genuinely complex work and we scope it before quoting. We do not sell by page count, because the eighth page is rarely what makes a project bigger.
We structure it, and we will draft it where that helps, but the expertise has to come from you because that is the part that makes it worth quoting. What we will not do is fill your site with generated filler, which is the fastest way to become invisible to the same assistants we are trying to get you into.
They are where we are strongest. Law firm website design and accountancy sites have the same shape: real expertise, a lot of repeatable process, and a site that does neither justice. The pages that win in those categories are the ones that answer a specific question completely, which is exactly what we build for and what the assistants quote.
A redirect map is built from your real traffic data before switch-over, so every URL that earns you anything today lands on its equivalent. The old site stays up and untouched until the new one is verified from the outside.
