Five pages, no fuss

Starter Five

Up to five pages on two layouts from the kit, your content placed, one form tested, launched on your own accounts.

The shape of it

Price
$990 plus GST, fixed
Timing
Typically live inside ten business days of a complete brief, subject to a capacity check
Suits
A small business with its content already written that wants a proper five page site without a project.

Paying accepts the terms of service, version 1.0. They cover what is supplied, what is needed from you, how a change is quoted and how a refund works. The version in force on the day you pay is the one that governs the job.

Included

What is in the price

  • Up to 5 public pages built on up to 2 layouts from the kit
  • Your supplied copy and images placed, not rewritten
  • One enquiry form, submitted and received for real before launch
  • The full technical baseline: canonical URLs, sitemap, robots, real 404, approved metadata and matching structured data
  • Deployed to your own repository, hosting and domain, in your name
  • One consolidated round of changes inside 48 hours
  • 14 calendar days of in-scope defect cover after launch
  • A short recorded handover you can rewatch

Four hours of delivery, and the whole price depends on that. One approver, finished content, and accounts you already control. Miss any of those and the quote escalates, with the item that caused it named on screen rather than discovered on an invoice.

Not included

What is deliberately outside it

Each of these is real work. It is quoted separately so the fixed price stays fixed.

  • A discovery call. The brief is a structured form
  • Copywriting, editing or content shaping
  • Image sourcing, editing or photography
  • Custom design beyond choosing from the kit
  • Migration from an existing site beyond five known redirects
  • Creating accounts for you. Express connects to a domain and hosting you already control, and sets up nothing new
  • Analytics and tracking, a CMS, bookings, CRM, social or email capture
  • Training sessions and a second revision round

Why each exclusion is there

Step one

Pick a kit, and the design conversation is finished

This price exists because the design was done once, in advance, and is not done again on your time. There are eight kits, each with its own typefaces, palette and structure, and each with a working demonstration rather than a picture of one.

Every card below is drawn in its own kit, so the typeface and the colours you are looking at are the real ones rather than a description of them. Open any of them to see the whole layout working.

Trades and site work

Ironline

Built to be read on a phone, in the sun, with one hand.

Trades and contractors whose next job starts with a phone call.

Typefaces
Archivo, expanded to 125 and set at 800 with Archivo at its normal width

Beauty, skin and wellness

Bloom

The price list is the page, because that is what people came for.

Studios and practitioners whose customer wants the price and the next free appointment.

Typefaces

Professional practice

Ledger

Credentials above the fold, because that is the only question being asked.

Health and allied health

Clinic

The most readable kit here, and the one that will not print a testimonial.

Practitioners whose patients arrive in discomfort, often on a phone, sometimes not at their best.

Typefaces
Bitter at 500 and 600 with Karla at 400 and 600, one step larger than the other kits

Hospitality and venues

Counter

Hours, address and menu. In that order, on every screen.

Makers and boutique product

Fitness and performance

Typefaces
Anton at 400 with Archivo at 400 and 600

Getting there

How this one runs

Five stages, no meetings. Every one of them exists to keep the hours where they are.

01
Pick and pay
You, ten minutes

Choose a layout from the kit and pay in full before anything starts. There is no discovery call, because an hour on a call is an hour not spent building, and on a job this size there are not many hours to give away.

A structured brief form, sent the moment payment clears.

02
Send the content
You, at your own pace

Copy, images, contact details, opening hours, and written confirmation that every claim on the page is true and that you hold the rights to the images.

A checklist that tells you exactly what is still missing.

03
Built and previewed
Me

Your content placed into the chosen layout, the form wired and tested, the technical baseline applied. Published to a preview address only you and I can see.

A preview link you can open on your own phone.

04
One round
You, inside 48 hours

Send everything you want changed in one message. Corrections and content swaps, not a redesign, and not a second opinion from somebody who has not seen the brief.

The changes made, and a note of anything that falls outside the round.

05
Live, and yours
Me, with your go-ahead

DNS pointed, certificate confirmed, the form submitted and received for real, and the rollback point recorded before anything moves.

A release record and a short recorded handover you can watch again.

Ownership

Nothing is ever held in my name

Express connects to a domain and hosting you already control, and creates nothing new. I am invited in, I build, and I can be removed in a minute. If you do not have those accounts yet, that is a Marketing Foundation module and the quote will say so.

The full ownership register

Start one

$990 plus GST, fixed, paid once, and the brief arrives the moment it clears. If your job turns out not to fit the shape, you are told before any money changes hands.
