Pricing
Website pricing, on the page.
Three plans, every line side by side, and a written quote before you commit. Half up front, half when it's live — and you see the finished site before the second half.

What the monthly covers
Everything it takes to keep your site working.
Most people never see this part, which is why a monthly can look like money for nothing. Here's what it is.
- HostingThe site stays online and loads fast.
- Your domain and security certificate kept currentThat's the padlock in the browser. It never lapses.
- Security and software updatesDone for you, on my time, not yours.
- BackupsA copy of your site is always kept.
- Watching that the site is upAnd fixing it if something breaks.
- Your changesNew hours, photos, prices, services — email me an update request and it's done.
- Me answering your email and phoneThe person who built it is the person who replies.
In writing
Two promises, not a pitch.
A one-person shop should tell you exactly what happens when you need it. These are in the terms you sign.
Response times
If your site is down or broken, I'm working on it the same business day. Changes you ask for (hours, photos, prices, a new service) are done within 2 business days.
Keys to your site
Your domain and your hosting account are in your name from day one, with me added as a manager. You also get a one-page handover sheet: where everything lives and how any developer takes over. Nothing is locked to me.
How this compares
Me, a DIY builder, or an agency.
A fair side-by-side of the three usual ways a local business gets a website. The other two columns describe what's typical, not any one company.
| Question | Hall Dev Work | DIY site builder | Typical agency |
|---|---|---|---|
| Who builds it | Me, by hand | You, from a template | A team you may not meet |
| Price shown up front | Yes, on this page | Yes, plus your time | Usually after a sales call |
| Who you call when it breaks | Me, worked on the same business day | Their support line | An account manager or a ticket |
| Who owns the domain and hosting | You, from day one | You | Varies; often the agency |
| Local SEO setup | In every build | Up to you | Often an extra line item |
| Your changes | Covered, within 2 business days | You make them | Often billed by the hour |
| See it before you commit | Free mockup first | Free trial | Usually after a deposit |
Straight answers
What happens if…
If you don't like it before launch
Tell me what's wrong and I keep working on it. If we can't get there, you don't pay the second half and we part ways.
If you want to leave
After the 6-month minimum, say so by email. Your domain and your content are yours, and I hand over the whole site.
If something breaks
I'm on it the same business day. It's covered by the monthly, and a site that's down jumps the queue.

Common questions
About the money.
How does the quote work?
Use the quote builder to pick a plan and what you need — it shows a ballpark right away. Send it, and I'll reply by email with a firm quote in writing. The written quote is the price you pay.
What do I pay, and when?
Half of the build price up front and the other half when the site is live — and you see the finished site before the second half. The monthly is a flat amount for your plan.
Is there a contract?
The monthly has a 6-month minimum from the day your site goes live. After that it's month to month. It's all in your written quote before you sign anything.
Why is there a monthly fee?
It's what keeps the site working: hosting, your domain and the padlock, updates, backups, and someone watching that it's up. It also covers your changes and me answering your email and phone.
Is the monthly worth it?
That's your call, and the 6-month minimum is short on purpose so you can find out. What you're paying for is not having to think about the site: when something needs changing or breaks, you text one person and it gets handled. If you'd rather run it yourself after the minimum, I hand everything over.
How do I ask for changes once my site is live?
Send an update request or email me at david@halldevwork.com. New hours, new photos, a new service — it's covered by the monthly, and you have it in writing. You never log in to anything.
What's the difference between the SEO in every build and the SEO add-on?
Every build is set up right for Google on launch day: keyword research, a page for every service, and your Business Profile connected. The ongoing SEO add-on ($250/mo) keeps working on it after launch — monthly posts, review requests, a new page each month, and a report. Neither one comes with a ranking promise; nobody controls Google.
How long does it take?
Two weeks from the start to a live site for Starter and Standard. Custom timelines are set when we talk. See the day-by-day timeline.
Which plan do I need?
If you work for yourself and need up to 5 pages, Starter. Most businesses fit Standard. If you have more than one location, or need online booking or inventory, that's Custom. Send a quote request and I'll tell you straight which one fits — including if it's the cheaper one.
